It's cold outside and I've been terribly busy</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sorry about that!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Other than schoolwork and planning our upcoming inspiration shoot (AH! more on that later....)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also was busy planning my dear friend's bridal shower.</div>

I thought our little tea party turned out cute :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now, as I mentioned- it's getting colder and colder outside and some couples have their weddings in the winter. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Just because your wedding is taking place in the coldest time of the year doesn't mean it your theme has to be Christmas trees and reindeer.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

If you're anything like me you will have realized by now there are millions of beautiful colors out there and choosing just one or two for your wedding is a daunting task.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">(I change my *hypothetical future* colors every other day)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I asked myself:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"Why have just a few colors at a wedding? -<br />
Why not have a <i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">r</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange;">a</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #ffd966;">i</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #6aa84f;">n</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #3d85c6;">b</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;">o</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: purple;">w</span></b></span></i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: purple;"> </span>of colors?!"<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i>*GASP!*</i></b><br />
<b><i><br /></i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"Ale, get a grip on yourself! People don't just have 10 wedding colors! It just isn't done- and it's so not classy..."</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I argued with my self about this for a good little while over Thanksgiving.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I did a little research, stepped out of my little colorless box I was living in and I begged to differ...with myself....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">(ahem...um....you know what I mean)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You don't have to choose just a few colors- be BOLD! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Change up the normal wedding pace </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Doing rainbow colors at a wedding can be classy!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here are some weddings to prove it :)</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Veils are all the rage.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I suppose they always have been the rage- but now veils aren't just long and white.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The whole definition is changing-</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and I LOVE IT!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">...and this coming from a girl who never wanted to wear a veil on her wedding day.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">Now, I'm warming up to the idea...and you can see why!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Wedding headpieces have character- and when it comes right down to it brides aren't expected to wear the traditional long white veil anymore</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There are so many more options to chose from!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Brides wear flowers, hats, lace, bows, crowns, jewels, headbands, and a variety of headpieces at weddings now...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And I LOVE it!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Take a look at these slightly less traditional hair pieces for your big day :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My favorite trend are these jeweled headbands- </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Gorgeous right?!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Thanks to our friends at <a href="http://www.wildflowerlinens.com/">Wild Flower Linens</a>, (who provided the actual linens for Edward and Bella's wedding reception in the Breaking Dawn movie!!), we were able to recreate a table straight from Edward and Bella's wedding. How amazing is that?! </div>

