Fancy desserts and creative bunting just might be my two favorite things… put them together and, well, you know… I go weak at the knees.  The brilliant minds at Paper Stories (a Chicago-based boutique and letterpress company) came up with this gorgeous spread, featuring their custom ribbon bunting.

Umm.. Adorable.

I love that so many are celebrating our great earth this week. Eco-friendly weddings are such an important part of the picture - and many on Etsy recognize this.  Here are some ways to incorporate this trend into your day:

These plantable, handmade butterflies are amazing - they could be escort cards or favors, and come in various shapes and colors. Just wait until they bloom - they are gorgeous!

Repurposed, vintage teacup bracelets - a perfect shade of blue for the big day.

Such a cute favor idea - seed bombs!

Vintage forks as place card holders…so creative!

I get so excited about discovering new creative blogs out there, and Amelie’s House is simply amazing! Her blog about “baking, making and creating” has inspired me so I thought I’d share some of her brilliance with you.

Speechless over this butterfly cake:

She actually baked this Indian/Irish wedding cake for her cousin’s wedding:
