Tidbits from the Interwebs

Bridesmaid — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 04:20:17 +0000

Sorry (in my Canadian accent) for the lack of creative posts lately. It’s just been so hectic at work! In the meantime, here are a few links which you must check out!

1) Barbara Kua Calligraphy recently launched an online shop so now it’s even easier to purchase their customized calligraphy stamps and sample calligraphy packs.

2) Toronto-based Sash & Bustle has also launched its E-Boutique. Items available to purchase through the E-Boutique include: veils, fascinators, bridesmaids gifts, bridal clutches and other wedding-related details.

3) My friend Michelle sent me this link to this amazing Mario Brothers’ 8-bit video game wedding invitations. Check out the video below, and click on the above link to see photos of the paper invites!

4) After many weeks of suspenseful teasers, The Last Forty Percent Photography unveiled their brand new studio space overlooking the city. I love how modern it looks! I foresee LFP being bombarded with even more requests for boudoir sessions! To see more of their new space, click here.

5) Toronto Life magazine has posted select content from its Wedding Guide 2010 (on its website including a feature on Andrea Anastasiou, owner of White Toronto. Also check out Toronto Life’s stunning wedding gown picks.

Don’t forget to enter A Hot Pink Petticoat Giveaway – which has been extended to the end of Monday and is open to anyone planning an event (doesn’t have to be a wedding). Note that the contest is now open to those outside of Toronto.

Do You Drink Your Milk Out of A Bag?

Bridesmaid — Fri, 05 Feb 2010 05:00:03 +0000

I do. Well, I used to when I lived with my family. You see, in some parts of Canada, including my province of Ontario, milk comes in bags, not jugs. We have cartons of milk but if you want to go ‘family size’, you’ll have to resort to buying ‘bags’ of milk. Check out this article in the Toronto Star and the below video if you don’t believe me. As noted in the Toronto Star article, bags take up less space, are easier to transport, use less plastic than jugs, and on average, milk in a bag actually costs less than the comparable amount of milk in a carton. Milk in a Bag – weird? Perhaps. Environmentally friendly and economically economically conscious? Totally, eh?! Happy Friday.

So we drink milk out of bags. Does that make us weird? – thestar.com

A Friday the 13th "I Do" – Part Deux

Bridesmaid — Sun, 31 Jan 2010 22:35:15 +0000

Part I- Jessica and Nick’s Wedding

Hope you are enjoying your Sunday! Let’s continue with Jessica and Nick’s Friday the 13th wedding.

Both the ceremony and reception took place at Bellamere Winery in London, ON. The rustic feel of the winery was the perfect venue for this unconventional couple.

Instead of wearing a veil, Jessica decided to wear a long, black cape made by Nick’s godmother. She proceeded down the aisle with her father to “Nothing Else Matters” by Metallica covered by Apocalyptica.

The ceremony, which Jessica and Nick wrote themselves, took place in one of the winery’s buildings.

Once they were married, the bride and groom walked down the aisle together to “Right Here In My Arms” by HIM.via The Last Forty Percent

Jessica DIYed a lot of the decor including the dogwood table centrepieces. She also designed and made all the paper goods, including the invitations and place cards. In lieu of guest favours, Jessica and Nick made a donation in memory of Nick’s father to the Canadian Cancer Society. Guests were encouraged to take a Together.Strong wristband to honour those touched by cancer.

Jessica was kind enough to share some ‘behind the scenes’ details……..

How amazing is this card box? Unable to find something that suited her taste, Jessica decided to DIY a card box herself.

Nick designed Jessica’s engagement ring and wedding band. Check out the black diamonds in her band.

Jessica also made her bridesmaids’ jewelery -beaded drop earrings with matching necklaces.

A month to the day before Nick proposed, both Jessica and Nick each got infinity symbol tattoos on to symbolize their commitment to each other. They used this same symbol on their invites.

Congratulations Jessica and Nick. Thank you for sharing your wedding with us and showing us that ’strange’ may be different but if you stay true to yourself, you’re guarantee an awesome time.

*A special thanks to The Last Forty Percent.
