Bridechilla™ Tip #41

Tip #41 – How to be a BRIDECHILLA™ – Come get inspired with us on our AUTUMN PINTEREST board.

Not that anyone needs an invitation, but we’re just so full of inspiration over on Pinterest that we have to talk about it a little bit. Last year, we went nuts with Off The Beaten Path Weddings over chevron pumpkins… and to tell you all the truth, we’re still pretty much in love with them. But this year, the pumpkins just keep getting better and better.. just take a look!

Moving on to the autumn tables we’ve been swooning over. Aren’t these just gorgeous?

And this was pinned based on the pretty factor. (You know you do it too)

These pins have our stomachs growling for that Thanksgiving meal! But we still have a while to go, so let’s just use this time to get inspired and hopefully achieve a holiday table as lovely as this.

Desserts…

And the beautiful escort cards…

Last but not least – don’t we just love these Fall Harvest looks for this season? Swoon.

Happy pinning everyone! Be sure to find out where all these amazing looks cam from onn our Pinterest board: the Autumn Inspiration

Note: all photos from the inspiring people we follow on Pinterest unless otherwise specified.

Bridechilla™ Tip #40

Tip #40 – How to be a BRIDECHILLA™ – Try this for a change: embellish your wedding day with potted plants instead of fresh cut florals.

Happy first day of the rest of your lives together. We can think of so many reasons to try potted plants as decor opposed to fresh cut flowers, but let’s start with the obvious: they last! What says everlasting love better than florals that will live beyond the beauty of your wedding day? Bridechilla™ has already fallen in love with potted herbs and plants for thank you favors, but now we would like to offer another eco-chill alternative.

By having potted florals as your table centerpiece, you can open your floral options up to even the more sensitive flowers that would normally wilt when snipped from the stem. Feel free to choose potted gardenias, and let your guests enjoy the amazing aroma of a flower they normally wouldn’t be able to enjoy at any other wedding.

With the cost of floral design costs, why not spend your money on something that you can take home to have for years to follow instead of just one day? Take home the potted plants and adorn your backyard, front steps, tables, coffee tables, etc. with memorabilia of your wedding day. You can even send them home with your guests!

We can see this trend rocketing to the top very quickly. It’s simple, affordable, and full of reasons to try. What potted flower would you try for your table centerpieces?
