Couture Coloure,

What does Super Bowl Sunday have to do with MY wedding?

Friday, February 5, 2010 at 6:00AM

As you may {or may not} know, Super Bowl Weekend has arrived! With this being the first time in the Saints' history that New Orleans has made it to the Super Bowl, and the adorable Payton Manning playing quarterback for the Indianapolis Colts, this is bound to be a great game!

Any die hard fans out there? Enough to make your team the theme for your wedding? Using the wonderful Dessy Style Boards, we have done just that!

Without further ado...Colts vs. Saints Style Boards:

Colts:

Photo credits: garter picture, wine glasses, underwear, dress, tie, cake, garter, cake topper

Saints:

Photo credits: earrings photo, cake, flower girl dress, shoes, socks, garter, wine glasses, dress, flask

Not ready to commit your entire wedding to a football team? Try surprising him with a cute accent of his favorite football team. It's sure to score points...maybe even a TOUCHDOWN!! :)

With love from Michelle |

An Eco-Friendly Wedding: Joanna and Padraic

Wednesday, February 3, 2010 at 3:16AM

When I read the answers submitted by Joanna and Padraic for their real wedding article, I was so touched ... Their love for each other just jumped off the screen and the fact that they had about 3 different wedding proposals (no, they didn't break up in between ... you'll have to read to find out!!) says just how far this couple will go to show their affection. They also had an eco-chic wedding, which is always a huge plus with me :)

Thank you, Julie Mikos for submitting such a beautiful wedding! Click here to unveil the full article and see much larger photos.

~xoxo~ Heather

Do You Eye Your SHADOW?

Tuesday, February 2, 2010 at 4:08AM

It's Groundhog Day and whether or not you're hoping Puxatony Phil sees his shadow or crawls back into his hole {has Spring sprung??}, we thought we'd celebrate this day the Style Unveiled way :) ... with shadows you can use on your wedding day! Eye shadow!!!

Below are just some color palette ideas we found on Nordstrom.com ... But they might inspire some thoughts to go over with your Beauty expert! Other ways to be inspired by wedding day make-up? Check out these websites: Mendocino Beauty and Blush.

Some shadows don't want to be seen anytime ... Such as under eye shadows!! Make sure you talk to your Beauty expert about the best under eye concealer to not only make your face flawless, but to stay put if wedding tears fall.

All photos used in this post were found on Nordstrom.com

Happy Birthday, Heather!

Wednesday, January 27, 2010 at 6:06AM

Although she will surely kill me for doing this... I just wanted to hop up on my tiny soapbox to publicly wish Heather a most Happy Birthday!!! I couldn't wish for a better business partner, support system, confidant, or friend. I still can't tell you enough how fortunate I feel to have you in my life and am thankful everyday for how much of it I get to share with you :)

As anyone following you on Twitter knows, you and Clint are expecting your first and I couldn't be happier! I hope that this year is your best yet. I can't wait to see all of our big plans through.

luv, Kimberly

Speaking of Twitter, anyone want to join me in wishing Heather a Happy Birthday can just click the following message:

Happy Birthday @heathersharpe! @kimberlyaperson says you are the raddest half of @styleunveiled :)

PS. I'm totally bringing you a pregnancy craving breakfast!

A Suit With A Conscience!

Tuesday, January 26, 2010 at 5:59PM

Been on the fence about a suit for your handsome groom? Well, if you need a little nudge, Joseph Abboud suits are donating 10% of their net profits for suits purchased through Nordstrom from now until January 30th to Doctors Without Borders to assist the relief effort in Haiti. So... stylish suit {check} amazing customer service {check} and a karmic boost for helping out {check} Sounds about right. Here are just three of our favorites but check out Joseph Abboud on Nordstrom's site for more!

luv, Kimberly

Style Dare: Webcast Your Wedding?

Monday, January 25, 2010 at 7:03PM

For something as rooted in tradition and sentiment as a wedding, technology is having an incredible impact. Perhaps you've heard of Wedding Webcasts?

We had to get the scoop on this technology and went to the husband and wife team, Stacy and Chris of Marry Me Live, a company who really impressed us with their customer service commitment to clarify some of the most frequently asked questions:

Q: "My fiance and I are not technical at all, are we going to have to figure out how to set things up?"

A: No. Not at all :) When working with Marry Me Live, there is no need to figure out how to set things up. We take care of the technical details so that you don’t have to worry about a thing. We pre-scout your location, go on-site, and set-up the live wedding stream so that viewers can start watching your wedding 30 minutes before the ceremony event starts.

Q: "We've already hired a videographer. Why would we have two video companies there?"

A: Although both videographers and video streaming uses the same medium, the results and objectives are quite different. As a wedding streaming company, we enable wedding couples to share their wedding live with family and friends, allowing everyone to “attend” the wedding.

Q: "Do we get to see the footage after the wedding also?"

A: Yes! Marry Me Live provides both the live video stream as well as on-demand video so that you can watch the wedding for 30 days following the event. You can even wake up the next morning following your wedding and experience it all over again.

*Quick note: Stacy also runs the totally useful and darling blog, Bay Area Bride Guide!

Style Unveiled wants to know... would you do it? Tell us more about what you think in the comments!

U is for Unity Candle

Friday, January 22, 2010 at 4:02PM

The dress... the cake tasting... these are the things most people are excited to do to plan their weddings. Shopping for unity candles... maybe not so much. To give you a little help, we've rounded up some of our preferred designs.

1. Fern Pillar and Tapers from PleasantRidgeCandles The flowers and leaves are grown and picked in the artist's own organic garden!

2. Personalized Unity Candle set with Swarovski Crystals and lace from American Bridal Look past the tulle in the photo to see a set that would be adorable with a sparkly embroidered dress.

3. Contemporary Unity Candle from Exclusively Weddings For those who are over the whole round candle thing :)

4. Floating Unity Candle with Vase fron Exclusively Weddings Would be stunning for a sunny outdoor ceremony!

5. Carved Ribbon Unity Candle from RibbonCandles Ornate, vintage-y, and totally unique.

6. Monogrammed Unity Candle from Beaucoup Could there be a more classic unity candle than this?

7. Yours Truly Unity Set from Marquis by Waterford No need to chase down any extra accoutrements.

Natural White Birch Unity Candle Holders Ok, so not techinically the candles... I *love* this for an outdoor wedding! Just get two tapers and a tealight and you have such an amazing set.

Now that you've got a gorgeous candle, please... back away from the Aim 'N Flame. It's just not ok for a wedding or the photos. Here are some options so that you can avoid it at all costs :)

1. The Zippo Candle Lighter Available in a few colors, it's a great, unobtrusive lighter for the ceremony.

2. The Manhattan Lighter Studded with Swarovski crystals

3. The Wickman Lighter Granted, we've been calling it the 'Harry Potter' lighter around the office, it's still a total favorite!

4. The Oxford Lighter Leather. Handled. Lighter. Need we say more?

5. Versailles Mosaic Lighter I love these. Sparkly and bound to fit your color scheme with the options.
