This genius idea came from Danielle of <a href="http://www.breakfastattoast.com/2011/04/wedding-week-mason-jars-wedding-blog.html">Breakfastattoast</a> blog. I am really supposed to be sharing some fun wedding ideas with you, but I strayed just a bit. You see, when I heard that Mario Testino would be photographing Will and Kate, I was just grinning from ear to ear. I was so happy for him! I feel like I know the guy<img alt="Smile" class="wlEmoticon wlEmoticon-smile" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_jj8N_UQrbmM/Tbo2VpsFlBI/AAAAAAAAB7k/DBE9-sXaGD8/wlEmoticon-smile%5B2%5D.png?imgmax=800" style="border-bottom-style: none; border-left-style: none; border-right-style: none; border-top-style: none;" />. As a result, this post will be somewhat of be an ode to him.  I will be featuring a wedding editorial that he recently did and also a simple hippy wedding that I fell in love with. <br /><br /><div align="center"><span style="background-color: #dd8484;
