What’s new at Mew? Bird Wedding Invitation with Belly Band

I think I’m on a cottage-y, vintage-y, garden-y kick these days and I think this new wedding suite certainly fits the vibe.

Mew Paper is now an @emmalinebride Vendor

We all know I have somewhat mixed feelings about Twitter–I have yet to really honestly convey the feelings I have (I’ve got a drafted post that I just don’t have the courage to publish!).  But even despite my (mostly) negative feelings, I do come up with some pretty cool finds once in a while.  I [...]

Well, to spare rewriting the whole darn thing, I’ll give you a nutshell version.  The photos [...]

You’ll recall the red damask invitation suite I introduced to you the other day, right?  I’ve been stalking Anne and Mike’s photographer’s wedding blog this week, and I was ecstatic to see the post of their breathtaking wedding day. Spencer Lum kindly gave me permission to post his incredible work.  And on the subject of [...]
