While I’m certainly no floral designer, I do enjoy putting things together aesthetically. I had bunch of flowers left over from a shoot for Nonpareil Magazine this weekend, so, rather than let it go to waste, I took the extras and began to decorate my house. I figured I’d share my adventures in floral styling [...]

Week in Review: January 15, 2010
Friday, January 15, 2010
I completely fawned over every last detail in this charming wedding featured on Style Me Pretty; Oh So Beautiful Paper found these lovely paper terrariums that would be remarkable centerpieces (if you had an unlimited budget) but could be great inspiration if you’re the crafty type; industry and environment never went so well as in [...]
Floral Silhouettes Made Simple by Kapitza
Thursday, January 14, 2010
Everyone loves a good floral or botanical silhouette in their paper goods, from their invitations to their programs, from their favors to their thank you cards, but what happens when you’re not a designer and don’t want to pay to get all of your pieces to match perfectly? Kapitza has a series of lovely botanical [...]
Proudly Announcing: Nonpareil Magazine!
Tuesday, January 12, 2010
It’s with great pleasure that I finally publicly announce the special project I’ve been working on with Kristen of Papercrave. Through an incredible collaborative effort, we’ve developed a new, hip e-zine called Nonpareil Magazine. While the magazine is overall wedding-centric, the content within it could easily be adapted for multiple occasions or for everyday use. [...]
Oh My! Oh My Deer!
Tuesday, January 12, 2010
What makes a great hair accessory on your wedding? In my opinion, it’s a piece that adds drama without going too overboard. That’s probably why I’m so taken by Oh My Deer‘s aesthetic. The style is super hip and makes great use of different textures and materials. The contemporary style mixed with the soft florals [...]
Some Like It Sweet: Yummy Bites from Have It Sweet
Monday, January 11, 2010
Apparently the folks at Have It Sweet didn’t get the memo that it’s absolutely cruel to post photos of lovely treats like the ones they make so soon after the holidays and new year. Their resolution-breaking sweets are absolutely mouth watering to look at, and I must confess that I’ve already had my break down [...]

Ouma Clothing has had me as a long-standing fan, and [...]

IB Birthday Advertising Discount!
Tuesday, January 5, 2010
I realized today that I didn’t really do much for our first birthday, so I decided to throw out something for our vendor readers, and I’ll prepare a little treat for our brides later in the week. Until Friday, the Inspired Bride will offer a celebratory 10% discount on our ad rates as a thank [...]
