Bouquets & Centerpieces

August 31st, 2006 @ 6:54 pm by Miss Sunflower

I’m totally in love with this particular bridal bouquet.

I think the gown that I might be going with - if it doesn’t make me look like a heifer - is ivory, and the colors of these flowers will be magnificent.

Something a little similar, but smaller it seems.

I absolutely love peonies, but my venue wedding planner Francesca made it sound like they might be more expensive…

Yelp!

August 31st, 2006 @ 6:22 pm by Mrs. Poppy

I am currently on a site called Yelp! - it has reviews on businesses by real people like you and I. I use it a lot especially for wedding related things such as invitation/print shops and bakeries. So if you’re ever on it, go look at my reviews, add me or whatever else! I like it since it has a bunch of cities and you…

Spanx: Which One?

August 31st, 2006 @ 6:17 pm by Mrs. Bee

We’ve talked about Spanx to death here on weddingbee, and I’ve heard nothing but raves about them. But now I really need your help deciding which one to purchase because I’m planning on wearing them to the next wedding I attend (the couple reads weddingbee so now they’re gonna know I’m wearing Spanx! ).

These are the three I’m deciding between:

Diamonds are a man’s best friend too?

August 31st, 2006 @ 3:01 pm by Mrs. Spider

Mr. Spider has long said that he wants diamonds on his wedding band. I thought he meant small dispersed diamonds in one of those uber modern bands like this:

Blue Nile: Platinum Burnished Diamond Band

Worried that he might be thinking more along the lines of a P. Diddy blinged out pinky ring, we went down to Chinatown this past weekend to cruise the jewelry shops for…

Also, I'm an obsessive compulsive when it comes to crafts. And not just the ordinary kind of obsessive compulsive who needs to have everything even and aligned. No. I've gilded the heads of pins to make sure they looked properly antique. Gilded them. Then coated them in german glass glitter. I am that crazy.

Secret Love

August 31st, 2006 @ 1:54 pm by Mrs. Caterpillar

I have secret love for opera length gloves. I especially like these from Carolina Amato because of the three pearl buttons at the wrist.

I have absolutely no use for them, and they would probably make me look like a crazy ninja or something (that model isn’t helping any), but I have great love for them nonetheless.

Available at Nordstrom and Perfect Details (for about $20 less).

New Site Redesign

August 31st, 2006 @ 1:31 pm by Mrs. Bee

Today we’re going live with our new site redesign!

This was our hardest redesign yet. We went through six iterations, trying to balance all the feedback we’ve gotten with the business needs of the site:

  • We wanted to create room for small ad sponsorships
  • But we didn’t want the site to look too busy or cramped
  • Plus we got feedback that the tags module shouldn’t be public
  • And a bunch…

An Old Friend

Last night Mr. Spider and I met with our officiant, Pastor April Gismondi. I am Buddhist but Mr. Spider and his family are not religious, so we were looking for a flexible officiant willing and able to incorporate some Buddhist philosophies. I found Pastor April on the Long Island Weddings forum among raves about her personalized and natural style and her ability to make couples…

Modern Invitations

Looking for a modern invitation? I just stumbled across Blue Skies and Daisies, which offers both wedding invitations and wedding Web sites. They do both custom and “ready to wear invites,” all in sleek styles. Looks like the run for about $7 a set. Here are some that I thought were cute:
