Fresh Fruit - A great post wedding reception gift

Filed under: Wedding Gift — Tags: , , — rollerbladerdc @ 2:24 pm


The Fruit Company

So last night I decided to go out and have some fun on the town.  The thing is that I am seriously not in college anymore and I guess I forgot that I cannot drink like I used too.  Sure a few here and there are ok, but wow did I forget what limits are last night.   On a good note I did meet a really cute guy from Texas so Mike,,,if you ever find this post…it was amazing meeting you and hope to see you around sometime.

Anyways, onto my point.  Normally on Sundays I enjoy having a Mimosa or Bloody Mary with a cup of real coffee, but because of last night, I do not think that will be happening.  Instead, when I was looking through companies that wanted to advertise on my site I came across the above banner and it just hit me that a pear and blueberry smoothie would be ideal.

Not only would the pear taste sweet and good, the sugars would help me to get some energy and motivate me to be functional, but the blueberries have anti oxidants (I read all this on a juice bottle which is where I got the ebenfits of fruits from  hahahah well edible fruits ;-))  to help clean out the toxins from last nights drinking.  In addition, the liquids found in the fruit would help to hydrate me and make me feel better.  This lead me to think, how perfect of a gift is a monthly fruit basket or even just a fresh fruit basket showing up on the happy couple’s doorstep the morning after their wedding party or at their honeymoon suite.  If they had a little to much fun, they will need energy, liquids and they’ll probably be starving…why not give them something that is good for them and will help get them up and running again.

If you click this link, you will go to the fruit company where you can order your fruit in a fantastic package.  I haven’t ordered from this merchant yet, but I will soon.  Unfortunately since I have not ordered I cannot share the quality with you, but it does look damn good in the pictures hehehe….plus I have heard good things about them before.  Anyways, I think fruit makes a fabulous gift for the day after or to show up on the newly weds honeymoon suite door step to energize and re-charge them.  Order from the fruit company for your happy couple,,,,and feel free to send a basket my way too.  I’m off to ice my head lol!

Fall Wedding Favor Soap Sets - Oak Leaf Soaps

Filed under: wedding favor, wedding supplies — Tags: , , — rollerbladerdc @ 1:40 pm

Since we are already into fall and your autumn wedding is under way, I wanted to share with you all a fantastic wedding favor idea.  I found these oak leaf shaped decorative soaps at Beau Coup.  If you had planned a fall wedding and had trouble deciding what to get as a favor that would play into the fall theme,,,orange, brown, dark red, straw, jackets, yellows, etc… well this is a fantastic gift for your guests.

The floral scented Oak Leaf shaped soaps come in pairs and will delight your guests when they open the brown, decorative box that has a label on it saying “Fall in Love” .  Inside the box they will find two oatmeal colored (BTW I love oatmeal coloring for Fall weddings…it is the color most people avoid or forget abut for some reason.  Don’t let that happen to you.  Oatmeal blends in and compliments every other fall color, it is an off white so your other whites will really stand out and shine and it has a nice warm feeling to it which also makes it calming and soothing to your eyes.) oak leaf shaped soaps on a bed of straw with a delightful floral aroma.

Now, some people say that because it is a fall wedding and the soaps are for fall, they should smell like pumpkin or cinnamon apple, or gravy hehehe (I actually did get that question and can get enthusiastic about it, makes a perfect complimentary scent to your Thanksgiving cooking at least) well, although I agree, I would also say that because it is a wedding, the floral scent is also appropriate due to the flowers and lanterns so commonly found in your fall centerpiece.

Anyways, I encourage you all to at least buy one or two sets of these fabulous fall shaped wedding soap gift favors to see if you may want to order more for your Fall Wedding.

Name Changing Kits - Use this kit and save the hassle

Filed under: Uncategorized, wedding supplies — Tags: — rollerbladerdc @ 1:40 am

Order your name changing kit online. Click here! Weddings can be one of the biggest hassles of your life. There is soo much planning to do and you have a ton of minor things to think about. Although you probably have already thought about changing your name or last name, you probably realized you will not have the time to wait around for hours to actually change it. I found a solution to this issue.

