Moss Monograms for Weddings

I am loving these custom moss monogram letters for weddings designed by Spotted Leopard. These would be a very nice touch to add to a french country or vintage inspired wedding. The designer can also make them large enough to adorn the entrance doors for a church wedding. Have a look at the ones featured below!

Of course, after your wedding, you can reuse them by incorporating them into your home decor. Perhaps, above your fireplace on the mantel or as wall décor.

So not only are these moss monogram letters a great way to personalize your wedding, but they can serve as nice keepsake from your wedding. To view more custom moss creations by Spotted Leopard, please visit their Etsy shop.

Vintage-Inspired – Couture Bridal Hair Accessories

*This is a re-post and content has been modified. I first blogged about birdcage veils and couture hair accessories back in 2008 when they were initially becoming popular among modern brides, who were looking for an alternative to the traditional and outdated wedding veil.
With the renewed popularity of birdcage veils, I am sure that more brides will sport them down the aisle for the 2010 wedding season. However, if you are truly into couture hair accessories, I suggest that checkout bridal hats designed by Artikal Handcrafted Millinery. I learned about them back over the summer and felt in love with their collection.

These modern styled veils and hair accessories are vintage-inspired, but with a modern twist. I, especially love the texture of and little details that went into these designs. Don’t you? They are perfect for high-end bridal photo session.

Vintage-Inspired – 2010 Wedding Shoes by Di Hassall

Are you a vintage-inspired bride?

If so, I invite you to check out the 2010 wedding shoe collection by Di Hassall. In her newest collection, she utilitizes “luxurious fabrics from soft silk chiffon and ethereal organza, pleated and embroided,” including wedding shoes adorned with Swarovki crystals.

These are a few of my favorites from Di Hassall 2010 wedding shoe collection. What’s great about Di Hassall’s bridal shoe collection is that each shoe is handmade and you can get your wedding date branded on the suede leather sole of the shoes.

Inspiration for Weddings – Flea Markets & Antique Shops

In yesterday’s blog post, I mentioned that “if you really want to get creative and personalize your wedding, then you need to think outside of the box.” What that means is that you need to look for unconventional sources of inspiration for your wedding.
Next on my list of things to do to get your creative juices flowing for your wedding design is to visit a few flea markets and antique shops. Whether you are looking for unique inspiration for your wedding ceremony, a themed cocktail hour, or your wedding reception, flea markets and antique shops are filled with quaint inspiration. Especially, if you are looking to host a country-style or southern wedding, a vintage inspired wedding, and even a green wedding.
