Happiest of Fridays, my friends, my pals! We hope you’re doing well, and are excited for your weekends, since they’re like five seconds away which is AWESOME. We’re almost back home from our little vacay, which means things are about to return to bidniz as usual, but we gotta say, we seriously couldn’t be happier [...]
This giveaway is now closed. Prepare to have your pants crapped, Cinco-de-Mayo-style. … Little side thingie though before we get started: Honey and I were wondering something recently, and I’d like your thoughts on the matter regardless of whether or not you’re entering today’s giveaway… After their ceremony, when Prince William and Princess Catherine retreated [...]
Why hello there, friendlies! It’s a bit of a dreary Monday here, so I hope it’s brighter where you are. And if it is, please do send over some sunshine vibes, if you would. Thanksies :) This past weekend we had our good friend’s birthday party, and Easter happened. Both super fun happenings, to say [...]
First, here’s a little note from Alison: Happy Friday, friendlies! I’ll be out at an industry brunch this mafternoon (see what I did there? I combined morning and afternoon to make… ohh forget it), but I’ll be back here to play with you guys again in a few shakes. Of course, all of that really [...]
Morning, everyone! There are quite a few things I’m loving today (as per usual), but there are two – even possibly three – extra special things at the tippy top of my list at the moment. One of them you might be able to guess…
Had an extensive conversation on Twitter last night (yeah I’m cool) about font families. The conversation attracted so many that I’ve decided to start a regular column on favorite fonts… might be “of the week” or “of the month,” but will most likely be “when the mood hits me.”
If you’re about to release your RSVP cards into the wild, drop what you’re doing! Before you make another move, think about this: what are you going to do if you get a few unidentifiable replies? Well, here’s a quick and easy solution that’ll put your mind at ease. You’ve undoubtedly put a lot of [...]
Hey everybody! Happy Tuesday! How were your holiday weekends? Ironically, mine was full of labor, with only a few breaks.
Happy Monday, everyone! How were your weekends? Fruitful, I hope. We actually went horseback riding (I wrote that with my lower jaw jutting out, and in a very entitled way… don’t hate me). It was a delight. Except for the extreme pain my tush is experiencing at this very moment. It hurts to sit. So [...]
“Vintage Postcard’’ Invitations, $750 for 100 by Golden Rectangle Press. I started obsessing over wedding stationery suites this past weekend. This happens a lot. Thing is, I have this ongoing love affair with them; I get really excited about a few different suites, try to decide between them – the color combos, the font(s), the wording [...]
There’s been a lot of news around these parts as of late. Here’s some more… I am pleased to announce that The Knotty Bride is now welcoming sponsors and other forms of advertising on the blog! TKB has grown by leaps and bounds since its relatively recent inception in October of 2009, thanks to brides, [...]
WEDDING INVITATION LOVE | hello! lucky | A Great Way to Make Sure Your Guests Know Where They’re Going…
Really digging these wedding invitations from Hello!Lucky featuring the San Francisco Skyline.

I’m telling you, this is precisely the stuff that rocks my [...]
{ For purchase by Yellow Owl Workshop, here. } By the way, they make things like ceramic cameras, too. They call them “ghost cameras.” (I love these people.) Don’t forget postcards. All available at Yellow Owl Workshop.
When it comes to your wedding invitations, do you get excited when you think about choosing just the right stamp to complement the suite? If you said yes, then we’re probably quite alike, because I LOVE THIS PART. It’s SO meaningless – I mean, SO – but, for some reason, it’s super important to me [...]
Let me preface this post by assuring you that your Vera Wang fix is on its way. However, I felt compelled to bring you a lil freebie love before we get into it… hope you like! Something about these playful prints from Haley Dolan of Bread of Many makes me want to have a party [...]
No, I Love YOU Much.
Have you ever felt like you’ve found your long lost twin – a separated at birth, or maybe from-another-mother kinda deal – just upon reading a couple of posts on a blog that’s new to you? It’s a funny feeling, a new level of awesomeness, because it’s like finding an old friend without ever having [...]
I left a teaser in my first post of the day… sorry about that, but it wasn’t to mess with you! I just couldn’t keep adding more goodness to it, when the goodness I wanted to add deserved its OWN feature! You understand, right? Hopefully I’ll be able to make amends with all that follows… [...]

They’ve brought us one of the most beautiful wedding paper templates I’ve eva seen. Eva. It’s beautiful, [...]
Want to know what’s been really tough for me to do? Pick just ONE color palette for my wedding. That’s one of the most difficult decisions I’ve faced while planning my affair and it’s not getting any easier the more inspiration I find. And guess what? It’s a challenging thing to plan a wedding when [...]
Dear Martha Stewart Weddings, Your magazines are among the only ones I keep, for years past the date printed on the cover. Why? Because the ideas that line the glossy pages of each and every issue you make are the kind that will never go out of style. And these ideas right here – which [...]
. LOVE TYPOGRAPHY. Now, I know I say “I love” about a lot of things – but with Typography, I mean it. *** If Typography had been a character on Saved by the Bell, it would have been Zack Morris (I realize it would make more sense as Jessie Spano, but… c’mon). And, if asked [...]
I thought I liked my butt until I saw yours, Miss. I hope you don’t mind me staring a bit. I don’t think you do, since you’ve made it the photographic focal point. So I’m going to keep my eyes fixed, as well as send a little shout out to Chris Nicholls for gifting the [...]
