I always look to BHLDN for inspiration because they carry gorgeous dresses that are unique and items that are fun, modern and whimsy. I scanned their pages for new dresses and other bridal attire that came in and I am again, highly impressed. Here I share my faves. Enjoy!

The save the dates for your big day are the first peek into your wedding. Besides letting your guests know they are invited it shares where and when you chose to have your wedding. I feel they should always reflect the bride and groom and the theme or style of your event. If they are not cohesive with the formal invitation it gets a little confusing.

I have seen some, along with the invites, that didn’t go with the wedding at all and it just doesn’t make sense to me. I know not everyone is a designer, but that is why you have a designer create them for you. It’s just disappointing when nothing really goes together. It doesn’t have to be matchy matchy but it should all have the same feel. It just shows the event wasn’t planned right or the bride and groom don’t care much about details.

Well, here are the save the dates I created so far. You can find them all in my Etsy shop. I try to offer a variety of styles that appeal to everyone. There are more to come soon! You can always stay updated on new items in my shop by checking out my Pinterest board.

As you know, I have been creating a whole line of event decor as well as invites and save the dates. I am working on some more postcard save the dates because people really seem to love them but I wanted to share the three wedding suites I currently have listed in my shop.

They all include an RSVP card as well as a direction card and white classic envelopes. I offer three other choices for the envelopes at no charge and the option to switch out the direction card for a reception card if the ceremony is in a church. And of course plenty of add ons to choose from. With them all printed on 120lb wove paper by me, my clients are getting the best service and materials, guaranteed.

Any item in my shop can be custom designed to match certain colors, etc., as well as creating a completely new design. Check them out and spread the word!

I have been loving this shop for awhile and now that they have a bridal selection, I must showcase them as shop of the month. Ruche is a vintage inspired shop that carries everything from clothing and accessories to home decor items. There is so much to choose from and all are priced very well. I also happen to love their website. So pretty!

Husband and wife team, Mai and Josh Olivo, created Ruche from top to bottom. Ideas started brewing in 2005 and three years later shopruche.com was born. Thanks to Mai and her determination to find stylish clothes and accessories, us girls who adore vintage flair have a beautiful place to find things we love. All that hard work paid off for sure. Thanks Mai & Josh!

Here are some of my favorites that express my true style. Enjoy!
