A blogging good time...

Well, well, well it has been a while since I have blogged. However, I am happy to announce that is only because I am so overjoyed and inspired by my lovely bridal clients. I am sharing photos from a very sweet Bride whom I met earlier this year. Cindy and I met over coffee and she shared photos of her dress & samples of her fuschia accents that she would feature in her July wedding. It was a few weeks before her wedding she emailed me and wanted to honour her late father, by incorporating a photo of him on her bouquet. The locket fit the design of her feather Bouquet beautifully and I must say it was very heartwarming to see how happy she was when she picked up her Couture Bouquet, Ivory feather headband and fuschia hair clip for her reception. Mark also rocked the feather boutonniere & their whole day looked like a love-filled dream and I am overjoyed that my little handmade creations could be a part of their day!







From Cindy " Thank you so much for everything, the pieces all turned out perfect. I have told everyone who you are and what you do! I would recommend you to everyone and anyone. Thank you so much for being a part of our special day."









I love <3, so gorgeous.

No February Break over here!

A lot of people have been asking me about the weddings I have been working on and the colour/design trends that are popular this year.  I have to say that purple is big this year and Vintage is taking over the entire wedding industry.  From birdcage veils to lace gloves, Vintage is here to stay and I love to take a vintage or heirloom piece and re-create it into your design. 

I am proud that my designs are a small part of such a beautiful moment, so here is what I am working on:

My current TO DO list in order or priority (yes I love my job!) :
  • Bridal Bouquet, Bridal Party Bouquets & Boutonnieres for a winter wedding in Canmore, AB.
  • Bridal Hair Fascinator for a lovely English Bride (no it's not Kate!)
  • Bridal Accessories, boutonnieres & more for a dramatic masquerade wedding of a local journalist
  • Custom pieces for the Ice Princess Photoshoot
  • Royal Blue & Ivory designs for Vegas nuptials!
  • Olive Green & Robin's Egg blue Bouquets for an outdoor SK Wedding
  • Ivory & Crimson bouquets for a Stylist Bride in Ontario!
  • The High Tea centre pieces
  • Vintage inspired bouquets with pops of pink & full of glam!
And the list goes on...

I will update with pictures as the items are crossed off my list!!!

February Feathers!

My last entry was at the beginning of the new year and my resolution was to stay committed to blogging...well there goes that resolution now that is is February!  It's like those people who go to the gym in January out of guilt and then trail off the workouts until they don't exist (actually I am on of those people too!) 

So it's February and that means the wedding of a lovely Bride I met last fall is just around the corner!  Here is a Sneak Peak at Naomi & Ryan's custom designs!  I was very inspired by the beautiful memorial charms Naomi had made by Designs by Tami.  I searched for a Vintage-inspired necklace (I heart vintage) to re-work as a complement to  the charms.  I love how it turned out and she will have those tokens, along with her Bouquet as an everlasting memory of her big day!  Congrats!

Busy little Business!!!

I have been quite busy creating new designs for a photo shoot, filling 2010 wedding orders and building my little Business.  SightForStyle Designs is officially OPEN for business, and I could not be more excited!!

My favourite part of this job, is meeting with Brides and hearing about all of the details of their wedding!  I LOVE weddings and all of the craziness that goes with them.  SO looking forward to attending the Bridal show on January 16th with Megan Paur (owner) of www.paisleyparty&gift.com.

Here is a sneak peek of an upcoming winter Wedding!  Jenessa's Ring is a sapphire and she wanted to keep those tones througout the details of the wedding.  Enter: PEACOCK FEATHERS!!! Small touches of peacock throught the bridal party and centre pieces tie together this lovely intimate affair at Elk Ridge Resort.


Congrats Jennessa & Leigh...the countdown is on!!!
