So, My closet is loving anything alligator and crocodile right now–I should have known it was only a short time before it moved into my mailbox! I just found these invitations at Allie Munroe.
They are actually pressed alligator and snake skin! I absolutely love them!!

If fabulous were a person, it would be Liene. That being said, if you had Liene for your wedding, that would, by default of course, make your wedding fabulous. But, since you read this blog, you must already be fabulous, so that in combination with Liene working your wedding would make it uberfabulous.
See how it all works out, luxelings?
Ok. Enough puffery.
Miss Fabulous is giving away a FREE, day of coordination package to a lucky couple. Travel fees included! Anyone in the U.S. Heck, I might even sign up just so we can get together :)
But if you are in the need of a coordinator for the day of your wedding, and when the only the best will do…you’d better get Liene.
A while back, I blogged about the gorgeous chair covers at Chameleon Chair. Most recently, I was reading BizBash about Lounge 22’s uber sexy glow chairs.
From BizBash:
For an unexpected glowing effect, Lounge 22’s new, patented GloChair features an illuminated plexiglass backrest that radiates light for more than 12 hours. Seat cushions, which come in black Ultrasuede or white vinyl, conceal a battery pack that powers the lights. For large orders (1,000 or more), each chair rents for $20; quantities of 500 to 1,000 rent for $26 each.

I am not saying they are true… I am just saying a marraige is hard work. Why not take all the luck you can get?
Wearing pearls: this myth has both bad luck and good luck meanings. The not so lucky version of this myth: pearls represent future tears; therefor wearing them will bring many tears and heartache in the marriage. The much luckier version of this myth: the pearls take the place of the bride’s real tears. Result: she’ll have a happy, tear-free wedding.
Dropping the wedding ring: this is another good luck bad luck wedding myth. Good luck: dropping the wedding ring during the ceremony was seen as lucky because it would shake out evil spirits hiding in the ring. Bad luck: dropping the ring was considered the most ominous of events; whoever dropped the ring was said to be the first to die. (a little harsh don’t you think?)
Time of day to get married: the couple should exchange vows as the clock’s minute hand is moving upwards, any time half past the hour, for example 3:30 or 5:45. The upward movement is said to bring blessings upon the couple as the minute hand is “ascending towards heaven.”
Surname of the same first letter: it is considered unlucky for the bride to marry a man with a surname that begins with the same first letter as hers. This wedding myth is summarized in the following Victorian rhyme: “To change the name and not the letter; is to change for the worst and not the better.”
Wedding Viel: The wedding viel hides the brides beauty, and blocks evil spirits. Another explanations is that during the day of arranged marraiges, the brides face would be covered until the groom commited to the marraige.
Where to stand: The bride stands on the left of the groom during the marriage ceremony to allow his sword arm to be free, ready to fight off other men who may want her as their bride.
Wedding Rings: The wedding ring is considered sacred and should not be lent to others to try on, it will bring bad luck and even the possibility of unfaithfulness. If ever the wedding rings are removed by a bride, it must be the groom who returns them to her fingers to continue the good luck. (I like this one)
A few years ago I got this awsome Miss A Kit as a gift for Christmas and I love it. Just recently I lost mine (tear) and am now getting ready to order a new one.
It is the total girl version of the Swiss Army knife. It can fit into your purse, clutch or even your pocket. Almost everytime I used mine I got a comment from someone saying how cute it was, or asking me where I got it. I have given these as small gifts, and stocking stuffers and they are always a hit. So if you need a last minute gift for your girlfriends, mom or yourself, the Miss A Kit is perfect. They come in 12 different colors and the features included are:

They even came out with one for the guys, MetroLine Kit For Men.
Remember that show?
If you haven’t already, you really must check out Liene’s daily segment, “30 Days to Plan a Wedding“. The woman is a genius. And I’m not saying that because I’m a Liene-lover and stalker; she really is.
She takes you from wedding conception to wedding execution (the GOOD kind)– all in thirty days. Liene also covers a lot of topics that are over looked by brides in their planning process and also explains the “why’s and how’s” of planning.
Please read it– it is an awesome read and a Digg favorite!
A great way to add character to your cocktail hour is to introduce a signature drink. Take it a step further by dressing up your siggy too with gorgeous glasses? While you’re playing dress up, don’t forget the trays that the drinks will be served from– accent the servers’ trays with any and everything– flowers, a little sparkle, etc. If your drinks will be put on a table, think about something that will tie in with your other decor and tablescapes.