While surfing the web looking for more wedding related sites and Merchants, I came across a kit you can order online which allows you to legally change your name for your wedding without having to wait at a public building or courthouse for hours. When evaluating the worth of this name changing kit, just think about those lines for passport changes or even worse the Drivers License Center to renew your photo ID,,,btw you may need to do that too when you change your name. When you think about the time you save that would have been lost in line, you will soon realize the value in ordering a name changing kit online. \

I personally think that your time is best spent planning your wedding, eating cake samples, finding the perfect wedding song and spending time with your future partner. The last thing you should have to do is wait in line for hours to go through a stupid process that should have only taken 20 minutes anyways.

Anyways, I found this kit online and wanted to share with all of you to hopefully save you time that you should never have lost in the first place. Order your name changing kit right now by clicking here to visit the site.

Spicing up your honeymoon and wedding night - Eden Fantasies

One thing that some people ask me is how can they make their wedding anniversary or even their honeymoon a bit more fun.  Well, I usually answer that if you need that something extra on your honeymoon, you are probably with the wrong person…but ohh well.  Anyways, there is always the people who do not need anything extra, but then again, sometimes they too want to make a game out of sex, so when I am asked how to do this, I simply present them with the following page from Eden Fantasties.

Now it may seem odd at first to play a game for sex, but think about it.  Games bring out excitement for people and start to challenge each other.  They can get your brain working, adrenaline pumping and if you think about it,,,sex is fairly similar.  They can both spark creativity and can both be very entertaining, so why not mix them.  If you click this link to Eden Fantasies, you’ll find a nice variety of board games that will not only challenge both you and your partner but they will help to stimulate you,,,well in a whole different way before your lover takes over.

Eden Fantasies offers multiple kinds of games and has one for just about everyone…they have a trivia game called Dirty Minds to stimulate you and you brain…Stacked…well, you get the idea.  Strip Chocolate which mixes artistic skills, saucy dares, and edible chocolate paint for a unique and playful experience.  Hell who doesn’t like chocolate, eating and love making…combine all three and you have a sure fire hit.

Some of the other games you will find at Eden Fantasies include Bare with me, strip poker for lovers, Sex Casino, Behind Closed doors, Passion Throw and more.  Like I said, you are sure to find the perfect game to provide you and your partner with a mind blowing and brain tingling good time.

I also wanted to add in that these games can also make for a funny game at your bachelor and bachelorete parties.  Hey, they are all about fun, sexuality and a last night out being single.

Bridal Gown Candles - A Really Cool Wedding Favor

Bridal Gown Candles

Bridal Gown Candles

So I was thinking that I haven’t recommended any non edible wedding favors yet. When I was searching through different vendors, I wanted to find something that was affordable, unique and something on the softer side. What I came up with is a fabulous wedding favor and present for your female guests. A wedding dress shaped Bridal Gown Candle from the Cheers Favor Company (Click this link to visit the site and order).

I am seriously loving this as a gift. The dress shaped candle is not only classic and gorgeous, but I love the little ribbon on it (which you can see in the picture to the left). The details on the candle are fabulous and you’re guests are going to love and cherish it for a long time.

If the guests have daughters, although they should not play with fire or candles, you can cut the wick off of it and it all of the sudden becomes a nice toy to play with for their doll houses and if they play a bride game. Just make sure that your daughter is old enough to not put it in her mouth or do anything that could hurt her.

The dress shaped bridal gown candle is such a classy gift and so versatile for many of your guests. Also, since you will be ordering many of them (you get discounts when you order more) you may want to keep one for your wedding memories box or to store with your wedding dress for memories. You may also love this candle soo much that you could even put it with your collectibles or trinkets for regular viewing in a display case, on a mantel or shelf or even in the bathroom to liven the room up. I absolutely adore the Bridal Gown Candles and know that you will enjoy them to. The other thing I would like to point out is the fabulous packaging that these gifts come in.

