Did you know ? It’s not uncommon for couples in Colorado to include a flavored oxygen bar for guests to help fight off any altitude sickness.
So smart! 🌈

One of the invitation trends for 2024 comes to us from : “More and more brides are including several pages of additional details beyond the ceremony location. Including a reception and rsvp card is not new but now brides are including things like maps, weekend itineraries, accommodations or directions, or their love story.
This had led to a rise in popularity of pocket or all-in-one invitations to keep all of the pieces together.
Watercolor wedding invitations are another way to tell a compelling story about your love.”
What do you think about this trend? Tell us your thoughts in the comments ⬇️
To everyone out there, we hope that you have a happy & healthy holiday season. 🎄Wishing everyone the best & cheers to new memories being made 🥂

The color of 2024 is “Peach Fuzz”, so we’re curious - how many of you with plans for an event in 2024 are going to incorporate this color into your big day? 🍑 We want to hear from you!
A reminder to be yourself! So many times we forget & fall into the motions of how we think we’re supposed to be/act. Remember to be genuinely YOU. ❤️
Same goes for your events - go with what you want to do & where your heart leads. You don’t have to stick with what others do - make your event your own. We’ll be by your side to support you! 🤗

Considering a mountainous landscape for the backdrop of your wedding or event? ⛰️ A great tip from - “To let the setting shine, arrange ghost chairs around your altar. Instead of overshadowing the terrain, this acrylic seating option blends seamlessly into the environment.“

In Denmark, a bride will wear something in red as red symbolizes Love & it wards off evil spirits. ❤️ And a bride buying her own shoes is good luck. 👠

In honor of Native American Heritage Month, we wanted to share the tradition of the Vase Ceremony, as described by - “Tribes in the Southeast and Southwest may perform a wedding vase unity ceremony, in which they fill a vase with two holes on either side with water. The bride and groom drink from the water pouring from the vase as a toast to their union. A couple that can drink simultaneously without spilling a drop is anticipated to have good understanding with them throughout their marriage.”

The Day of the Dead is an ode to life and death and to the memory of those who have passed away. You don’t have to be Mexican to take part in this tradition. If you like the ritual of setting aside one or two days to remember your departed loved ones and putting up an ‘ofrenda’ (altar/offering) in honor of them, then this is a good practice to add to your first few days of November each year.
If you’re interested in setting up your own “ofrenda”, here are the most common items to include (via ):
1. Portraits of the departed.
2. Incense. For a Mesoamerican touch, preferably a copal scented one.
3. Tea light candles.
4. Items previously owned by the departed (small tokens like toys, books, jewelry, etc).
5. Favorite dishes and snacks of the departed.
6. Tons of Cempasúchil (Marigold flowers). You’ll need full flowers and loose petals. If you can’t find them, make ones out of orange and yellow tissue paper.
7. Papel picado (pecked paper). It could be the traditional banners made out of tissue paper.
8. Pan de mu**to (Day of the Dead bread) or any kind of bread.
9. Sugar skulls with the name of the departed written in the forehead.
10. Glass of water.
11. Salt.
12. Ash to make a cross (black sand was used for this one).
13. Liquor bottle to toast and celebrate. Of course, it has to be Mexican beer, tequila or mezcal!

Happy Sweetest Day! 🍫 Never heard of this? “Legend has it that Sweetest Day was established around 1922 by Herbert Birch Kingston, a Cleveland, Ohio candy company employee who wanted to bring happiness to the lives of those who often were forgotten. Kingston and others distributed candy and small gifts to orphans, people confined to their homes and others to show them that someone cared.”

#traditiontuesday Have you ever heard of cake pulls? @mimosahandcrafted tells of the history of cake pulls: “Also referred to as ‘ribbon pulling,’ the tradition’s roots date back to the 1600s. And although cake pulls are prevalent across Louisiana and other southern states, the tradition was actually brought over by the British. Cake pulls are like a bouquet toss with an extra personalized touch. Each charm has a special meaning or prediction. Often made of sterling silver, the charms serve as keepsakes that can be treasured long after the wedding takes place. It’s the perfect blend of dessert, jewelry, and fortune-telling. What’s not to love?!’ Some examples of their available charms: ALLIGATOR 🐊 (primal energy) - May you discover the innate energy inside you. ARTICHOKE (prosperous future) - May you realize the abundance of your future. BANANAS 🍌 (health) - May your body and mind be blessed with health. BEE 🐝(sweet life) - May you relish in life’s sweetness. CAMELLIA FLOWER (love and affection) - May you find adoration always.
