Doily Themed Weddings : ideas and inspiration

After featuring many wedding gowns this week from the designers new collections - I can see that lace remains to be a HOT trend in weddings this year. But, for today, I wanted to take a little break from showcasing more gowns and share with you some inspiration for incorporating doilies into weddings. Doilies are such pretty patterns and remind me of lace so I put together an inspiration board featuring this dainty decor element. I put this inspiration board together after creating a brand new doily themed invitation design for my etsy shop {which is available as a print-at-home template or pre-printed with envelopes}. This doily bridal shower invitation can also be made into a wedding invitation as it's custom to your specifications. Coordinating paper goods can also be created - so anything you might need for your party can be designed.

Happy Monday. With today being my father's birthday I thought it would be fun to have a little celebration on my blog to start the day. What better way than to toss confetti? I have gathered up some of the many ways you can incorporate confetti into your wedding or celebration. I just LOVE the packaging ideas. So much fun!