Now that you've seen how to create the look for these two parties- it's time to talk activities. What fun is a party without the right kind of entertainment?! At Utah Events by Design, we understand how important it is to make sure your guests have a good time at your event. That's why we've come up with some entertaining Twilight inspired..........</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<u><br />
</u></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><b>Party Games!</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here are some fun ways to ensure your guests have a great time at your Twilight-inspired event: </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Twilight Character Guessing Game-</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<ol>
<li style="text-align: center;">Each guest attending the party selects a fashionable button that has a character on it from the Twilight series. </li>
<li style="text-align: center;">Then, each party guest selects another person at the party and pins their button on that person's back. The reason for this is so that nobody knows which Twilight character they have.</li>
<li style="text-align: center;">Next, guest ask other party members only "yes or no" questions about the character pinned to their back, and the first one to guess which Twilight character they are wins! For example, questions could be something like: "Does my character sparkle?" or "Does my character attend high school?" and so on.</li>
</ol>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Breaking Dawn Quote Game-</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This game has a special element to it because it can easily be incorporated into the party decor. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<ol>
<li style="text-align: center;">Simply select quotes spoken by characters within the book. </li>
<li style="text-align: center;">Next, put each quote in a picture frame or somewhere around the room with a number next to it.Make sure you don't identify which Twilight character actually said the quote. </li>
<li style="text-align: center;">Then, throughout the night, guests try to identify which Twilight character is associated with the quotes. They can can keep track of their answers by by filling out a quote card that can be given to them when they arrive at the party (another fun idea is to include the quote card in a party favor bag full of twilight paraphernalia that each guest is given upon arrival at the party). </li>
<li style="text-align: center;"> The guest who correctly identifies the most amount of quotes wins!</li>
</ol>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Twilight Character Charades-</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<ol>
<li style="text-align: center;">Divide the group into Team Jacob/ Werewolves and Team Edward/ Vampires evenly.</li>
<li style="text-align: center;">Every member of Team Jacob will impersonate a vampire or human character from the book and it's up to Team Edward to figure out who the are as quickly as possible.</li>
<li style="text-align: center;">Switch sides so that every member of Team Jacob then has to guess who Team Edward players are impersonating.</li>
<li style="text-align: center;">Each team gets three minutes and whichever team guesses the most amount of characters wins! </li>
</ol>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Yeah, I thought so too.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now, I have nothing against mints or bubbles as wedding favors- but you might be looking for a something a little more creative (and maybe slightly less cliche).</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Depending on the theme, colors, and feel of your wedding there are infinite possibilities when it comes to the little nuggets you send home with your guests.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It's all about remembering your big day right?</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So, your favors should follow the theme of your wedding and show your personality as well.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The 1920's are the epitome of style in my book.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Sometimes I feel like I was born in the wrong era- I love everything 20s, 30s and 40s.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When it comes to weddings- the 1920's are in and you can see why!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-wyRFZtibZkI/Tq3v9i3IS7I/AAAAAAAABxg/RrDQQfHZXmQ/s1600/20%2527s+dress.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-wyRFZtibZkI/Tq3v9i3IS7I/AAAAAAAABxg/RrDQQfHZXmQ/s400/20%2527s+dress.jpg" width="266" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Flappers were the height of style in the 20s.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was a time of change- women were free of huge skirts and instead of the times defining the style....the style defined the times.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
What I mean is flappers were seen as independent women- it was a time of cutting loose and having fun.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Women become more free spirits so to speak.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
These women were fun and mysterious and willing to be edgy and take on the world on their terms.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Sounds a little bit like today huh?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Maybe history is repeating itself just a little bit or maybe it's fashion repeating itself.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Either way, when it comes to weddings - the 1920s look is all about the free spirited flappers that defined an era.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
A successful wedding is the sum of it's parts. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
At Utah Events by Design- we make those parts happen...then we put them together and create a masterpiece. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(not to brag or anything)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We dedicate a LOT of time making each part of your wedding amazing- details are everything!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
A bride spends time thinking about the dress, the flowers, the venue, and the groom of course....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but something that can be easily overlooked is the lighting.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I love lights.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I will be the first one to admit that my favorite part of the upcoming holiday season is the lights...hands down.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
That love extends to weddings as well. Obviously.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Not every venue you choose will be totally equipped for the lighting you want.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
In fact, a lot of people just make do with what is there.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Nothing wrong with that.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Just remember-</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Lights can create the mood you are looking for at your wedding. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And let's face it....they're just pretty!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here are my top ten favorite lighting ideas:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1. Stringing lights across a space.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And check out those balls of lights</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bicmp-6Ly0M/TqR2r08M3zI/AAAAAAAABrU/26IKpwUyCn8/s1600/30036723_DxrDWAxJ_c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bicmp-6Ly0M/TqR2r08M3zI/AAAAAAAABrU/26IKpwUyCn8/s400/30036723_DxrDWAxJ_c.jpg" width="266" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
2. More stringing and more strands of lights.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I love this in a barn setting- rustic and elegant.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
3. Candles.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Probably the most used mood setter at weddings...and for good reason!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The flickering lights are romantic and beautiful</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
4. Ok I know these aren't lights....just light bulbs- </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but creatively using lightbulbs can be so fun!</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

5. Creating "Stars"</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Look at this....the candles, the centerpieces. the starlights on the ceiling</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
All the right parts just glow and the effect is amazing!</div>
<br />

6. MASON JARS!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Put candles or even lightbulbs in them</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Either way you get a very earthly feel to an out-of-this-world day</div>

7. Tea-lights + Flowers = wow</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Use candles and mix it with flowers and not only do the flowers glow, but the water in the vases reflects the light and the entire tables seems to glow.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Couple this with low lighting in the rest of the room and you have a very intimate atmosphere</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Peaceful and pretty. </div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;">Well there are many definitions, but mine is simply the recent trend to have couples pick a VERY specific theme for their engagement photos and go CRAZY with it. </span></span></div>

