#159 Desert Buffets

Today I had some super dooper sweet news that I will share it with you sometime this week (yay!) , in the meantime I thought what better time than to do a super sweet post on desert buffet inspiration?!

Desert buffet's are yet another wonderfully fun way to incorporate personality into the day & depending on how you go about it, a big money saver too.
Also... desert is really yummy.
You probably shouldn't read this post unless you have just eaten, otherwise it could make you a bit hungry...

#141 Custom Wedding Stamps

When you have multiples upon multiples of things to do, you know what is ridiculously handy? Stamps.
Not to mention awesome & somehow both very adult + childish at the same time... Just don't ask me what on earth I mean by that?

Here's a collection of custom wedding announcements & save the dates from Love To Create Stamps...

(The following two are my favourites)

SAVE THE DATE Self  Iinking Stamp -style 6006  - custom wedding stationary SAVE THE DATE Self Inking  Stamp - style  6005- custom weddding stationary

And a return address stamp is, in my opinion, an absolute must. Having one of these is such a time saver when you hand write thank you cards to about 150 people!

The time you save is worth far more than the money you spend on these. Trust me.

#129 Poster Wedding Gift

More poster art, this time from gus and lula.
Bit cute as a wedding gift?

The small size is $14 & large is $20, custom orders are also available which could be very fun?
The sunshine lyrics poster is my favourite. All three of these would also be super sweet in a children's room!
Gus and Lula also has a blog, full of cute as a button baby photos & gorgeous home design.

#107 1950 Does Too!

To follow on from the previous post, another sublime find by my friend Eva via Vintageous (cute name huh?).
How delicious is this 1950's cocktail dress?!
Made from ivory lace & 3 layers pink organdy & with a structured bodice, i think it would make a perfect wedding dress for a garden party wedding...
I hope the lucky person who bought it for a mere $265 thinks so too!
Just more evidence that an absolutely stunning & one of a kind wedding gown needn't cost the earth... & I don't need to explain the benefits of 'recycling' right? ;)

 


Thanks for the eye candy Eva!
