I think I’m getting into the spirit of Valentine’s Day this year. These little salt dough hearts are so precious. Imagine the possibilities - favors, as a save the date, as a pretty place setting decoration… love (no pun intended)!

I love winter. It’s such a magical season… when fresh snow blankets the ground there is a peace about the world. Minneapolis certainly sees its fair share of snow, which makes it a perfect setting for a classic winter wedding. Matt and Jill’s wedding, captured by the lovely Laura Ivanova, is one of those weddings. The portraits in the snow make my heart melt.



Jill chose to accompany her San Patrick gown with her grandmother’s vintage stole and elbow-length gloves.

We use beautiful high end vintage rhinestone pieces to recreate hair combs as well as necklaces,bracelets and earrings. Most of our work is one of a kind. Customizing for the bride and her party is a specialty.

I'm just a dreamer trying to find my place in this world. I have an orange cat named Milo and more books than I have shelf space for. I like folky music, baking, and Sunday mornings. My husband and I got married last fall at the beautiful, historic Wang Theatre in downtown Boston. For more on my adventures, please drop by my blog, The Spotted Duck.

When last we left off, Andreas and I had just finished our photo shoot on the Greenway and Beacon Hill and were headed back to the Wang for the ceremony.
First though, we took some pictures with our fabulously dapper wedding party. Here’s Andreas with his guys.


And me with my unbelievably gorgeous ladies.

I'm a newlywed living in North Carolina with my baseball playing husband and personality-filled puppy. I planned my November wedding in the NC mountains mostly by myself and started my own blog, i think i might be a grown up, to try to keep track of all the ideas spinning around in my head. Now that the wedding is behind me, I'm so excited to relive all the fun details here on EAD!

Right before Christmas our photographer, Angela Stott, sent me a preview of some of our wedding photos and when I first saw them I teared up… She has such an amazing gift to not only find beautiful locations to shoot, but also somehow make Brian and I look our best.

Mr. and I just bought our first home in Nazareth, PA so we will be
busy ripping out shag carpet and wallpaper from the 70's while at the
same time planning our July 2010 wedding. Although we aren't going to
have a specific "theme" for our wedding, my fiance and I love
traveling and are looking forward to incorporating some of our travels
into our wedding day. We want to put our own creative touches on as
much of our wedding as possible so we will be DIYing as much as we
can! Will there be a bouquet toss? No. Electric Slide? Absolutely not.
Everything for us, our friends, and families to have the most fun
ever? Absolutely.

I’m about to send out my Save the Dates and am totally not looking forward to using the polar bear postcard stamps. So, I hunted down the 2010 USPS stamps and I think I may be giving up my dream of using vintage stamps for our wedding. It was just turning out to be such a headache to find the right ones and now that I’ve seen what’s in store I’m about to give in to just going the easy route for our invitations.
My top 2 wedding favorites:

2010 Love Stamp - Pansies in a Basket, 2010 Butterfly Stamp - for oversized mailings
There are other stamps coming out too. Here are some more of my favorites that could totally be used with the right wedding:

Country wedding anyone? The Winslow Homer stamp is for you. Or how about an old Hollywood wedding with Katharine Hepburn?