If a picture speaks a thousand words....how many does a video speak?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well, when if comes to wedding videos the answer is infinite.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used to be a firm believer in having a photographer take engagement and wedding photos- that's it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Why have a videographer film what the photographer is already capturing in my pictures?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh, how wrong I was.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In the past year I've done my research and there is something about capturing the movement and interaction between couples through film that intrigues me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A film for your engagement or wedding day can really do justice to the personalities of the bride and groom that pictures can't.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now, I'm not saying to forget your photographer and just go with a videographer.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Far from it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Photographers are amazing. Some are even brilliant.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Same with videographers.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm simply saying- if you haven't wanted a videographer before....maybe it's time to reconsider.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here are my some of my favorite videos to help you make up your mind:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
First Casey and Brandon. This is certainly my style of wedding. I pretty much love everything about it....and nothing....<b><i>nothing</i></b>....can compare to the look on Brandon's face when Casey walks down the isle. :) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">(Music by Ingrid Michalson.... I just love her! Video <a href="http://vimeo.com/26027842">via</a>.)<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif; line-height: 18px;"> </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
These next two are actually engagement videos. This is Jana and Billy's video for their engagement. I love their style, the uniqueness of their shots, and not to mention the music (one of my faves Rilo Kiley).</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="180" src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/6060766?title=0&byline=0&portrait=0&color=ffffff" webkitallowfullscreen="" width="400"></iframe>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">(Music by Rilo Kiley. Video <a href="http://vimeo.com/6060766">via</a>.)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is Lex and Loren. They made their engagement video themselves. It takes a little bit of skill and creativeness, but I love the way theirs turned out. This one is a perfect example of capturing the individual personalities of a couple in love. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="225" src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/15796763?title=0&byline=0&portrait=0&color=ffffff" webkitallowfullscreen="" width="400"></iframe>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(Music by Melanie Safka - one of my favorites as well...you can tell music really makes these videos for me! Video <a href="http://vimeo.com/15796763">via.</a>)<span id="goog_285191102"></span><span id="goog_285191103"></span><a href="http://www.blogger.com/"></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, whether you decide to make a wedding video, engagement video, combine the two, or do none at all...make sure, like your photos, that the video fits your personality and shows the love between you and your partner.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's something to show the grandkids right?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

This past weekend we set up camp in the Bridal Expo at the South Town Expo Center. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Although I'm not exactly an unbiased observer - our booth was by FAR the best :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Michelle brought elements from our recent <a href="http://utaheventsbydesign.blogspot.com/2011/09/chevron-harvest-our-11-fall-inspiration.html">inspiration shoot</a> to show the brides-to-be.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hello again!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now I don't want to give anyone the idea that I don't like bridal showers after my thoughts on <a href="http://utaheventsbydesign.blogspot.com/2011/09/bidalette-shower.html">Bridalette Showers</a>. To prove it- this post is solely dedicated to bridal shower ideas.</div>

