Coral Beach Wedding Guest Book

noreply@blogger.com (Amber) — Wed, 13 Mar 2013 16:13:00 +0000

In honor of spring break, I thought I’d share an adorable, custom designed beach guest book today for Wedded Bliss Wednesday. I'm pretty confident that this couple is going to be nothing but blissful.

Echo and her hubbie, Jason, got married in Cabo, and wanted a pretty, coral guest book with a non-cheesy beach theme. I think we pulled it off, and don’t you LOVE this color scheme?

I’m also loving the fact that the couple met on a golf course, and reflected that in their engagement shots. So cute.

Congratulations to the newlyweds. We loved working with you! And happy upcoming spring break everyone!

Mishaps Make the Memories: A Proposal Gone Wrong...then Right

noreply@blogger.com (Amber) — Mon, 25 Feb 2013 16:01:00 +0000

Today's memorable mishap didn't happen at the wedding. It happened during the proposal. It doesn't get more botched than this. Think machine guns, Mexican police, and a ring sinking in the ocean. In the end, though, the happy couple has quite the story to tell, don't you think?

Happy Monday everyone. I hope you enjoy this proposal mishap story!

A Cute Marriage Proposal in Honor of Valentine's Day!

noreply@blogger.com (Amber) — Thu, 14 Feb 2013 15:00:00 +0000

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! I hope you are spending it surrounded by those you love most.

In honor of Cupid, and hearts and everything ooey-gooey, I thought we'd post this week's Forever Friday marriage proposal a day early.

I hope you enjoy this cute surprise marriage proposal, and a big congratulations to the happy couple!

Wedded Bliss Wednesday: An Elegant Wedding Guest Book

noreply@blogger.com (Amber) — Wed, 06 Feb 2013 16:28:00 +0000

Laura and John are one of those cute couples that are a joy to work with. You can tell just by glancing at their photos how happy they are together. Perfect to feature on our day celebrating wedded bliss!

When they came to me asking for an elegant custom guest book for their military wedding, I set to work designing something that was as classy as they deserved. Tying in their love of country music, which I also am crazy about, and lyrics from their first dance song, “The Way You Look Tonight”, made the job even more fun.

In the end, I think their adorable photos and style created a guest book that proved their favorite quote true: “Every once in a while, right in the middle of an ordinary life, love gives us a fairytale.”

I hope you enjoy browsing through their custom wedding guest book. And a BIG Congratulations to the cute newlyweds!

noreply@blogger.com (Amber) — Mon, 28 Jan 2013 20:30:00 +0000

Here's a wedding blooper that made for an unforgettable wedding. SCARY. Seriously, scary. But this couple seemed to take it all in stride.

Hope that you enjoy this wedding blooper video... and that you rethink any possible hot air balloon weddings in your near future. :)

Forever Friday: Cute Kid Proposal Video

noreply@blogger.com (Amber) — Fri, 25 Jan 2013 14:53:00 +0000

Today's proposal is a bit different than the norm--but I don't think you'll mind. I came across this video, and couldn't help but giggle. Wouldn't proposals be so much more... entertaining if kids were in charge of the terms?

Enjoy!

A Special Custom Designed Wedding Album

noreply@blogger.com (Amber) — Wed, 16 Jan 2013 17:25:00 +0000

When Ali contacted us before Christmas, we were so excited to design her wedding album! Her first date with her husband was at a Phillies game, he proposed at a Phillies game, so naturally, they got married and had their reception at the stadium, infusing their wedding with Phillies details. So cute and unique.

As if this, Ali's cute personality and her killer photos weren't enough to have us pumped, she also told us she was having the album made for her parents for Christmas. They live in New Jersey, and their house was flooded during Hurricane Sandy, destroying all their photos and keepsakes. This album would be the perfect gift to help begin building up their collection of memories again. Awesome.

We are so thrilled with the way the album turned out, and had so much fun working with this fun bride. Enjoy browsing through this special album!

Forever Friday: Cute Long Distance Wedding Proposal

noreply@blogger.com (Amber) — Fri, 12 Oct 2012 14:00:00 +0000

I like this marriage proposal... a lot, really. At first, I wondered why in the world he was planting the flowers, but the more I thought about his soon-to-be fiance watching the video, with her excitment building as he got closer and closer to where she was... the more I dug it. I really love the ending.

All you long distance relationship guys take note! You are in the perfect position to surprise the socks off your girl. My husband surprised me with a cross country trek to propose, and it was a day I'll never forget.

Enjoy!

Wedded Bliss Wednesday: Love Story Wedding Guest Book

noreply@blogger.com (Amber) — Wed, 03 Oct 2012 17:02:00 +0000

Recently, I got to know Jillian and Alex while designing their love story wedding guest book. Such a cute couple, with such a cute love story (spoiler: think growing up in the same town, but never crossing paths until they meet online...).

