New Twist on Old Traditions...



Be sure to get your copy of the latest issue of Contemporary Bride Magazine. Not only do they have some great planning tips, real wedding photos, and cost saving design ideas...but there's a super fun article about the old tradition of having "something blue" on your wedding day. Staff writer Meghan Chalfant asked me for my opinions on the subject and I was more than happy to contribute. I'm a true sucker when it comes to wedding traditions but I always love the opportunity to incorporate modern twists!





Happy reading!

Delta and Jorge - Elegance and Romance at the Westmount!

On Friday, Delta and Jorge tied the knot in true PBW style! After a ceremony in Westfield, everyone celebrated at the one and only Westmount Country Club (we always love working there...and with a recent remodel, we highly suggest you check it out!)
Delta and Jorge came to me well over a year ago and needed assistance putting together a dream wedding...one filled with glamour and bling in shades of romantic pink.The pictures below do not do this wedding any justice. The arrangements were so romantic! A combination of highs and lows, coupled with soft shades of linens in an elegant lamour fabric. I cant wait for the professional pics from http://www.jasminephoto.com/.


With help from Matt at Altas Floral Decorators, www.Infinityentertainmentdjs.com for lighting, www.Tablewraps.com for linens, www.Satinbow.net and http://www.elleette.com/ for stationery, Soundstogodjs.com on entertainment, http://www.idohairandmake-up.com/ on beauty, and Stephanie, Bobby and Karen from the Westmount (www.westmountcc.com), Delta and Jorge had the wedding of their dreams! We just love seeing a plan come together...but we hate saying goodbye to fabulous clients! Delta and Jorge...we're really going to miss working with you!



All of us at PBW wish the newlyweds years of love and happiness!!!!

Something Blue...

So sorry for the blogging hiatus...it's been one crazy week at PBW/Plush. So much to report...but we'll talk about all the big news later! For now, I wanted to mention that the new issue of Contemporary Bride is hitting newstands soon. There's a fun article inside about "Something Blue" on your wedding day and the modern interpretations of this very popular tradition. I was just tickled pink (or shall I say blue???) when they asked me to contribute to the article. I just saw the final product...and as expected... the article is informative and fabulous!!! Special thanks to Meghan and the team at Contemporary Bride magazine for allowing me to be part of their projects!
