Awesometastic Details and Giveaway: Food Accessories

It's difficult enough to make a menu, but then trying to add in details to food gets tricky. Katie had personalized paper straws and cupcake flags made to make all the food stand out and it looked amazing!

Awesometastic Details and Giveaway: Flags

We're still doing our awesometastic details giveaway, so get those pictures in to Melissa {at} awesometasticblog{dot}com!

Here's a DIY detail from Katie's wedding that we thought was adorable! She made flags to wave after the ceremony and at her and her hubby's reception introduction instead of typical rice or bubbles, too cute!

Awesometastic Details and Giveaway: Bouquet

This may look like any pretty pink bouquet, but if you look close you can see some lace wrapped around the stems. Katie used lace from her mother's wedding gown as a cherished personal detail she could carry down the aisle, how awesometastic is that?!

If you had beautiful details like this at your wedding send us your pictures! We're giving away something sparkly for the best ideas! Look here for the rules, and submit pics to Melissa {at} awesometasticblog{dot}com.

Invitations By Dawn Giveaway

Wedding invitations are one of our favorite parts of weddings (I have a thing for all things paper)- selecting the perfect theme, sending them, receiving them- it’s all just wonderful! We feel brides may get overwhelmed when looking through all of the options that are available to them.
So, when Dawn at Invitations by Dawn asked us if she could do a guest blog and giveaway with us, we said YES YES YES! Not only are her invitations trendy and  the awesomesauce, they are completely affordable and their customer service is out of this world! Check out what she had to say about wedding invitation trends and maybe you’ll be the lucky reader to win her giveaway:

Invitations By Dawn:

We’re thrilled to be here from Invitations by Dawn to share the latest news about wedding invitations and trends in today’s weddings.

At Invitations by Dawn, we specialize in theme wedding invitations and coordinating theme ceremony accessories and reception accessories perfect for YOUR celebration. Our brides contact us daily asking for invitations and accessories that coordinate with their unique wedding themes. And we aim to please by adding new wedding invitations and coordinating accessories all the time!

Some of the latest requests from our brides include:

Music Wedding Theme

via Invitations by Dawn

Whether they’re musicians themselves or just love music, today’s brides are loving a music theme for their weddings! We designed our Noteworthy Invitation with a flourish and music notes in classic black and white inspired by sheet music. Coordinating enclosure cards and a matching seal pull the wedding stationery look together!

Destination Wedding Theme

Destination weddings are a hot wedding theme and we love this Passport Save the Date for letting guests know they’ll be traveling to celebrate with you. The colors and design all mimic a real passport for a fun and unique look.

Lace Wedding Theme

Via Invitations by Dawn

Kate Middleton confirmed what we’ve always known — lace and weddings go hand in hand! We designed our Lacy Rose wedding invitation with modern shimmer paper and an embossed lace pattern to give brides the opportunity to add a regal and romantic touch to their own lace theme weddings.

How do you choose a wedding theme? Anything you love can become your wedding theme! While some brides base their theme on their favorite color or season, others draw their themes from hobbies, their occupation, or even their favorite movies! Don’t forget that the location of your destination wedding can become a theme in itself (Hawaii, the mountains, the tropics).

Have fun with your wedding theme! We hope you’ll visit us at Invitations by Dawn soon to find the perfect wedding invitations and coordinating accessories for your theme wedding.

Best wishes,

~Dawn
