Christmas is a-coming…
I know, I know, It’s 3 weeks away, but I can’t help but be excited!!! And for some reason this year, all I can think about is a Christmas wedding.
I’m thinking Christmas presents, which leads me to Etsy searching for unique handmade finds that my family and friends will love, or even a bit of inspiration for a home made gift! And while I’m there I can’t help but be tempted to have a little browse through my favourite crafters and creators.
For those of you that don’t know it, Etsy is a treasure trove of independent sellers who make anything and everything, with a firm emphasis on craftiness. For the Bride looking for a few little bits and pieces to stand out on the day and give her look some true originality Etsy is a must see.
With my obsession for all things Christmas, and to me Christmas means Red, I was completely taken with this gorgeous little Red Wrap from ModernRomance. I’m thinking Vintage glamour, Country chic, retro cool. So many ideas to share with you! I’m loving it so much, I may just have to knock up an inspirations board or two to show you how to weave a little red Modern Romance into your day.
For the Winter Bride still searching for a touch of whimsical glamour to complete her look, this would be the embodiment of perfection. And for around £50, I’ll admit it, I am a little bit in love. Imagine the winter outdoor shots with your new Husband wearing these daring scarlet ruffles about your shoulders, or how about trying it for your drinks or evening reception to give a completely different evening look? Either way, head on over to Modern Romance’s Etsy store and check out the other beautiful wraps, veils and headbands.
Meanwhile I challenge you reader, to find your own little slice of inspiration heaven to help create those stand out Newlywed portraits. Tell us about your unique and budget savvy finds to make your wedding truly yours.
Yours Truly,

I *love* it! – and I LOVE winter weddings! I get married days before Christmas next year – the red shrug is soooo *beautiful* and i would be so snapping one up, but my dress has long sleeves. Oh, and did I mention? it’s also very very red! x^-^x
Yay! Somebody loves it too!
Your dress sounds gorgeous StripeyCat! You must come and tell us all about it afterwards!
