I like Ikea. Quite a bit actually, and I follow the two websites, Ikea Hacker and Ikea Fans. I was reading some recent post, when I came across this one: a wedding hack.

Let’s talk hangers shall we? It’s a small detail, but I think it’s something that’s pretty important (emphasis on the pretty). My general rule of thumb is to use a nice looking hanger for the wedding dress on the day of the wedding. Nothing says “oops” like a cheapo plastic hanger and a couture gown. [...]

When I first saw this link on Design Mom, I thought it was referring to a fancy soda fountain. Nope, turns out it’s a cool twist on a childhood treat.

Wouldn’t this be amazing at a summer wedding?

I’ve wanted to share this with the online world for sometime – my daughter’s first birthday. Being in the wedding business, I had some ideas about how I wanted this to go. In the end we threw a small reception for 26 people at a local hotel. Here are a few pictures I put together [...]

When it comes to designing any event, an inspiration board is more than just a bunch of pretty pictures. It conveys the mood, feeling and look a person wants. It provides a focus…when one is questioning whether an item or idea fit into the scheme, an inspiration board can give the answer. Pictures are worth a thousand [...]

My guy and I went out to a local Italian Restaurant a few weeks ago, and instead of pouring us water from a pitcher, the waiter sat us down to a table that had a wine bottle. We noticed that each had the label removed and was filled with water. Not only did it look great, but we could [...]

I’ve been cruising the Knot, and I love to read the articles they have. The only problem is there’s a ton of them. So I thought I would take some of my favorites and share them. I’m not sure if this is a once a month or once a week thing I’ll be doing, but [...]

Ah the dreaded wedding trends…well, at least for me. I love innovation and creativity; I just don’t think some ”trends” are for every couple or that people should try to do everything. (Does this mean I’m voted off the island?) Besides, if eveyone did the same thing we wouldn’t have all the cool, personalized weddings that [...]

The great thing about wedding inspiration is that it can come from anywhere. After the excitement for my new wedding magazine wound down, I saw that I had also received the January 2008 Pottery Barn catalog. Now I would love to watch the people set up these rooms. My detail-loving eyes can spend ages looking at [...]
