Eye Candy Friday : v9

This week's Eye Candy Friday edition has turned into "something blue." It's a bit of a long one, but I just had so many great images to share with you. And, I didn't want to leave any out. {past eye candy friday editions can be seen here: v1, v2, v3, v4, v5, v6, v7, and v8}
Shown above is a gorgeous custom Signature Save the Date from Linda & Harriett. It's a variation of their popular Signature invitation. This save the date is letterpressed with soy-based ink on both sides onto 2-ply 100% cotton paper.

"Something old, something new, something borrowed, and something Jean Paul Gaultier?" Every year, Evian partners with a different French designer to create a haute couture and ready-to-wear designer bottle. This year's Limited Edition Evian Bottle was designed by Jean Paul Gaultier. From the press release received on this stunning bottle:

Known for his cutting-edge designs with an avant-guarde soul, the Gaultier bottle is perfect to add a classic yet chic flair to wedding décor, with the bottles making the perfect souvenir for guests to take away and display in their homes as a commemorative designer vase.

The Evian Prêt-à-Porter, or ready-to-wear, Bottle is adorned with a pattern of interlocking snowflakes, magnified by a unique mariner blue so much known to Gaultier. The majestic blue of the oversized logo and the understated print of the designer’s name offer a subtle reminder of his signature style. The unique lines within the design give the bottle an unexpected touch that will add to the visual appeal of every table at the reception.

The Limited Edition Evian Bottle by Gaultier has already found its way into the nation’s most high-end restaurants and hotels, and now this perfect accent to wedding décor is available to discerning brides everywhere directly through www.ShopEvian.com.



Above is a little taste of some of the custom cookie favors we've created recently that happen to be blue. Please note: I haven't had a chance to get the flip flop cookies onto the wedding boutique yet, but if you email me, I can get the order set up for you - brenda{at}bestweddingsites{dot}com. All cookie favors can be customized to the colors of your choice with/without personalization. I heart the flip flops, especially now because I cannot wait for warm weather. I envy all of you that live in the warmer states.

And now for some great photos that I've seen around the photography blogs:
