Cooties are catching!

Here is an ADORABLE way to do your wedding programs! These brought back memories of school (my friends and I would always make these!). The programs are fully formatted and have the entire interior devoted to your ceremony information. They are divided into four main interior sections. The designer, KatsKrafts, can customize EVERYTHING for you including the font, the design, wording, the outer names/images, etc! There are over 50 paper colors to choose from! KatsKrafts will also make Wedding Menus and Placecards!

Cookies can be a work of art....

I love when I get an email first thing in the morning that is GREAT NEWS! My day started by reading an email that SweetAmbs was back. Who is SweetAmbs, you ask? An amazing pastry artist. I have been wanting to share her works of art on my blog for awhile now, but her etsy store has been on "vacation".  Well...she's back! And you, my lucky readers, are in for a treat! Her cookies are so beautiful and I am so excited to finally be able to share them here....

To see more of Amber's amazing work you can visit her Etsy store or view her blog here!

Big Whoopie!

Maybe you are not a traditional bride....maybe you want a different dress....maybe you don't want traditional favors at your wedding....maybe you don't want a church wedding....maybe you want to be off the grid when saying your vows....I say big whoopie if people don't like what YOU and your significant other find meaningful!


Love the "ruched" skirt and train!





Cookies make the world a little brighter!

Here are some adorable mini cookies I found today - you get 3 dozen (decorated!) mini cookies for $13.00 and you can customize the colors! I bake cookies (too much) so I think that getting something like this for that price is a great deal!



Here is a nice 3" round cookie that can be done in any color and your choice of monogram. Homemade royal icing with vanilla (yummmm!)  and the the cookies are a nice southern soft sugar cookie recipe - made with real butter (oh yeah!). You get 1 dozen cookies (combination of color). You can request them wrapped individually or in a cello bag and tied with coordinating ribbon for $23.99

Sign of the Times

Looking for something a little rustic for your monogram? Look no further! I saw these letters today on Etsy from seller SignsofVintage and loved them! I think they would look amazing hanging on double doors or on a wall at your wedding...and then of course you can use them in your home after! These letters measure a little over 15 inches, so you are sure to get a great photo with them (each of you holding one would be super cute!)


And here is another design from SignsofVintage that I loved. It's actually 2 signs in 1. You get two signs - Bride and Groom (or Mr. and Mrs.) and then on the back it says Thank and You. I love that you can reverse them and customize them!

Pretty as a Peacock!

Tiffany blue has been one of the main colors used in weddings (for ummm...years!). Let's spice up the blue palette! Peacock blue is a deep rich color, that is striking next to white and also ties in perfectly with green! I found so many amazing items...I had a hard time choosing what to share!

Something Special for the Little Girls

Are these not just the most adorable tutu dresses? I really was drawn to the color combos used! I couldn't help but think a flower girl would be really adorable in something like this - and the parents may not mind the price (like they would at some of the price of a typical "flower girl" dress) because this one would get more use (birthday party, dress up play, halloween, etc). Custom colors to match your wedding available! Check out JuJu's TuTu's for more info!
