FOR ME:
So…I just made the terrible mistake of passing by the dreaded magnified mirror in our hotel. BIG MISTAKE. Ladies, just do your self a favor and restrain from looking. My poor skin is in need of some serious TLC so I NEED your help! I currently use Proactive but am considering switching to Philosophy skin products. For some reason at 3…let’s just say 30-ish, my skin has decided to go crazzzzzy. I am thankful that for some reason during the stress of planning my wedding, my face was clear. That being said, I am not so stoked on having more acne now than I did as a teenager! So, any Philosophy fans out there??? I am also considering using a primer. Has anyone tried the Philosophy “the present” primer? I really want to try it out too! I would LOVE any feedback. TYIA!
FOR YOU:
Fun wedding gift sets…also by Philosophy! CUTE!!!

Hey ladies (& gents)! Bridal Inquirer is happy to introduce you to Beau-Coup & Wedding Paper Divas newest joint venture…Resourceful Brides! And to kick it off in true recessionista style, they are sponsoring a contest in which one lucky bride (or groom) will win $1000 to purchase invitations and favors for all their guests! How awesome is that??? All you have to do is visit the site and submit the best money-saving wedding tip to be entered to win $1,000 in gift certificates from Wedding Paper Divas and Beau-coup! The deadline for submissions is Monday, July 20 at midnight, PST and the winning idea will be posted online on Friday, July 24.
Resourceful Brides is a great resource for the Recessionista Bride looking for money-saving tips in planning her wedding. My favorite tip so far…Favor Centerpieces: The average cost for a floral centerpiece is between $50 to $150. You can cut that cost altogether by creating “break-away” centerpieces out of your wedding favors. Simply arrange your favors on top of a decorative platter or cake plate and invite everyone at the table to take one home.
This bride & groom chose a silhouette theme and actually had Karl Johnson, of Cut Arts (in Los Angeles..woo hoo) cut silhouettes for their guests live at the wedding! SUCH a unique and memorable treat for their guests!
Be sure and check out his blog to see more!
What the bride & groom had to say…
We had an outdoor wedding at a restaurant so I chose not to wear a veil since it seemed a little too formal, but if I had worn one…
it would have been one of these beauties from Sara Gabriel.
I have seen many a bride give their bridesmaids the option of wearing matching but un-matching dresses but THIS one definitely takes the cake. Thanks to one of my favorite blogs, the Classic Bride for sharing this beautiful photo.
VERY inspirational and OH SO very stylish!
WOWZA…these ruffled chair covers from Chameleon Chair would certainly glam up any room!
Aren’t they pretty enough to wear???

Reward: A simple and personalized dash of style.
Original purpose: Organizing your papers.
Aha! use: Letting guests locate their tables in a creative way. Clip a miniature clothespin to the bottom of each paper to create the base for a rustic escort card display.
Reward: Pinning down your table assignment.
Original purpose: Showcasing a lemon Bundt triumph.
Aha! use: Serving appetizers. Have your caterer stack a small cake stand on top of a larger one to increase your surface area for canapés or crudités and free up precious table space.
Reward: No waiting time for hors d’oeuvres.
Original purpose: The finishing touch when you played dress-up in Grandma’s closet.
Aha! use: Channel Grandma’s style and update plain white wedding shoes with a funky pair of clip-on earrings. Attach them to the shoes at the center (or slightly off center), and let your fancy footwork peek out from under your gown.
