i'll take your vodka and raise you a rumLike this design? Create an Evite invitation with this image. You don't have to drink the alcohol in order for it to liven up a party. I once attended a Yankee Swap-esque bottle exchange where everyone brought a bottle of liquor at the $30 mark. The evening was super festive without even opening the bottles. Same rules apply as a Yankee Swap, but instead of a wrapped something-or-other, you bring a wrapped bottle of liquor. Best bets for the prized possessions? Cool bottles and unusual alcohol. Here are the top five picks at the exchange I went to: St. Germain Elderflower Liqueur ...

Raspberry!?!So lately I have been attempting to squeeze raspberry into the color scheme for the wedding. Most of the time, the response I get when I tell people is: "Raspberry!? Why would you want to throw THAT color into the palette!?"Since hearing that response about ten too many times, (granted, I have only told ten people) I have stopped attempting to explain to people that raspberry isn't evil.Style Me Pretty started my obsession with a plum/raspberry paring with this inspiration board:Now granted, a little yellow/gold is incorporated into this board...but I could take or leave that portion of it. So...
