Everything old is new again. Doesn’t matter what era you prefer, vintage is in in a big way right now and I personally adore it! You have to have the right style and sometimes body type to pull off these daring looks, but if you can manage it, I say go for it. Mix it with some modern or go all the way vintage, either way looks amazing.

Halloween Weddings
For the past two years I’ve had a wedding Halloween weekend, however neither of the couples wanted their wedding to reflect the holiday in any way. No orange, no pumpkins, not even fall colors. But there are those who embrace the theme and go with it. If that is what you are doing, I think you can still make it chic and ghoulish at the same time.
Mason Jars
Mason jars are all the rage right now and rightfully so! They can be used for any and everything. Use them as your glassware, hang them from shepard hooks, use them as centerpieces, candle holders, any kind of decor really. They add a really homey touch to any gathering.
Etsy Find of the Week
Ok, so it isn’t every week or even every other, but I had a feeling that would happen. Regardless, I love love love this Etsy find. Whenever I see these used in weddings I always think, what are the chances of finding a perfect beautiful window and then you still have to pay the calligrapher to write on it. I love this because not only does it look amazing, but you would pay the same for escort cards printed on paper and this is so much more original and then you can reuse the window as decor in your house (once you remove the seating of course). So it is also green!

Around the World
I am increasingly inspired by map decor these days. The colors are beautiful, there are so many ways to use a map or a globe and who doesn’t want to conjure up images of traveling the world? You can’t go wrong.

Cupcake Liner DIY Projects
Not only are cupcakes still all the rage, now cupcake liners are on trend as well. I personally just finished an adorable (if I do say so myself) cupcake liner garland for a wedding this weekend. But there is so much more being done with cute liners these days. Get out our glue gun, these are so fun!