Getting the chance to host a bridal shower means the pressure is on. I mean EVERYONE has gone to a bridal shower with rather lame games that seem to last forever and you certainly don't want to throw a party like that. But you have to give the hostess some credit; it's not easy coming up with fun ideas and themes for the shower. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hopefully this post can help. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here are a few ideas I've complied to get those creative juices flowing:</div>
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;"><b>ABC Shower</b>: Each person is assigned a letter and they bring a gift that starts with that letter. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;"><b>Always a Bridesmaid</b>:Invite the guests to wear a bridesmaid's dress (or prom dress) from another wedding. Have all guests vote on the most ugliest, out-dated, obnoxious, etc. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;"><b>Can't Live Without It</b>: Each guest should bring something that they have found that they just can't live without as a gift for the bride. It can be really fun and interesting to see what other people think they can't live without. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;"><b>Centerpiece Giveaway</b>: If you have centerpieces at the shower and don't want to keep them all, here's an idea. Get everyone to fill out their name and address on some thank-you note size envelopes. Put them in a bowl and have the bride draw names at the end of the shower to give the centerpieces away. This way door prizes are given and when the bride goes to write her thank-you notes they will already be addressed! </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;"><b>15/20 Recipe Shower</b>: For this shower, everyone brings with them a recipe that will not take more than 15 - 20 minutes to prepare. This helps the newlyweds get off to a good starting spending romantic dinners together after a hard day at work, with little effort! </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;"><b>Shower by Mail</b>: If family and friends are spread across the country, this "shower" works well. Think of a theme, and send shower invitations to friends and relatives. Include extended family (i.e. aunts and grandmothers) as well. Send them in advance and specify a weeks period of time in which to mail the gift. During that week, the bride will be showered with gifts via the mail. Usually the bride will be very surprised, not expecting a shower at all. She will feel very much loved by the end of her shower week! </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;"><b>Travel/Honeymoon Shower</b>: Ideas for this shower might be luggage, a travel alarm, camera, binoculars, maps, travel guides, travel clothes, etc. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;"><b>Wedding Album</b>: Have all the guests bring their wedding albums to the shower. It's fun to look at the old photos and see people in funny hairdo's and dresses, etc. It's a could way to get the guests to mingle and meet each other. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;"><br /></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;">Whether the theme is spa greens and blues....</span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;">Surprisingly, having reached the ripe old age of 22 I've seen about 70% of my friends from high school and college get married. That being said, I've seen my fair share of weddings and have attended QUITE a few bridal showers. Oddly enough, I haven't attended very many bachelorette parties....and let me tell you why. Most of the bridal showers I've attended have been a mixture of bridal shower and bachelorette party. I like to call these Bridalette Showers and somehow they NEVER turn out very classy. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;">I've never quite understood why bridesmaids and friends combined these two parties. Maybe they don't want to plan something separate, or maybe guests just don't understand the difference. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;">Traditionally, bridal showers were meant for friends of the bride to come together and bring her gifts to help her plan the wedding and start a home.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;">Bachelorette parties on the other hand are an excuse for the bride and her close friends to get together and have one last hoorah as a single girl. Gifts for the honeymoon come in here. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-TBYtyQy1-ng/TnOS-V2XoKI/AAAAAAAABnY/Vt9HTfVhOXI/s1600/bride.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-TBYtyQy1-ng/TnOS-V2XoKI/AAAAAAAABnY/Vt9HTfVhOXI/s320/bride.jpg" width="320" /></a></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial; text-align: center;">
Here is the definition of a Bidalette Shower and a few suggestions on how to avoid it (if you plan to):</div>
<div style="font-family: arial; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;">A Bridalette Shower is simply a shower where guests bring gifts, but the invitation didn't specify the kinds of gifts that are needed/welcomed. Close friends of the bride, her mother and possibly even her grandmother are invited. Friends of the bride bring *hem hem* sexy clothing and toys, while mom and grandma bring kitchen and home accessories. All guests invited and the bride especially become very embarrassed when it's time to open gifts- for obvious reasons.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial; text-align: center;">
Now there are exceptions to every rule- some brides have grandmothers who'd be the first to give them sexy playthings for the wedding night and others have friends who would never DREAM for getting them such things for a bridal shower. </div>
<div style="font-family: arial;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But for the sake if classiness we have to plan for the worst.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is often through no fault of the bride herself that these things happen. It's the responsibility of the bridesmaids or best friend or even a designated keeper of classiness to keep these two separate. </div>
</div>
<div style="font-family: arial; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: arial; text-align: center;">
So how do you avoid the confusion and embarrassment?</div>
<div style="font-family: arial; text-align: center;">
Simple.</div>
<div style="font-family: arial; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: arial; text-align: center;">
<b>For the planners:</b></div>
<div style="font-family: arial; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: arial; text-align: center;">
Make sure the invitation indicates what kind of bridal shower it is. For the kitchen, for the bathroom, etc.</div>
<div style="font-family: arial; text-align: center;">
You can put any kind of theme or even just a specific mention to where the bride is registered to give guests a clue to what they should bring.</div>
<div style="font-family: arial; text-align: center;">
or</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;">Have a friend shower separate from the family shower. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial; text-align: center;">
or</div>
<div style="font-family: arial; text-align: center;">
Make sure friends know there will be a bachelorette party for the more outrageous gifts.</div>
<div style="font-family: arial; text-align: center;">
or</div>
<div style="font-family: arial; text-align: center;">
If the bride isn't a bachelorette party kind of person- ask that gifts of a more private nature be saved for after the shower or at least be labeled so the bride knows what she is getting into.</div>
<div style="font-family: arial; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: arial; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;"><b>For the guests:</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;">BE SMART.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;"> Give the gift that is appropriate for the occasion.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;">or</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;"> If you really can't resist, attach a note to your gift asking for it to be opened later "for the wedding night."</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;">Don't forget that you are free to join in the new craze and splurge the two parties together (it does save time in the pre-wedding craziness), but be sure to make sure everyone involved is comfortable!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;">Let's keep it classy ladies.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>

They can tie in your colors, make centerpieces pop, and overall change the way your wedding looks and feels.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
But let's face it: </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Flowers can be one of the most expensive items on your wedding list.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Nowadays, it's not very hard to get the flowers you want during any season- but you might have to pay the price depending on what you want.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's always going to be cheaper if the flowers you want are in season. </div>

