we're loving...wine tags!

We love these cute and personalized wine tags! These would be perfect for a bottle of wine for holiday hosts...but also as gifts for the wedding party, rehearsal dinner or others. This way you can keep the original wine bottle label intact and also have a customized look & perfect gift.

Love them!

Check them all out at bailey bea's website!

spring colors!...and fun with matching accessories…

Spring 2010 Pantone colors are out! They were released a few weeks ago at fashion week.

Take a look…

These are the colors that the experts say will be big in spring…

See any that you love? Colors you’d use for your wedding?

Also, check out this awesome site to put together the colors for your wedding, Dessy's Pantone Site!

You can explore how colors work together…upload images…and share your ideas and final product with your vendors! It's pretty great...

Dessy is a manufacturer of bridesmaid dresses (cute and stylish ones!) as well as destination gowns, flower girl dresses and more.

{Quilted Tote and Flip Flops from Dessy.com}

They recently released a couple of cute flip flops for only $15. They are must see (and if you buy dresses from there, they could match perfectly, ingenious!)! They also other coordinating accessories such as clutches, totes, & classic pearl jewelry.

Lastly, they have coordinating “doll dresses” for your flower girl. For $25 you can give your flower girl a memorable gift that matches what she will wear on your big day made just for her favorite doll….great idea…

Love it!

What We're Loving Now!

This week has flown by...I can't believe its already Thursday!
We've been working on Megan and JD's wedding this weekend, and have also come across some awesome ideas and items on the web. Here's what we're loving now:

• Cute clutch from Etsy {above}! We think it would be great for bridesmaids or for yourself...fun, classic, great colors, and a bit unexpected. Also love that there is a small pocket on the inside for smaller items. Check them out at AngeeW's shop here.


• Cupcakes! Yes, cupcakes have been around forever, but we're loving these presentations and using them for different events besides the wedding. Both of these first images are from Vanilla Bake Shop in Santa Monica.
  
  

  

  Cupcakes can be a great option and the presentation can be just beautiful!
  
  This {below} is from Pink Cake Box and was designed for a bridal shower. Loving all the sweets--cake, cupckaes and cookies! That's our kind of shower! {Their blog has great ideas! Check out for awesome ideas and designs!}

  


• We've been thinking about table numbers and came upon this via the Southern Weddings Magazine blog {love them!, love southern weddings!}, check it out to start your wheels turning about great table numbers for your wedding!
• Lastly, keeping along the theme of sweets, I came across this company recently...they specialize in renting wedding cakes! That's right...why not save money and rent the tiered wedding cake that you'll cut for that special photo opp and use sheet cakes to serve to guests. They are gorgeous, and not just your traditional cake either. Check out Cake Rental and let me know what you think! {They did the cake in The Hangover movie this summer}

Happy Planning!

Cute Gift Idea!

I'm in love with these new placemats from Bailey Bea Designs and I just had to pass them on. They are so many cute designs! Perhaps a great wedding or housewarming gift for your favorite couple this spring and summer (and maybe a set for you too!)? I think they would be great for an outdoor patio set!

Take a look at the Bailey Bea website.

They also have cute personalized return address stamps and other items. The address stamps are also GREAT gifts!

Beautiful Gifts for Bridesmaids

I’m in love with Sonya Renee jewelry. It’s gorgeous, modern, and feminine, I love it all. I also think it would make perfect bridesmaids gifts or other gifts for special women in your life. There are beautiful monogram neckaces, initial pieces that you can add colored stones to, bracelets, earrings, linen jewelry pouches and more. They also have a unique bridal collection that you should check out. Your best girl friends will forever have a treasured keepsake with this jewelry.
