    Purple & Silver Wedding Theme by The Bride's Diary®This gorgeous purple and silver wedding theme centres around stunning Vera Wang gowns. The key to making a purple and silver theme work is moderation - don't go overboard! pick one or two statement pieces and accessorise subtly - a simple pearl necklace and silver pumps will set the look off perfectly.To complement this look  add a bouquet of simple flowers - we love tulips alternating between soft and vivid tones of purple.We love the Alannah Rose Love Birds Stationery shown here. Tie this in with Sticky personalised candy as a bomboni...

  • When I hear that a Bride or Groom works for a fancy ad agency in San Francisco I always start to worry.  I mean, these people know their sh*% right?  Thank goodness I didn’t find out where Sha worked until after they hired me.  Gulp.  Needless to say Sha and Victor are fabulous… fun, quirky, silly and cute as can be.  I like quirky.  I can work with that.

    I love this Christmas gift idea from Little White Book: handmade silverware magnets! Just buy real antique silverware pieces at local vintage stores, attach a little magnet to the top, and tie with a pretty tag! Handmade, affordable, and so personal! I would put my own spin on it by tying a poem to the magnet....

    Today we class things up with glamourous purple and silver! This color combination just oozes elegance and sophistication! I was really inspired by these lovely chocolate treats from Martha Stewart Weddings. I love the sweet charm of the purple icing posies! While this combo stays classy, it also has a youthful and modern vibe. Keep it fun with some accessories like this feather Anthropologie necklace and these killer Kate Spades! Then glam it up with an embellished gown like this stunner from Platinum by Pricilla of Boston. But don't forget the groom. He can spice things up with a patterned t...

    Let’s face it: not every woman looks her best in white… or cream… or ecru. And some women just don’t want to wear any shade of white while getting married. But if you aren’t getting married in white, that opens up every possible color in the rainbow to you. What to pick then? Well, right now a lot of brides are looking to shades of silver, steel, platinum, and just plain grey. Grey? For a wedding gown??? Yep. I say don’t knock it until you take a look at it. Take, for instance, this strapless Aria gown in platinum floral print on a cream colored background ...

    We all know that gold continues to be hot! hot! hot! this year.  But no matter how many gold trends come and go, I shall always be a silver girl (or white gold.  Or platinum.  You get my drift.) This cake caught my eye right away.  Featured at a wedding in Santa Ana, California, what a rich look it has!  I love the geometrical pattern of the coins all over the cake; it’s executed flawlessly…and do NOT think that that happened without a whole lotta work.  The edible coins rest on a palette of buttercream, and the whole thing is quite detailed, yet minimalist at the same time. ...
