My friend, and Gifts.com “Gift Guru” Julie, writes about “whats hot, whats hilarious, and whats next” in gift ideas for the blog Gift Rap. What a fun job! She recently got to find out from event planner extraordinaire Colin Cowie what his favorite wedding gifts are when you need to shop without a gift registry.

All About Junebug!
The other day I got tagged by the lovely Vane over at the Brooklyn Bride Blog to post eight facts or habits about myself, and then to pass it along to eight other bloggers. How fun! But since you all hear about what I love every other day, I thought I’d expand this little project so you could get to know more about the Junebug team. (I’m not the only one working over here!) So […]
Trophy Cupcakes
Cupcakes are cute, no doubt about it. Just looking at one makes my heart go pitter-pat. But the cupcakes from Trophy Cupcakes and Party are truly a cut above the rest! Not only are they ridiculously adorable, but they come in flavors like Triple Chocolate, Red Velvet, Lemon Strawberry, Snickerdoodle, Peanut Butter & Jelly, and Chai Cardomom. Yum! I recently tried a Hummingbird cupcake which was a heavenly coconut, pineapple and banana concoction with cream […]
Vintage Postcards from Card Cow
I love the idea of incorporating vintage postcards into your invitation design or wedding decor, or using them as save-the-dates or RSVP postcards. Choose ones that represent your wedding location, where you grew up, or where you’re headed on your honeymoon. This could be especially fun for destination weddings! Check out CardCow.com for a selection of thousands of vintage postcards from all over the world. I could get lost exploring their site for hours!
Orangette
Have you ever had the experience of reading someone’s writing, and loving it so much you feel like you know them, are cosmically connected to them and that they are your new best friend, they just don’t know it yet? Well my new best friend is Molly, author of the charming, thoughtful and perfectly quirky food blog Orangette. She writes about food, cooking and recipes with such affection, and blends her everyday experiences and emotions […]
The Palette Generator, My Favorite New Toy!
Reading around yesterday I came across this fantastic toy, I mean tool, from Big Huge Labs called the Palette Generator. (Thanks Brooklyn Bride and The Paper Pony!) You can upload any image from your computer and it will instantly “create a harmonious color palette” for you. What a great way to come up with a wedding color scheme! Try it out, and I guarantee you’ll be hooked, I sure was. Don’t ask me what in […]
Creative Save the Dates
After last week’s post about Kelly’s creative save-the-date, I received these fantastic responses from two Junebug readers and just had to share!Andrea and Trevor made their save the date postcard using a photo they took jumping off his Grandma’s dock at Hood Canal. “We took the photo at our engagement party with all our friends around us and it was a blast … even though I usually don’t like jumping in the water it was […]

Save the Date Brilliance

Junebug Weddings has been my best source for ideas and vendors. It’s been my experience that all of the professionals I’ve contracted with demonstrate amazing customer service, great business ethics and have incredible talent.” Hooray! Thanks Kelly! She also sent me a copy of her fantastic save the date […]
