Wedding Tips and Ideas for Wedding Favors, Wedding Planning, Bridesmaid Gifts, Wedding Accessories and more!

Looking back at our wedding from over two years ago, I am still amazed by the amount of wedding planning that cohesively finally came together to amount in our joyous wedding day. Although it sounds like quite the production, so many diverse elements must come together in order to “produce” a wedding. For example, when building a house, elements like architecture, contractor, electricity, and plumbing, are all required for a house to become whole. Likewise, for a wedding to become whole, it is essential for some brides and grooms to have wedding invitations, wedding calligrapher, a specific wedding location, wedding planner/director, wedding jeweler, wedding cake, wedding dj or band, wedding photographer, wedding videographer, wedding transportation, and wedding favors/accessories/gifts. Thus, it is very enriching to have the creative wedding ideas and nuggets of wedding knowledge all come together at one central place. My Wedding Dream provides a collaborative arena of quality information that prepares brides and grooms with wedding “know-how” so that their blissful day is prepared with unequivocal detail. Moreover, by having a library of wedding knowledge by their very own guest bloggers, My Wedding Dream enables brides and grooms to have more confidence and comfort during the planning process.

Elegantly arranged, My Wedding Dream has modernized your online blogging experience by tailoring the information on their site to meet your needs. Furthermore, multiple blogs post everyday to give the viewer information on even the most pertinent details. From gorgeous bridal combs dripping in rhinestones, to wedding dresses delicately adorned with intricate lace detail, My Wedding Dream will offer the viewer the ability to imagine a dream wedding filled with the highest of expectations. By just providing an email, a bride and groom will also receive free information on all their wedding needs. More importantly, a bride or groom can utilize this website as a resource to efficiently organize their wedding plans, and feel like their wedding planning efforts were a success.

Hello Readers!

With digital technology taking the place of many forms of visual art that are tediously done by hand, I am always amazed and pleased to see the whimsical elegance found in calligraphy.  When calligraphy adorns wedding invitations, escort cards, ceremony programs and reception menus, I am always thankful for this personal touch of finesse that a bride and groom add to their wedding.  Recently, I was introduced to Mandi Heilig, owner of Dry Ink Designs, which specializes in design and calligraphy.  She describes her passion as the ”love of working with people to decide a style that works for their use, and then finally seeing their reaction to the finished product.”

So let us take a journey back to the origins of calligraphy. Wikipedia states that calligraphy “dates back to 600 B.C.,”and the evolution of this visual art form has truly created beautiful products through many years.  Therefore, the calligraphers that preserve this historic art form are able to personalize and tailor items to really meet a person(s) vision.   Mandi expressed how important the preservation of calligraphy is because the artform portrays a ”beautiful tradition that is slowly becoming a lost art.”  She also comments that calligraphy ”is a first glance into your special event and is something that I can do fairly easily, allowing me to create something people and excited to use.”

I was interested in how many people become interested in calligraphy and Mandi was so kind to share her journey below:

“I remember years ago, I was very young and was at one of our weekly Sunday Night dinners at my Grandma Grace’s house. She had a set of calligraphy pens, she was very artistic and creative. I had never seen pens like this and wondered how they worked. My dad got the pens out and just started “creating” letters in Old English Style. He showed me how to hold the pen and how to create the different lines to write out the letters. At that point I was young, but hooked and through the years kept working at it and eventually picked up my own techniques and styles.”

Therefore, for brides and grooms who are interested in incorporating a calligrapher and/or designer into their wedding stationary, don’t forget to visit www.dryinkdesigns.com!  Ultimately, your wedding stationary is yet another outlet to make a great first impression.
