Monday Mention: Recycledbride.com

Now if you aren't planning a wedding don't count Recycled Bride out just yet. It is a great sight even if you are planning another type of event.

So what is Recycled Bride? It is a website where people can sell things for weddings or other events. If you are a Bride they have great deals on wedding dresses that sometimes haven't ever even been worn. I found that a lot of brides on there had changed their venue and their original dress didn't work anymore so they are selling it to recoup some of the money to buy a new dress.

The greatest thing I found on the site was decorations. These could be used for any event and are at a fraction of the price if you were to buy them new and retail. I love all the apothecary jars and there were a lot on there when I was looking for a great deal!

Happy party planning!

Monday Mentions: Blvd Bliss Designs

Well friends here we are! The beginning of Perfect Party Design. I am so excited to share some of my designs with you and others ideas I find along the way. I will of course always credit the ideas to whomever I believe to be the original thinker of these said ideas.

I have always loved planning parties. From the time I was a little girl I remember coordinating colors and ideas into a work of art for gatherings of friends and family. I do have to say that my taste has become more refined and I love the details.

But enough about me. Every Monday I will be hosting Monday Mentions. I came up with this idea after being inspired by so many great minds on the internet. I love how you can stick any random idea for a party into google and get so much inspiration from other bloggers as well as find great deals on the things you nee for these parties.

Today's mention is of a dear friend of mine who runs Bliss Blvd Designs a great company that does invitations, stationary and party decor. She is amazingly talented. My fiance and I recently went to her to order our invitations for the big day. She is very reasonably priced and has quality work. We gave her the theme of our wedding and she came up with a fantastic invite. I think it is really important that the invitation to any event helps express the mood and style you are wanting. This invitation definitely will do that!!

Not only does she do great invites but she also runs a great blog. She always has great pictures that have helped inspire some of my creations. Below are some pictures of her work and she also run an Etsy Shop that you can purchase pre-made stationary or request a custom job!

Some of her great work...
Thanks for coming and being a part of our first Monday Mentions...check back throughout the week for more great ideas and tips!
