I am a graphic designer who loves all things crafty. I am a girl who loves design, crafts and decorating! I currently spend all of my time either doing design work or playing with my little dog named Poly! Ever since I was a young girl I have always dreamed of my perfect wedding (as all girls do). In reality, weddings do not always come out exactly the way the bride wishes it to be. My goal is to share fun and cute wedding ideas that I used in my wedding or ideas that I wish I could have created for my wedding. I wish for all brides to have fun with their wedding planning and to be able to customize their wedding with all the little fun details that will make their wedding dreams come true. Happy Planning!!!

Most brides are so consumed with planning their wedding day that the other bridal events get left in the dust. Think about having a themed engagement party or bridal shower. Themed parties are just so much fun for all guests. Your family and friends will surely love it.

When planning a luau party, make sure you have mini umbrellas for your cocktails, lays for every guest to wear, and party fans for a giveaway. Make sure to create luau themed desserts for all your guests, like shell shaped cookies and cupcakes with bright flowers. From details to centerpieces and decor, this shower theme can easily be achieved!

How would you plan a luau?

Mad About Pinwheels

I love creative DIY projects for weddings! I believe any way to save a dollar when planning a wedding is a good thing. That is why I am in love with the fact that pinwheels are now in style for party décor. Pinwheels are easy to make and are fun to play with. If you make 100 pinwheels … you have yourself an art installation!

Think about placing pinwheels in your floral bouquets or giving them away as a wedding favor. You can also decorate the reception and ceremony areas with them. Even use them as the groom’s boutonnieres! No matter what you decide to do with them, your guests will love them!

The White Party

Many brides and grooms have trouble picking out wedding colors. This is only one of the most important decisions when planning a wedding. Wedding colors express the bride’s and groom’s personality. Will the wedding be traditional? Or ,will the colors fit into a more modern wedding color scheme?

If you are having trouble finalizing a wedding color palette, my suggestion is to turn your wedding into a white party. A monochromatic white wedding is very chic. White weddings tend to be more upscale and luxurious in atmosphere.  However, there are ways to make a wedding in white seem more laid back, if this is what you are looking for. That’s the wonderful thing about the color white; it goes with everything!

If you are going for a luxurious look, try white roses as the wedding flower along with white feathers. If you would like a simple, relaxed wedding, think about having white daisies and white wild flowers.

When planning their wedding brides tend to have a checklist. Location – check. Flowers – check.  Dress – check. Shoes … When picking out their shoes, many brides pick out a classic white shoe to go with their white dress. Instead of a plain white shoe, why not choose a shoe with a fun embellishment or a shoe in a bright color?

Consider wearing shoes that stands out. There are so many shoe choices when it comes to wedding shoes. From lace and bows to rhinestones and bright colors … have fun with your wedding shoes!

Everything Roses

When you think of picking out flowers for your wedding day, the odds are that roses will come to mind. Having roses for your wedding is a classic and timeless choice.  The tricky part with roses is trying to find new and innovative ways to make the traditional wedding rose your own.

When trying to think of creative ways to make roses exciting on your wedding day, consider using roses in both the traditional ways and in new details for your wedding day. Roses can be added to your hair to add a sense of whimsy and romance. They can also be added on your shoes (as shoe clip) for an added fashion couture look. Some other lovely ways to incorporate roses on your wedding day can include having your flower girl sprinkle whole roses instead of just the rose petals, this will add a little more romance to your day.

For more ideas on using roses in your wedding day just look below:
