This storybook charm from waxing poetic is the perfect accessory to any necklace for a wedding.  Perfect for a bride or for the mother of the bride, the storybook page charm from waxing poetic is perfect for winter weddings.  This is one of my favorite vintage styled necklace charms from Waxing Poetic.

One of my favorite things about winter wedding fashions is that winter wedding clothing is all about vintage styles and metallic clothing colors.  You have to think and remember old styles in Hollywood from the 1920′s and Hollywood Glam and also 1970′s styled outfits as well.  Think Victor Victoria or even of Catherine Zeta Jones and Renee Zellweger in Chicago styled clothing and gowns.  You can also wear dark colored fur stoles or fake fur coats and jackets and you can also wear studio 54 styled 70’s disco clothing, but updated to be modern.  Winter weddings are about classic and vintage and they are about showing up in layers of clothing that are able to let you change looks when you take one off and have a brand new look that you didn’t expect to have on underneath.

When you arrive at the wedding you want to show off the long fur coat or a fur shawl with a long trench coat.  Try to have a silky or a satin lining inside the jackets or coats so that when you take it off to show a pencil styled skirt or piped gown or even just a layered or classic slinky styled metallic vintage Hollywood glamour gown, it’ll show it off and make everyone take a second glance.  Nothing looks sexier than those types of gowns and hair styles against a silk lined coat.

If you aren’t into piping or pencil skirts and tops for winter weddings, you cannot go wrong with gowns and vintage styled dresses in metallic golds, silvers and bronze colors.  Not only are these looks timeless and the colors ideal, but you also have a choice between gowns that are low cut in the back and have bottoms that flow together or define colors and fabrics in layers or you could always try to wear a vintage styled winter gown with petals or with layers or even just slinky fabric flowing down.  Think of the gowns you would see on Marilyn Monroe or even on the fun blond girl who sings the Chicago song from the movie version of the Broadway show Victor Victoria.

For winter wedding hairstyles, I always love classic looking but modern vintage style with waves, curls and bobby pins. One thing you can also pull off with a vintage gown and theme are accents for your hair as well.  Not only do these work well, but they are perfect for Winter Weddings.  Think Madonna in Evita, that is the classic look and style that we are going for. Now lets go over Winter Wedding Jewelry.

The jewelry for Winter Weddings should be vintage styled but also have some sort of modern twists to it if you are not able to afford authentic vintage jewelry with gemstones.

If you can do antique jewelry and can afford the gems then you should try to stick to jewelry in golds and silvers that match the metallic gold and silver gowns that you are wearing.  You also want to make sure that you don’t go modern but you wear vintage styled jewelry with a more modern feel so that your jewelry and outfit match and you don’t look out of place.

For gem stones, you’ll want to use emeralds or rubies to add in some color or if you are able to find dark purple amethysts, wear them to add in some color but make sure you have a large dark purple amathyst ring with a large stone as that is what will make amethyst and vintage metallics for together and look amazing.  If you decide to go with emeralds and emerald earrings you’ll want to wear emerald bracelets or bracelets with emerald accents and if you want to wear rubies and ruby earrings, match your ruby earrings with a dark red ruby and yellow gold ring with gold metallic gowns.  Do not match red rubies with silver gowns or wear them with silver jewelry for winter.  It not only looks awful for winter weddings but it is rude to wear and not nice to do to the bride.  It shows bitterness and anger towards the bride or married couple.

The other style that I love and that seems to work extremely well for winter weddings are the 1970′s styled clothing but with very modern twists, colors and fabrics.  You can use the amazing lines and silhouettes and really cool shoes, you probably shouldn’t wear platforms or fishbowl shoes but you can follow the style of lines and really cool shapes by wearing shoes with cool backs and sides or even modern styled heals.

For jewelry, find vintage styled but updated jewelry because the 70′s are over and you don’t want to show up in full bell bottoms and hippy styled jewelry looking like you just did a ton o cocaine on a dancefloor.  Instead, you could wear vintaged styled modern designs that are not only chic, but tie in the emo look and you’ll have a classic and fashionable winter wedding look.

If you are lost on what I am talking about, especially with Jewelry or you just don’t know where to shop for the types of Jewelry I am talking about, try visiting a site that I wrote about a while back called Waxing Poetic.