In addition to sharing their sweet love story, Jillian also had some adorable love notes and emails from their time dating that she wanted incorporated into her guest book for her wedding guests to enjoy. What a cute idea, and an awesome way to preserve the notes for years to come! I have a feeling lots more couples will follow suit after seeing the unique page we came up with to showcase Jillian and Alex's cute love doodlings.

I think you're going to enjoy it. I also think this couple is headed into years and years and years of wedded bliss. I think after browsing through their guest book and getting to know them a bit you'll agree. A big congratulations to the newlyweds, and a big thank you for making us all smile on Wedded Bliss Wednesday!

Mishaps Make the Memories: Wedding Memories

noreply@blogger.com (Amber) — Mon, 24 Sep 2012 21:23:00 +0000

While searching for some wedding mishaps to share today, I came across a blog entry. The woman is reminiscing about her wedding because it's her 17th anniversary. (Check it out HERE.)

Any guesses about what she talks about the most, and with the fondest memories 17 years later? The mishaps. I love it! (The 80s photos don't hurt the entertainment value, either... :))

Just a friendly reminder: as you plan your wedding, and stress about everything being perfect, and then inevitably find that everything didn't turn out "exactly right"... those mishaps are nothing to be upset about. Chances are, you'll look back and laugh years down the road!

Forever Friday: Cute Flashmob Wedding Proposal

noreply@blogger.com (Amber) — Fri, 21 Sep 2012 20:12:00 +0000

Ok...so I know that the flashmob thing has been done, and done...and done some more. But something about this one made me stop and watch. Really, really cute. I especially love watching the groom-to-be's nerves as he's waiting to join in, and the bride-to-be's reaction to it all. Plus, this groom-to-be actually has some serious moves. Kudos all around.

Enjoy!

Wedded Bliss Wednesday: Shabby Chic Wedding Guest Book

noreply@blogger.com (Amber) — Wed, 12 Sep 2012 14:24:00 +0000

WOW! It has been WAY too long. My hubbie and I were vacationing with the in-laws (which sounds a lot scarier than it was :) ). Since our return a couple of weeks ago, I've been designing wedding guest books like a mad woman! To say it's been busy season would be an understatement! Thank you to all my fall brides & grooms. It's been so much fun! Unfortunately, it has me slacking on this blog... but I have some fun albums for you to look through as a result, so will you forgive me?

Let's start with Jessica and Brian's adorable, shabby chic wedding guest book. We loved working with this cute couple, and know that their Aug. 3rd wedding was gorgeous (I've got glimpses on Facebook...trust me on this one). Anytime I get to use lace, burlap and vintage undertones on a guest book I'm in heaven. So you can imagine the love that went into this one!

Enjoy browsing, and congratulations to the newlyweds!

Wedded Bliss Wednesday: Vintage Peacock Wedding Guest Book

noreply@blogger.com (Amber) — Wed, 08 Aug 2012 17:26:00 +0000

One of our cute couples, Lori and Brian, tied the knot on July 28th, and I couldn't be happier for them!

Their wedding was vintage infused, with lots of lace, bird cages and peacock feathers, and I was lucky enough to get to design a custom wedding guest book to match.

Lori had great, vintage engagement photos, and wanted to share their song and proposal story in the book. Both Lori and Brian also took a page of the book to gush about the other. Such a fun, custom book. I really got a feel for this awesome couple, and I loved every minute of it!

Congratulations to the newlyweds! We're wishing you lots and lots of wedded bliss!

Forever Friday: Puppy Love Proposal

noreply@blogger.com (Amber) — Fri, 27 Jul 2012 14:57:00 +0000

I am a sucker for dogs. I'm crazy about them. Maybe that's why this wedding proposal video is so stinkin' cute to me. Puppies, puppies and more puppies. I even kinda love how "the" puppy doesn't want to cooperate--let's be honest...wearing that cute little tux, he could do no wrong.

Enjoy!

Wedded Bliss Wednesday: Go marriage!

noreply@blogger.com (Amber) — Wed, 18 Jul 2012 14:36:00 +0000

Recently I was sending a wedding card to a relative who was getting married. I found myself gushing about how excited I was for her because "marriage is the BEST." And isn't it? Getting to spend lots of time with the person you love most; always having someone who is excited to see you when you walk in the door; having everyday boring chores, like grocery shopping, morph into fun adventures because you get to do it with your best friend. It's no secret that I am a fan of good ole m-a-r-r-i-a-g-e.

Because of that, I'm never too surprised to read an article like the one below. Just confirms what we all already know: marriage rocks!

Wedded bliss is good for the heart

Mishaps Make the Memories: Wedding Bloopers Compilation

noreply@blogger.com (Amber) — Mon, 02 Jul 2012 19:29:00 +0000

I came across this wow-ser of a compilation today and had to share. It looks like someone has put together tons of America's Funniest Home Video wedding submissions. Some of them are hilarious, some of them are cliche, some of them are unbelievable... but I guarantee that all of them made quite the memory for the happy couple involved. :)

Enjoy, and happy Monday!

