Sarah’s Top Wedding Tips — PLANNING
LINK BACK TO OUR WEBSITE! www.wyomingweddingsonline.com Sarah Merrill of SuiteBlooms in Cheyenne is back with a new topic! Read on to discover Sarah’s tips for wedding planning… TIP: Double up on your Groom’s Boutonniere. That’s right; buy 2 for him. Here’s why – boutonnieres are already prone to dehydration because they will have been out of water 5+ hours before the wedding. Couple the flowers’ dehydration with the bruising and petal loss that will occur when everyone he knows gives him a hug, and you wind up with a broken, bruised and smashed boutonniere that will make your groom look just as bad as it does. Remember that immediately following that…

FUN WITH THEMES: French Provencal
LINK BACK TO OUR WEBSITE: www.wyomingweddingsonline.com Playing with a fun theme today… French Provencal! A combination of rustic elegance and French details, a little touch of countryside, fruits, wine, cheese…earthy wood tones and elegant lace can combine perfectly! This theme can become pricey quickly, however the feel of Provence can be achieved with inexpensive components too. Use reusable items such as wood cutting boards or pieces of wood in your decorations; scraps of lace to peak out from underneath food trays and cake displays… green glass bottles, white pottery and strands of prairie grass and olives… and other items that you use every day can be collected and incorporated into…

From a WY Bride: COLOR INSPIRATION — Silk Blue & Plum
LINK BACK TO OUR WEBSITE: www.wyomingweddingsonline.com WOW! A Wyoming bride shared that her & her fiance’s upcoming wedding will use silk blue & a dark purple for their colors. I must admit I was naive about the term ‘silk blue’ — she replied that silk blue is also called ‘ice blue’, but I have to say that the term ‘silk’ used with any color is sheer brilliance! Talk about adding the element of not only texture, but LUXURIOUS texture to a color description… And when it comes to your wedding, adding texture and a touch of luxury is never a bad thing… Bravo! And thanks for the color inspiration from…

We Love Elizabeth Taylor — The Quintessential Bride…
MGM Productions — 1950 If you haven’t seen the 1950 production of Father of the Bride starring Elizabeth Taylor, you must! It is a charming movie, to say the least. The 1991 version was always a favorite of mine growing up, and when I discovered the 1950 version a few years back, my husband and I had to stay up half the night to watch it. The movie was a hit, with Elizabeth’s dress reportedly designed by Helen Rose, influencing bridal gown trends in the early 50’s. http://pasttrends.fuzzylizzie.com/hollywood.html The world said good-bye to an icon of American cinema, and she will be missed…but her memory lives on in her many…

COLOR INSPIRATION: Raspberry!
LINK BACK TO OUR WEBSITE: www.wyomingweddingsonline.com I do enjoy an elegant black & white wedding, but OH BOY do I adore pops of bright COLOR! The trends for 2011 are leaving me feeling all warm and fuzzy, and today’s color inspiration is no different — RASPBERRY! The thing I have noticed about raspberry is that it is a color that is defined by interpretation. Some people envision close to a wine color when they think raspberry…others think of a darker shade of pink. If you wish to mix your shades of raspberry, it is potentially doable, but work wisely: sample all of your shades together, and think about how they…

Give Your Fans a…FAN!
LINK BACK TO OUR WEBSITE! www.wyomingweddingsonline.com Clever, no? OK, more like cheesy. Yes, agreed. 🙂 Obviously your guests are more than just GUESTS, they’re your biggest cheerleaders in life: your friends, family, former teachers and coaches and Girl Scout cookie-selling buddies and teammates and co-workers. People came for more than a free meal — they came to support you! So I thought that the idea of FANS for programs was not only AWESOME, it was very ironic! Talk about multi-tasking brilliance: inform your fans of the program, give them some entertainment, AND keep them cool all at once! I am a HUGE fan of multi-tasking — I prescribe by Alton…
