What are you going to do with your cherished cake topper after the wedding?    In an earlier post, we provided suggestions for displaying monogram cake toppers but here's a way to display figurine-type toppers.    This attractive display stand will accommodate your cake topper and has a frame for your favorite wedding photo.    You can even add a personalized message to create a keepsake that you'll treasure for years to come.

Winter Wedding Theme in Aqua and Red

As you can see from the previous day's post, I can't seem to get enough of winter weddings and Tiffany blue.   That being said, here's another inspiration board that features the two.

For a colorful winter wedding theme, combine Tiffany blue with red - the traditional Christmas color.  Although Tiffany blue and red are classic colors separately, together they create a modern, elegant color palette.

Groom Dreading Tuxedo Rental Fitting? Put Him in the Trunk

Is your hubby-to-be dreading being fitted for his tuxedo rental?   Get him to join the Trunk Club.   The Trunk Club will let your honey order and try on clothing in the comfort of his own home (and avoid the mall and pushy sales staff).   He'll get to work with a stylist via a webcam (they'll send him one if he doesn't have one), try on clothes and only keep what he likes.
