Since then, we've watched Hollywood celebrities like Kate Bosworth, Blake Lively, Julianne Hough and countless other celebrity A-listers don party dresses with plumes of soft, billowy feathers.

Bride-to-Be: Flavor Favors
RC and I are very much into food and cooking, and some of our favorite memories together involve amazing meals.
As such, I recently became very inspired when I came across this post for homemade marshmallows on one of my daily Interweb stops (seriouseats.com). How cute would little stacks of fluffy, multicolor marshmallows be as wedding favors?
Tasty favors are also a great way to go DIY and save some money – make them yourself and incorporate your favorite flavors for a warm, personalized “thank you" to your guests.
Bitten by the edible favor bug, I’ve been digging around for ideas.
Here are some of my best finds:
- Fleur de Sel Caramels
I am a fiend for salty-sweet flavor combinations, and these individually-wrapped bites of heaven would be a great welcome to any celebration.
Keep reading for more flavor favor suggestions from Alana....

Real Green Destination Wedding: That's Amore! Green Wedding in Italy
Katie Triolo and Jordan O’Brien were married on May 22, 2008 in Vernazza (Cinque Terre), Italy.
Both Jordan and Katie have always been environmentally conscious, so planning their wedding with eco-friendly elements was more of a foregone conclusion than a decision to be made. At the time, Jordan was working towards his MBA in Sustainable Enterprise & Real Estate Development to go into green building, so he was especially focused on sustainability and the nuances of greening.
Our friends at The Green Bride Guide are sharing a few ways this couple managed to use local materials and create DIY personal touches to make their wedding unique and green.
