The simple little treasures

A week ago I had the pleasure of attending the 3rd annual tea + launch party of English Rose’s new boutique of wedding gifts and treasures..  Jo Galey is the mastermind behind the beautiful wedding florals and the vintage inspired wedding accessories. If you’re in the area, check out her shop at the Well Dressed Nest at 106 Annapolis St. in Annapolis, Maryland.

wedding garters and invitations oh my!

What do you get when you design your stationery around wedding garters. Well we did just that. To really see how we can truly custom design your wedding stationery we've designed the above invitation sets from inspiration of two of Julianne Smith Wedding Garters. If you are getting married check out her website. She has a wide array of garters and you can even custom them with your colors or embodier your name or wedding date. Its a great way to add that "something blue" to your wedding attire or just have as a memento after your wedding. Thanks Julianne for the inspiration!

Sweet. a bakery and cafe

I'd like to introduce Sweet. a bakery and cafe which is located in Ellicott City, Maryland. They have the most delicious cakes and some great designs to match any event theme. I can highly recommend them as they baked up a yummy cake for my birthday.

Gone are the days where a bride has a choice of a few wedding cake designs from a book and two flavors. Incorporating an overall design is popular with weddings today, and the cake is certainly part of it. That’s why at Sweet. a bakery & café, they learn all about your wedding, your colors, dress design, flowers and venue and incorporated that into your cake. They believe a cake should not only look great, but be delicious as well.

You will experience there high level of service throughout your experience with them. From the tasting to any follow up conversations, they will make sure your expectations are exceeded. In addition, there’s no need to save your "time tier" and eat a frozen cake on your first anniversary, we’ll provide a fresh one for you, at no additional charge. And their price levels are very inclusive.

Need a cake for your wedding, party or next event? I suggest checking out Sweet Bakery.