It's also a plus if the flowers are grown locally. This fun little website called <a href="http://www.blissweddings.com/weddingfloral/">Bliss Weddings</a> has a wedding floral generator to help you look at colors, what's in season, and if any of the flowers you want are grown locally.</div>

No matter what season your wedding is in- or what flowers you choose to have make sure it reflects your personality and what you love. </div>

</div><div style="text-align: left;">Pinterest is basically an online collage maker- but so much better!</div><div style="text-align: left;">The website says it's a virtual pinboard to collect the things you love. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-MGq-YO4hSM8/Tl_NbghPQpI/AAAAAAAABlY/gpYRGIc5_n8/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-09-01+at+12.06.35+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="81" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-MGq-YO4hSM8/Tl_NbghPQpI/AAAAAAAABlY/gpYRGIc5_n8/s400/Screen+shot+2011-09-01+at+12.06.35+PM.png" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-qmfE2yb8E54/Tl_NTbNruAI/AAAAAAAABlM/BTlre1crdNk/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-09-01+at+11.54.56+AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-qmfE2yb8E54/Tl_NTbNruAI/AAAAAAAABlM/BTlre1crdNk/s400/Screen+shot+2011-09-01+at+11.54.56+AM.png" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">Simply put, once you sign up you can "pin" pictures online and separate them into "boards"</div><div style="text-align: left;">Each board has a theme.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-3jfbX6-AnSc/Tl_O04wGacI/AAAAAAAABlg/Fx7L7hXPmhw/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-09-01+at+12.27.53+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="211" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-3jfbX6-AnSc/Tl_O04wGacI/AAAAAAAABlg/Fx7L7hXPmhw/s400/Screen+shot+2011-09-01+at+12.27.53+PM.png" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">I have many- but my favorite by FAR is the one I have called "Wedding Loves"</div><div style="text-align: left;">In here I have all things wedding related.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-uGxz9O-2RUk/Tl_NZEkFI_I/AAAAAAAABlQ/F9_XxfrtRpI/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-09-01+at+11.56.16+AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-uGxz9O-2RUk/Tl_NZEkFI_I/AAAAAAAABlQ/F9_XxfrtRpI/s400/Screen+shot+2011-09-01+at+11.56.16+AM.png" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">The best part is, once something is pinned you can always click on it and it'll return you to the site the picture originally came from.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Hc6tW6NG4P4/Tl_NbE7JogI/AAAAAAAABlU/hhjlV9KgcwY/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-09-01+at+11.56.43+AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="302" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Hc6tW6NG4P4/Tl_NbE7JogI/AAAAAAAABlU/hhjlV9KgcwY/s400/Screen+shot+2011-09-01+at+11.56.43+AM.png" width="400" /></a></div><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">That way you can always return to the source.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">Let's face it- as much as I love perusing magazines for wedding ideas- it's just not worth my time to cut out pictures constantly. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">And- once you cut the picture out...you don't remember where the picture came from.</div><div style="text-align: left;">Pinterest saves you all that trouble.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">The site is connected to facebook so your facebook friends can follow your boards and vice versa.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-8G9_HEy6FiA/Tl_OxUO4ReI/AAAAAAAABlc/wW-sYAma4JQ/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-09-01+at+12.27.08+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-8G9_HEy6FiA/Tl_OxUO4ReI/AAAAAAAABlc/wW-sYAma4JQ/s400/Screen+shot+2011-09-01+at+12.27.08+PM.png" width="161" /></a></div><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">You can also browse the site as a whole and repin whoever else's pins you want with no restrictions.</div><div style="text-align: left;">You don't have to be friends with someone on pinterest to view their boards and repin their ideas.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">No one is limited to repinning everyone elses ideas.</div><div style="text-align: left;">Say you see something online you would like to pin. (I do this a lot when I'm wedding blogstalking)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-P9oEwEVdzCo/Tl_SbYrStlI/AAAAAAAABlk/lZvZWtuMc4c/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-09-01+at+12.35.23+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="225" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-P9oEwEVdzCo/Tl_SbYrStlI/AAAAAAAABlk/lZvZWtuMc4c/s400/Screen+shot+2011-09-01+at+12.35.23+PM.png" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">There is a "Pin It" tool you can attach to your web browser's toolbar.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-QjzqxLjxI14/Tl_Sb60KppI/AAAAAAAABlo/TEHxruxGOXM/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-09-01+at+12.39.04+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="56" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-QjzqxLjxI14/Tl_Sb60KppI/AAAAAAAABlo/TEHxruxGOXM/s400/Screen+shot+2011-09-01+at+12.39.04+PM.png" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">Whenever you see something you want to pin- simply click the "Pin It" tool.</div><div style="text-align: left;">Then chose the picture you want to pin.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-pCG9UaB5m5c/Tl_Sitod3TI/AAAAAAAABl0/V5fw5sEbzCo/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-09-01+at+12.40.48+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="197" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-pCG9UaB5m5c/Tl_Sitod3TI/AAAAAAAABl0/V5fw5sEbzCo/s400/Screen+shot+2011-09-01+at+12.40.48+PM.png" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">You can describe the pin and decide what board you want it in.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-s3Z0DjHM4HU/Tl_Sk5vWmGI/AAAAAAAABl4/fGOK3zFszCU/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-09-01+at+12.41.08+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="197" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-s3Z0DjHM4HU/Tl_Sk5vWmGI/AAAAAAAABl4/fGOK3zFszCU/s400/Screen+shot+2011-09-01+at+12.41.08+PM.png" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">And voila!</div><div style="text-align: left;">It's pinned for you to look back through later. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">So, how do you use this for your wedding?</div><div style="text-align: left;">Simple, not everyone has a set idea of what they want for their wedding when the time comes.</div><div style="text-align: left;">Pinterest is perfect for visually getting ideas together about colors, dresses, cakes- anything wedding related.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-MFLnzoPg5VU/Tl_UumEsviI/AAAAAAAABmY/Tr1nS8OMgqk/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-09-01+at+12.53.00+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="267" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-MFLnzoPg5VU/Tl_UumEsviI/AAAAAAAABmY/Tr1nS8OMgqk/s400/Screen+shot+2011-09-01+at+12.53.00+PM.png" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">The next step is to take all these ideas to someone like Michelle who can make all these ideas into reality!</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">It makes it so much easier for everyone involved in wedding planning to have ideas to start with.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">Enjoy Pinning!</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

