Typically when I think of cake toppers, I think of the 1950’s bride and groom figurines. That or the tacky scene of the bride dragging her unwilling groom. But I love, love, love the customized toppers from Toppers with Glitz.
I recently stumbled upon a very yummy idea for favors: hand-dipped gourmet chocolate-covered pretzels from Fretzels by Jill. Choose from one, two, or three pretzels per pretty package. Give them 4-6 weeks notice and you can customize the packaging to fit your theme. They’ll even custom-color the chocolate!
Pricing isn’t listed on the site, so contact Fretzels for a quote.
If there’s one thing I slightly regret about my own pre-wedding festivities, it’s that I didn’t put much thought into my Rehearsal Dinner outfit. Though my official reasoning was that the frigid temperature made pants and a sweater far more practical than a cute dress, truthfully I was just too busy and too tired to go shopping at that point. So my advice is to start searching for your RD dress early. Here are some cute ideas to get you started.
Calvin Klein Scoop-Neck in Blush/Brown ($138 at Macy’s)
Though not a huge fan the older styles, I really like the new collection from Bari Jay Bridesmaids. It has varied silhouettes and necklines, lots flattering draping and gathering, and some interesting color choices. Bonus: Many of the styles are also available in maternity versions.
Style 765 in Navy/Gold
If you and/or your fiance love a good cup of coffee (or tea, or cocoa), a Keurig Brewing System is a registry must!
If you’re a DIY bride, you must check out the handy customized stamps and embossers from Three Designing Women.
