(photos from New York Wedding Day by  Liesl Henrichsen from PhotoPink. Photos from “Celebration of Love” party by Jerry Zalez Photography other photos captured by various media outlets to celebrate first day of Gay Marriage in NYC. hooray!)

What’s the overall ‘feeling’ you’re aiming for with your celebration: We wanted an intimate Celebration of Love – that was catered to us. We were not concerned with having the […]

Fun, fun and pretty much more fun. I’ve been waiting and waiting to have the chance to introduce you all to these great ladies – enjoy getting to know Liz and Cristina! The Glö-Couple: Liz, an attorney and Cristina, a pastry chef These gals blog! Check out Liz’s blog Bunny Loves Bacon and Cristina’s blog Cervezecal Celebration Date & Location: September 2011 Ceremony: Coral Gables Congregational Church, Reception: Cristina’s parents’ house Coral Gables, Florida USA Tell us how you got engaged: Cristina says: Liz had been drinking, and as I was putting her to bed she looked up sleepily and said “will you marry me?” And I said yes. And the next morning we confirmed that it was all true.   What’s the overall ‘feeling’ you’re aiming for with your celebration: The overall feeling is “family gathering with bacon.” We didn’t want anything too formal and we want people to have plenty of good food and drinks, feel comfortable, and have fun spending time with each other. For us, this means not worrying about or including chair covers, favors, or the color […]

And who doesn’t want to have a Scottish-Singaporean wedding? Plus, these two are keeping the ceremony and reception location a surprise for their guests – Uber-fun!  This celebration has all the necessary ingredients (not to mention a fabulously sweet bride.) Diann and Andrew sent paper invitations that guided guests to their Glösite for more information and to RSVP. Read more below…. The Glö-Couple: Diann, a budding entrepreneur and Andrew, an engineer Celebration Date & Location: May 2011 A secret location (um, how majorly fun is that?!?) Bali, Indonesia Tell us how you got engaged: We made a trip to Bali over a long weekend in February 2010. Andrew and I love to travel and we try to do so every opportunity we can. Well I thought it was going to be a quiet relaxing weekend but on Day 2 of our trip, which just so coincidentally happened to be Valentine’s Day, we were having breakfast out by the pool in our villa when Andrew said he had to go back in to our room to get something. I thought nothing of it and continued eating my breakfast and before I […]

There are tons of free twitter background available on the web – giving endless Glösite design possibilities. Love that! Here’s an adorable example I found on Free Twitter Skins – this one is called Winged Messenger. I uploaded the twitter design as the Glösite “background image” – anchored left. And then chose an existing Glö design for the “page design.” I think it’s a perfect match! Are ya diggin’ it?

They’re getting married in the beautiful state of Colorado (my new home!), so I am pretty thrilled about that. And Elizabeth spends lots of time looking through a lens at the wedding world, so I just know that there will be lots of lovely details included in their celebration. The Glö-Couple: Elizabeth, a wedding and portrait photographer & Scott, a commercial loan underwriter Celebration Date & Location: January 2011 Colorado Springs, CO USA La Foret Conference and Event Center Tell us how you got engaged: We were sitting on our back deck, enjoying the warm summer night and a good glass of bourbon, talking about whether or not we should get married, and Scott pulled out the ring and got down on both knees and asked me to be his wife. It is a simple story, but one of the many memories that will make moving to a new home harder in the future.   What’s the overall ‘feeling’ you’re aiming for with your celebration: It really is a celebration of our friends and family, and thanking them for the support they have given us in our love. So, we really do just want to show […]

Not only are they getting married on my birthday next year (yay!) but they are actually putting pie front and center in their celebration. PIE! How cool is that?!? The Glö-Couple: Shanelle, an Operations Assistant & Mike, a Marketing Manager Celebration Date & Location: August 2011 Camano Island, WA; Camano Island State Park Tell us how you got engaged: I actually proposed to Mike! (You go girl!) We went to his folks vacation home (which he loves) near the Canal to escape a busy period in our lives. I was a nervous wreck, so I basically blurted out a speech about loving him and wanting to marry him and then asked him if he would be engaged to me. I even gave him a watch. He said “of course” right away and then got on his knees and said sweet things. We cried and kissed and laughed and then did a shot of tequila! It was perfect.   What’s the overall ‘feeling’ you’re aiming for with your celebration: Mike and I are pretty laid back, but love to throw rad parties, so our wedding will reflect our interests […]

The other day, I happened across a fabulous resource from One Heart Weddings, which offers downloadable DIY designs. Their designs are super compatible to upload as Glövites, and you can print the designs at home if you need some extra paper invites for the older relatives. Plus, there are matching templates for Wedding Programs, Menus and Thank You cards. (as an added bonus, the first 2 downloads are free. yippee!) I also love that there is a “backgrounds and accents” category with icons and images that are perfect for making Glösite designs.   To use a OneHeart Wedding invitation design as a Glövite, take the following steps: 1) Choose any OneHeart invitation design  (I recommend using a portrait sized design) and clicked “personalize online” 2) Edit the text and click “download PDF” 3) To upload into Glö, you’ll need to crop the design and save it as a ,jpg, .gif or png format. You can either crop the PDF version and then save it as a JPG using a program like paint (PC), paintbrush (mac) or Adobe Photoshop. OR You can take a screenshot of the finished design […]
