<br />I know... I know... Yes, they are amazingly happy occasions when the couple starts their new life as a married couple. That part is happy.<br />
<br />
But I am often sad because that means I don't get weekly or monthly check ins with them anymore!<br />
<br />
So, I find myself watching the slideshows of weddings past as a reminder and connection to the people who have touched my life during their wedding planning process. This week I am remembering Gudrun and Todd.<br />
Their wedding was at Callanwolde Fine Arts Center in June 2011. As we approach the one year anniversary mark for Gudrun and Todd's wedding, I find myself viewing their wedding video again.<br />
<br />
Here it is. What a fantastic, and fun group. I miss them. I hope your first year has been amazing.<br />

So you're going to need all the help you can get when it comes to the language barrier during your trip. That's why we love <a href="http://questvisual.com/">this app</a>!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">If you take a picture of a sign with it, it will automatically translate for you. The best part is that it works off of an internal dictionary, so it's really fast and doesn't have to connect to the internet (and you don't get slammed with a huge data bill).</span></div>

Happy Music Monday, good people! I woke up feeling quite nostalgic this morning and thought there would be no better First Dance song suggestion than this by the ultimate swooner.<br />
<br />
One of our couples this coming weekend is using this song to speak to each other during their First Dance. How sweet.<br />
<br />Enjoy!<br />

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">One of the items on every Wedding To Do List is "Plan Honeymoon." We’re
going to try and make this task a little easier for you with our new Honeymoon
Destination series! In every Honeymoon post we’ll give you two great options,
one for a higher budget and one for a lower budget!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Today we’re featuring
some cold weather locales: Banff National Park in Canada and Colorado, USA<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Banff National Park
is less than 2 hours from Calgary, Alberta, Canada and can accommodate any
adventure seeker's need for thrill with hiking, whitewater rafting, and of
course skiing. The views from <a href="http://www.fairmont.com/lakelouise" target="_blank">The Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise</a> are truly
breathtaking and as one of The Travel Channel “World’s Top 10 Honeymoon Hot Spots<span style="color: #646464;">.</span>” They’re sure to know how to pamper
newlyweds.</span></div>

<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">If your honeymoon
budget doesn’t quite get you to Canada you can find much of the same activities
and accommodations in Colorado! Most people think of skiing when they hear
Colorado but it can also be a very romantic honeymoon destination! Think of
being cuddled up in front of the fire after a long day of snowy adventures (or
a long day at the spa, let’s be honest). Colorado can be a very affordable
honeymoon option. We found a 5-night stay at <span lang="EN"><a href="http://chipeta.com/" target="_blank">The Chipeta Sun Lodge & Spa</a> in Ridgway
including spa treatments and dinner for under $1500!</span></span></div>

</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I am a huge believer in using spaces and objects in ways they were never intended. For parties, I often use an upside down bowl to serve as a riser for a platter in the food area. I also have been known to use colorful, unique drapery as table runners. Today, let's talk about using items that are meant to be used from the ground up, rather than from the ceiling down. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Anyone who saw the newest Twilight movie was in awe of
Edward and Bella’s wedding, and if you happen to be obsessed with weddings you
watched that scene over and over taking in all the details. Possibly the most
breathtaking detail was the floral canopy under which the ceremony and
reception took place. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/238127899017105243/" target="_blank"><img border="0" height="265" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmbl-gh-hOkfIxm_93PvCn_y9prR48cBX6wx-jNRY265wmSf97yonvQqFNwinqaDLUy6hycOgcZofggheha0UnNdNsr1IbM5OmRVHC-AH57G9_bhdwZbrI-Rezp84rkFwGvE5PP4-PGSgP/s400/Twilight+Wedding.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Let’s face it, most of us don’t have the Hollywood-sized
budget to make this look happen but there are ways to bring some of this look into your own wedding
without a team of vampires doing the manual labor. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Suspended flowers or arrangements can be used instead of or
in combination with centerpieces placed on the table. Or maybe place mirrors
down the center of the table to reflect the details up above.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Draping the ceiling gives a light, romantic feeling no
matter the theme, creating interest in a usually boring area. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Hanging fairy lights in the trees gives a magical, wisteria
look similar to the canopy in the movie. You can also string the lights instead
of letting them hang to create a different but still romantic look.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

But on this, I stand corrected. The lyrics couldn't be better for a processional.<br />

