Leaf Ring Pillows

Wednesday, February 25th, 2009

I came across these ring pillows on Etsy.  I love the shape with the leaves and the sage color (which isn’t showing up so well here).  There are other colors available too, and they’re only $40.

Cake of the Month

Thursday, February 19th, 2009

Sometimes I come across cakes that really make me stop and stare.  So, I thought I would start featuring these cakes once a month.  For this month, I came across an artistic trio of cakes designed by Jim Smeal out of Charleston, SC.   Check out his website for further inspiration.

 

Flowers that WOW

Plum Sage Flowers in Denver created this parasol out of oncidium orchids.  Wouldn’t  your guests be wow’d if you walked down the aisle with one of these?  Truly spectacular!

Sugar Hearts

Monday, February 16th, 2009

I love these heart-shaped sugar cubes from Sur La Table.  They would be so cute hanging from the sides of  coffee cups at a wedding.  Plus, they’re currently on sale.  Get yours before they’re gone!

Just wanted to wish you all a Happy Valentine’s Day!  And….. for those of you who got engaged today, don’t forget to give us a call! 

Mini Champagne

Wednesday, February 11th, 2009

Sofia Coppola, daughter of film director and wine mogul, Francis Ford Coppola has followed in her father’s foot steps to create a champagne (sparkling wine) of her own.  Packaged in a pink straw inclusive can, the “Sofia Mini” bubbly looks like an energy drink, but tastes like champagne. Perfect to serve at a bridal shower.

Venue Spotlight ~ Fine Arts Center

Wednesday, February 4th, 2009

I just returned from the FAC wedding vendor open house and wanted to mention how fabulous this venue is for a wedding or event.  From the spectacular glass corridor and outdoor courtyard to the jazz-inspired Deco Lounge, the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center creates the ideal setting for an upscale, modern  and exceptional gathering.  Access to the galleries can be included with your event.  I also want to mention that the magnificent centerpieces shown in the photo were created by Rich Designs.

DIY ~ Cake Decorations

Wednesday, February 4th, 2009

A great way to save money is to order a plain cake or cupcakes from your local baker and decorate them yourself with Diane’s Cakes and More hand-made sugar decorations.  Decorations include snowflakes, cherry blossoms, fall leaves, sunflowers, daisies, dogwood flowers and more.  Transform a simple cake into a work of art.
