Wedding Invitation News, Etiquette & Planning Blog

Recently one of our staffers hopped on a plane to travel three states away for a friend’s wedding—but her traveling didn’t stop there. She had to drive an hour outside of town to attend the ceremony in a rural location, and then another hour and a half in the other direction for the reception!

We found it odd to ask your wedding guests to drive all over the state in order to attend the different parts of your celebration, but if an engaged couple has a variety of locations that are important to them, maybe it would be warranted?

Is traveling long distances between the ceremony and the reception a hassle for guests, or just part of what makes a wedding unique? Rant or rave about it!

“New Moon,” the latest Twilight movie, hits theaters at midnight tonight, and we know plenty of Wedding Paper Divas staffers who are flocking to the theaters to drool over their favorite vampires and werewolves!

I haven’t read the Twilight series, but I do know that dark vintage romance is going to be a hot trend for 2010 weddings, so I love looking at photos of the characters’ smoky, sultry vampire style. Any Twilight-loving brides-to-be are sure to adore this spread from InStyle that features top designers’ sketches for Bella’s wedding dress in an upcoming film.
