Alright, I’m not going to lie. I broke my self-imposed rule of not posting on the weekends until I get my act together and get most (if not all) of the relaunch content together… but I was so incredibly excited by Twigs and Honey that I’m daring to defy myself. The collection is so incredibly [...]

New Feature: Inspired Bride + ColourLovers
Thursday, February 26, 2009
When you’re wedding planning, sometimes it can be hard to visualize how your colors will look together. You might wonder if maybe there’s better shades to use, or maybe better color palettes all together. In our 2.0 launch (on Monday!) we’ll be bringing you a few more palettes, but we’re logging on to ColourLovers in [...]
Do It Yourself Project: Simple Silhouette Favor Box
Wednesday, February 25, 2009
If you’ve been wondering why the weekend posts have been MIA the past few weeks, it’s because I’ve been doing some serious work on the back end trying to get the Inspired Bride’s second version finished. Needless to say, it’s taking a while. As an advance treat, though, I figured I’d let one feature go [...]
Partie Over Here!
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
If there’s one thing that I think is absolutely essential to any wedding (besides the engaged couple!), it’s color with impact, and the events by La Partie Events in Santa Monica, California have it in spades. They’re fun, charming, and fabulously put together – and the colors always give it a celebratory feel that every [...]

Eddie Ross Moves Mountains.
Thursday, February 19, 2009
Honestly, I hate carnations with a fiery passion. I immediately think of cheap supermarket bouquets and I’ve been utterly convinced you’d have to be able to move mountains or do other miraculous works to make me think of them as anything but tacky…. … but lo and behold, Eddie Ross (of Bravo’s Top Design and [...]
Doing Yourself a Favor with BellaTerra
Wednesday, February 18, 2009
I’m in full-on favor mode now, and I’m definitely making my own. I, like many of my fellow brides-to-be, am making the most of my creativity and resourcefulness as a result of this fantastic recession we’re in (a blessing in disguise for my wedding, at least, though certainly not for my parents’ savings and 401K). [...]
Inviting Favor Tags by Invited Ink
Tuesday, February 17, 2009
I was wandering around Etsy the other day – for my own purposes, not for research! – and stumbled across these delightful little tags from Invited Ink that would be perfect for favor tags. I like them so much, I’m thinking of using them myself! At a paper weight of 600gsm, it’s a pretty substantial [...]
