If your wedding is on the horizon, chances are you’ve received a lot of gifts in the mail already. Your registry items are getting checked off one by one and you have a lot of generous people to thank

It’s like a scene from Father of the Bride (if you haven’t seen it – it’s a must). A beautifully intimate wedding at home, just a simple celebration in your backyard

If you’re considering a destination wedding but still on the fence about it, consider these 5 reasons to host a destination wedding (and a tip or two to go with them)! You’ll also find you have less obligation to invite co-workers or people you aren’t as close to since the expense and ask you put on a destination wedding guest is much higher. If you’ve selected a destination wedding because of your love of travel or the place, you know how enriching it is to experience other cultures and countries. Keep in mind the costs of hosting multiple events however and consider spending that budget on experiences instead of more people if you’re going the more intimate route.

Whatever the wedding’s theme or color scheme, it’s the personalized details that your guests will never forget. As you know, I’m a longtime fan of Shutterfly’s Wedding Shop, but not only for their darling wedding invitations and stationery. How you serve it is just as important, so use these gorgeous glass jars to hold everything from toppings for an ice-cream sundae bar to garnishes for a gin and tonic station and customize them with your wedding logo or monogram. From adding your motif to the dance floor to writing a favorite quote or lyric on a wall, or even adding a fun statement to the bathroom mirrors, decals are a fun and flexible way to make any space your own.
