I saw these GREAT chair covers over at INSIDE Weddings and thought they were the best wedding sugar I’ve seen in a while.  These decor hotties are from Wildflower Linen— the handbeaded designs accentuated with satins and silks are a great way to add to the experience of your event.  These linens are actually designed for the Chameleon Chair.

Everyone typically does linens and opts for chair covers and a simple sash, or they decide “to Chiavari”.  It can get boring after a while.  So what do you do to add a little life to your bottom? Shoot for texture or go sheer.  Add other elements such as flowers, garlands, chair pads, etc. to bring out some UMMMPH!

          

Even if you just opt to do a different chair, this too could add a lot of substance and flavor to your event. So be sure to check out Chameleon Chair!

Many of you know how much I heart Khris Cochran of DIY Bride.  She is a phenomenal talent and I will go even as far to say she’s a creative genius.  Khris gave a sneak peek of the cover of her new book this week, and it is just too cute!

As you may (or may not) have heard, your local stores are now carrying bridal fashions.  That’s right–say goodbye to David’s Bridal and boutiques. Journey right on down to your nearest Target or Ann Taylor  (featured left) for your wedding garb.  We recently discussed the new trend of retailers carrying bridal gowns when H&M released their wedding gowns to the public. 

Depending on your budget (or the budgets of your bridal party), this could be a plausible option for you.  Keep your eyes peeled… word on the street is that Vera Wang may be next with her own retail line of dresses!

Back on the edible favor tip…if you are looking for a sweet way to thank guests for coming out, check out Good Fortunes.  They have an array of  fortune cookie and other edible favors that are just adorable!  Your fortune cookies even come with your very own message!  How sweet is that :)