The candles come individually wrapped in a box that has clear walls on it with a gorgeous print making it look like the candle is a wedding dress on display at an elegant store. You cannot get a better way to have your gifts delivered to your guests. The other nice thing about the candles being packaged fabulously is that you and your family and friends will not have to spend hours wrapping and packing the favors and gifts on your own….it may seem fun at first but it gets old fast and very tiresome.

You can order your own wedding dress shaped candles by clicking this link and shopping at the Cheers Favor Company. I hope you and your guests enjoy these wedding favors as much as I enjoyed sharing them with you.

Paper Shouts - Bridal Party Invitations

Filed under: wedding supplies — Tags: , , — rollerbladerdc @ 4:00 am

So I was looking through card sites for a housewarming invitation and low and behold I find a site called Paper Shouts….I am loving them. Now, I do have my loyalties to my preferred card vendors and they are the ones I trust the most,,,I have also not tried ordering from Paper Shouts yet, however, Paper Shouts features a ton of gorgeous and fabulous card designs. I think they are also custom as I have never seen many of them before. There is one bridal invitation, they call it a Bridal Shout, that I particularly fell in love with.

Much like the banner above it is maroon and white with a great patterned baby blue stripe crossing it towards the upper middle section. This bridal invitation design is absolutely stunning, classy and would make a sure fire hit if you would decide to use it for your Bridal Party invitations. It is the type of unique card that will not only have all your friends complimenting your fantastic taste, but also asking where you found them. You can easily keep it as our little secret, or you can share with them, and make yourself seem like the savy and posh shopper, either way the design, color combination and overall appearance is absolutely delightful. Something else I like, not only about that bridal shout set, but with most of their designs is that they offer it as a full fledged invitation and thank you stationary solution.

By ordering from Paper Shouts, you not only get the perfect invitations to your bridal party, but you can also find the same fabulous thank you cards, party follow ups, sometimes save the dates and more. Anyways,,,click this link and visit Paper Shouts for all of your custom printed and fabulously posh card and invitation needs.

Plus Sized Wedding Dress - Kiyonna.com Belles

Filed under: clothing and Lingerie — Tags: , , — rollerbladerdc @ 2:17 am

Can you say fabulous?  I am in love with the Kiyonna Belles Plus Sized Wedding Dress Collection.  Kiyonna is a fantastic designer of plus sized women’s clothing and if you enjoy color block clothes, you should definitely check them out.  About a year and a half ago in Miami I had a talk with one of their reps and they showed me a new line that was coming out called the Kiyonna Belles Collection.

Now, technically Kiyonna does only design clothing, dresses and gowns for women, but because they design from size 12 and up, they also just so happen to create dresses and gowns that men can wear.  When they told me about their Belles Plus Size Wedding Gown collection I knew it would be a perfect addition to Gay Wedding Gear and I had to share it with all of you.  Not only are their wedding gowns and dresses gorgeous, but they are soo easy to manipulate and modify so that if it is almost perfect, but you want it longer, higher, a more defined train, etc… you can easily modify or have the Kiyonna Wedding Dresses modified for you.  If you are a person of size, or enjoy cross dressing in very classy and stylish clothing, I strongly encourage you to check out Kiyonna through this link which will land you on their Wedding and Cocktail dress section to start.

Mario Badescu - Citrus Body Wash

Filed under: Uncategorized — Tags: — rollerbladerdc @ 1:44 am

So in two of my previous posts I go on and on about Mario Badescu and his fabulous lines of skin care.  Well this post is the same.  From the last couple posts you could tell that I just moved across the country and when I arrived I went back to using a traditional soap and body wash….Huge Mistake.  Mario Badescu had sent me a sample bottle of their fabulous Citrus Body Cleanser (click the previous link to view and buy the Mario Badscu Citrus Body Wash.)

The body wash that I had switched to was also a citrus wash.  Much like the Mario Badescu Wash, it did not have an overpowering scent and it didn’t seem oily at first.  However, compared to the Mario Badescu Citrus Body Wash, I felt like crap after trying this.  I even used the loofa that came with the soap.

