Personalizing The Wedding Day

I think it's so thoughtful and makes a wonderful beginning to one of the most exciting days of your life...when you can personalize an item that your fiancee' will be wearing or carrying as they walk down the aisle.  It becomes much more than a keepsake, but a memory that will last a lifetime.  Take a glance at some of the ways you can go further in personalizing your wedding day.

The groom writes a personal message to his soon-to-be wife

The bride writes (or sews) a personal message
to his husband -to-be

The couple writes a personal message to one another
and it's displayed on each of their chairs

Have an attendant deliver the bride a handwritten note the day of the wedding...
attached to a present, of course!

Prior to the wedding, the couple writes words (or phrases) about the good in each person
and they are framed and displayed at the ceremony or reception

Until next time...WEDologize!

Shoes Have Personality, Too (Day#17)

I love those small touches that an excited bride makes to her attire to show off her personality!  From the gown, to the veil, to the accessories, to her hair and make-up, everything for her "perfect" day must be flawless. Now being the shoe woman that I am, there is one tiny detail that I'm seeing regularly from these fashionistas - shoe language.  I've coined the term simply because brides are adding sayings and phrases to the soles of their wedding shoes. From hand written words with a Sharpie marker to decals purchased from a store or online...I'm simply loving this personal statement!  Check out some of the shoe language below:

One of our May 2011 brides could not have said it better

How about the day you were "established" as husband and wife

How fun is it to add your new last name to your new shoes

Until next time...WEDologize!
