Pin of the Week: Flurry of Florals

If there’s one thing that is always in style when it comes to weddings, it’s florals.

Whether it’s flower garlands strung across tables, bridesmaids clutching their petite bouquets or rose boutonnieres pinned to suits, flowers are everywhere. Especially on wedding announcements.

Why not continue the trend and embellish your invites with beautiful rose prints or laurel-leafed crowns—as simple or detailed as you want. Too add depth to your invites, include a variety of fonts and lettering, especially words etched in calligraphy.

Whatever your style, designing invitations merits unlimited creativity on your end. It looks like you’ve got your work cut out for you—literally. 😉

Sweet Treat

Bright, sweet and refreshing, watermelon is the perfect addition to any summertime fete.

The season’s most wedding-friendly fruit is cut out for more than basic wedges. Here are a few ways you can serve this sweet treat at your outdoor wedding:

Melon pops

Slice watermelon into 1-inch-thick triangles (pictured above). Make a small slit in the center of each rind with a paring knife and stick a popsicle stick inside the slit.

Watermelon words

Cut watermelon into 1-inch-thick slices and stamp out letters (you and your groom’s initials or shared surname) or numbers (your anniversary date) with anything-but-plastic cookie cutters.

Sweet bites

Cut watermelon into cubes and top with olive oil, mozzarella, coarse salt, cracked pepper, a cherry tomato and a dash of balsamic vinegar. Stick a toothpick in the center to transform it into easy-to-eat finger food.

Pin of the Week: Pretty Woman

It’s no secret that every bride strives to look beautiful on her wedding day.

The possibilities are endless when it comes to bridal beauty and it can become a bit daunting attempting to perfect the hair, make-up and jewelry for your special day.

Despite the stress, there are some lasting looks that never cease to dazzle.

Pin of the Week

We love how this bride complemented her jeweled sleeve with diamond studs: bold, but not too extravagant. Her cherry lips epitomize timeless glamour, while her tasteful updo exudes classic elegance.

Combine variations of these three simple choices and you’ll be amazed at the ease of looking positively enchanting on your wedding day.

Florals of Blush

Though roses are red,

All flowers are lush—

So pep up your wedding

With florals of blush.

 

Instead of shying away from the rose-colored everything of February, infuse your wedding with the color of romance in the most mild of ways; cake florals. By letting the splendid hues of blush envelope your big day, you’ll be sure to love it—just like you do your groom.

Bright Bride

Why not brighten the go-to hue of every wedding gown with an unexpected splash of color? Trust embroidered flowers and tinted appliqué to add just the touch of summer to any white-drenched bride.

Cut It Out

Your upcoming nuptials offer a reason to stand out and shine. A low cut neckline will give you the edge to wow your guests, stun your groom and satisfy your style.

Flavorful Flair

Infusing wedding cakes with savory flavors has taken the bridal industry by storm. Lavender, saffron and basil are just a few gems that offer a sweet surprise to guests and an even sweeter beginning to a new chapter with your better half.

Add the Herbs

Freshen up your wedding with Mother Nature’s most flavorsome handiwork: herbs. Great for décor or cuisine, herbs give your wedding the sweet smell of spring.

Apart from their natural vibrant colors, herbs also make for natural aphrodisiacs. Not only will they leave your guests with mouths watering, they’ll leave you more than ready for your wedding night. 😉

So inhale deeply and dig in to the crisp aroma of your wedding’s freshest bite.
