One of the best places to get inspiration for your wedding is from the real wedding details of recently married brides and grooms. A wedding at home was no easy feat for Allison Ingram and Sunday Yokubaitis, but the pair managed to pull it off with style. "I hired a consultant, but it was still a lot harder than I expected," Allison remembers. "There are a ton of details that were involved." It was just that attention to detail that paid off for this twosome when they celebrated their marriage before 150 guests at the groom's parents' home in Austin. Thinking of having your wedding at home? Get ideas from Allison and Sunday's real wedding.

The Bride: Allison Ingram, 27, retail buyer for a resort and spa
The Groom: Sunday Yokubaitis, 31, attorney

Allison and Sunday, who met through a mutual friend, started planning their nuptials after Sunday proposed during a ski weekend in Tahoe. The couple picked a palette of chocolate brown mixed with coral and orange.
