Great Performances Makes Holiday Parties Easy

You'll have to click on the graphic below to see clearly, but Great Performances, a favorite caterer of ours, is making the holiday party season a little simpler with three great catering offerings: a drop-off, a 2 hour cocktail party or a holiday buffet. Their forte is seasonal, farm fresh foods that are beautifully presented and delicious. In this season of compressed time and smaller budgets, this is a gracious and easy solution to holiday entertaining.

Vivienne Westwood Gown and Sex & the City

Hot off the press! A couple of months ago we told you about a new bridal salon that we discovered and love. Gabriella New York has been chosen as the exclusive bridal salon in Manhattan to have the Vivienne Westwood "Carrie" dress worn by Sarah Jessica Parker in the Sex in the City movie.

The dress will be at the salon on two days only -- Thursday the 4th of December and Friday, December 5, 10am-6pm. You can try it on, and if you are feeling particularly sexy in the city, you can purchase it. Call the salon for an appointment at 212.206.1915 or email at info@gabriellanewyork.com.

Postage...

I know this has been talked about on this blog before, and every bride thinks about how much her invitations will cost and how much will they cost to mail.



But you never know until those bad boys are actually in your hands. Don't assume that just becasue they measure properly for a .42 stamp that they actually will weigh properly for a 1 ounce stamp.



Wait until you have them and then bring them to the post office, have them weigh and measure them - then you will know the proper postage amount. You may even want to bring two, just in case.

Christos at Amsale

For our romantic brides. Christos is designed by Amsale for the quintessential bride. Each dress is softly romantic yet refined enough for the most formal setting. From indulgent laces to the tiniest covered buttons, the traditional details are all in place. Yet every element, large or small, has been interpreted for today. I have a little personal bias on behalf of Christos as he designed my wedding dress!
The preview of the Fall 2009 Collection from Christos will be at an exclusive trunk show a the designer's flagship salon from November 28-30. Call 212.583.1700 for a reservation. As Amsale is quoted as saying "The Fall 2009 Collection for CHRISTOS is the embodiment of romance and soft femininity. Exquisite floral details and delicate laces create the feeling of a cherished heirloom while remaining unmistakably modern."

Name:: Ashley





Location:: Now we're living in Colorado but we're getting married right outside our hometown back in Pennsylvania.



Blog:: Lost in the Moment



Wedding Date:: July 25th, 2009



What do you do in real life?

Currently I am a full time student at Colorado State, majoring in Computer Science. I also work part time as a customer service rep for Bare Escentuals (mineral make up company).





Favorite Part about Planning your Wedding?

All of the DIY stuff! I have had such a blast making some of these projects with my bridesmaids and even my FI! I feel like they show just a little more of who we are too, because they're designed to represent us, not some template that can be found on the internet.



Least Favorite Part about Planning your Wedding?

Planning an out of state wedding. We only go home once a year, at Christmas time, and last Christmas we hadn't even started planning. In March I then had to go back home by myself to find a venue for the ceremony and reception as well as the photographer/dj. I feel like I'm missing out on the experiance of planning my wedding with my FI.



What is the best piece of wedding advice you've ever received?

In the end no one is going to care as much about your wedding as YOU do. I read a post on theknot about this and its been the best stress reliever when trying to make decisions. You just need to relax and continue on because your the only one thats going to notice if the napkins are a shade darker then the programs, or the ribbon on your Save the Dates is a little crinkled :) Don't worry about the little things, just remember the meaning of the day!

Minimergency Survival Kit

As small as a cupcake, this mini-kit has 16 emergency essentials that every girl can use. We've got several of these stashed in our desk, glove compartment, and handbags. I think it's a good thing to stuff in a stocking, too. Or nice for a little bridesmaid treat. And at $10, the price is mini too.

We love the discreet silver case.

Included are a miniaturized hairspray, clear nail polish, nail polish remover, emery board, lip balm, earring backs, clear elastics, sewing kit, double-sided tape, stain remover, deodorant towelette, pain reliever, tampon, breath freshener, dental floss and adhesive bandages. Available at the Wedding Library or by phone order: 212.327.0100.

Maui/Wowi Summer/Winter

Right now, Maui Wowi is offering a 20% off an espresso beverage event in December. They offer delicious espressos, cappuccinos, lattes, mochas and hot cocoas for social events. Ask for a quote, and once you are ready to book, just mention the discount code MAUI, tell them the Wedding Library sent you, and they'll take 20% off your invoice!
We love Maui Wowi for its creative ideas -- great for a summer wedding specialty cocktail station in the Hamptons.... They make fresh fruit smoothies, frozen cocktails, daiquiris, pina coladas and margaritas for weddings and events in metro New York, New Jersey and Connecticut locales.
As an after-dinner treat at a winter wedding, consider them at dessert time for cappucinos and cocoas... Buzz Bonus: Have your caterer provide the glasses and cups for a polished look.

Re-Touch Much?

