Sarah's "Sin City" Shower at Ulounge

This past weekend was jam packed full of fun events. Saturday started off with a truly beautiful wedding at the Fairmont Waterfront for an equally beautiful couple, Mandy and Rupert. Their signature martini was named the "Ruandy" which I totally loved!

After the wedding the hubby whisked me away to Whistler to spend the night at the Hilton and Sunday afternoon was full of spa treats to celebrate our one year wedding anniversary ( wow that year went by so fast!).

Monday came quick, and that evening I hosted a bridal shower for the lovely and beautiful Sarah at Ulounge in South Surrey. Sarah is a Vegas girl all the way, so what better theme for her shower than Sin City itself, and what better venue than Ulounge? Ulounge is about as Vegas as the Fraser Valley gets! The venue was perfect, the drinks and food were delish, and there was plenty of candy and cupcakes for the girlies to enjoy!

Colour Fabulousness! Real Wedding and Dessert Table

Is it bad that I'm craving M&M's for breakfast?

I started off my morning falling in love with Jade's incredible dessert table spread worthy of the legendary Amy Atlas. Jade was a DIY bee on Wedding Bee and has since started her own DIY website that you can drool over here. She really actually did this dessert table all DIY style, making the cupcakes, petit fours and cake pops (courtesy of another of my faves Bakerella) the DAY BEFORE her own wedding. A little crazy, but she pulled it off!

I absolutely love the vibrant colours, and although I'm usually a fan of the more muted colour combinations for weddings, I think that Jade definitely pulled it off and her wedding is a great example of how to "do colour" effectively. I still can't quite get over how gorgeous the petit fours are either. The detail and design varieties are amazing!

Introducing the new Mr. & Mrs.....Pink and Blue!

A "Tiffany" blue wedding theme is a classic, and pink, in all it's glorious shades, is perhaps the most popular wedding colour scheme of them all. What you won't see too often, however, is the two of them combined, which is why I am dedicating this post to the marriage of Pink & Blue. It's quite fitting for a wedding indeed because of the symbolic nature of the two colors (well, at least for weddings of the heterosexual kind!). But despite any symbolism here, the colour combo is just plain pretty! I definitely predict that you'll be seeing plenty more from this new "couple" in many weddings to come.
