GET THE LOOK: Snake Themed Wedding

So this year is the Year of the Horse and 2013 was the Year of the Snake... so only another 11 years and we'll be back to snakes.  Anyone planning a snake themed wedding here are a few ideas!

GET THE LOOK: Bunny Themed Wedding

Rabbits / Bunny are big for spring / summer decorations this year... add a few to your 2014 Wedding and be on trend!

Depending on how you go about this you can avoid looking like a children's' party, over Easter overkill.

For those American followers of mine, go big on Peeps - who doesn't love their marshmallow goodness :-)

Burrito Breakfast

According to Wiki, the Wedding Breakfast is:

wedding breakfast is a dinner given to the bridebridegroom, and guests at the wedding reception that follows a wedding in the United Kingdom, Germany, Austria, Scandinavia and some English-speaking countries. The Compact Oxford Dictionary[1] lists the phrase as only “British”, and the Merriam-Webster online dictionary[2] does not list it at all. Wedding breakfast custom is occasionally spotted in touristic countries - especially ones that are destination for tourists from English speaking countries. Countries like Poland[3]have prepared offers to cater especially for wedding tourists.
Nowadays the wedding breakfast is not normally a morning meal, so its name can be confusing. The name is claimed[4] to have arisen from the fact that in pre-Reformation times the wedding service was usually a Eucharistic Mass and that the bride and bridegroom would therefore have been fasting before the wedding in order to be eligible to receive the sacrament of Holy Communion. After the wedding ceremony was complete, the priest would bless and distribute some wine, cakes, and sweetmeats, which were then handed round to the company, including the bride and groom. This distribution of food and drink was therefore a literal “break fast” for the bride and groom, though others in attendance would not necessarily take Communion and therefore would not necessarily have been fasting. Since usage of the phrase cannot be shown to date back earlier than the first half of the nineteenth century however, a pre-16th-century origin seems unlikely.

So I would like a burrito wedding breakfast, you could have it family style / buffet style / sit down / 'bar' or van so many options, so many foods, get some margaritas!  AWESOME. 










GET THE LOOK: Mexican Themed Wedding

So last night I had burritos for dinner, and I love them so much it got me thinking could you have a burrito bar / Mexican fiesta themed wedding breakfast - or just go all out and have a Mexican themed wedding!

Lots of colour, lots of fun and lots of food.

Just because it's VALENTINES day on Thursday!

I love Valentines Day, all the love and happiness... yes it's a bit of a bummer for some of us single ladies (and gents), but it really should remind you that you haven't got love in your life currently.  I think it's best to enjoy the love you see around you!!

So just because I can, and I love pretty stuff, a few Valentines Pics.

GET THE LOOK: Peppermint Themed Wedding

As I sit here drinking Peppermint tea, after reviewing the top trends for 2013 I realised I had a dedicated Mint post, but not Peppermint so below is my take on a Peppermint themed wedding.  Big for S/S 2013!

Peppermint is a slightly lighter and bluer mint colour, and great for full coloured wedding, just the decorations, just the dresses or just as an ascent to another colour!
