Ana de Roux Invitations

I came across Ana de Roux's work on WeddingWire (another great source for brides) recently and I had to share with everyone! She makes costume invitations for all occasions. For example the one shown with vibrant colors and beautiful designs. I absolutely love it especially for the valley....palm trees all around! ;)

The best thing is that she is right here in the Rio Grand Valley....yay! Check out her web page for more chic ideas and make an appointment with her to begin designing your own wedding invitations!

Shoes, Shoes and more Shoes!

Brides these days are choosing to show off some of their personality through their shoe choice. Whether you are wanting to keep it a bit more traditional or jazz it up a bit, here are a couple of fun ideas....one may just fit your quirky needs! Cinderella's traditional glass slipper is not on the top of these modern day brides' minds.

Real Weddings

Hey take a look at the survey conducted by The Knot. Here is a portion of it.....click here to take a look at the entire article by Business Wire.

2009 WEDDING BUDGET SURVEY RESULTS

In 2009, $28,385 was the average wedding budget in the US (not including the honeymoon) reflecting less than a 5% decrease from 2008.

“As the economy continues to affect consumer spending, brides remain committed to planning a memorable event and are thoughtfully cutting back,” said Carley Roney, editor in chief of The Knot Inc. “Approximately one third of brides who had a wedding in 2009 said that the economy had impacted their overall wedding plans.”

Leticia Arriaga Event Coordinator can help you setup a budget (and stick to it!) for your upcoming wedding!

Special Flowers

The Guerra ladies are a fabulous duo and owners of Special Flowers in McAllen, Texas. They are such hard workers and always go above and beyond to make any bride's dreams come true. They work together with the bride to design floral arrangements that perfectly fit the style of every bride. Their work is elegant, creative, and unique!
This wedding cake was designed by Cynthia's Cakes and the base of flowers was created by Special Flowers. This is one of my absolute favorite cakes ever! Photo taken by Anahi Photography.
