Bridesmaids Gifts

On Wednesday we like to bring you some unique ideas for your wedding day. This past weekend we met with a client who asked her bridesmaids to take on the responsibility by putting together a gift box. The idea was so cute we had to share! In her version she bought wooden boxes and placed the first letter of each bridesmaids' name on the top lid and on the inside lid it said "Will you be my bridesmaid?". The box contained everything her ladies needed to be prepared for the big day - dress color swatches, small gifts and trinkets, as well as info of date, location, etc. With your bridesmaids taking on so many responsibilities and spending a good amount of $$ to make your experience a fab one it is nice to show them that you care and what better way then with a gift box?? Below are a few examples of this great idea:

How cute are these mini suitcase gift boxes? Girly, thoughtful, and original!

The shape of these boxes are to die for and we love the matching jewelry!

This box is a great DIY project - you can customize through staining, painting, and glue gunning it! Perfect for a rustic, outdoor wedding.

As we always say - be nice to your bridesmaids!

A Bouquet Alternative - shocker!

It's Monday already?? We spent a good portion of the weekend doing wedding related stuff - bridal gown shopping for our dear friend Jamie, shopping around and buying pretty aisle stands, designed arrangements, and visiting venues for upcoming weddings. Good thing I love doing this because that was a packed weekend!!

One idea we came across this weekend that I absolutely had to share was an alternative to a bouquet. I know I know, we work with flowers so how can we possibly be suggesting anything but? Well, we are an event design/decor company so we can give you what you want! And if you are looking for a casual, fun, and summary alternative to a floral bouquet how about using pinwheels?? These fun nostalgic elements can be a great way to incorporate your wedding colors and an interesting way to bring in a unique element (thinking monograms, lyrics, vows, etc). Check out some fun images of pinwheels used as wedding party accessories!

And if you want a bit of the pinwheel without giving up the flowers - how about incorporating mini pinwheels in your bouquet, adding a bit of whimsy.

And the best part about these pinwheels? They make a great keepsake.
