My favorite Passport Destination Wedding Invitations

Ladies (and the few gentlemen who read my blog), I think these are my favorite invitations to date! Hundreds have crossed my desk in the past 12 years of being a Destination Wedding Travel Consultant, but these are so neat. This paper artist has taken the idea to a whole new level...

I love the chic design and bright colors. Don't you?

Impossibly cute! 

Order your very own over at the Inviting Design Studio.

Shop Pearl River for Wedding Goodies!

Pearl River is a huge warehouse style store in NYC thta specializes in all things from Asia, many of which would be the perfect accent for your island wedding. The massive store is a destination worth visiting on your next trip to New York but you may shop online right now! 

I especially love the paper lanterns:

And pretty paper products:

The Anniversary Box

The Anniversary Box is a unique and special gift...

The Anniversary Box is a keepsake with cards and envelopes marked with anniversary years one through 50. At special events leading up to the wedding, such as a shower, rehearsal dinner, or reception, loved ones could be asked to write their best advice, best wishes or other special messages to the couple. Then all of the sealed envelopes are placed into the box and given to the newlyweds. On each anniversary the couple opens the corresponding envelope, and shares in their special day once again. 

Cheers,

Origami Balloon Lanterns

Oh so pretty! 

 

Perfect little addition to add to the festivities of a Destination Wedding! Sweet little origami balloon lanterns first spotted here, on {frolic}.

Folded flat, these would travel well... don't you think?

Destination Wedding Invitations from Invitation Consultants

A neat idea...

Take a peak at these nifty destination wedding invitations that can be customized beyond the wording. The bottom layer of the invitations can be changed to nearly any color, while the top layer is felt paper. Also, the destination of the wedding will be indicated on the map! 

Visit Invitation Consultants website to see more of their fun & sophisticated styles. Below are a few of my favorites...

Meet the dreamy new wedding supplies from B H L D N

Not only have they jumped full force into the wedding dress arena, but BHLDN, the Anthropologie party inspired spin-off, now has a store full of pretty party supplies. What I love most, is that the majority of items offered are light weight enough to be a realistic addition for a Destination Wedding. The neutral colors would add just enough style to your event without taking away from the eye-poping blues and greens found naturally in the tropics:

Imagine how amazing these would look spinning in the sea breeze?

These crinkle fans would serve a dual purpose of fending off the tropical heat but also being a stylish photo prop:

A Tides Zihautanejo Wedding via Martha Stewart
