Pretty In Pink and Gold!

Two great colors on their own, but even better together. Blush pink and gold makes a great color scheme for your wedding. There are so many beautiful options and ways to decorate using the two that are both elegant and timeless. These are some of our favorite looks.

Modern Centerpieces

Trying to pick the perfect centerpiece for your reception can definitely be a lot harder than one might think. With so many beautiful options it becomes quite difficult to narrow it down to just one, while still choosing something new and unique. Here are some of our favorite fresh and modern looks.

Why Tip Your Vendors?

At the end of the day, everyone wants your big day to be spectacular. But, one of the most special days of your lives together is truly not possible without the attendance of your vendors. Whether it be the caterer, florist or photographer, the work they do and the hours they spend to help execute your dream wedding is critical to its success. They often go above and beyond to accommodate each couple’s needs and tipping is not only a way to show your gratitude, but is a way to express your token of appreciation.

Wedding Trend: Groom Accessories

Traditionally the bride tends to be the center of attention at a wedding. From her dress to her shoes, guests are always talking about her look. But what about the groom? He deserves a little attention as well. Although accessories for the groom are not always the norm they are becoming more and more popular. From unique wedding rings and cufflinks to turban pins and watches there is an array of accessories for grooms to choose from.

Black and White Reception Ideas

We all love pastel colors for weddings, but simple black and white can be very elegant with a dramatic flair. It would be perfect for a black tie wedding reception. Our favorite is black and white with a pop of color to create an unexpected, but delightful twist.
