Browers of Hollywood

As we remembered our heroes and veterans yesterday , Memorial Day, I would like to also honor those in service today. They say nothing is more sexy than a man in uniform. So… what could be more attractive than a man in uniform that’s in Love??  Thank you to all of the men and women that serve our country and work day in and day out so that we can live in a free country.

Inspired by the season and their location (the backyard of Katie’s childhood home), Katie and Walker used a spring-y green, white and ivory color palette to plan an “informally elegant” wedding.

Colored Lace

May 25th, 2012 | Posted by Hello Love in Parties - (2 Comments)

Lace is such a romantic textile to have in your wedding and I’m in love with the idea of seeing it stand out proudly in color. Whether it’s in a bold or pastel tone, colored lace is a dramatic fabric that puts a spin on the classic white, neutral and black that’s typically seen. It’s just so much fun and I’m daydreaming about all the possibilities!

Interactive Invitations

May 24th, 2012 | Posted by Hello Love in Paper - (Comments Off)

Invitations don’t have to be limited to words on paper. They can be interactive! How cool is a madlib RSVP card? Or a board game save the date? Check out these inspiring pieces that combine stationery with entertainment.

Add some technology with a QR code (a barcode read by smart phones) that links to your wedding website.

This save the date actually ties a red string into a knot as the card opens. Here’s the translation:”KNOT: LOOP THAT IS FASTENED AND LOCKED SO IT IS DIFFICULT TO RELEASE, AND THE MORE ITS ENDS ARE PULLED APART THE MORE IT TIES TOGETHER.”

Everyone knows I have a passion for flowers….but I am also bananas for balloons! Give me a bouquet of balloons and watch my face light up! I believe that you don’t always need to go overboard with flowers, other types of decor can be just as stunning, dramatic, and eye catching. Get inspiration on ways to decorate with balloons for your big day. Think centerpieces, escort cards, and dessert table!
