Eco- Lux Letterpress

All I can say is when I stumbled upon Copper Willow my jaw dropped. I could not get enough of their stunning images. I love their style, story and of course their breath taking correspondence. Oh, and I cannot forget their amazing calligrapher. They offer custom letterpress invitations as well as, note cards, place cards and just cards.

:::Exciting News:::

Hello my sweet brides I am so excited this Monday morning. Today I woke up and began my daily ritual of scrolling through my favorite blogs and low and behold yours truly was gracing the post today on Eco-Beautiful Weddings.

I am so excited to be partnering with Katie From Eco- Beautiful. I am also happy to announce that I am now donating 10% of my design package proceeds to Hope 4 Kids Int. I am so inspired by all the work Tom is doing with Hope 4 Kids and my Dad has traveled with them to Uganda and saw first hand all that they do. Hope 4 Kids is a great organization I really trust the money truly goes straight to the kids.

I am going to leave you today with a swoon worthy e- session from none other than Stephanie Fay. As you all know I adore anything vintage and this shoot literally took my breath away.

Quick Change

I love when the bride make her grand entrance and all heads turn as she walks down the isle. What can be better than that moment? Having it occur twice! If you have always dreamed about doing a quick change before your reception into something short and fun, I have economical alternative.

New Green Spin on Favors

Favors have evolved so much since the Jordan almonds wrapped in tulle from the late 1980's. Today's selection of favors are vast. I have come across some amazing ideas for "green" favors. I love the organic earthy feel of these ideas. Any one of them would go great with an eco-friendly wedding.
