Wedding Website
Lo and behold little ol' me actually created a wedding website! I didn't realize what a necessity it was until I started getting bombarded with questions from guests. It really helps having everything online for people to view. After searching online for a "free" wedding website I came across Bridal Fever. And yes, it really is free. You can create your website from a variety of templates offered which I found to be pretty cute and customizable compared to other similar sites. They offer basic html instruction so I was able to add links, add my own background (a really cute fleur de lis pattern) and customize whatever details I wanted. After saving images for inspiration, it was a breeze to insert pictures I already had on hand throughout the site. I chose to buy a domain name for personal use (Wedding and Non/Wedding related) from Go Daddy for a steal (compared to what you have to pay for at regular wedding sites that typically expire soon after the wedding) and I forwarded my bridal fever site to my domain. I highly recommend going this route for an easy to use, inexpensive and design friendly wedding website.

A Challenge
Pocket square without tie? Check! A bit of purple? Check!
The nail in the coffin. Take a look at this dapper fellow:
Clothes Make the Man
The pocket squares I've looked at typically come in linen and silk. The linen pocket squares are typically "crisper" and more traditional. They have to be ironed out before folding to retain that crisp fold everyone loves. Silk pocket squares like the one below have a more billowy look to them so it really is a matter of preference. I'm not sure if you can see the tie below in detail but it has little fleur de lis on it! The colors also happen to coordinate with my bridesmaid dresses. If only I could get pocket squares with the same design/color! The tie comes from Duncan Quinn and they have a fabulous selection to choose from. Duncan Quinn is known for it's "rock and roll meets Saville Row" style. Check them out!
