Blogging Break

We have been lacking with blogging lately because we have been working on three big projects. We will make the announcements on September 2, 2015. Please stay tuned for our announcements! Enjoy your summer!

People cannot forget to the things that make them truly happy because if they do, they will be miserable.

How Wedding Dresses Have Changed

If you think wedding gowns change every year, you should see how they have changed over the decades! Remember what you think is ugly was once on trend! Which decade of wedding gowns is your favorite?

Totally Cool Wedding Ceremony Programs

Couples are foregoing wedding ceremony programs because they feel it is unnecessary, nobody really cares about it, and they are boring.

As a wedding planner, I try to explain to my clients that a wedding ceremony program gives guests an idea of what the ceremony rundown is like and it is also an introduction to the wedding party. You chose these people for a reason and wouldn't you like to share with your guests why they were chosen? Ceremony programs are a great way for the couple to share special stories, notes, and songs with their guests too. You can't say it all at your wedding, so write it down and let your guests read about on their own! It will give them something to do when they are sitting at their seat waiting for the ceremony to begin too!

As for the last reason why ceremony programs are overlooked, here are some examples of how ceremony programs don't have to be boring and actually can be quite cool.

Unique Wedding Card Boxes

At a recent wedding I overheard a wedding guest comment on my client's wedding card box. It was a birdcage. The guest thought it was a great idea and said she was going to steal it. I think she meant to steal the idea and not the birdcage. (I kept a close eye on her in any event.)

Wedding card boxes have come a long way and they do not need to be an actual "box." It just needs to be a vessel to hold the cards that guests bring for the newlywed couple. Here are some ideas of unconventional and unique wedding card boxes.

Lucky for you, most wedding guests come baring envelopes full of cash and checks rather than boxed gifts, so of course you want a cute card box to hold them all. Here are some unique card boxes that we just love. (Images via The Knot)

Essense Of Australia Spring 2016 Bridal Collection

The Essense of Australia Spring 2016 Bridal Collection is filled with gowns that will make you feel like the main character of your very own fairy tale story. Blush colors, delicate chiffon, and lace appliques! All perfect complements for a princess to meet her prince and to live happily ever after. (What can I say? I'm a hopeless romantic for fairy tales.You should have already known that though. "Wishahmon" like "wish upon a star.")

What's New at Wishahmon - August 2015

Last month went by way too fast. So fast that we forgot to do our What's New in July post. Sigh. Here is a recap of some of the exciting things that happened last month and what we have to look forward to this month!

Our guest blogger, Vincci tied the knot with b at Hotel Arts. #vplusbwedding was absolutely awesome and not just "very ok." (inside joke)


We Have New Lace Wedding Gowns 
Brides requested lace gowns and we got more of them added to our wedding gown collection! #wedelivered


Milestone Birthday
I personally celebrated my first birthday as a #newmom to my 10 month old daughter. #wow



What's up with all the hashtags that don't go anywhere? We totally got hooked with hashtags from #vplusbwedding. Let's just say we are still hungover on hashtags.

Thanks to Ivy, we have reorganized ourselves and actually have a plan moving forward. We "vow" to keep up with these What's New at Wishahmon posts from here on out! Pinky swear.
