We Wish You a Merry Christmas!

All of us at mywedding would like to wish you a very Merry Christmas, full of freshly-baked goodies, crackling fires, and plenty of warm moments with the ones you love. 

May all the joys of the season be yours now and throughout the New Year!

(We’ll see you again next Tuesday!)

Enter to Win a Chance to Have Brendan James Sing at Your Wedding!

O.M.G. How much would you love to be serenaded, at your wedding nonetheless, by a very romantic singer/songwriter who happens to have spent time in the Top 10 on Billboard’s Heatseekers chart and has had songs featured on television shows like Private Practice, Bones, So You Think You Can Dance, and Army Wives? That’s what I thought.

Well, now is your chance. Mywedding has partnered up with Decca Records and Brendan James to give one lucky couple the ultimate wedding singer experience. All you have to do is submit a video that expresses your love using one of his songs (think proposal, save-the-date, slideshow for your wedding). Five finalists will be selected…

Have Yourself a Very Merry Christmas!

May you have a very Merry Christmas, filled with folks you love, just baked Christmas cookies and lots of warm wishes from the Jolly Man himself.

Next week will be a bit lighter posting schedule than normal as we spend time with friends and family and get ready for the most magical season of all – Engagement Season!

Happy Thanksgiving!

May your Turkey Day be filled with love, laughter and perhaps an engagement or two?

We’re going to take the next couple of days off to count our blessings: fabulous guest bloggers, small businesses that constantly amaze us with their creativity, and the best darn readers out there.  Just to name a few.

We’ll be back blogging on Monday – until then, can somebody please pass the gravy?

I can’t believe I’m about to say this but isn’t this the prettiest pig you’ve ever seen? When I saw these pigs at Renegade Craft Fair, my immediate thought was, “What a guest book!” Instead of putting out the usual book and asking guests to sign it, wouldn’t it be so fun to have friends and family leave you advice or share their dreams for the two of you? Or even leave you a Polaroid snapshot of themselves at your wedding? Then in a year, or ten (depending on how patient you are) you can crack open the piggie and get a little taste of your wedding all over again.

And these are definitely a keepsake made with love. Jessica from…

The most dangerous part of my job is not the over-caffeination you’d expect from someone who spends her days in coffee shops. Nor is it the tight neck muscles from hunching over my computer, crafting the perfect blog post. No, what makes my job so hazardous is that I spend all day, every day, looking at ridiculously awesome things. Which invariably leads to justifying why I can’t live one more moment with said awesomeness. And…well, you can imagine where this is leading. Like I said, dangerous.
