Wooden Wedding Sign

How amazing is this wooden sign?! 

I am just in love with the things they "stole" from each other. It is so sweet! I found this on Etsy and it is personalized to your wedding (or a friend's!). Kudos to wavynavy for making these!

And if you wanted to DIY, all you would need is a nice piece of dark or stained wood, stencils, and the paint color of your choice plus some sand paper to rough up the edges. Easy peasy!

Jewelry for an Open-Back Dress

I found the perfect (and shiny!) solution for the open-back dresses...

Tah-Dah!

It's gorgeous, right?! So simple. So elegant. So awesometastic! 

Open-back dresses are super sexy, but this is like the cherry on top. The dangling sets of pearls are just beautiful and add such a unique touch that you can only get with this style of dress.

I love it! What about you?

Shoe Decals

Shoes, shoes, shoes, and shoes....these are a few of a girl's favorite things! And why not, shoes are absolutely fabulous, are they not? When I saw these new shoe decals on Etsy, I couldn't believe wedding shoes could get any better, but they do!

These decals are so adorable (and make for a great close-up photo of the shoes!).

How awesome of an idea are these??

Bridesmaids Hangers

The morning of the wedding you'll be hang-ing around getting your hair done, hang-ing around getting your makeup done, all while hang-ing out with your bridesmaids. This is why these hangers from Etsy are such a perfect gift for all of your bridesmaids for that morning when you're all hang-ing around and getting ready!

Do you guys not think these are so perfect for just hang-ing around?!?

I Spy Wedding Game

I Spy with my little eye....someone in love! I Spy with my little eye....the most gorgeous cake ever! I Spy with my little eye....well I think someone that supposed to be dancing? We've all played the I Spy game as a kid, so why forget about it now that we're older?

This I Spy Camera Game would be so much fun at your wedding and a great way to keep guests occupied and involved in your special day! An extra plus? You get more wedding pictures out of it-ones you don't even have to pose and smile for!

What are some of the most memorable moments you've spied at weddings??

Wedding Gift for Mom

Wedding day is a bride's big day-the day she's dreamed about since she was a little girl. But the bride is not the only one who it's a big day for.

From the time her daughter is a little girl, a mother dreams of the day she will help her daughter into her wedding gown, and the man who will stand beside her. A mother teaches her son to be the perfect man, so that she can one day watch him marry the perfect woman.

While the wedding day is filled with happiness and laughter, there are also those tears of joy that flow as well-trust me, I've done a few of these. These handkerchiefs from Etsy are such thoughtful, adorable gifts for a bride to give to her mother and/or mother-in-law to keep their eyes dry during the day.

How sweet are these?? I'm not sure how I'm going to keep it together when Gabriel or Zachary are walking down the aisle, I already cry at every Mother Son Dance! 

 Have any of you moms ever gotten anything special from your bride or groom on their wedding day?

Fairytale Reception Sign

The wedding day is the one day every girl dreams of from the time she's a little girl-the one day on which she gets to be the princess in her own fairytale.

What better way to keep the fairytale alive than with this sign from Etsy pointing guests in the direction of the reception??

DIY Week Part 4

For part four of this Do-It-Yourself week, I love love loved these retro pin wheel centerpieces from Emmaline Bride they found by Elizabeth St on Etsy! These adorable pin wheels are such a great way to make your bridal shower or retro wedding that much more fun!

I loved these, what do you guys think of them??

Special Event Tags

Mayasmommas from Etsy sent us these special event tags to sample and we just love them!! They are so cute and unique!

The tags are handmade and aged in coffee! They are seriously a perfect detail for country, outdoor, rustic and vintage weddings and other events too! They come in different sizes and styles.

I had a little fun with them and thought up a couple different ways to use them. Please excuse my amateur photography!

A thank you tag for favors or whatever! It would be really cute to put your personalized logo or monogram on the back!

Table numbers!

Placecards!

Even as a gift tag!

These tags are so versatile, you can use them any way you can think of. Here are some ways that other brides have used them!

Guestbook Fun

When I stumbled across this, I just knew I had to share it with you guys! Bleu De Toi has come out with this fun and unique way of remembering the guests at your wedding. This guestbook fingerprint tree can become a lovely keepsake to hang on your wall instead of just some book that sits in a box in your attic.

Each woodcut print is hand printed and personalized just for you! The branches are left bare and you can choose the ink colors you want your guests to leave their thumb prints with.

I just love this idea! It's different and cute and fun for all of your guests!

You could even do balloons!! So adorable!

Flowerless Bouquets

These bouquets would certainly last much longer than traditional flowers, and they are so sparkly and glamourous!  This one is made of vintage jewelry.

On a Stick

After playing dress-up in the PhoBooth at Ms. Debbie's a few weeks ago, these mustaches and lips on a stick would definitely make for a lot of fun at a reception!

Super Cute Cake Topper

While we are on uber cuteness, check out these cake toppers, that I also found on Etsy!
When you are looking for a cake topper, and deciding if you wanted to use one or not think about the personality of your wedding. How the topper ties to you, if you are going to use your college mascot, or cute adorable birds, are you tying those birds anywhere else in the wedding?

Will the topper match your theme over-all?
