Inspired by our Chocolate Brown and Ivory Flocked Favor Boxes, we dreamed up a vintage damask wedding and turned to Etsy for more image inspiration. Deep chocolate browns, and ivories with little pops of color in the stunning boutonierres by hairbowswonderworld, the light and feathery bouquet by ardesigns, and the colorful ribbon around the favor boxes (by us!). We think it all came together beautifully!

Mass Wedding in South Korea Sets World Record!

We love to read about wacky weddings, and this one definitely qualifies!

Reverend Sun Myung Moon who founded the Unification Church organized and set a record for the world's largest wedding on Wednesday at the church's Sun Moon University in South Korea.

Some 7,500 couples gathered with brides in white wedding gowns or the traditional dress of their country such as the Korean hanbok or the Japanese kimono. Some of the couples at the ceremony were exchanging vows for the first time, or renewing wedding vows; but others involved in arranged marriages were meeting and exchanging vows for the first time, according to this article on worldamazingrecords.com.

Reverend Moon has presided over mass weddings since the early 1960's and they have only grown in scale since then. Couples from Japan and the US were in attendance at the mass wedding on Wednesday.

Take a look at these photos! I'm not sure it's the way I would want to get married, but it would certainly have been memorable!

Farewell Modern Bride

Conde Nast has announced that it will close several magazines including Modern Bride and Elegant Brides due to a sharp decline in ad page sales. The larger magazine, Brides, which was a bi-monthly publication, will be going monthly as of next month.

Modern Bride was a favorite around here and we loved the glossy pages filled with perfect photos of DIY projects and ideas, and new trends in the wedding world.

Hopefully Conde Nast will retain some of the staff that built the Modern Bride and Elegant Brides brands over the last few years to create a national magazine that is bigger and better than ever!

Two New Personalized Favor Boxes!

We love adding fabulous new products to the store and we've got two that are not only super cute, but they're also totally budget-friendly!! If they look similar to the Stardream Pyramid Box and the Stardream Cube Box, that's because they are! These favor boxes are the same style, but now available in a new line of cardstock called the Basic Line.
The Basic Line is slightly lighter weight than the Stardream line, but it's still sturdy and can hold the perfect amount of candy or other favor items.

They are available in some bold colors that will make a statement on the tables at your special event. We LOVE the bright orange and lemon especially for Fall.

The Basic Line Pyramid box is available in any of the above colors for only $0.88 including personalization!

The Basic Line Colored Cube box is available in all shades above as well and is only $0.80 including personalization!

More favor boxes are coming soon! Take advantage of these amazing prices for your wedding!
