One of our employees was married in October of this year, and she needed to find a last minute "something blue" for her wedding day...she decided to make her bouquet ribbon really special by monogramming it with blue crystals. This made such a beautiful addition and brought a little personality to her ensemble.
Then, to tie all of the bridesmaids in, she made single monogram initials for each of them on their black bouquet ribbons.
We now offer
Monogrammed Ribbon for you to personalize your wedding day ensemble!

What is the "Bridesmaid
Ribbon Pulling Tradition"? Jamie, Boston
The
Bridesmaid
Ribbon Pulling Tradition is a tradition dating back to the Victorian
Era where each charm is baked right into the wedding cake with the
ribbon peeking out of the side of the cake. Just before the Bride and
Groom's cake cutting ceremony, each bridesmaid pulls on one ribbon and
the charm she finds is a wish from the bride...
Engagement Ring - The Next
to Marry
Heart - Love will Come
Bouquet - A Blossoming
Relationship
Horseshoe - Lucky in Life
Anchor - Hope and
Adventure
Key - The Key to Happiness
Awaits
A cute way to incorporate
this tradition outside of the wedding reception has been to make it
a special event at the bridesmaid luncheon or bridal shower.

THE
GUEST BOOK
Photo
Guest
Books are becoming a very popular trend among brides and
grooms. These books are more about the guests, and less
about record-keeping. The non-traditional guest books let your
friends and family share their
thoughts and wishes along with a Polaroid pic of themselves,
or their favorite part of your wedding! We know
how busy you are during the reception and you may not have
time to sit and talk to everyone; This is a great way to have
a visual of all of your guests.
It's
also a great way for your guests to entertain themselves before the
party gets started...have a couple books circling throughout
the reception for each guest to write advice and loving
thoughts about your new life together.

| GARTERS 101:
It is believed that the tradition of tossing the garter
dates back to 14th century France. The Medieval guests
considered the bride's attire to be lucky, and guests would
literally rip off pieces of her gown. To defend herself, she
began to throw them her garter! In modern times, her groom
does it for her to defend her from the single reception
guests.
We've noticed a
growing trend with
garters...they're not just for the Bride anymore!
Brides are buying them as gifts for the bridesmaids in
bright, vibrant colors. It's a cute way to share
something special with your maids, and insure them a little
luck on the BIG day! And, we offer custom made garters
so you can choose to make unique garters for your unique
friends.
