Our Wedding Pictures: Part 2

Et voila – the second half of the wedding (you can see part one here). We had custom cocktails, delicious food, hilarious speeches, and lots and lots and lots of dancing. There was a good mixture of Scottish and Serbian dancing, and of course, plenty of bouncing around to Miley and T-Swift (yes, he’s 32). I was a hot, sweaty mess at the end of the night, as I feel I should have been. I could not have dreamed up a better wedding for the two of us. I’m so happy to have these pictures and go through them time and time again. Love y’all – thanks for reading!

Baby Shower Invites + Decor

Often people pick a party theme, then search for the invitation. Stationery lovers may be inclined to reverse that process (i.e. I totally would). While babies aren’t on my brain personally, lots of Sasha’s friends either have kids or are ready to have them soon, so I’ve been on the lookout for good baby shower material. I found these gorgeous three shower invites on Minted, and decided to brainstorm decorations to complement the cards. BHLDN is the ultimate place for cake stands, vases, garlands, etc. Wedding planning is over, but party planning is ongoing!

Cupcake Decor

One of the first things that Sasha and I decided on was the fact we wouldn’t have a wedding cake, but would instead have vegan cupcakes. I haven’t eaten eggs in over 10 years, and so I avoid most desserts. We found the best vegan bakery in Oakland, Fat Bottom Bakery, that will be making all of the cupcakes for our wedding (see related post here). I’m meeting with Atheneum Creative today to review the invitation designs – I’m so stinking excited. I’m also going to ask them to help make signs for a variety of things at the wedding – the cupcake stand being one of them. I’ve compiled my five favorite options – how cute are those little individual signs? Have you seen any other creative displays before?