The thing that I enjoy about the Mario Badescu Body wash is that the smell is very discrete and it does not overpower you.  You feel clean after using it and once you rinse it off, there is no lingering oily feeling or slimy slippery skin.  You are just left with clean looking and feeling skin.  The lack of residue also makes your skin feel lighter and like it can breathe.  I absolutely love the Mario Badescu Citrus Body Cleanser/Wash, and although it is a bit pricey, it is well worth it.  I know that this body wash isn’t really wedding related, but I really needed to thank them for created this product, and hey, if you are the maid of honor and have to deal with a serious bridezilla, don’t you deserve a nice shower or bath and to come out with great looking, clean and breathable skin?  Click here to buy the Mario Badescu Citrus Body Cleanser.

Artiko Chef - A True Life Saver

Filed under: Wedding Gift — Tags: , , , — rollerbladerdc @ 11:37 pm

So I have spent the last 8 or 9 hours in the car traveling….I am seriously getting to old to road trip….and right now I would kill to have a properly cooked and fresh meal.  I mean, there are a ton of places here to eat, but you never know what the quality will be and if it is worth it.  I always wish there was some sort of consistency with travel food (before you get to your destination of course) and I only wish I was home right now where I have a few freshly prepared Artiko Chef meals.  I seriously should have remembered to grab some dry ice and pack them for the road.

I do love to cook, however, sometimes I am just to tired and that is why I am happy to have artiko chef by my side.  They have everything you can imagine appetizer and main course wise,,,the desserts are alright but if you want some serious taste delights,,,,you can never go wrong with an artiko chef prepared entree and appetizer.  They also make a perfect gift for the happy couple when they are returning from a long honeymoon and do not want to have to shop for groceries.  Surprising them with prepared gourmet meals from Artiko Chef will be the highlight of their trip as they will only have to heat up a perfectly prepped meal and then enjoy.  After a 10 hour flight,,,could you want anything else?  I also recommend ordering artiko chef’s appetizers for the night before your wedding at the rehearsal dinner and party.  Artiko Chef Appetizers are a sure fire hit that everyone will enjoy and because they come precooked and you just need to heat them up,,,they are the simplest thing to prepare and serve.  Anyways, I’m off to grab a bite,,,but I encourage you to click this link and at least order a small something so you can fall in love with Artiko Chef just as much as I have.

Light Up Pins for Bachlorette Parties - Bachelors Too.

Filed under: Bachelor and Bachelorete Party — Tags: , , , — rollerbladerdc @ 7:46 pm

Now, this is a store I am overly obsessed with.  It is called Flashy Blinky Lights (this link goes to the adult section).  Although they do have everything from light up and blinking shot glasses, eye glasses, glow sticks and necklaces, today I wanted to share with you another section on the Flashy Blinky Lights site for Bachelor and Bachelorette parties.

Flashy Blinky Lights.com is normally an extremely family friendly site as they feature blinking, light up and glow toys for every occasion, event, holiday and special day that we have.  However, they could not leave out a special section of their site as there is a large demand for various light up and blinking pins for Mardi Gras season in New Orleans, as well as Bachelor and Bachelorette parties where the future bride and groom to be like to get a bit crazy,  Although some people may feel uncomfortable about seeing a pin that looks like two big boobs or a large penis that also blinks with red strobe lights, for your bachelor or bachelorette party, even if you’re just planning a trip to Mardis Gras, it is completely acceptable.  It is your night to have fun, let loose and enjoy the last time in your life that you are going to be unclaimed.  You have every right to show your free spirit and sexuality and have some fun.  This is why I highly recommend getting some of your accessories from this link at Flashy Blinky Lights.

The one thing you will notice is that Flashy Blinking Lights.com only sells in bulk quantity.  Luckily though the quantities mostly start at 12 pieces which is ideal as there will be a few of you out together so everyone gets a blinking boob or penis pin and you may even have a couple to hand out to strangers on your night out on the town.  These light up toys also last for a heck of a long time.  I have a set of the women silhouettes and the thing is blinking over a year later.  I got them at a straight male friends bachelor party and fell in love.  When I found out what site they ordered them from, I simply had to share this with you all.  Please click this link or the banner above and order the perfect light up penis pins and boob pins for your bachelor or bachlorette party.
