Real wedding: Erin and Jeremy

We are thrilled to report that the wedding of Eunice's best friend, Erin and her new hubby, Jeremy, is featured on Style Me Pretty today!

It was a truly fabulous and fun affair, designed by Alison Events, with lots of ingenious details, including a vintage card catalog that acted as the seating guide. Each guest's card was cross-referenced with other guests according to interests, life history, etc....

...and possibly the most amazing and hilarious first dance -  done to Hey Soul Sister by Train and including the Beyoncé's signature move from All the Single Ladies (need we say more?)...

...a photo booth by Magnolia Photo Booth - always a huge hit at any party...

We collaborated with Erin and Jeremy to come up with a charming array of stationery inspired by vintage ephemera and McSweeny's. The invitation was supposed to look like a page torn from a book...

The replies were Mad Libs fashioned to look like an old school Western Union telegram...

And the programs, designed to look like a vintage book...

This was one of our favorite projects so far this year!  We really loved their creativity and sense of fun.

Chandelier inspired wedding cake!

Foodie couple Natalie West (pastry chef) and Alex Nemeth (executive chef) were so inspired by our Chandelier wedding invitation that they used the motif on their wedding cake! The newlyweds enlisted baker Amelia Julio at Sweet Teeth Bakery to execute their vision for their Seattle nuptials at Herban Feast Sodo Park. Read more about their wedding menu here. Congrats Natalie and Alex!

Real wedding: Martine and Fred

Crafty couple Martine and Fred used our free template to create a sign for their signature cocktail for their recent Oregon wedding. Yay! We're so pleased we could contribute to this rustic event featuring bundt cakes, show posters and a country band! See more photos from this fun wedding at the fabulously redesigned Snippet and Ink!

Personalized Bridesmaids Gifts

We love the idea of thanking your hard working bridesmaids with a small token of your appreciation. A perfect gift is something that they can use during the wedding as well as enjoy as a memory of the day. These letterpress inspired necklaces from Erica Weiner are just lovely! Perfer something more classic? Try this rose gold and diamond version from Hokise Jewelry...

..or this sterling silver version from Tiffany's:

This feather motif would be lovely for an outdoor event:

Or collect different vintage necklaces (look on Ebay or Etsy) for an eclectic look!

Check out these stunning photos from Alix (aka The Cherry Blossom Girl) and Manu's wedding in Auvergne, France. Alix designed her dress and had it made in the MLH atelier. Gorgeous!
