Unveiled

April 13th, 2012 | Posted by Hello Love in Parties - (Comments Off)

We’ve come a long way from the traditional cathedral wedding veil. A bride’s veil is just as much a statement piece as the dress itself. Melody Ginn, owner and designer at Emma’s Bridal Boutique, knows that better than anyone. For almost ten years, Melody has been designing couture headpieces for brides worldwide. Inside her Red Oak, Texas showroom you’ll find everything from traditional wedding veils to vintage inspired hat veils and custom fascinators. Here are some great accessory ideas that break away from tradition.

There are many ways to tell your guests where they are seated. It can be anything from a single chart to individual escort cards. It’s just another detail you can tailor specifically to your style and event! Here are some of my favorite displays.

I love a good chalkboard seating chart (source)

Who doesn’t love the sentiment and beauty of an old brooch. Vintage only of course but add one of those beauties to anything — napkin, guest book, shoe, dress, bouquet and it’s pretty much immediately gorgeous. Hard to resist this emerald green lovely.

Hi!  This is Wendy with Birds of a Feather and I have a fun little tutorial for you today!  What a cute idea for a wedding send off!  They are easy to make and oh so super cute!  These eggs are said to bring good luck to the person who’s head they are smashed over – how fun is that?!

Let’s start with the supplies you will need.  If you find yourself crafting quite a bit like me, you more than likely have some of the items lying around already.

Carton of eggs (get the white ones, the dye shows up better)//Cups to put the dye in ( I bought these PAAS cups at Target to make things easier)//Egg tongs (these work SO much better than the cheap little wire one that comes with the dying kit – it is also useful for holding the eggs under the dye)//White vinegar//Sharp, pointy knife//Thin wooden dowel//Large bowl ( or you can empty eggs over kitchen sink)//Easter egg dye kit//Tooth picks//Rubber gloves//Rubber bands (optional)//Paper confetti//Glitter and a shallow container to pour it into (I used the lid of a mason jar)//White tissue paper//scissors//Modge Podge//Sponge applicator
