Going to the Chapel (or at least shopping!)

As promised, here are some treasures I dug up online in celebration of wedded bliss. Shopping is blissful, too!

For the bride: Winifred Grace’s jewelry is incredible. I had a chance to meet the designer at a trunk show in Richmond last winter. She’s a delightful spirit, and obviously, a super-talented designer! I love the idea of this edgy, sophisticated jewelry on a bride.

Also slightly unconventional, how gorgeous are these garters? You really should click through to see all of Piper Ewan’s color combinations and other handmade treasures.

For the ceremony: These sweet ceramic ring dishes by Love Grows by Giving are the perfect modern take on the classic satin ring pillow.

For the couple: a few ideas for personal, unexpected wedding presents. Rae Dunn’s cake plate would be such a sweet thing to pull out on anniversaries, year after year. And the perfect reason to indulge in a slice of cake, though I don’t usually need a reason!

If you tend to stick to registries, consider combining a set of these custom napkin rings with table linens from the couple’s registry.

This handmade, organic wool pillow and coordinating blanket by Lorcom Lane Design are so luxurious in wedding white. What a nice way to feather the new nest.

For the girls: I have always liked the idea of an ornament to commemorate a relationship, a special event or a family tradition. I adore these feminine birds with their festive ribbon plumes by Pamela Angus.

A ring holder is something you never think about buying for yourself, yet everyone needs one! And that makes it the perfect gift, especially considering all the talk about rings when it comes to a wedding! These are from Red Envelope and there are others to choose from online.
