Happy Birthday to Us!

It’s official! Elizabeth Anne Designs is hiring! Are you enthusiastic, detail-oriented and can’t get enough of weddings and all things pretty? We’d love to hear from you!

It’s time for round 2 of the Inspired Creations Contest!  If you’ve been around EAD for a while, you might remember all of the fabulousness of our last Inspired Creations Contest.  If you’re new, well, hold onto your hats because it’s a special kind of awesome.

I hope you guys have a fabulous weekend!  I’m spending the weekend in NYC after being lucky enough to attend a fabulous party for The B-List bloggers hosted by the one and only Colin Cowie.

Congratulations to Danielle, who has won a set of beautiful letterpress thank you cards from Smock in this week of prizes that’s part of the Inspired Creations newsletter launch! Who doesn’t love prizes?

Congrats to Jenna, who is our first winner this week!  Jenna signed up for the new Inspired Creations newsletter (have you signed up yet? The form is in the sidebar!) and has won a gorgeous garter from The Garter Girl.

Whew, it’s been a whirlwind last month for me ya’ll!  I’m excited to be home after three consecutive weekends away.  I plan to veg and watch lots of baseball and Grey’s Anatomy.

Elizabeth Anne Designs and The Sweetest Occasion are back with the latest Inspired Creations Contest and our first annual Inspired Creations holiday gift exchange!

Don’t forget to run to {this post} and comment for your chance to win a custom-designed Laura Hooper map and 50 5×7 prints!  The giveaway is being sponsored by EAD and Project Wedding, who just launched a VERY cool new map-building feature on their site.

Hello readers!

Don’t forget to check out our new blog of the week, Princess in Galoshes!  Written by a new bride named Cat who loves her cats, husband and dreams of being a Norwegian Princess. We especially love the nicknames and salty language.

In my 8 years of blogging, today may be cause for the single biggest celebration yet! Why you ask? At long last, it’s time to debut the brand-new Aisle Society website to the world! For the past several months, a group of more than 30 of the best wedding bloggers from across the world have been working to create a brand new way to find wedding inspiration! Aisle Society is the only way to catch the latest content from your favorite bloggers, all in one gorgeous place. And best of all, you can curate your very own personalized feed of your favorite wedding styles, design elements, wedding pros, bloggers, and more, making it a cinch to plan your perfect day!

Happy Tuesday everyone! We have exciting news today! If you follow us on Facebook, you saw a little sneak peek last night, but today we are thrilled to officially unveil our brand new shop! We’ve had so much fun curating our little shop, including the most swoon-worthy of styles. From show-stopping shoes to that perfect party dress, we select pieces that reflect the EAD bride’s elegance and sophistication.

Ladies and gents, today we have the privilege of sharing Melissa Hayes’ sparkling new wedding website!  If you haven’t seen Melissa’s work before, you are in for quite a treat today because we can assure you it is positively lovely!  Her new website showcases her amazing photography perfectly with several collections that will make your jaw drop.  From cheery outdoor ceremonies to chic ballroom receptions to cultural weddings filled with color and warmth, Melissa has photographed it all beautifully!

If you’re as crazy over pretty bows as we are, the new Midori ribbon bridal collection will steal your heart. After gushing over each new style in their spring lines, we are ready to tie everything around us in ribbons of all colors! We are thrilled to share some of their latest products and know they will bring some additional loveliness to your wedding day.

Update: all 20 pairs of tickets have been given away. Thanks all!

Hello lovelies! We are so thrilled to announce that Elizabeth Anne Designs is on the hunt for two additions to our fabulous team. Are you enthusiastic, detail-oriented and can’t get enough of weddings and all things pretty? We’d love to hear from you!

You spoke, I listened, and today I’m so pleased to announce the debut of the new and improved Vendor Guide!  The revamped guide is made up of entirely featured vendor portfolios. Vendors in the Guide have been personally reviewed by the Elizabeth Anne Designs team to ensure that they are someone you can trust to help you through the wedding process. All of the vendors in the Guide have an aesthetic and quality that matches our editorial philosophy. They are the vendors that we would choose — or HAVE chosen! — for our own weddings and events, and those that you see each and every day on the pages of the blog.

UPDATE: Congratulations to our winner Amanda, who won the $50 gift card by random.org draw. And I have amazing news! One Tail at a Time won the online voting!! Kriser’s is now counting up any mail-in votes, and will officially announce a winner on July 28th – paws crossed for them and THANK YOU for helping such a great cause by voting!
