Happily Ever After on Madison Avenue

>I might have to step up my husband hunt since J.Crew is set to open a special wedding boutique in my neighborhood! The atelier at 769 Madison Avenue at 66th Street will officially debut on May 27th. I just hope there isn't a wedding gown stampede like the one at Filene's Basement!

Letter Perfect

> My computer troubles have me longing for the days of pen and paper. I love technology and all but there is nothing like discovering a hand addressed letter in my mailbox to make my heart sing. I would probably be singing very loudly if I ever received an envelope hand addressed by Queen Quills Calligraphy. Some of the styles remind of something Jane Austen would have sent out in her day but yet they also look fresh and modern for today. They are beautiful works of art that are perfect for parties and weddings and even better for love letters! Just make sure you choose your recipient carefully! You definitely don't want to waste this prettiness on just anyone!

Flower Girls

>After you have Queen Quills Calligraphy address your wedding envelopes, you can hire the lovely ladies of Saipua to create all your flower arrangements. I found these photos of a wedding they designed this past weekend at The Bowery Hotel on Milk and Mode and couldn't help but want to also post them. They are beyond gorgeous! The illustrations on the menus, table numbers and programs are by Rifle Design. These resources are definitely going in my future wedding file. Now if anyone knows any eligible bachelors, send them my way!

A Blue and White Wedding

>
When I saw the photo of Minnie Mortimer's wedding reception in The New York Times, I thought the table looked beautiful.  I never found any more photos until last week when I was looking at Carolyne Roehm's website.  The rest of the details are just as lovely as I knew they would be and are definitely going in my wedding inspiration folder.  I also love that Minnie didn't wear a strapless dress.  They full announcement of her nuptials to director Stephen Gagan in the Vows section is worth the read.