Forever Friday: Suprise Wedding Proposal at 3,000 feet

noreply@blogger.com (Amber) — Fri, 29 Jun 2012 19:14:00 +0000

This guy went all out to surprise his soon-to-be-wife with an unforgettable proposal. I love all the planning he put in... and I love her reaction. I always pictured crying when I was getting proposed to, but somehow I laughed...and laughed... and laughed some more. :)

Enjoy! And happy Friday!

Wedded Bliss Wednesday: 40 years of wedded bliss

noreply@blogger.com (Amber) — Wed, 20 Jun 2012 16:09:00 +0000

I came across this article the other day written by a woman getting ready to celebrate 40 years of wedded bliss. I thought her sense of humor about marriage was cute--snarky, without being too snarky. Maybe I enjoyed it because my favorite times with my hubbie, the ones I end up remembering and looking back on, are when we're laughing with each other (or at each other...sometimes that works too!). A sense of humor makes the bliss part of wedded bliss so much easier.

So I thought I'd share it with you for Wedded Bliss Wednesday today. Enjoy!

So, when one of my besties posted this on her facebook page, and I sat there turning into ooey-gooey mush as I watched Isaac propose to his adorable girlfriend, Amy, I knew I had to share.

Such a cute proposal. He involved family, friends and loved ones. He was creative and original. He was... just adorable. That's the only word. Good luck to all you guys out there who have yet to propose. You officially have a lot to live up to. :)

Enjoy!

And, P.S, Isaac and Amy, if you're out there, can I please do your wedding albums? Please? With creativity like this, I'm dying to get my hands on your photos.... :)

Mishaps Make the Memories: Anniversary Vacation Mishap

noreply@blogger.com (Amber) — Mon, 21 May 2012 18:11:00 +0000

Weddings aren't the only place where a mishap can occur. Sometimes they happen in marriage too. Gasp. I know... I know... hard to believe, but true.

Case in point: My hubbie and I recently celebrated our anniversary by taking a Mediterranean cruise. We flew in to Rome, and ended up at the exact baggage claim belt we waited at on our honeymoon four years ago. We remembered it well. Why? Because we made lots of memories there on our honeymoon when our bags never came off, and we spent the first three days of our trip without them. No fun... but we were in la-la-newlywed land, and it turned into something we laughed about. So, fast forward four years, and there we were again, waiting for our bags to arrive, laughing, and joking about the last time we waited for hours to no avail.

Before too long, the hubbie's bag arrived... but 3 hours later, we were leaving the airport without mine. Somehow, it decided to travel to Detroit. Why it wouldn't want to come to Europe with us is beyond me! Silly bag. So, there I was: no bag... getting on a seven day cruise...no cute cruise clothes...no make-up... no straw hat. And after the initial round of every emotion under the sun (including irritation, anger, devastation, and utter disbelief) do you know what flashed through my mind? This blog, and my little "Mishaps make the memories" motto. It was decision time. Did I let this ruin or hamper my long awaited, and much planned for trip? Or did I get over it, laugh and go on having an amazing time?

I promise, it was a decision, and a tough one at that. It would have been really easy to let this spoil my fun, and the fun of my cute hubbie (who is NOT a crier...at all... but admitted later that he was close to tears when he realized I wasn't getting my bag). But honestly, it was also pretty easy to say, "Oh well. Let's go have fun." Luckily, that's the route I took, and we had a stellar vacation filled with amazing memories despite the fact that my bag didn't arrive until 5 days later.

In addition to a great vacation, we got some added bonuses from losing the bag: hilarious memories of going into European pharmacies looking for mascara, shopping together for cute Italian shirts, an outrageous encounter with an Italian pajama shop keeper, and tons of memories of a certain baggage terminal in Rome where we've spent way too much time laughing, gasping and trying not to cry together. :)

The mishaps really do make the memories if you let them. Promise.

Forever Friday: Cute proposal in Disneyland

noreply@blogger.com (Amber) — Fri, 18 May 2012 17:31:00 +0000

When I saw this proposal video, I knew I had to share it.

I'm not sure what I would do if my husband-to-be turned Enchanted when he proposed! I think I'd be just as confused and shocked as this bride-to-be was.

Hope you enjoy this very cute, over-the-top Disneyland proposal!

Wedded Bliss Wednesday: Custom designed, vintage wedding album

Tara & Aaron celebrated their big day with a gorgeous, shabby chic, French vintage affair. Burlap and adorable vintage details abounded. An amazingly gorgeous event for an amazingly cute couple.

How do I know? Because they chose Something New to design their custom flush mount album, lucky me! So I was up to my nose in their beautiful photos. Looks like wedded bliss to me! What do you think?

A big congratulations to the happy couple!
