Smogshoppe Wedding by Annie McElwain

Does everyone know Annie McElwain?  'Cause if you don't, you should.  She has one of my absolute favorite photographer's websites; one with pictures that put a little tear in your eye and that has music that actually adds instead of distracts from the site.  You can see her amazing pictures on her site here, and you can check out a bit of her work below.  She sent over a totally gorgeous California wedding that took place at the Smogshoppe, yes as in a converted old smog shoppe.  Love interesting venues.  The bride and groom are the lovely Christi and Jaime, and they softened the industrial Smogshoppe with pink peonies and purple hyacinth.  Beautiful.

Quatre Coeur Fabric Flowers Event

Just got this in my inbox and thought I would share!  The lovely ladies of Quatre Coeur who do amazing floral design are also doing fabric flowers.  You could use these as accessories for you and your bridesmaids, or go all out and use them in your bouquets and at your reception.  They are having a trunk show plus how-to's this Saturday in Brooklyn so go check them out.  See the invite below.

 

Unique Product by Melangerie

Melangerie is always doing things a little differently and coming up with super creative, you-can't-find-this-anywhere-else products.  So I was not surprised when Elana sent over this darling new tote bag that just became available at their etsy store.  So cute and different, right?  I could totally see using this for out of town guest bags at a wedding where everyone is from somewhere else, or for bridesmaids gifts if all your gals are coming from all over.

Creative Genius: Circus Theme Wedding

For those of you who have picked up the current issue of Martha Stewart Weddings and saw the capital A-dorable circus theme wedding of the lovely Jenna, of love*Jenna calligraphy, and wanted more, 100 Layer Cake featured an expanded version with even more pictures and fantastic ideas on their blog today!  Definitely need to head over there to check out all of the fun pics, and here are a couple to whet your appetite.  By the way, Jenna's calligraphy for accent pieces/signs is VERY reasonable, and is a lovely detail at your event!
