Love, love, love all of the girly details that this bride infused into her day. Her color palette of Tiffany Blue and White is so crisp...sophisticated with a hint of prep. Super cute.

We are finishing up the day with Lynn Russell of Satsuma Press and some pure deliciousness. Lynn is giving us her tips for creating a really beautiful, seasonal menu.
One of the things I absolutely love to do (besides print, of course) is cook. And I think one of the most memorable parts of a wedding can and should be the food! I thought I’d just include a few sample menus, one for each season. These are...

Anyway, I was going to hand the blog over to some of my guest bloggers for...
Now, we are on to hair! Lisa Hoffman of Ceci New York is stopping by today to share some beauty tips that she picked up while planning her own destination wedding.

When it came to my hair, I had a very specific vision yet no one to pull it off for me. Again, I was in the same boat as I was with make up. What to do? Then as I was talking to a wonderfully talented industry friend of mine, Stacey Lyn Weinstein of...

Lisa Hoffman of Ceci New York is stopping by today and is taking a complete departure from her usual stationery themed features to give you some tips on hair and make-up.

Think about packaging as a way to bring in a little bit of style. We used fabric remnants as ribbon to gussy up rather simple boxes. Another idea, package your favors with old papers and secure them with...a toothpick!
I completely love these...
It's time ladies!! We are taking a pause in today's guest blogging schedule to remind you that today is a big day on Bluefly, as the Nicole Miller Sale has started with still in store dresses at ridiculously low prices. We're talking bridesmaids dresses AND wedding gowns up to 60% off. It's a little piece of heaven right here on SMP.
The sale ends tomorrow, but seriously, I wouldn't wait.
