Etsy Friday

TGIF! Here’s our Etsy pick for this week from MondeDesign. This keepsake pillow would be a great piece to keep after the wedding and can be done in a variety of colours! So cute!

Eye Candy Monday AND Wonderful Wednesdays

Well we obviously missed the boat in posting an Eye Candy Monday post! :o ( It’s been crazy busy and we did an amazing wedding for the lovely Lesley and Greg this weekend at the zoo – so we’re cutting ourselves some slack! Today we’ll do a double duty post of Gorgeous Unique ideas and kill two birds with one stone!

How cute is this embroidered initial and date patch for your groom’s suit jacket? A way to for him to always remember your anniversary date!
We’re also loving the idea of having all your best girls and family sign the bottom of your shoes with good luck quotes! Another great way to remember who was there with you before you became a Mrs!

Need a different idea for a guestbook? Have guests write their wishes and predict where you’ll be as a couple in 25 years – three kids? A dog, a cat and a hamster? have you traveled the world together?

Keep guests entertained and talking with this great conversation starter. List things you and your groom have done and have guest guess if it was you or your Mr. that sky dove in Hawaii.

Here are some great ideas for after the wedding – have your photographer capture a great shot of your first dance and frame that on the wall. Or for those sentimental couples, write out all the reasons you love each other and have them printed on a large canvas – display them at your wedding and then transfer them to your home.

We hope this two in one blog post has inspired your creative juices! For more inspiration be sure to visit our Pinterest boards!