Retouching. A sticky subject amongst photographers, it's just not something that most photo-journalistic photographers like to do. But, sometimes there's that perfect shot that could use a little help. We've all been there. Now there is a solution for the bride who wants a little "enhancement". Thomas Villarreal can make some realistic improvements, or can create photo illustrations as in the photo below.
The RetouchShoppe provides touch-ups of your favorite images and the web site shows remarkable before and after images. This amazing service should probably be used sparingly, but you can really create amazing, surreal images (if that's what you are looking for). Now you too can look like Madonna on the cover of Vanity Fair. Just don't re-touch too-much. Buzz: Prices start at $30 an image.

Cookie Time!

Every Friday through the end of the year I am going to post a cookie recipe that I bake every Christmas for you to enjoy! You already know my passion for baking, but I thought it would be fun to share some of my favorite recipes with you, and you can share them with your friends and families!



There is always alot of cookie sharing parties this time of year, along with hosting open houses, and family dinners. These recipes are sure to impress, and are pretty simple to make!



First, I have to start with a story. My husband's Grandmother {Mom-mom} always made these Italian Christmas Cookies called Dadals, and when she passed I was the only one with the recipe - she sent it to us while we were in college with a $20 bill. It was her way of helping us. I have held on to this recipe with my life! And every Christmas I am in charge of making these cookies.

INGREDIENTS





1/2 cup butter, softened

1/2 cup white sugar

3 eggs

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

3 cups all-purpose flour

3 teaspoons baking powder



Glaze:



2 cups powered sugar

1tsp Anise or Almond extract

1TBS Milk



DIRECTIONS



1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets. Or use Parchment Paper



2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth. Mix in the egg and vanilla. Combine the flour and baking powder; stir into the creamed mixture until blended. Divide dough into walnut sized portions. Roll each piece into a rope and then shape into a loop, or pretzel shape. Place cookies 2 inches apart on the prepared cookie sheets.



3. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until firm and golden at the edges



4. Allow cookies to cool on rack



5. Once cook dip tops of cookies into glaze and let dry



{You can scoop the cookies onto the Parchment with a very small cookie scoop or shape them as explained}

Dana Michele Trunk Show

I got a sneak peek at my friend Dana's beautiful new line of jewelry and jumped on the chance to have a trunk show with her collection. For some pieces she teamed with our friend Deb at Dyanne Belle and Simmons Jewelry (as in Kimora Lee) to create a collection that I'm sure will become an instant classic. So we've invited her over to show off the collection on Tuesday, December 9, from 12-8pm. Don't forget to rsvp to us at kristina@theweddinglibrary.com. Discounts will be offered on these great gifts for yourself or a favorite bridesmaid or hip mom. (Or bring the fiance along -- and give him a hint for the holidays).

Call us at 212.327.0100 for more information.

More on Amy F. from with the pixie grin... {she had our most hysterical post about "the girls"}



Cutting it out...





Hi there! It's been awhile, I know. Things are crazy..work, holidays..and other fun stuff...And of course with all that's going on, there is always a little wrench thrown in to keep it exciting..



So, I'll just cut right to it...My future MIL booked THE perfect spot for our rehearsal dinner. It's a fab little place I used to work at back in my serving days..actually, it's probably my most favorite workplace...ever. Not only were the people amazing to work with and for, but the food would literally melt in your mouth..I remember specifically the beeftataki , the salmon served with coconut rice, the pecan pie with the homemade molasses ice cream. sigh. I miss it y'all. For real. So...they have this gorgeous covered patio that is going to be perfect for what we thought was going to be around 30 people...



Ok, this is a problem. My future MIL says that we invite the bridal party, parents, and out of town guests. But..uh..that's over 60 people. I. am. not. kidding. So who gets the axe? And what if they are all catching up at the reception? I can just see it:



"Oh wasn't that dinner just wonderful last night?" (says Maw-maw from Florida)



"What dinner?" (Aunt So-and-so from somewhere across the Mississippi River)



"The rehearsal dinner, of course...didn't you go?" (Maw-Maw again)



"Oh. I wasn't invited." (poor Aunt So-and-so from across the Mississippi River)



Sigh. What do you think? There isn't enough room, let alone enough money to pay for 60 dinners. How do we decide? What would you do?



So ladies, what do you think, what would you do?

Top Knots Wedding Photography Contest

Every year an industry publication, Photo District News (PDN), presents a wedding photography contest. It's called Top Knots and is through the New School for Wedding Photography. There are almost always Wedding Library Photographer submissions, and many of them are former winners. The magazine puts the finalists' images on-line; they are worth a peek. Brides can also get contacts from their web site for potential photographers.
The photographs chosen are usually pretty edgy -- I love them all the more for it. I was a judge a few years ago; I am honored to be a judge again this year. Look for my posting of favorites for 2009 early in the new year. Buzz Bonus: For any of you hoping to enter, the deadline is December 1!
