Mamma Mia Inspired Greek Wedding


Whilst on the subject of theming weddings based on wonderful films, my thoughts turned to the wonderful Mamma Mia film with the beautiful wedding. I have to admit I am addicted the film and have watched 3 nights in a row recently! I have put together this inspiration board based on a romantic greek wedding. I think there will be more as there are no butterflies on this one!

I'll have a cup of that


Okay,I'm loving these coffee stencils thatI found on Etsy that could be used with any hot frothy drink! Wouldn't this be such a cute way to propose or to answer a proposal? All you gentlemen out there looking for something original...here you go!

and then this cup...what guy wouldn't want this to show up in his hot cocoa? It's like a modern day version of the "tonight" or "not tonight" pillow. :)

and what follows the "cup of Love" but a little cup of this? Ha! How cute is that? It's like a fortune telling cup. Darling.
Lastly, who doesn't need a little cup of this every once in awhile? oH, this could have come in handy so many times. You know those days you just don't want to talk about it..and you just want to hand them a warm drink that says it all?

I'm trying to figure out a way to use these as favors. Any ideas? It's so cute for the coffee or hot chocolate lovers out there. Again to take a look go HERE


Wizard of Oz Wedding theme





This is my latest work on the Wizard of Oz theme with a Kansas country twist, rainbow cupcakes and the dogs of course! I also found this fab image of red wedding shoes on Style Me Pretty that I had to throw in!
It is strange as I have had this theme in my head for ages and my mother rang to tell us it was on tv, we all sat down the other day to watch this wonderful film, my little girl loved it, I thought she would be petrified of the witch, as I was as a little girl, but she was so excited and loved it!
Having themed events, that have many stages, my obvious choice would be to have a yellow aisle runner, the yellow brick road, and perhaps the Emerald city for the evening reception, this will be worked on!

Spanish style table setting




I am in love with this table setting found on the fabulous Once Wed blog, it has been created by Courtney at Flush Designs, it has a wonderfully rustic spanish feel to it, the jug of sangria certainly helps! Loads more images on Once Wed and Flush Designs. Notice the bird theme has cropped up again definitely a trend for 2009.

Not on the High Street




I have come across this fab website www.notonthehighstreet.com perfect for anyone getting married that is looking for those quirky, lovely details. Full of decorations, well worth a visit. In fact the letters on my post below Vintage Wizard of Oz the letters on the caravan are from this website.

Vintage Wizard of Oz style wedding





Whilst searching for Wizard of Oz ideas for weddings I came across this lovely wedding, it has some of the elements of a Wizard of Oz theme and perhaps a cherry theme, still working on it but wanted to share these lovely images with you. Unfortunately I have not kept the details of where I found these so if you are the owner please let me know so I can add details to this post.




Preston Bailey - My Idol!







More fabulous table settings from the amazing Preston Bailey, I love his approach of thinking outside the box, my favourite is this water centrepiece, submerging the flowers in a huge container on the tables. Such a simple yet effective idea.
