For the Love of Ikat

Patterns are popping up everywhere, and there is one pattern I am so in love with: IKAT! If you are like me and have a soft spot for bohemian, effortless, colorful decor, ikat is right up your alley! It pairs great with any color scheme, so it is so easy to incorporate ikat details to all aspects of your wedding. I love pairing ikat with strong, bold colors to help compliment the pattern. Ikat is so versatile and adds an extra oomph to reception tables, signage, dresses, shoes, and stationary that will have your guests oohing and ahhing. I cannot get enough of this pattern- just look how chic!

Trend Alert! Add a Lounge for a Relaxing Reception

The fun trend of reception lounges popped up in 2012 and is now making big appearances in 2013! I have to admit, I am in love love love with this trend. Adding a little reception lounge a few steps from the dance floor gives guests the ability to kick up their feet, relax, and mingle. It doesn’t matter if your reception is indoors or outdoors, modern or eclectic, day or night- a reception lounge gives your reception a little something extra that I promise your guests will be oohing and ahing over! Make the lounge swanky and cool by adding candles, curtains, and little personal touches. Hey, you could even turn the lounge into a cigar bar, wine tasting, or a little bites stop! Put a posh touch on your reception by adding the ever so chic reception lounge!

Invitations, place cards and napkins all look amazing with an extra bow detail, and they add a great modern touch to your wedding.
