Signature Drinks

As we all know open bars can be expensive. One fun answer is to offer, beer, wine, champagne and a signature drink that matches your theme and colors. A website we found makes it super simple as well as affordable - stirrings.com. They offer everything you need to make your day a success. The print labels, stirring sticks, have recipes and all the mixes. Also included are yummy sounding rimmers and cocktail garnishes!

Another great thing about stirrings.com is they offer mini 4 oz versions of the cocktail mixers which make great favors! The have cute tags featuring a recipe for your cocktail that you can download on their site.

They are a great way to show your personality and uniqueness, and brides and grooms everywhere are inventing drinks for their wedding.

BLING IT ON!

A cool trend some brides are using today that we love is BLING! It can be used as it is here by hanging crystals from either branches or wire trees. Many trees have florals added as well. You can purchase the branches, metal trees and crystals from a couple of different sites; two that we love are nettletonhollow.com and decoratemywedding.com. You should spend some time at these sites to find different colors and shapes of crystals and ways to use them.

Another type of bling that is really hot is the monogram! They make amazing cake toppers!

A great way to spice up your bridal bouquet is with jewels. We love these hearts, butterflies, monograms or just single crystals. They are pretty in the flowers or as part of the wrap.

So when planning your wedding don't forget to BLING IT ON!

Ten Mile Station-Breckenridge, CO

We first saw Ten Mile Station, Breckenridge in the summer/ fall 2009 Rocky Mountain Bride. I love the rustic feel it has, but it is still very elegant. Mountain resort weddings are becoming so popular, and for good reason. Beautiful views and charming and classy lodges. I also just love the photographers getting shots of the wedding party on the ski lifts! SO CUTE!
