Sharon and George ~ 10.22.11
 Sharon contacted Unmistakably You mid-summer, having realized that because she was planning her wedding from out of town, she wanted someone to help tie up the loose ends, and to make sure that her wedding day went smoothly. Genevieve took the lead on Sharon's day, as we had several weddings going on that weekend. The wedding and reception were beautiful thanks to Sharon's attention to detail and organization.

 In the past couple of years, non-floral bouquets have been gaining popularity among trendy brides. As a Planner, I love the opportunity these funky bouquets provide to incorporate aspects of my couples' personalities. For example: - musicians could include paper flowers made from sheet music
- people who sew could make pretty fabric blooms
- jewellery makers could hand-bead gorgeous flowers for a blingy bouquet
- heirloom brooches and pins can be used to incorporate the couples' heritage
- inspired chefs could create bouquets from herbs or berries

Becky and Joe ~ 07.09.11
 I was honoured to be asked to help Becky and her fiance Joe keep things running smoothly on their wedding day. With the help of her mom and sister, Becky had been working hard to make every aspect of her wedding special. She wanted someone there to make sure that each detail was executed according to her vision, and to keep the evening running smoothly. I was happy to help out!
Becky is a classic beauty, and had chosen a beautiful lace dress, to which she added a pop of colour with a navy sash and navy shoes with complimentary bling. |

Think about the last wedding you went to. This Planner is willing to bet that it followed the traditional "wedding-wait two hours-cocktails-dinner-dancing" format. If not, kudos to the couple for shaking things up a bit! You want your wedding to be unique, and to showcase your personality, correct? Why not stray from the usual format and offer your guests a different reception experience? The following ideas will not only provide an unexpected twist to the norm, but have the side benefit of being budget-friendly. |

 This Planner loves little twists on the ordinary, and if you're having a champagne toast during your wedding reception, why not make it a little more memorable by adding beautiful (and delicious!) hibiscus flowers to the bottom of the champagne flute? The flowers are completely edible (they taste a bit like strawberry-rhubarb), and are lovely as they open up from the bubbles in the champagne. You're not limited to champagne toasts, however. There are a multitude of other ways to use hibiscus blossoms. |

 You know it's wedding season when . . . this Planner apologies for the scarcity of blog posts lately! I'd like to congratulate all my couples, and thank them for letting me be part of their special day. So far, this Season has seen some lovely weddings, and there are more unmistakable days to come! I'd love to take credit for this fantastic idea, but I can't. Credit goes to my recent bride Kate, whose creativity shone through in her beautiful, fun wedding to groom Jason. |

Ever a fan of keeping things personal and unique, this Planner would like to introduce you to Prezi, a new, web-based presentation program. Prezi is sort of like a younger, hipper powerpoint, and has tons of wedding-related applications. Just some of the ways you could incorporate Prezi into your wedding planning and special day: - create an information Prezi for your bridesmaids/groomsmen and e-mail it to them
- create a wedding prezi to post on your wedding website
- create a "how we met" prezi to show at your stag and doe

 I don't know about you, but this Planner was glued to the television last Friday morning as the new Duke and Duchess of Cambridge tied the knot. The story of Wills and Kate is infinitely romantic, not to mention how beautiful they both are! Obviously, not everyone can have a wedding on the scale of the royals, but many of the details were so personal and well planned that they fit perfectly into the Unmistakably You wedding philosophy. Following are a few ways that you, too, can have a wedding fit for a royal. |

 We’ve all heard of the candy buffet, which is a fun, interactive way to both decorate your space and give your guests a favour they’ll love. If candy buffets just aren’t your thing, however, there are lots of ways you can incorporate the stunning visual display and allow your guests to personalize their favours without the candy. As always, you’re only limited by your imagination. Purchasing the containers for a buffet of any kind can be expensive. You may be interested in renting them instead. |
