Wonderful World of Weddings Recap

We had a great time at the Wonderful World of Weddings, an annual event that showcases Southeastern Wisconsin's best wedding vendors. Take a look below at some behind-the-scene photos from this years event!

The Booth

This year, we really wanted the gorgeous look and feel of our boutique to be reflected in our display. We took some antique accessories that are usually scattered around our store and paired them with a glitzy gold backdrop, which sparkled as brightly as our bridal belts!

The Fashion Show

We were honored to have our gowns featured in the big fashion show! The stage was beautiful and the models were incredibly entertaining (especially the kids!) Judging from all of the cheering in the crowd, everyone enjoyed the show!

The Vendors

Some of our favorite Milwauke vendors were present, too! From gorgeous displays to interactive photo booths, everyone who attended definitely brought their A-Game! 

We Can't Wait Until Next Year!

Wedding Theme: Black and White

There's always a certain risk involved in planning a wedding around a theme that may be too trendy and not relevant years from now when you want to reflect on your big day, but it's pretty safe to say that black and white will always be in style!

Choosing to go Black and White for your big day adds a level of glamour and formality to the event and provides your guests with the feeling that they're a part of a Hollywood style celebration. Take a look at some pictures we found on the web on how to make your Black and White wedding dreams a reality!

Intricate, formal invitations give a great preview for what guest should expect--like these found on Pinterest 

Photo found here--these were D.I.Y and only cost around $5.00!

Monochromatic centerpieces, found on Pinterest

White and Ivory flowers with black ribbon, has a great Vintage feel to it! Found here

Seeing some ideas you love? We think the best way to do a Black and White wedding is in the subtle details--even incorporating Ivory, Cream, Gold and other neutrals to help offset the stark difference can add that personal touch to your elegant affair! Don't be afraid to bring in pops of vivacious colors too and most of all have fun!

We hope no matter what theme or color palate you go with for your big day, your personal details shine through and it's everything you planned it out to be!
