Is anyone else feeling like this week kicked some serious wedding booty? Honestly though, just when you think you’ve seen it all, a DIY bride whips up 200+ jars of homemade peach jam favors! I love jam! It truly thrills me to know that I can login to Style Me Pretty day after day to get a healthy dose of creativity. Be sure to take a look back at this week’s talented brides and vendors, just in case you missed that sweet, little something… Perfect favors by Grapevine

Wrap It Up Pretty + Winners!
Source Holy moly… let’s take a deep breath here… My lovely little wedding countdown has just informed me that we have 100, yes one hundred, days left until the wedding! Wow… this means that as of tomorrow, we are officially in the double digits of our countdown to the big day. OMG! When we originally started our planning, it seemed like that ticker was at an impossibly high number, but now it seems like we are getting down to the home stretch! 100 days is still a decent amount of time to accomplish some things… and today really made me realize that I need to kick it into high gear! Mommy Buttons and I made an extensive to-do list during our 13 hour car ride from Virginia to Florida last weekend (oh yeah! That’s right… surprise! I now live in Florida again – goodbye snowy north, I will not miss you!). I was hoping that it would only take a short amount of time to brainstorm, but I realized after about 4 hours of wedding chatter that the list is relatively lengthy, and I need to buckle down! It was enough to get me off my butt and start getting things done! I’m hoping to report back some positive activity now that a fire has officially been lit under my behind! Did you fear/are you fearful of reaching the 100 day mark on your wedding countdown

I’m one of those people that loves reading horoscopes. I believe I’ve had brief encounters with the paranormal, and I’m a firm believer in fate, destiny, and the idea that we’re not quite as in control as we think we are. I believe in signs and intuition and I don’t think that there’s a logical explanation for everything

Finding a band was something I originally asked Mr. Paisley to do, but gradually, as summer turned to fall, and Mr. Paisley got wrapped up in teaching and his Ph.D

Source So the time has come, Miss Pug said, to talk of many things Of shoes , and ships , and sealing wax , of cabbages (or artichokes ) and kings… or UNDERTHINGS! The process of planning a wedding is akin to falling down the rabbit hole with Alice—a little world filled with twists, turns and surprises that you never knew existed until you became a planning bride.

From a pretty young age, I loved handcrafting cards and paper crafts. It started with hamburger fold, hand-drawn construction paper cards to cardstock and calligraphy, to my scrapbook inspired cards. Please excuse my amateur photography skills

Now that my shoe obsession has been properly established , you can fully appreciate the story of how I found the perfect wedding shoes that weren’t. Upon getting engaged last March, the shoe search began. Around the same time I also began looking for wedding inspiration pictures, and looked at everything tagged “purple” on TheKnot.com .

A lot of people may not know this, but prior to moving to Los Angeles, I spent a few years living on the island of Maui. And truth be told, that’s where one might even find a little piece of my heart floating around. This is especially the case when I see blissful images like the ones below from Beloved Weddings

So call me frugal, but I made favor boxes that came out costing a grand total of 3 cents each! I took a favor box I got from a wedding and took it apart to use as a template. Then I drew out the design on a bunch of Michaels’ discounted sheets of 18″X18″ paper in one of our wedding colors. It took a while, but Mr.

To me these are images of the process, because they’re not necessarily of people. Rather, they’re images of people throughout the wedding day process. You see “process” through these pictures because the people are doing more than going through the motions

Mr. Lace and I looked high and low for a great, yet budget-friendly photographer. After looking through recommendations of friends, combing through wedding websites and reading and following blogs, I was ready to give up and just settle for a DECENT photographer, despite the fact that many of our married friends said to make sure we got a good photographer no matter the cost

Guests can share their candid photos from your wedding! Photo from The Wedding Lens! A friend from The Green Hanger Shop recently asked me about how couples can let their guests know about their online photo albums . After all, one of the easiest aspects of using The Wedding Lens is that you just enter in people’s email addresses and they get a notification (and reminders!) so that the couple doesn’t have to worry about contacting people individually.
