My Love For Damask...

I absolutely love damask patterns with a splash of green or fuchsia as an accent color . I recently found personalized damask lollipops which ties together two of my loves, lollipops and the damask pattern...yeah!!! Accent The Party is favor heaven for brides and grooms and the personalized damask lollipops come in 63 colors, multiple font and ribbon options. What a perfect addition to any wedding, bridal shower, baby shower or birthday party and if you are looking for other unique favors be sure to look at what Accent The Party has to offer. I also loved the creative cupcake holders... be sure to take a look at those as well. www.accenttheparty.com

"Out Of The Box" Tuesday

{courtesy of Lisa Takao}
I'm a true lover of paper and I get that love from my mother who does scrapbooking for family members and friends. I'm constantly in awe of the paper selection my mother chooses when she starts a new scrapbook, she always says she's looking for the unique and exquisite designs and textures. When I look for wedding invitation designers I look for the designer who creates something that represents a client who is looking beyond the traditional invitations. I found Lisa Takao's creativity breathtaking and her speciality of creating the "perfect little package" reflective of the clients I wish to coordinate special events for. I invite you to take a look at Lisa's Fine Couture Invitations {at} www.lisatakao.com

Out Of The Box Tuesday

{Courtesy of Tejani}
As a lover of exquisite jewelry I found some truly "out of the box" gorgeous pieces by designer Urvi Prunier of Tejani. Tejani is derived from the designer's family name which means "brightness & sparkle" and that's exactly how I would describe Urvi's collections. Her pieces encompass a touch of her ethnic heritage and contemporary style modern brides are looking for. Here is one of my favorite pieces, which I would describe as something old, something blue....

Bridal Bag Glam....

{Courtesy of Susej Designs}
I recently found a beautiful bridal handbag that I thought would be perfect for a bride that’s not afraid to embrace fashion. When I saw the bridal bags they spoke volumes to me but of course I’ve never met a bag that I did not love {ok, I met a Louis Vuitton that was $2500.00 and I couldn’t image paying that much for a handbag}. Dionne Green is the artistic designer behind Susej Designs and looking at all of her creative handbags you can appreciate the intricate details. Each bridal bag is customized with the couple’s wedding date with an inscription that reads “on this day of (the date is written),” I will marry my friend.”. What a great gift to give a bride or maid of honor…. The front of the bag is a white wedding dress with clusters of tulle and flowers adorned with faux pearls to form the skirt of the dress . The bustier is decorated with a single strand of Swarovski crystals and faux pearls and the bride is wearing a veil. The entire bag is beautiful and I invite you take a look at Susej Designs {at}www.susejdesigns.com

Out Of The Box Tuesday

A new edition to The Art of Inspiration blog is “Out Of The Box" Tuesday. This is dedicated to the entrepreneur who thinks outside of the box, who inspires others or simply has that “wow” factor. I decided the entrepreneur would not only be from within the wedding industry but anyone who inspires others.
My first “Out Of The Box” honoree is Renae Bluitt, the founder of Crush Media and In Her Shoes blog. I chose Renae because she’s an inspiration to others and let’s face it... she has that “wow” factor. As I read her blog I realized there is something for everyone, no matter what's your style, you'll walk away with something. I encourage any reader looking for something uplifting & empowering to check out In Her Shoes Blog{@} www.inhershoesblog.com.

Renae keep bringing the flair!
