If you're like me you will fall in love with this Sex In The City inspired Abu Dhabi theme created by the talented Lindye Galloway and Aimee Grover aka Lindye Galloway Events. The girls (who are gorgeous in their own right) are featured in the latest Utterly Engaged online magazine (this mag is eye candy overload and love at first sight for me).
Pay a visit to their article on Utterly Engaged for all the stunning imagery and intoxicating color, and and be sure to watch their video below to see how they tied it altogether.
To re-create this look on a budget - I'm thinking a sexy evening outdoor affair - drape sheer fabric around the patio or outdoor area, hang colorful paper lanterns, group lots of twinkling candles and exotic Moroccan glasses on low tables, and then throw in as many bright and comfy cushions you can get your hands on. . . . dreamy.

Video Save-the-Dates are such a fun way for couples to express their style and vibe of their upcoming wedding.

Unique DIY Name Cards
August 31st, 2010 Christina Posted in DIY Wedding | No Comments »
Aren’t these DIY name cards/wedding favors fantastic? Nerissa over at The New Domestic created them for a housewarming party. She folded origami paper in half. Then she folded and glued the bottom and stiched the sides to create mini envelopes. She put random goodies inside the envelopes so her guests got a nice surprise when they opened their place cards.
