How cute are these? I just found a website called Ruche that has a wedding department with all these pretty wedding apparel and accessories.  A very cute vintage online boutique started off as a home based hobby by a newly wed couple.  It supports a lot of small boutiques and indie designers, which is what I most like about them.  These wedding pumps and wedding heels are at their bridal collection, which has everything from bridal dresses, bridesmaid dresses, wedding veils, wedding jewerly and etc.  Definitely worth checking out.  I’ll post more later with other products that they showcase.

Here’s a little basic knowledge on popular engagement ring styles.  Before you walk into a jewelry store, do your studies so that you can make the most time of your visit, instead of trying to figure out what kind of rings are available.  Solitaire engagement rings are a popular choice for elegant, classic look.  Halo rings not only adds more bling to your finger but makes the center diamond look much bigger, etc etc. You got to try on a few different styles of engagement rings too, because some styles may not accentuate the curves of your fingers like you imagined it to.

Who doesn’t love food trucks? I think everyone from kids to adults can get excited over seeing a food truck pass by, wondering what kind of food they serve, and where they’re going to stop by.  Having all that fun in your wedding will just keep everyone excited and entertained.  It may also become a great way to save money on caterer plus any other charges that are required, and yet still having selection for your guests to choose from.

I love brides who replaces their veil with a floral bridal hair piece.  It has this goddess-like, elegant essence that gives them so much power to their whole look.  And with the trending vintage, classic weddings these days, bridal hair pieces seems to be the way to go.

This site is awesome! There are so many printable products at Wedding Chicks where you can type in what you need to without any other software.  You can customize colors as well!!  I wonder why I didn’t know about this way before my wedding.  It would have been much helpful.  This guestbook is a popping trend where your guests can imprint their thumbs with water based ink, and you can choose for them to write their name on it or just keep it a thumbnail.  Find this printable poster here

These are what we made for our wedding.  Bird cage hanging on a ribbon.

Of course, there are always rebellious guests that print their thumbs outside the designated area, for ex INSIDE THE CAGE.  tsk tsk.  It might be a good idea for you to print a small picture of what it’s suppose to look like.  Oh and I used these inks.

Dessert tables at weddings and events are so much fun.  Not only is it filled with goodies, it’s fun to look at!  One of the easiest way to decorate an empty space in your wedding venue is a dessert table.  And the best part is, it’s so easy to make it look nice.  A few plates of dessert of your choice, that you can even purchase at regular supermarkets, a few puffy flower decorations or some kind of vertical centerpiece and voila!  Dessert table is a great place to have your guests mingle as well.

One of a very popping wedding theme trend is barn wedding.  A few reasons why barn weddings are so popular is because of its natural lighting, high ceiling, and the fact that it’s such a contemporary idea.  Using the rustic feel of the venue, you can incorporate its natural wood and rust look to your wedding.  Just using Christmas lights, you can make the space come to life.  Barn weddings are perfect for outdoor settings too.  A lot of color for your photography, fresh air and lots of space to decorate.