Waxing Poetic creates the most amazing and fabulous vintage styled modern designs and they also have the most amazing collection of perfect winter wedding jewelry and jewelry that you could actually wear every day.    I have to be honest and let you know that I have not actually been able to try on their jewelry in person, but I have met and am meeting with some people from their Marketing Team in a few weeks and I will hopefully get to try their jewelry on and let you know that I fell in love with their vintage jewelry and vintage styled modern designs even more.  I absolutely love the images of their jewelry on their site and after speaking with their Marketing team I feel very comfortable recommending them to you.  I put some of my very favorite designs from Waxing Poetic in this post so take a look at them and let me know what you think.  If you want to see their entire collection, click any of the images or text links and you’ll be taken to their site.

Waxing Poetic Pearl Jewelry – Perfect modern wedding pearls

Filed under: accessories,bride,Fall,Jewelry,Mother of the Groom,wedding vendors,Winter Weddings — Tags: , , — rollerbladerdc @ 1:36 am

So I found out that my one friend who works for one of my favorite wedding vendors had parted ways with them and it kind of started my day out on a bad note. On a good note though he ended up going to work for a website that I had never heard of before called Waxing Poetic.  I really didn’t get why I would promote or talk about a site called waxing poetic but I knew there had to be a reason that he would tell me to just take a look without saying another word or answering my questions.  Not only did I take a look at the site but I was instantly inspired….I didn’t realize how well he knew me and my tastes.

Waxing Poetic is a site that sells modern styled jewelry with a very classic and somewhat antique twist.  The first few products I found when searching the waxing poetic website were the pearl necklaces and pearl bracelets.  Not only do I love how they are sort of dark and sort of emo goth looking but they are also classic and extremely classy looking.  With the new lines of fall and winter wedding gowns coming out, I could only see these bracelets and necklaces being used.

The waxing poetic pearl jewelry is absolutely 100% perfect and amazing for fall and winter wedding jewelry.  It is thick, darker, classic and antique.  They blend into the outfits perfect and highlight your wedding bands and rings as well as your outfits and gowns.   They can be used for bridesmaids gifts but also for the actual bride.

You can buy the smaller or the bracelets with fewer strands for the bridesmaids and the fuller jewelry for the bride and even get the longer necklaces for the Mother of the bride or Mother of the grooms.  Either way this jewelry is an absolute must have for everyone for their weddings.   If you look at almost any fall line or winter line, you are seeing dark colors, denim colors and the wedding gowns are using shadows and darker accents.  That is what makes the waxing poetic pearl jewelry absolutely perfect for just about any fall or winter wedding and because they have classic antique looks they will be in style and in fashion for just about every year in the future.

It is very rare to find jewelry that can last multiple seasons but I think that Waxing Poetic has found the way to solve that issue.  I love when people take antique and classic looks and make them modern, but also make them work and that is what Waxing poetic has done.  Although I have never shopped there and have no need to shop there right now, I do love their designs and highly recommend you check their store out.

Three ring pearl wedding necklace

 Waxing Poetic Free Form Pearl Wrap Necklace – $ 250.00
There is just something I love about the three ring pearl necklaces for weddings.  They could mean anything from past, present and future all linked together to the two brides or two grooms or bride and groom becoming one with the white hoop in the middle or about a million other meanings.  This is one of my favorite more modern styled pearl necklaces and can easily accent a more modern or metallic wedding dress.

modern bridal pearl bracelet

 Waxing Poetic Square Insignias 5 Chain Bracelet – $ 130.00
If you are an extremely modern bride or want something different for your bridesmaids, this amazing and gorgeous chain bracelet is the perfect way to make a statement and compliment your wedding gown or your bridesmaids wedding gowns.  There is just something I love about this, its like Tiffany’s meets alternative or punk rock.  I personally love this for an extremely edgy and modern bride, but then again it may also be hard to pull off if you don’t pick the right dress or accessories to match and make it blend and mesh in.

silver rings pearl wedding necklace

 Waxing Poetic Free Form Pearl Necklace – $ 125.00
This is one of the most classic styles of pearl wedding necklaces for brides that need something old fashioned yet modern.  I love the three ring pearl necklaces and although they are not for everyone, if you are someone who liked classic looks with modern twists then these three ring pearl wedding necklaces are perfect for you.  I love these necklaces and love that you can create your own story as to what the rings mean and why you are wearing them.  If you don’t like this one then click the link above or the image to the left and go to Waxing Poetic where you can see their full line of three ring pearl wedding necklaces.  I absolutely love their website and their jewelry.

