Friday, September 11th, 2009

When looking for venues, you visit a large variety of places, but I would bet a prison is not on your list.  This location is not only for the brave of heart but for those couples who want to intrigue their guests offering them a little bit of different scenery!  Allebach Photography goes to places where most weddings don’t venture…historic prisons for their weddings.  Check out their website and this recent article highlighting these couples who are breaking away from the norm.

Fall is quickly approaching and my excitement heightens at the striking shades of orange that will start appearing in the weddings.  Orange combined with bright greens, reds, and browns makes for a lovely fall wedding!  Check out these uniquely orange bouquets for inspiration.

Fabulous Twitter Find :: Shell Artistree

Wednesday, September 9th, 2009

Michelle “Shell” Rummel is constantly adding new contemporary designs to her collection of modern artwork. Her company, Shell Artistree, is women-owned and full of creativity!  She started with a passion for painting and had great success through her gallery shows.   She considers herself lucky to be able to specialize in a Judaic art niche market where she can create Ketubot (Jewish wedding certificates) for Jewish, Interfaith, Gay/Lesbian, non-denominational and multicultural clients. She is seeing an exciting trend in the industry, that this traditional ritual is being accepted in a new way by couples of all faiths and backgrounds! The designs you will find in her store are unlike any other!

I love to hear about companies that leave their green print.  Their partnership with the Arbor Day Foundation, allows them to plant a tree with every Ketubah and invitation order they receive through their studio.  Not only are they designing unique paper creations, but they are replenishing the earth!

Her  newest line is one of my favorites! Check out their collection of beautiful jewelry that is perfect for brides, mothers and bridesmaids too! These are all uniquely designed and customized to you and your wedding.
