Happy Halloween

I have to say that I was disappointed that none of my brides this weekend embraced the halloween theme into their wedding!

Recently,  I was talking to a friend about halloween weekend weddings, and we both agreed that if you get married on this weekend you should completely go with the theme! 

How fun would it be to go to a wedding where everyone had to dress in a full blown halloween costume? Ladies always go out and spend money on a new dress, why not go all out on a crazy costume? 

I think that if you choose to get married on a  holiday weekend, you should do your best to incorporate it... have fun with it!

Have a fun & safe Halloween everyone!

Seasonal Wedding Dresses

When dress shopping, you need to factor what season  your wedding will be in. A strapless loose fitting and flowing fabric will look ridiculous in November. Just as a silk & tulle ball gown  looks ridiculous in the July. 

When you're about to "Say Yes To The Dress" make sure you'll look appropriate. 

Wet Sand = Not helpful!

Sand is a popular prop for weddings. 

If you are using sand to hold up place cards, or any sort of paper product 

MAKE SURE IT IS DRY SAND! 

On more than one occasion I have had grooms drop off a bag of sand from Home Depot. 

The bags does state that it is dry sand made for sandboxes, 

but its usually very moist still from packaging. 

Save yourself money and go to the beach and pick up sand that is furthest from the water, dry it out over the weekend just to be safe too! 

If the sand is wet it will ruin your paper products!!

Wishing Tree

This couple chose a new approach to the guest book. 

Guests signed pieces of paper and attached to the branches. 

By the end of the night it was filled with different opinions on love, life and family. 

Very beautiful! 

Neat idea for your envelopes

Buy a large, deep picture frame and fill it with rocks so that the cards can easily stand up. 

Much prettier than a box!

Include your furry friend in your wedding, tastefully

My dog is my life, she's licking the screen of my computer as I write this post!

A neat way to include your furry friend in your wedding day 

is to name your signature drink after them! 

Include the ingredients of your drink on a sign along with your pets name and picture. 

It will definitely get an "awww" effect.

Origami Menu Cards

This bride went on Etsy.com to find the most creative menu card yet! 

Each flap and the options for all 3 courses and their thank you to their guests.

The bottom picture shows the table set for the night, the menu cards are located on the bread & butter plate.

GIANTS fans

This couple loved the GIANTS so much that their uplighting was Red & Blue.
