Week 9 class critique
The class suggested me to change the design for the home page, maybe just use subtle element like ties or patterns of the dresses as the background. For the next class Mauro encourage me to bring a flash piece of how the opening page will move. On the design layout of the wedding sites, the picture could be a little bigger and different from the overall layout.

Start your ceremony with the sound of waves, wearing sandals or bare feet and the shore. Decorate your wedding theme with star fish and shells.
week 4 research on outdoor wedding
Many couples dreaming of an out door wedding never go through with it because they are afraid of the unknowns of planning an out door wedding such as weather. One of the bonuses of an outdoor wedding is the natural beauty around you, lessening your need to decorate. Decorations you may want to consider include an arch or trellis to focus the ceremony and frame the bride and groom as they say their vows; strins of lights or lanterns in the trees; luminaries.
week 3 discussion
This week's class was pretty fun for us. First, we went over our research on the projects. then we went over two exercises about personas and experience map. The persona exercise our group choose was the "Burning Man", so we came up with three personas, the 20 year old Raver, and the Hippy Artist, and the Black Rock Rangers. The Black Rock Rangers, Christ and James, are law enforcement under disguise, they both have formal medical training. They try to make sure the premises is safe.

I also learned to sketch with codes, which means it is always good to experiment with things, even in the end it doesn't work out.
week 3 project research
After a brief research online I found out that actually there are several places an out door wedding can be held, such as:
