It’s Wedding Wednesday at The Bon Bon and it’s all about “The Details”!  Details truly make your wedding memorable…I love watching guests at Soirée weddings and events point out all the lovely detail elements and sometimes, I get to hear all the sweet comments that they share.  Opening my emails on Monday morning after a weekend wedding and receiving a heartfelt comment from the bride or her mother on how they loved all the “little details” makes my day everytime!  So, while you are in the planning stages of your wedding, don’t forget to think about how to incorporate the details that reflect you and the groom as a couple.  Here are a few of my favorite details from Soirée!

Table Numbers - Instead of the “table number” displayed on the table, hand calligraphed table number signs tied with ribbon are the perfect details for the table and we even dressed one up with Kermit mums, so darn cute!  

Ribbons -  Oh, how we love ribbons at Soirée!  Here, we strung ribbons, orchids, and lanterns over an old oak tree limb to create the altar for our bride’s ceremony. During the ceremony, the breeze picked up and the ribbons swayed romantically as the backdrop.

And we carried out the ribbon theme on the chairs at the reception.

And of course, ribbons are just lovely for pew markers.  We hot glued a beautiful dahlia to these, so pretty and simple!

Boutonnieres – Every little detail matters on your wedding day.  We love to deliver even the smallest things in vogue.  Hand-tied boutonnieres with tags were distributed to the groomsmen on mood moss.

Signature Drinks - A great detail to add to your wedding.  So many brides want to pass out drinks to their guests before the ceremony and to make this a special element, we designed and packaged a glass bottle.  Each was filled with our delicious Soirée signature drink, low-country lemonade.

Drink Stirrers – Carry the signature element throughout the wedding.  Here, we found charming wooden drink stirrers and had the bride’s signature bird motif printed on each!

Place Cards -Dress up your place cards with elements from the “theme” of your wedding.  Here we used peacock feathers, as it was a key detail throughout the wedding.

Get-Away Signage – A perfect way to end the the wedding day and send the couple off in style!

I hope you’ve been inspired and remember – It’s All in the Details!

Happy Monday and I’m so excited to share some wonderful news with you today. I was asked by the wonderful folks at Flower magazine to design a fresh summer floral arrangement for their special anniversary issue.  I’m a huge fan of Flower magazine and I was just tickled to pieces to be a part of this special issue.  Thanks to all the wonderful editors and staff.  Make sure you purchase a copy, lots of beautiful floral ”eye candy” to see!  Have a wonderful day everyone!

Happy Friday and are you all ready for the weekend.  I know I am!  We don’t have a wedding at Soirée this weekend so I’m just going to kick back and relax.  Actually, I started a little early last evening and one of my favorite things to do is check out some of my favorite “shopping” sites. VERMILLION is one that is at the top of my list.  A few weeks ago, I featured Vermillion (see that post here) and there’s one item that I found on their site last night and I’m obessing over it….the White Lacquered Bar Cart.  A very cute “decor” addition to the home!  Well, I hope you enjoy your weekend.  I have so many more home magazines and decorating sites to catch up on.  See you back at the Bon Bon on Monday!
