Honeymoon Hotspot: A Royal Indian Palace 07/31/2011
 The marble constructed Taj Lake Palace is a pure vision of beauty floating in the middle of Lake Pichola. This remarkable Indian palace was built under the direction of Prince Maharana Jagat Singh II in 1743. Historically known as the prince’s “pleasure palace”, the Taj Lake Palace has since then turned into one of the most romantic hotels in the world. Your journey starts with a private boat escorting you to the floating palace where you will receive a royal welcome with rose petals, refreshments, and your own private butler. Live like royalty in your choice of luxurious rooms and suites that each tells their own story with unique mosaics, artifacts, embellishments, and ornate furniture. Butler service, bath setup, fruit platters, and goodnight chocolates are just some of the lavish in-room amenities that you will enjoy during your stay. The Taj Lake Palace offers an unlimited variety of experiences catered to you during your stay. Whether you are in the mood for a cultural show, astrological reading, sunset cruise, or a private dinner on the terrace overlooking the lake, your Royal Butler will ensure that all of your needs are met and expectations exceeded during your stay at Taj Lake Palace.

While I was researching escort cards for a client’s themed wedding, I came across some very unique ideas that I just have to share with you.  Wine corks – what a fun way to show your affinity for wine! Champagne corks work just as well standing straight up with a slit over the top to hold the card.  Compass escort card holders – what a fun way to “guide” your guests to their tables!  Etsy shop BearWitness117 offers these tree stump escort card holders. While the photo gives off more of a winter vibe, they can certainly be used for outdoor rustic or garden weddings.  Fun sand dollar escort card holders infused in sand and surrounded by seashells for the complete beach wedding look!  I have seen stones used more often in weddings lately. But, I really love the idea of putting them in a moss filled bucket for a rustic garden look.  I absolutely love these vintage key escort card holders. Varying sizes and decorative details like lace and clothespins really pull of the vintage/rustic concept. /rustic concept. Burlesque Wedding Inspirations 07/25/2011

 A horse drawn carriage is a wonderful way to enhance the memories of your wedding day.

 Create an unforgettable memory of your wedding day with the beauty of a butterfly release. With many ceremony sites prohibiting the use of throws like rose petals and birdseed, the butterfly release is an elegant no-mess alternative that will certainly have your guests in awe! There are several options when choosing your butterfly release method. House the butterflies in a beautifully decorated cage and have it opened in front of the bride and groom just after they are pronounced man and wife. Or, surprise your guests by covering the butterflies in an attractive box before the big release. You can also involve your guests by giving each of them an engraved envelope with a butterfly inside, which they will release upon instruction. Here are two websites to consider when placing your butterfly order: www.berkshirebutterflies.com www.butterflyreleasecompany.com Before you place your order, make sure that you read the website’s FAQ section regarding required butterfly release timing and temperatures.