Heart Shapen Chocolates Heart Shaped Chocolate Favors

Filed under: food,wedding favor,Winter Weddings — Tags: , , — rollerbladerdc @ 12:20 am

Ok, it is almost Valentines Day and that also means all of the Valentine’s Day Wedding Favors and heart shaped everything. Now although doing a Valentine’s Wedding is sweet but also kind of overdone, and can ruin a Valentine’s Day if for some reason you ever split up, one thing I do love is that when I think of Valentine’s Day I think of Chocolate.

Not only do I think of Chocolate, but I also think of Hearts and a perfect reason to be able to break your diet with a ton of really bad food like Dips, Spreads, Carbs and everything else you aren’t supposed to eat when you are on a diet.  What better day to break the Diet rules to either celebrate with the one you love or Celebrate being Single and eat tons of fatty foods and Garlic.  What better reason to also celebrate your wedding and let everyone else who wants to eat tons of bad food break their diets and celebrate with you by eating tons of fatty foods and carbs.

Anyways, with Valentine’s Day and Weddings both giving you the perfect reason to eat chocolate and be tacky with hearts, I wanted to share a few different heart shaped chocolate wedding favors and heart shaped chocolate candies.

Pack of 120 Creamy Milk Chocolate Hearts
These creamy milk chocolate hearts wrapped in silver and red foil make great favors when you present them in an organza pouch, cello bag or favor box. The choclates are made by Astor Chocolate which has been producing delicious, premium Belgium chocolate for more than 50 years.

Things to remember when planning a winter wedding.

Filed under: Winter Weddings — Tags: , , — rollerbladerdc @ 2:00 am

Winter weddings are my favorite weddings to not only plan and attend, but also to help people pick out favors and gifts for.  I love winter weddings because you not only get to wear layers of clothing, but the bride or even groom if he is wearing a gown gets to wear layers like a jacket over a wrap over a gown, a stool, and a ton of other things that summer and spring and even some fall brides don’t get to wear.  They can show up with a hat that does not mess up their hair and they can also get away with larger crystal and diamond earrings and bracelets.  Something just screams class with winter weddings and it is one of the only wedding seasons where white tuxedos and white diamond jewelry everywhere and crystals on your gown just work because they match the ice outside.  However, you have to also remember a few things when planning your winter wedding that most summer and spring brides don’t have to think or worry about.

1.  Pick somewhere without a lot of stairs for older people.  It is hard enough for them to walk up and down stairs in the summer, but when the steps ice over and become hard even for people who can walk without an issue, the ice can become deadly for the elderly.

2.  If you can find somewhere close to the airport or centrally located without a ton of side roads, take it.  You never know when a snow storm is going to hit and if you don’t stay near main roads or by a large and decent hotel, your guests may not be able to make it and you all might get trapped at your wedding reception since side roads are usually the last to get plowed.

3.  Bring a change of socks and boots to wear if you have to leave the building to get to your wedding reception and even for your way in and out if your wedding is in the same building as the reception.  You don’t want to mess up your dress or your tuxedo and noone likes wet feet, especially if you have to stand at the altar to get married.

4.  Although crystals and diamonds look amazing for winter weddings, don’t get carried away.  You might look gorgeous with them and they will look amazing, but there is a difference between a bride and a drag queen or beauty queen.  Try to not over do it with the rhinestones, crystals and diamonds with your outfit and your jewelry.

5.  Make sure that if the Groom or the Bride are wearing a white tuxedo to match the snow that your wedding party wears a different color.  You don’t want too much white and you want to make sure that you and your partner stand out so make sure that your wedding party wears a different and solid color.  I usually like to put the bridesmaids in one of the other wedding colors and the groomsmen in the other.  It is a great way to separate and make the wedding look even better.

