Soaps from Provence - escort card holders + favors!Last weekend, I came across a cute German shop with my friends that specializes in soaps and lotions from the Provence region in France. Each bar of soap was beautifully stamped. I couldn't help falling in love with their beauty and divine scents. As I was talking with the store owner, he told me that a few years ago, he used countless Lily of the Valley bars in his sister's wedding - they placed a bar of soap at each seat in the reception hall and used it as an escort card holder by slicing the soap at the top and inserting the escort card. The soap ended up serving a dual...

Letter holder/Card holderImage CreditAt first glance, I marveled at this beauty and thought how lovely it would be near the front door to collect the mail ... Then wedding mode kicked in and I thought how it could make a stunning double as a card holder at the reception, no? I love turning everyday (yet beautiful) household items into special wedding touches. Is there something from your home you're planning on using for a special purpose on the big day?...

Creative Card HoldersAt your reception, there is a very good chance you will need a vessel to hold the dozens and dozens of cards you will get from your guests. I’ve noticed this year that many wedding guests are opting for the last minute card with cash/check inside vs. getting a physical “gift”. Having just gotten married a year and a half ago, I know that we actually welcomed the somewhat “uncreative” gift of money over gifts – hands down! But we did not collect the cards in a totally cliche treasure chest or cheap-looking white bird cage, we classed it up with a creatively chic card vessel instea...

the quest for the card holderhereI didn't even know what a freakin' "card holder" was until I started blogging. I've never seen one at a wedding. I'm sure they've been there...but I've never noticed. It's clearly not a "detail" I cared much about.Until yesterday morning. 8 days until the wedding. This is how I know I'm lame.Instead of packing my house, or feeding the homeless, my sisters and I set out to find a freaking birdcage. via Love, Love Me DoMy search started online. The only pretty old birdcage for sale on Craigslist was $125...honestly. Antique stores would be too h...
