April showers bring May flowers! We are about a week away from May and according to my allergies, the spring plants are definitely in bloom! I recently found these super cute potted cupcakes! I would love to serve something like this at a spring brunch or garden party. Chocolate cupcakes are super easy to make and you can order the fondant Sweet Sprout Cupcake Toppers on Etsy!
As a former teacher, these cupcakes would have been the PERFECT addition to our Earth Day class activities! What do you think? I’d love to know!
When planning your wedding or next special event, don’t feel pressured to follow the norm. Feel free to create your own traditions. When you think outside the box, the possibilities are endless!!
My husband, Jovan, and I have been anticipating the premiere of Steve Harvey’s Think Like A Man movie based on his best selling book. We had an opportunity to check out the movie this past weekend. It was GREAT! The characters were so real! I could easily cast a few of my girlfriends in some of those roles (they know who they are… LOL!) Kevin Hart was absolutely hilarious! As a wedding planner, I love hearing stories from couples on how they met and some of the obstacles they overcame as they prepare to walk down the aisle.
Take a peek at the movie trailer:
Did you have a chance to check out ‘Think Like A Man’ this weekend? If so, what were your thoughts? I look forward to purchasing the movie as soon as it hits the stores! I’m already planning a couple’s viewing party at our home. It’ll be fun to hear our friends interact to some of the scenes in a men vs. women relationship debate. I am sooo thankful that I don’t have to deal with any of those mind games anymore!! I have my Mr. Right! (*muah* to Jovan!!)
I love baking! I’m always looking for fun and new ideas to try. Have you ever thought about making your own cake flowers? I recently found the cutest recipe courtesy of Wild Orchid Baking Company (LOVE her cakes) for Wedding Chicks. Check out the details below:
I love every aspect of the wedding day. Watching the father of the bride walk his daughter down the aisle and hand her off to the man of her dreams is always a tearjerker for me. I can only all of the emotion that daddy feels at this particular moment in time. It’s so precious! Brides, I’ve found the perfect gift for you to give your dad! These beautiful black and white cufflinks will remind him that you’ll always be daddy’s little girl.
Your father is sure to love these cufflinks. Head over to the whitetruffle Etsy shop to order yours today. This is a treasured gift that will touch his heart and last a lifetime!
Are you planning to get your daddy a pre-wedding gift? If so, what is it? I’d love to know!
The fabulous Vera Wang recently unveiled her spring 2013 bridal collection. The runway show featured beautiful shades of cardinal, crimson, dahlia, scarlett, and vermillion with lots of tulle and Chantilly lace! I absolutely love Vera’s nontraditional approach to couture bridal fashion! Take a peek at the new collection below:
Which dress is your favorite? I love the scarlett mermaid gown with the floral shoulder coursage!! Would you ever wear a red bridal gown? I’d love to know!

Happy Thursday! Have you ever wondered why we wear our wedding ring on the left hand? The wedding ring goes on the left ring finger because it’s the only finger with a vein that connects directly to the heart! That’s so romantic!
Ebony Peoples Events & Design recently had an opportunity to work with a fabulous group of Dallas wedding and event professionals on a chic shoot for the Style Unveiled wedding blog.
