My Lastest Obsession...

I'm not sure what's gotten into me, but I am all about antiquing lately! Visiting used furniture stores and consignment shops has quickly become my favorite evening & weekend pastime.

I do have a good excuse to go, however! So it's not a complete waste of my time. =)

My stationery studio still has a bare wall, and I'd like to fill it with a lovely antique buffet table. Here are some of my favorite inspirational photos...

I would also like to find some gorgeous baroque/ornate frames to paint white & hang on the wall {with some lovely stationery pieces in them, of course}. Slowly but surely, the studio is coming together nicely. =)

If you have any suggestions for antique stores to visit in the Indy area - please do share!

A Room with a View

Perfect Wedding Guide always knows how to throw a party!

Last night, I had the honor of attending their release party in downtown Indy. The event debuted PWG's new magazine format {see below for a sneak peek!}, which will put tons more info at the fingertips of brides-to-be. It features a more cohesive layout of local vendors, useful articles about today's weddings, as well as utilizing the new QR Code! {If you see a vendor you like, simply scan the code with your smartphone - which will then take you directly to their site. Talk about high-tech...}

The event was also a showcase event for the new event space, D'Amore, located on the 48th floor of the Chase tower. This space is not only versatile & affordable, it's absolutely gorgeous! The space features glass windows from top to bottom, allowing for spectacular views of downtown no matter where you're standing. From the breathtaking views to the built-in uplighting boxes, it's the perfect place for your next party or reception.

The {busy} life of a stationer

This weekend was jam-packed with a baby shower, lunch with the in-laws, dinner & drinks in downtown Indy, a dash of shopping and a wonderful Sunday afternoon & evening of football {GO COLTS!}. I love when my schedule is filled up - it makes me feel like I've spent my weekend as best I could. =)

{Plus, the brisk fall weather is like icing on the cake!}

Now that the weekend is winding down, I'm getting super excited about my week ahead - an event at the new downtown venue D'Amore, as well as the open house at Your Formal Affair. If you are looking for something to fill your weeknights, these are 2 events you should definitely check out!

Straight from the Perfect Wedding Guide site...

Let it Snow...

There's nothing like the threat of snow flurries to snap you into the holiday spirit! Tonight's news weather segment is forecasting snow flurries tomorrow. Bring it on. =)

My husband and I have decided to venture to the mall tomorrow evening, right after our usual Friday night dinner date. We're hoping to get a head start on some holiday shopping, and I'm hoping to get some decor ideas for a {tentative} holiday gathering I'd like to plan for my girlfriends in the area.

I've also done some online research, and find myself wishing I had about 2000 more square feet in my house! I would LOVE to have the space for long tables with lovely linens, gorgeous place settings & stunning centerpieces......here's a quick rundown of some of my favorite decor ideas.....

Will you be hosting any holiday parties at your humble abode this year? What do you have in store for your guests?

Mark Your {November} Calendars!


I stared in bewilderment at my wall calendar this morning, not believing it was really November. How could it be holiday season already? This year is just flying by SO fast!

I looked at the next few weeks & realized that November is jam-packed with some of my favorite local events. Not only do I have the usual business meetings & bridal consultations, but there's also a handful of fun, festive holiday events & a Thanksgiving dinner somewhere in there.

So if you're in the Indy area {or feel like visiting!}, here are a few of my favorites that are taking over my November calendar...

November 2nd
HolidayScapes - An A Classic Open House
I love these seasonal open houses - such a great way for local vendors to network, and brides-to-be to get some great inspiration & vendor information!

November 11th
Your Formal Affair - Grand Opening!

This grand opening is sure to be spectacular - the best in the {wedding} biz have joined efforts & set up shop in Carmel, IN. I can't wait to check out the facility! If you're a bride-to-be, plan to stop by and see what these vendors have to offer. Free refreshments & great company will be provided!

November 10-14th
Christmas Gift & Hobby Show
Think power shopping & delicious holiday treats - all under one {huge} roof! This event always puts me in the Christmas mood. Located at the Indiana State Fairgrounds, this huge event will have goodies, gift ideas, and other fun things to spark your Christmas shopping spirit!
{If memory serves me right, I believe your local Marsh has discount tickets!}

November 26th
Circle of Lights
One of Indy's most beloved holiday traditions, this event takes place the day after Thanksgiving. It's FREE and is great for the entire family. Bring everyone downtown to Monument Circle for live entertainment & the lighting of the circle.


Check them out & enjoy!
