Want in on a little known fact about me? I’m obsessed with lobster. I’m actually convinced it’s the world’s most delicious food. Oh, and I’m equally in love and obsessed with all things New England. So these amazing lobster bib save the dates? (Yes, lobster bib save the dates!) Well, they’re basically completely awesome in …
As a bit of a famed paper and stationery junkie, I’ve been a fan of Minted for a long time. In fact, I can’t tell you how many times I’ve referred clients and friends to check them out. And their newest wedding stationery designs? I’m not exaggerating a bit when I say that I absolutely …
You guys have probably heard me tell you how much I love the water and seaside inspired celebrations so many times you could recite it back to your grandkids someday. And I’ve also done my fair sharing of waxing poetic about gorgeous watercolor stationery on multiple occasions. That said, it’s probably pretty predictable that I’m …
This morning I am off to Salt Lake City by way of Chicago (where I’ll be catching up with Ami of Elizabeth Anne Designs for the rest of the flight west) for this year’s Altitude Design Summit. I am, in a word, crazy excited. I can’t wait to meet so many blogger friends I have …

The baked goods-loving cook/baker/foodie in me is loving these sweet recipe card save the dates from Chewing the Cud. I love great wedding stationery infused with personality and little details that reflect the couple so naturally these rank high on my list of favorites. Cute recipe cards bundled with a little package of cookies would …
I’ve been reading (and loving) the blog of Gus & Ruby Letterpress, appropriately named Paper Hounds, since before owners Samantha and Whitney had even opened shop. The gals behind Gus & Ruby are letterpress-obsessed and dog-loving, just like me, and even named their gorgeous Portsmouth, New Hampshire shop after their two doggies, Gus and Ruby. …
These darling little save the dates are for the wedding of Emilia Jane, one of my favorite bloggers out there. (I’ve loved reading about her wedding planning inspiration on her blog (un)Veiled Vows since before my own wedding.) Designed by Jaime of A Desert Fete, they feature pretty kraft paper envelopes and a little tiny envelope …
I remember this time last year as I scrambled to get our save the dates assembled and out the door in advance of our summer wedding and it dawned on me that many summer 2010 brides are likely finding themselves in that same position right about now. I love the idea of sending out a …
