Pocket Invitations

Pocket invitations are definitely a new trend in wedding stationary. They allow you to send all the necessary wedding-related materials in one chic envelope, including the invite, RSVP card, maps, and accommodation card. All these articles then come bundled together in a satin ribbon, paper sleeve, rhinestone incrusted pocket, or any number of fastener. And just like your wedding, these invitations can be customized to fit your style and budget. To get the best deal though, you will want to order wholesale. Here are a few great options of pocket invitations, as well as their suppliers:

Wedding Wednesday- Here's a little how to when it comes to turning your rustic vintage wedding into a more low key formal affair. Everything from adding chandeliers to doilies as an added touch. I loved the idea of mixing textures of burlap with the elegance of crystal and lace. Check out a few inspirations I loved this week!

Crystal Chandeliers add such an ambiance and glam

The idea of using roses to create a more formal look caught my eye on this sweetheart table

Simple DIY fabric roses are sure to make your seating cards more memorable

Use doilies tied with twine to spruce up your silverware

A twist on the mason jar candles by adding a touch of burlap with lace wrapped around the jar

Using lace doilies as table number are sure to add a romantic and glamourous touch to a vintage table

Love, love, love the idea of using the doilies themselves as place cards under clear plates or chargers!

Be sure to think outside the box when it comes to creating a rustic vintage look and you will be sure to turn what may have been a backyard wedding into a beautiful and glamourous affair. You and your guests will be sure to remember your special day with out you having to use paper plates and plasticware!

So most of you who know us, know that we have been spending the past few weeks getting ready for the Bridesclub Seattle Wedding Expo. We had such an amazing time this past weekend meeting Brides, Grooms & Vendors. We thought we would share the decor setup that we had for our booth at the expo. We decided to go with the trend of Mint green for 2013 and it paid off! So many who walked by just loved our booth! Take a look and maybe get some inspirations. Remember that if you need help with ideas for your upcoming event or wedding please be sure to contact us and we would be happy to help! info@essenceofevents.com

Taking over the event scene is the idea of a rustic theme but with a shabby chic feel. A good option for those of you who aren't to fond of the bright color trends for 2013. It's a good way to create a romantic and relaxing atmosphere with pink and beige tones. Check out some of the following ideas and let us know what you think!

Pink and white roses and peonies create a romantic feeling

The use of moss and the wooded structure around this beautiful cake add a unique touch
