It’s no secret that weddings and parties LOVE dessert tables. It’s also no secret that cupcakes, pies, whoopie pies, cake pops and candy have been the most popular items! But watch out! A new sugary puff is in town, and it’s breaking mallow molds all over the country. Add them to your dessert table, serve on own or give them out as party favors but it’s no lie that your guests will love these gourmet marshmallows! Check out the link above for purchase info!

Dreamy, dreamy, dreamy!! Caroline and Andres’s wedding was simply that. All the elements of a perfect wedding day mashed together and  the best part – these two were just beaming at one another! Best yet, my dream of photographing at Beltane Ranch in Sonoma with the most fantastical couple came true. This handmade-with-love wedding will have you drooling over the gorgeous couple, family and friends along with the diy details. Big thanks to my lovely right-hand photo lady, Jenna! Enjoy the sneak peek! (more…)

AH! Totally screaming over these!  I wish more couples used cake stands for their weddings.  I understand that a wedding cake feeding over 100 people may not fit on this adorable vintage inspired cake stand by Clara French but maybe consider  inviting less people?! Learn more about Clara and her classic designs at the link above.

Cupcakes are here to stay and THAT makes me happy :)  Flipping through the latest issue of Martha Stewart Weddings, I found an amazing couple spreads of mouth-watering cupcake ideas.  Three tier cupcakes?! Um, yum!

Notice I didn’t use the word ‘budget’ in the title?  Don’t fret, I didn’t leave budget friendly info out!  The word on the street says Gin is in this year because of it’s complex and versatile flavor.  You can make swanky, old school favs like martinis and gimlets or casual sippys like sparkling gin and juice.  And by complex, I mean in-depth flavors not hard to make cocktails.  With diy trends all over the wedding scene, customizing a crafty cocktail fits right in!

I don’t know if this post’s inspiration came from the delicious veggie burrito I had last night or what?! Yummy!  But the trend reports conquer!  2009 is all about the tangy, spicy, savory, exotic tastiness of your wedding cocktail hors d’oeuvres.  So watch out crab cakes and mini burgers – bold sippy soups, chilled tofu, and asian-infused wraps are fighting for the platters carried by the server’s hands!