I've totally abandoned this blog for a few consecutive months now. But truth be told? Wedding season hit us like a ton of bricks. To put things into perspective? I haven't had a wedding-free weekend since the middle of July, and won't until after October 7th. <br />
<br />
Complaining? NO! We love all the awesome brides we've been working with and the fun weddings we have and are currently designing and planning. It's been a blast. But it's also been a real time consumer which left zero time for blog attention :(<br />
<br />
So other than planning the most wonderful, beautiful Utah weddings EVER (cuz let's be honest, they are), what have we been up to? Only the following bazillion things:<br />
<ul><li>Several photo shoots given that a lot of really great and talented photographers have approached us to stage their shoots.</li>
<li>Planning and executing<a href="http://onceuponawedding.net/"> <span style="background-color: white; color: blue;">Once Upon a Wedding</span></a> (July) which was seriously THE ultimate bridal experience (see the virtual design gallery pics on our facebook fan page).</li>
<li>Participating in the largest wedding show of the year: La Caille's Bridal Extravaganza.</li>
<li>Designing the wedding for La Caille's $100,000 dream wedding winners (congrats again to Ami and Greg, one of the sweetest couples we've met!)</li>
<li>Chattin' it up and forming relationships with some kick-A Utah wedding vendors.</li>
<li>Prepping for the gajillion fall weddings we have.</li>
</ul>See? We've been so busy there's been no time to blog!<br />
<br />
BUT! We have an awesome intern, Ale, who will be taking over things in terms of blogging for a while. She has a really exciting blog schedule lined up and I can't wait to see all the neat and creative things she's going to discuss over the next few months. You're going to love her and all her fantastic, creative ideas.<br />
<br />
So for now, stay tuned as we wrap up some really awesome events (be sure to check our facebook fan page to get your fill of event pics) and help me welcome Ale to the blog as our main contributor!<br />
<br />
Talk soon!<br />

</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">AMB Photo Co.has a fresh and modern way with the camera that always adds sweet surprises to their work. They do something unique in the industry in that they nearly always shoot with 2 photographers, allowing them to capture endless details and fleeting moments thanks to their paparazzi style. This also means that you end up getting nearly twice as many photos with loads of different angles and perspectives. And just look how cute the finished product is:</span></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
