Do you know I think we missed our first birthday? I cant believe its come round already! And I can't believe that what started as a little idea to help plan my own wedding has grown so quickly with thousands of visitors from all over the world. Thank you so much to everyone who takes the time to comment and read and submit to our blog. We're looking forward to an even bigger and better year ahead with all sorts of exciting projects planned and new inspiring wedding themes each month.

Anyway, here is what we fell in love with this month...

As winter seems well and truly here with pouring rain and howling winds I thought this stunning photo by Robin Alfian was quite appropriate. Melbourne based Paper and Ribbons with their beautiful vintage inspired jewellery also caught our eye this month. How pretty is this little tree charm? Don't forget to rug up! If you're planning a wedding in the cooler months check out the gorgeous shawls and shrugs from Reflections by DS.

Next month... it's time to tie the knot!

Here is a beautiful idea for a DIY wedding decoration that I stumbled on the other day. Just cut strips of green rice paper and round the ends - then tie to a piece of string! So simple but so effective! Love it.

As I mentioned at the beginning on the month we're going to try and look at interesting ideas for what to do with images and memorabilia after the wedding. Usually photos, but this is something a little bit different. As an alternative to the traditional guest book, how about a fingerprint tree? Guests leave their thumbprint as a leaf on your tree, which can then be hung on your wall later and looks great. 

Scampi made another trip to a cafe this weekend, he was pretty well behaved, which is more than we can say for the day before...
