Next up, Jewelry...

...or as some like to call it...THE BLING!

Aside from that spectacular rock your husband  to be gave you, you need to shine too.

Remember, when you take pictures, you want to stand out, not blend in. From the earrings, to the necklace to the bracelet, everything has to be...whats that word...oh yeah...FLAWLESS!

Let's see what Etsy has in store for us today...

A lovely vintage look for your right hand. Small enough where it wont take attention away from your ring, but big enough for all those compliments :)

These earrings have such a unique shape. The work is just right so the attention stays on your face. Remember ladies, you don't want HUGE earrings hanging from your ears. The attention will be drawn to them instead of your smile. Work with your hairstylist when you find your perfect pair. They will know how to work the earring style with your hair do.

I'm totally in love with the elegance of this necklace. If I could wear it I would (probably wear it all day around my house while down housework!). I LOVE IT! 




Looking for something a little more simple...

Happy Planning to all the brides to be!

It's Monday...the Wedding Week Begins

I promised an all week wedding this week and I figured I start off with one item that we cannot do without, our hair piece.

Be it a simple flower, or a vintage hair clip/pin or an extravagant one of  a kind tiara, we all need one.

Here are a few of my favorites...

 I think it would go fantastic if you have a simple streamlined dress but you want to add a bit of flair to the look. You can put it in your hair or even add it to your dress.

This piece speaks for itself. A vintage look for the modern bride.


From Acpetrille.etsy.com 
A Victorian Inspired Piece. This particular store is one of my favorites. They have beautiful handmade hairpieces for every taste.


From waterproofvalentines's shop
A headband made from tailors paper with a touch of vintage in the middle of the flower.  Amazing!

And finally...couldn't end this without at least posting something I used at my own wedding.
For the ceremony, it's tradition in my family to wear mantilla veils such as this beautiful example...

For all the brides to be, Congratulations and Happy Planning :)

I would love to hear your thoughts.

Sniffing thru Etsy I found...

I am a newly married gal :) who realized that merging her stuff with her husband makes for a HUGE mess.
Our house looks like 2 apartments exploded on one another and everything is everywhere with NOTHING matching.
So, sniffing through Etsy, I found a few items that scream "Happy HOME!"

I'll share them with you...



I love this one by Contemporarydreams.etsy.com

It looks lovely and welcoming on a bare wall.





This lamp is by JstFlowerGirlArt.etsy. A beautiful hand painted lamp I'm sure will go just
perfect in any place you would like to show it off.

And for the bedroom...




I am LOVING this design! It's perfect. By DuvetLove.etsy.com