6.  Wear something warm and bring something even warmer because you never know if your going to have to be in a cold room while you wait for the wedding to start or have to stand in the cold while you great and say hi to your guests.  Bring a jacket or something warm to make sure you stay warm and don’t get sick at your wedding.

I love winter weddings and think they are probably the most beautiful.  Just remember to plan ahead for snow and ice and make sure to take care of your guests.

So what makes a wedding invitation work for a winter wedding or what makes a winter wedding invitation right for winter.  Its really actually pretty easy.  If it makes you think of winter then it is a winter wedding invitation.  There are some things that do seem to work more than other things to make the invitations perfect for winter weddings.
The first thing that makes your wedding invitations perfect for winter weddings is the colors of them.  You have to think about what colors are cold or what colors make you think winter.  For me it is blues and whites.  I also think that having silver accents on the wedding invitations or for the inside of your wedding invitation envelope completely help to make the wedding invitation have more of a winter feeling to them.  The blue, white and silver wedding inviation theme completely screams winter wedding and if you use those colors and them tie them into your wedding theme or wedding colors, you will completely be able to do a gorgeous winter wedding where the colors and the look and feel from the invitation to your wedding decorations scream winter and can be absolutely gorgeous.  For me, blue, white and silver are the winter wedding colors, green is too much like spring and summer and so are pink, yellow, and pretty much everything else.  Stick with these and you will be completely set.  You can still keep some other colors in your wedding and wedding theme, but for the invitations, make sure your main color and the decoration stick with cool colors and say that they are for a winter wedding.
The next thing is to remember that even if you want something green or trees and flowers, if you live in the north or north east or anywhere that there is snow on the ground.  Your wedding invitations won’t really make sense since there won’t be any trees or any green around.  However, you can use things like snowflakes, silver accents and a ton of other winter themed colors and designs for your wedding that summer and spring weddings don’t get to use.
I love winter weddings and love the invitations for them.  You get to use colors that most other people don’t get to use and because of the different gowns and outfits and colors, you also get a heck of a lot more design choices and layers to wear.  You can start with a coat to walk into the wedding hall or where you are going to get married, then have an extra cover or wrap to wear over your shoulders and then go to a strapless or even full topped wedding gown after you have the temperature adjusted to make it so you will feel comfortable in your dress.   Guys have to still wear a suit or a tux so regardless they would feel either warm or cool but the women gets a lot more choices with her winter wedding and winter wedding outfits.  Anyways, you need to make sure that your winter wedding starts off correctly with your wedding invitations being winter colors and the perfect way to do it is to start it off with blue, white and silver wedding invitations.

Heart Shaped Wedding Favors Sale, Valentines Day Wedding Favors Ideas

Filed under: wedding favor,Winter Weddings — Tags: , , , , , , — rollerbladerdc @ 11:56 pm

I can’t believe it is already just about winter and thanksgiving and all of the winter holidays.  And with winter comes cold air, winter coats, nights indoors with a fire or tv and a blanket, and although the cold air can stink, the one thing I love most about winter is the Winter Weddings.

Everything is silver, you can bring in ice colors and cold colors, you can use things that shine and everything seems to be more magical like a winter wonderland and you also have valentines weddings, christmas weddings, hanukah weddings, new years weddings and things that scream shiney, glittery, hearts and love and even silver and cold themed favors and gifts like snowflakes and ice. However, the one thing I love most about winter weddings and Valentines weddings is the favors that you can choose, use and give out and because a lot of them are out of season, you can actually get winter wedding and valentines wedding favors on sale or at a discount since they are technically not on season since most weddings are in the spring and summer when the weather is warmer and people can get married outside, so I actually prefer the winter weddings and valentines weddings because you can not only choose more heart shaped wedding favors, but you can also use warm themes, wine wedding favors and heart shaped wine stoppers and warm themed wedding favors are all also perfect for winter and valentines weddings.  Anyways, if you are lost on what I am talking about with winter wedding favors and valentines wedding favors being warm and heart shaped, I made it easier for you to find them and find them on sale because I went to one of my favorite online wedding shops and picked out a bunch of winter and valentines day wedding favors for you and heart shaped wedding favors which might be on sale since it is the off season to show you what I mean and what I love for winter weddings and heart shaped valentines wedding favors.
