I just got back from a performance by the Joffrey Ballet of the Nutcracker at the Detroit Opera House. One off the most dazzling scenes was of the Snow Queen dancing in her glittering icy costume through a dreamy wonderland of snow.
When I saw this handmade wedding tiara, made by the UK’s BlueMarmalade on Etsy.com, I though instantly of the Snow Queen.
Now you can subject your friends and family to your wedding video and call it Movie Night – complete with popcorn, cocktails and cushy theatre seats. The catch? You have to fly to Rome.
An indie theatre in Rome is renting out space to couples who want to show off their wedding movies to friends and relatives. It’s so hot with couples that the ailing cinema has now been revitalized. The cost is $422 U.S. – with cocktails thrown in.
Why not pitch this idea to your local indie cinema? Who knows, you might bring the trend to North America?
There are lots of ways to tell your guests where to go. You can create Google Maps for your guests. You can draw your own maps. Or you can get fun, hand drawn wedding maps for wedding guests from calligrapher Laura Hooper. Send them in your invitations or as save the date cards. Laura’s work has been featured in oodles of bridal magazines and she’s done work for some Hollywood notables. Map design is $285. With all the money you’ll save by having a small guest list, why not splurge on this cool keepsake!
It seems like everyone wants to be a rockstar these days. Hell, you can even drink Rockstar from a can. Fame, fortune, swooning fans… one can see the appeal. Now you can bring out your inner rockstar while planning your big day? How? Forgo the traditional invitations and have custom made rock concert posters announcing your wedding to all of your fans. They are works of art, and highly frameable. Check out Posterbride.com for custom designs.
I am so tempted to buy one of these felt flower bouquets and put it in my living room. Love them! What a fun and whimsical alternative to traditional wedding flowers. Princess Lasertron (aka 22 year old Megan Hunt) will customize the flowers for your wedding. And she will create boutonniers and corsages to match the bouquet.
What a gorgeous wedding keepsake!
