The Beauty of Baby’s Breath at a Wedding

If the words “simple but elegant” describe your wedding aesthetic, then look no further then baby’s breath. This beautiful floral is just that. It can be incorporated into almost any facet of your wedding, is easy to work with, has a great price point, and more importantly: looks fantastic.

This week I decided to challenge myself to pick one flower type, and base an entire wedding around it. I wanted to choose something that I believe to be underused and underestimated. Baby’s breath fit the challenge!

Here is what I came up with for this challenge:

Peach + Cranberry Wedding Ideas

The other night I was up late on Pinterest, like you do, and I stumbled onto this gorgeous wedding bouquet with peach and cranberry flowers.

I don’t know what it was about it, but I was completely captured by the beautiful colors and the soft elegance it radiated. I knew I just had to create a wedding inspiration board where this bouquet would be at home.

So without further ado…..a peach and cranberry wedding:

22 Wedding Bouquet Memory Charms Ideas + Inspiration

Wedding Bouquet In Memory Of Charms

Wedding Bouquet In Memory Of Charms

“The BIG day.”

“The biggest day of your life.”

“The most important day of your life.”

These are often the phrases we hear when talking about weddings. It is such a special day for the couple, their family, and their friends. Though too often there are loved ones who are not able to be there, whether they are unable to attend, or have passed on. Parents, grandparents, family, even Spot the family dog.

One way brides remember their loved ones is by adorning their bouquets with memory charms. There are so many options and styles of memory charms and even more ways to incorporate them that I thought I would put together this roundup post to help inspire brides everywhere.

This kit is sold by Perfect Pendants Plus on Etsy and includes everything you need to make your own charm.

Cute as a Button – Baby Shower Ideas

Hello again!

This week’s inspiration board is themed “Cute as a Button”. A sweet, baby shower for the crafty soon-to-be momma!

The mommy-to-be I had in mind for this baby shower is sweet, loves simplicity, and is a craft lover. With plenty of ideas for onesie decorating at baby showers, I thought a cute twist on it would be to have all of the guests bring a small portion of baby fabric (since a little goes a long way with a baby) and give it to the crafty mom-to-be to use in her future baby crafts.

I know you are dying to look at the cute baby shower ideas, so here it is:

Mint Green + Gold Wedding {Inspiration}

When I was getting this week’s inspiration board ready to share with you, I ran into some trouble.

I KNEW I wanted to share an inspiration board with mint green, white, and light gold’s. Naturally, the first thing that came to my mind was a wedding, because I love wedding design. But as I was working on the inspiration board more and more, I knew this week’s post could be for more than just weddings.

I’ve been envisioning spring baby showers, perhaps an afternoon luncheon or even a birthday party with aspects of this week’s inspiration. Maybe even a bridal shower party?

So with that in mind, enjoy this week’s inspiration board:
