The Enchanted Forest Wedding

So I just saw the movie Maleficent staring Angelina Jolie and I must have watched it 10 times since. As a small child I have always loved the magical and mystical fairytales and what a better theme to have for your wedding day. I can only imagine the excitement an event planner would have creating this enchanted forest. Brides today are really thinking outside the box and I'm seeing less and less of the old traditional. I love this about the couples today! They are making their wedding day stand out and personal to them. 

I have to share a few photos I just love from Sean Parker and Alexandra Lenas’ 2013 Enchanted Forest Wedding. Photo credits to Vanity Fair

 

If I were to plan a wedding for this theme I would have a hard time trying to pick an invitation. Keeping with the same feel of this theme here are some wedding invitations that I think you will be happy with.  There are several from Zazzle designer Jinaiji as she really captures this exact feel. However I have several from other designers too.


Zazzle's Wedding Stationery designer Jinaji has a way of capturing the mystical feel right to the paper. You would almost think you could step right into the design. Here are several designs from Jinaji.

Personlized Wedding Day Koozies are the Perfect Favor!

Ok let's face it. Everyone loves a receiving a favor at weddings. I'll be honest, I've never been a big fan of those awful tasting white jordan almonds which I would always try again thinking maybe I would like them better the next time. But lets talk drink koozies! I love them and every guest at the wedding will too even if they aren't even a beer drinker! You can personalize the design with your names and date and maybe have a cute design that fits your wedding theme. This will ensure your guest will always remember your wedding and anniversaries!

Having koozies at your wedding will definitely set a fun tone - perfect for outside weddings and more casual wedding. I'll be honest I'd even love this favor at a more formal wedding. If you are planning a destination wedding it's great to add this to the guest bag of goodies you leave at the hotel for them. I'm sure they will use it right away poolside!

Here are some great wedding designs that I'm sure your guests will love!

Watercolors are Trending for Weddings!

The big trend this year seems to be the watercolor invitations whether it's hand-painted or digitally created! I saw the trend starting to blossom last year and it's in full force for this wedding season! If you had a floral wedding theme in mind you should really consider finding a beautiful watercolor design. I'm featuring some great watercolor wedding collections as well as single designs and not only floral themes. You'd be surprised how just a slash of watercolor across an invitation has a classy fun feel! Is there one here that is your favorite?
