Cake Inspirations on the Knot

Ok so I started thinking about home, then about homemade, then about cookies. And the logical thought pattern ... is you guessed it - CAKE!

Inspiration Homemade

I read an interesting book recently that got me thinking about home and all the comforts that 'home' brings to mind. And what better way to make a place feel like home then some homemade cookies. 


I look forward to posting some new DIY projects and some other 'homey' inspired wedding ideas this week. Happy Monday!

String Gardens!!

I came across this website recently and thought what a neat idea. I would love to see this applied to a wedding ceremony/reception. If this inspires any of you to create something cool with this idea, I would love to post the images.



Check out String Garden's Website . If you have a chance also check out the section on their site titled 'moving'. The bumble be is cute and almost in rhythm with the music.

Neatest Proposal ever via Green Wedding Shoes

I was checking out some of my favorite wedding sites today and came across a posting on greenweddingshoes.com . And I would have to agree that this is just too cute not to share with all of you.  Talk about making it hard to say no. I truly wish them happily ever after!

Tattoos : To Cover or Not to Cover?

  Many people have tattoos nowadays. And a commonly asked question for brides is 'should I cover it up on my wedding day?'  Well I say if you still love your body artwork and consider it very much a part of who your are then let it show.  There is no point in hiding who you are on your wedding day.


 But if you are having a formal wedding or just prefer your grandmother-in-law not know about the giant skull tattoo you have on your back from your renegade days in college - then go ahead and cover.  You can choose a dress that will cover over your art. Another way to keep from sacrificing your current fashion choice from your past, is to check out some makeup concealers. The two popular ones I hear about are Dermablend and Covermark. Other popular selections are Secret Camouflage by Laura Mercier and Tattoo Camo.

  And as with your makeup and hair, it is always a good idea to test out the product way in advance. Make sure it won't be rubbing off on your dress, the guests you hug or disappear while you bust your moves on the dance floor.

Inspiration : BCBG Dress

Just love this strapless applique dress from BCBG.

This dress can be found at Nordstrom online for $398
