Painterly Paper For Your Wedding Day

{ Via: Momental Designs }

I ran across the most beautiful wedding invitation somewhere on the Internet, and followed the link. It took me to Momental Designs. They create unique and custom watercolor wedding stationery featuring the artwork of Kristy Rice. Each invitation, menu, table number, etc. is hand painted. I am still in awe of her work.  Kristy also has a presence and shop on Etsy, called Paint Crush Paper.   Scroll down to see more of her work,  and that of many other talented artisans.

Wedding Wednesday: Shades Of Purple Are Trending

{ Via: Elegant Wedding Invites }

On my first date with "Mr Shop This,"I wore a white dress with a lavender linen long vest. Little did I know that it was the color of romance, at least this year it is. As a matter of fact, we started seeing shades of purple at the end of 2018, and the trend is expected to be one of the strongest color stories of the year. After putting together this edit, I can see why brides are choosing these stylish shades.
