I do have to say I am delighted to share this fabulous new vendor out on the Bridal Scene... Chinny Lulu Designs is a creative new Hair Accessory Designer with her store featured on Etsy! I am delighted to call Chinny my friend, she is sweet inside and out; and to top it off she is so talented!! Check out her new store featuring custom pieces for all (she has pieces for Modern Brides, Vintage Brides, Fun Bridal Parties, and pretty much any other occasion and style lovers)~ I just love how on trend each piece is, enjoy:

"Stella" by Tocca Parfum is my absolute favorite scent as it has such a classic and elegant richness to it... It sure makes for a fabulous Bridal Shower Gift, a sweet smelling gift for The Bride from her loving Groom on their big day (I always recommend the Groom to pass along a thoughtful wedding gift with a hand written note to his Bride on the big day. Be sure to pass this on to a responsible person to make sure they hand deliver it to her as she is getting ready - it's a great way to remind her your thinking of her and excited to become her "Husband")! Also, it is very appropriate for a Mother of the Bride to gift to her daughter or for the Bride to gift to her Maid of Honor~

TOCCA Eau de Parfum, Stella $68.00 by Tocca at Beauty.com
Recapturing the imagination, our four Eau de Parfum's each bring a distinct character into the world of Tocca.

When I first began planning my own wedding I wanted to do something creative to ask my favorite ladies to play a special role in my Bridal Party, but didn't quite know what to do... I ended up coming up with a poem and typing it out on elegant paper with elegant fonts and it read a special note for each role in the Bridal party (I guess I will have to search my office and find the actual poems I used to share with you all). After I printed them, I placed them in beautiful frames and had them sent to each member of my Bridal Party Hopefull's ;) Come to find out, the special gesture was such a pleasent surprise to each of them that they called me the instant they received their creative Team Bride Invitation!

I recently came across another very unique and creative way to invite your gal-pal's to be official members of your Bridal Party on PW and thought I would share the cuteness with you all... It is very easy and affordable if you follow the instructions, pick up supplies at your local craft store, and make it your own unique invite with custom colors and fonts that best match your wedding theme (this is a great way to give the future Bridal Party an insight to your decor scheme)~ Hope you enjoy it and Happy Planning!!

"Looking for a special way to ask your bridesmaids and maid of honor to be part of your big day? These sweet accordion gifts can be customized to your bridesmaid's personality. They "pop" open when the lid is taken off!

Materials needed: Boxes with lids, Ribbon, Computer/Printer and assorted charms or tokens.

Step One: Measure box and layout text accordingly in a program like Microsoft Word or Adobe Illustrator. You'll want to make each one according to your bridesmaid's interests. Print it out.

Step Two:  After printing, cut out the strips of paper and fold them accordion style. Be sure to leave a little flap at the top to adhere the strip to the lid of the box.

Step Three: Attach the tokens or charms by tying or gluing them to the paper then adhere the strip to the lid of the box.

Step Four: Tie with a ribbon and voila! A special gift for your special friend." Source

Jennifer Green, Bride To Be on New Years Eve (what a special day to celebrate a joining of lives in marriage to kick off the new year) was showered with love and gifts by some very special ladies in her life! A dear friend to Jennifer and her family, Fabi Harris opened her beautiful home and honored Jennifer with a truly memorable Bridal Shower... Here are a few Inspiring pictures taken at Jen's Bridal Shower Tea, boy was it a fun event to attend!

I just love this idea: Heart Shaped Notecards were placed on the table that each had a Month of the Year written on them. Each guest was to write their name on the back of the card and list an activity for the newlyweds to do sometime during that month. I wrote down the month of June and suggested that the newlyweds take a Saturday drive down to Laguna Beach to visit the beautiful Art Galleries (where they usually serve Mamosa's or Champagne on weekends), then visit the Beautiful Montage Resort & Spa where they can enjoy live music in the Lobby Lounge and then take a stroll down their breathtaking Beach and enjoy the sun and summer brease together! What a fun way to make their first year of marriage memorable and exciting!!

I do have to say that they had some creative games to play at this extra special Bridal Shower. The Bride was blinefolded by the oh-so-talented host Fabi and then handed a suitecase where she then had to put the attire items on without seeing what they were. It was quite hilarious when she thought a slipper was an elbow pad and thought a nightgown was an apron ;) The idea was that she was Getting Ready for her Groom on their Honeymoon - so creative!

So much fun with Jennifer, the Beautiful Bride as she enjoyed her Luncheon Tea and all the pretty decor!

A special poem was read by the Bride's sweet friend Fabi Harris, who threw her the beautiful Bridal Shower. The Biblical poem mentioned significant wedding items (something old, new, borrowed, and blue) - as Fabi read the sweet words, she gifted Jennifer (The Bride to be), her Mother, and soon to be Mother In Law with the touching hankerchief with all the significant items shown in the photo above. If I were Martha Stewart, i'd call this "A Good Thing!"

They served the salad in a vintage teacup and i have to say it sure made the plate look adorable

Tea Sandwiches, Punch, Hot Tea, Scones, and so much more... They also had these cute candy favors in a decorative bag (pictured above)