Take a listen.<br />

Wedding trends are constantly changing; every year brings something new. This month we’ve collected some of the current trends and we’re asking you whether you Like it, Love it, or Leave it!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<span style="color: #ff0999;"><strong>White Attendants Dresses</strong> </span>– Ever since the Royal Wedding we’ve seen white bridesmaid’s dress. Pippa Middleton looked fabulous in her fitted, white dress but is it a trend that’s going to last? It’s always been taboo to wear white to a wedding unless you’re the bride so as not to steal her spotlight. What do you think? Like it, love it, or leave it?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/238127899017048931/" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="154" src="https://d2q0qd5iz04n9u.cloudfront.net/_ssl/proxy.php/http/gallery.mailchimp.com/28524b764908d37110702c817/files/White_Bridesmaid_Dresses.jpg" style="border: 0px currentColor; display: inline; height: 154px; line-height: 100%; text-decoration: none; width: 230px;" width="230" /></a> <a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/238127899017048937/" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="154" src="https://d2q0qd5iz04n9u.cloudfront.net/_ssl/proxy.php/http/gallery.mailchimp.com/28524b764908d37110702c817/files/White_Bridesmaid_Party.jpg" style="border: 0px currentColor; display: inline; height: 154px; line-height: 100%; text-decoration: none; width: 231px;" width="231" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<span style="color: #ff0999;"><strong>Cowboy Boots</strong></span> – Attendants and even brides everywhere have been foregoing the traditional pair of heels or flats for something a little more memorable: cowboy boots. We’re seeing this trend especially paired with short bridesmaid’s dresses to really show off the boot. Like it, love it, or leave it?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/238127899017064267/" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="162" src="https://d2q0qd5iz04n9u.cloudfront.net/_ssl/proxy.php/http/gallery.mailchimp.com/28524b764908d37110702c817/files/Bridesmaids_Cowboy_Boots.jpg" style="border: 0px currentColor; display: inline; height: 162px; line-height: 100%; text-decoration: none; width: 243px;" width="243" /></a> <a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/238127899017048961/" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="187" src="https://d2q0qd5iz04n9u.cloudfront.net/_ssl/proxy.php/http/gallery.mailchimp.com/28524b764908d37110702c817/files/Cowboy_Boots.png.jpg" style="border: 0px currentColor; display: inline; height: 187px; line-height: 100%; text-decoration: none; width: 213px;" width="213" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<span style="color: #ff0999;"><strong>Textured Florals</strong></span> – Succulents, billy balls, thistle, dusty miller. That list may look strange but these are the floral trends we’re starting to see everywhere. Brides are choosing to combine traditional flowers with these more textural additions to create interest. Adding textured florals definitely brings individuality to an industry dominated by roses. Your thoughts? Like it, love it, or leave it?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<span style="color: #ff0999;"><strong>Push Pops</strong></span> – The new dessert trend sweeping the industry now is push-pops! Like the ice cream versions from your childhood, these are filled with layered cakes (strawberry shortcake seems to be a favorite)! Guests will be wowed by this creative new dessert presentation but what about you? Like it, love it, or leave it?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<span style="color: #ff0999;"><strong>Chandeliers</strong></span> – Chandeliers used to be confined to ballrooms but the new trend is to incorporate chandeliers into any venue, even outside spaces! Brides are hanging them from trees and arches and covering them with candles and flowers. No matter what the theme, a chandelier seems to fit! Do chandeliers fit your vision? Like it, love it, or leave it?</div>

<br />
<span style="color: #ff0999;"><strong>Flower Girl Tutu Dresses</strong> </span>– Let’s face it, kids could wear anything and still steal the show but the newest trend for flower girl attire is putting her in a tutu dress. This is just an extended version of a tutu that sits higher on the body. In one of these dresses your flower girl will look adorable but is it polished enough for your wedding? Like it, love it, or leave it?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
<span style="color: #ff0999;"><strong>Shot Glasses Serving Ware</strong></span> – A few years ago we were introduced to martini glasses used to serve food, most commonly mashed potatoes, now we’re seeing shooters. Caterers are using these to serve soup, milk with a cookie on the rim, shrimp cocktail, and more. These seem like the perfect portion but would you agree? Like it, love it, or leave it?</div>

<strong><span style="color: #ff0999;">Tangerine Tango</span></strong> – Pantone’s color of the year was recently revealed as being Tangerine Tango.

<span style="color: #ff0999;"><strong>Colored Wedding Dresses</strong></span> – White may always be the traditional bridal color but more and more brides are choosing dresses with a bit of color. Vera Wang’s Fall 2012 collection is done in nudes and blacks! Black may be a little too unconventional for most brides which is why we’re also seeing lots of blush tones. Reese Witherspoon even chose a stunning pink dress for her recent wedding. Are you going out of the box or staying traditional with the white color family? Like it, love it, or leave it?<br />
