Get Inspired!

This week I have been totally drooling over an app on my iPhone called Pinterest. For those of you who haven't heard of it, you can also access it online at pinterest.com if you don't have an iPhone. Once your there, in order to get in you have to request an invite but they usually send you one within 24 hours. This fabulous website is like a visual blog. You can see great ideas for weddings, outfits, recipes, decorating, DIY and sooooo much more. I am OBSESSED! When you find something you love you just repin it to your own board and are able to go back and look at it later. And you can follow your friends so you can see what they are finding or creating. It is an amazing way to get inspired and come up with your own creative ideas.

Here's an adorable idea I found this week for you brides-to-be. If your having a ring bearer in your wedding, more than likely you'll get him a little pillow to carry down the aisle. I know very few brides who actually put their rings on this pillow and the pillows themselves get very pricey AND once you use it that day it will probably be put in a box to gather dust and take up space. Of course you still want the little guy to carry something because well, it's adorable! SO here's an alternative:


Isn't he CUTE! You can expand this idea in all kinds of ways. If you have more than one flower girl, have each hold an end of the sign. Or if your adventurous like my Mom you can make your own signs for the backs of your chairs at the reception. I've also seen these as directional signs to help lead the way to the wedding.


If your not so adventurous you can buy all of these types of signs on etsy.com and they'll still be handmade and beautiful. I love this personal touch and hope you'll enjoy adding it to your beautiful day.

Ciao!
