Fabulous Wedding Accessories from Stella & Dot!

InspiredGal — Tue, 30 Mar 2010 06:00:00 -0700

I recently attended a home party, featuring Jewelry Designs by Stella & Dot. I wasn't sure what to expect... I happen to not usually be a fan of the home shopping parties, only because i don't like making people feel pressured to buy (even though i happen to be a mary kay consultant - which i love! i just am not a fan of pressuring). Anyway, I attended the party and immediately fell for all the cute jewelry and accessories from Stella & Dot! From their fabulous display, incredible products, and right down to their adorable packaging!! I just had to share this fantastic find with all my Brides out there; be sure to check out the Stella & Dot Website where you can order online! Thanks to my cousin Sarah (the hostess) and the oh so wonderful Stella & Dot Stylist: Michelle Bouras for turning me on to Stella & Dot!

There are so many on trend pieces in their current collection that are just perfect for your wedding day look. I even purchased myself the "Glint Flower CZ Earings" that were recently featured in InStyle Weddings Magazine (I've already gotten so many compliments already)!! Check them out here:

I think this incredible pearl and metallic necklace below would be so amazing paired with a strapless gown and some simple earings and this timeless bracelette below - what a stunning look!

Enjoy Free Retro Invitation Templates!

InspiredGal — Sat, 20 Feb 2010 06:00:00 -0800

I came across these cute invitation cards from Free Printables Online... You may be thinking "how could i possibly use those in my wedding"? Well, we were inspired by them to be used as invites for Engagement Parties! A special touch would be to print them on thick cardstock or thick gloss paper (8.5 x 11 paper size) and print on the backside with your Engagement Picture, enclose the invite in a nice quality envelope, be sure to stick on a cute Return Address Label, and Voila - you have yourself one creative and affordible Engagement/Photo Invitation!

Typewriter Inspired Wedding Theme

Bouquet Keys made by Keys & Memories Etsy Shop

Book Boxes - Green Two-Stack $44 - Wisteria

Pottery BarnTypewriter Keys $349

Typewriter Initial Cuff Links: E&H $100

As I contemplated what theme to create for an inspiration board, I was reminded of my love for all things pretty & vintage! A twist on the shade of "something blue" these blues are sure to create a clean and pretty pallet in shades of mint blue, creams, ivory, and brown (or black hues like the typewriter keys). *FIND#1* Typewriter Key Wall Art {$349 from Pottery Barn} is a great piece of inspiration for your Table Numbers & Escort Cards. My Idea is to create your own DIY Board with letters in Typewriter fonts or numbers, you can lead your guests to find their seats on the board under the alphabet letter of their last name directing them to their table number - its super cute and easy to DIY! *FIND#2* Hawaiian Based Photographer James Rubio captured such a beautiful shot of Hot Heels sitting on top of a vintage typewriter - when creating this theme you have got to incorporate a unique or vintage typewriter {I recommend searching on ebay, local garage sales, or flea markets to find yourself one for your wedding. Having guests sign in on the typewriter for the Guest Book will be a hugely creative hit}! *FIND#3* Keys & Memories Etsy Shop created this adorable bouquet body, adorned with typewriter keys {you can purchase them by clicking their link above} its a cute idea to do the initials of you and your soon to be hubby, or to have your bridesmaids initials on their individual bouquets. *FIND#4* A great gift to give your Groom on your wedding to complete your Typewriter Theme are these sweet CuffLinks {from E&H @ $100, also visit Etsy Shops for some handmade at a better price}. *FIND#5* These Mint Green book boxes create a unique decor element {from Wisteria @ $44, or do your own DIY version with stacked vintage books}. Enjoy the Typewriter Madness~
