Monique Lhuillier Makes Me Salivate

Seriously, her dresses are SO beautiful.  I love seeing brides mix it up a little, wearing colorful and unique dresses.  Here are some of my favorites from Monique Lhuillier.

White Dresses:

Color Dresses (Most of these are from the resort collection):

Of course, these will set you back $3,000 - $10,000, ballpark...so they are understandably not in everyone's budget.  But my goodness, if you can afford it, go for it!

Cake Toppers go Custom

I love cake toppers almost as much as I love chandeliers, and I love chandeliers.  But I digress, this post is about some really cool ideas for cake toppers that I have come across lately.

I love the idea of having custom cake toppers made to truley represent the bride and groom...and no one that I've seen does it better than HellinaHandbag.  I found her on etsy while searching for off beat wedding ideas, and I just love them, it is exactly what I would want on my own wedding cake.  She takes vintage cake toppers and re-vamps them with your style, hair color, dress details, and even your tattoos and makeup!  Prices range from $50 - $150.  Visit http://www.hellinahandbag.net and click on "custom orders" for ordering information.

Another idea I came across for all you Steampunk guys and gals are these really awesome robot cake toppers by The Builder's Studio on Esty.com.  They start at about $100 an go up from there.
