LIGHT it up!

I have been so busy that wedding planning has kinda taken a backseat for a little bit. However, I am back now and will be planning more. Well, today's post is on CANDLES!

I love candles! I think that candles can add that special, dramatic flare and be an addition for a romantic ambiance in a room or venue. We will mos def have tons of candles. Here are examples that I like how they used candles to LIGHT up a room. This is a very inexpensive way to add extra lighting without paying an arm and a leg for it.

Centerpieces with attitude!

I am so loving these two centerpieces for our tablescapes at the reception. I mean, really? Seriously? Who knew that centerpieces could have 'tude? I am LOVIN' them BOTH! (Sigh) What's a woman to do with such beautiful options? Can you say FIEEEERCE?

Nadri earrings.

Regardless of how I wear my hair, I do know that I want earrings that are elegant and that dangle or drop. These cuties are by NADRI. Nadri can be found at Nordstroms. Nadri has so many beautiful pieces of jewelry that it is hard to decide on just one pair! Which do you like best?
Here is the link to the Nadri jewelry store at Nordstroms: http://shop.nordstrom.com/SR?KeyWord=nadri&searchorigin=KeywordSearch

Be our guest!

Invitations are typically the first impression that your guest will have pertaining to your wedding. An invitation can state whether an event is formal or casual. Trendy or traditional. Chic or eclectic. I have been to and been in a great deal of weddings. Usually the invitations were simple and concise. There is nothing wrong with that. However, I have only gotten one invitation to a wedding that really WOWED me and then another that I just though was very nice and reflected the couple. We want our invitations to set the mood for our wedding. We have gone back and forth over should they be square, rectangular, pocket folds, have enclosures or not have enclosures and if so, what enclosures. I mean really, all of this for invitations? Yep. All of that. We have come across a few companies that make very nice personal invitations in whatever color, paper stock and style we would like. The verdict is still out on this. However, here are some that we really like. The first is my FAV out of the three below. What do you think?
