Sponsored Post: Barware Bridal Shower from Bottlenotes!

Tired of attending the same-old bridal or baby showers…where you sit around, drinking tea, eating crumpets, and watch someone open gifts? So were we. So we came up with the concept of a “barware bridal shower,” where you attend a shower where the bride (or happy couple) receives gifts related to their bar or starter wine cellar- such as gifts from their Bottlenotes Wine Registry- and where guests get to enjoy a wine and cheese tasting. Cheers!

10 Easy Steps Describing How to Host a Barware Bridal Shower

1. 10-12 weeks in advance: Decide on a date for the shower.
2. 8-10 weeks in advance: Make sure the happy couple has registered for ample “barware” items for the shower (wine, stemware, decanter, wine accessories, tumblers, martini glasses and shakers, margarita glasses & pitcher, etc.) as well as a lavish starter wine cellar at

Sponsored Post: Send Out Your Invitations in a Bottle

Thanks in part to stories of treasure maps and movies starring Kevin Costner, messages in bottles are steeped in association with romance and intrigue. Why not excite your guests by sending your invitation in a special bottle? Invitation in a Bottle offers couples a wide variety of invitation styles and options. For example, the invitations are available in over 20 themes, but you can also work with their team of designers to create a personalized version.

The bottles the invitations arrive in come in different designs, ranging from “tropical resort” to a confetti-filled “Margaritaville.” If you want to save money (or just want the joy of assembling them yourself) you can purchase kits instead of the finished products.

I think my favorite thing about this company is their crazy-low minimum order requirement (10 invites). For those of you planning a destination…

Sponsored Post: Consider a Unique Wine Registry with Bottlenotes

Today’s weddings are a collage of individual styles, backgrounds, and unions. The traditional rules and expectations for weddings are no longer so strict. The same is true for wedding registries. A registry once meant a bride dragging a groom to a department store or small town gift shop to choose china and flatware patterns, and to pick all the kitchenware, glassware and serving pieces to start a home.

But today, many couples are getting married later or have already lived together, so they have accumulated many of the household items. So couples are now getting more creative with their registries, focusing not only on collecting things for posterity but also for things that will educate them, entertain them and build a hobby together.

One of the most exciting new types of registries is the wine registry. The Bottlenotes Wine Registry, powered by the country’s top wine shop,…

Sponsored Post: Enjoy the Benefits of a Bloomingdale’s Registry

When it comes to gifts, I am the perfect friend. I never, ever shop off-registry because of my respect for The List. That registry list is the result of countless hours of decisions like pouring over different shades of griege (yep, that’s a word) linens to decide which coordinates best with their dining room table. Often a fascinating peek into your friends’ style and personality, registry lists are an invaluable resource for wedding guests.

So, as you prepare your registry, remember to keep it interesting for your guests. With a Bloomingdale’s registry you can choose from a selection of both trendy and classic products, while experiencing terrific customer service. Bloomingdale’s offers engaged couples great perks throughout all departments, your own personal registry consultant, and an excellent completion incentive. If you like, you can be invited to exclusive Bloomingdale’s events to get more information on the latest products they are…
