Miles & Dado’s Lace-infused Rosary Wedding Cord

I first met sis Miles last year via W@W e-group, an online community exclusively for brides to help them plan their dream wedding. I’ve been very vocal about how helpful this community was in planning our wedding last year and I would never cease on recommending this community to every bride.

Anyhow, when sis Miles contacted me not so long ago, she mentioned that she didn’t know I started my humble business until one of the W@Wies (brides who are part of the W@W e-group) posted that she had their wedding cord made by me and so she also wants a unique wedding cord.

After a couple of email exchanges, I learned that creating this particular wedding cord is like a déjà vu only because we almost have the same wedding motif – teal, lime green and gold. If you’re a follower/reader of this blog, you’ll know that our original motif is a combination of these three colors. Furthermore, as part of satisfying the bride’s request, I asked sis Miles about what she wants for a wedding cord and here’s her only, yet intriguing (I must add), response:

"Go crazy with it."

Jerralyn and Frederick’s Modern Contemporary Wedding Cord

Bold and Beautiful.

That’s what I think of immediately after browsing through this couple’s wedding website. They’re one of those young couples who are brave enough to use black as one of their very special day’s motif. Why not? Afterall, their motif, which is a bold mix of black and hot pink spells f-a-b-u-l-o-u-s.

Joan and Bobie’s Meant to Bee Wedding Cord

Oh, how I l-o-v-e working on accessories with a wedding theme! My so called “creative juices” overflow whenever I have to work on an accessory to match with the couple’s wedding theme. I’d like to think that that’s exactly what happened when I created the fab wedding cord of sis Joan and Bobie.

Browsing through this fab couple’s wedding website and reading their sort of cat-and-mouse-chase love story is awe-inspiring. I can’t help but fall in love with their chosen theme, which is “Meant to Bee” (flowers and bees). Their wedding monogram created by sis Joy (a fellow W@Wie) inspired me the most. See for yourself…

Real Wedding: Tala & Japes’ Beautiful Rocker Chic Wedding

I was under the weather and having a pretty rough day when these beautiful photos came to my inbox:

Bride & Groom Matching Rosary Set

"Rosary is one of the most eloquent signs of love that the young generation nourishes for Jesus and his Mother." ~ Benedict XVI

To Pope Benedict XVI, the rosary is a meditation on all important moments of salvation history. Furthermore, the Blessed Virgin Mary, through Saint Dominic and Blessed Alan de Rupe, made 15 promises to Christians who pray the rosary. The Fifteen rosary promises range from protection from misfortune to meriting a high degree of glory in heaven.

Wedding Gowns Galore: CHRISTOS

Amsale took over Christos when the Cyprus-born designer Christos Yiannakou decided to retire in 2005 after heading his collection for 20 solid years. After taking over the helm, Amsale has upheld Christos legacy for tradition while infusing a touch of her own modern sensibility into the collection. Amsale’s Christos gowns have long stood out for their impeccable heirloom quality.

Tin & John’s Black & Gold Rosary Wedding Cord

“Early bird gets the worm.”

This famous quote reminds me of sis Tin. She’ll be walking down the aisle on December 2012 but they have started preparing for their wedding late last year. Love it.

When sis Tin contacted me, she immediately mentioned that she wanted a rosary cord that will incorporate their wedding theme – travel and photography. Their love for each other and these two hobbies are very apparent on her blog. The real challenge for me, however, is that their wedding motif is a combination of black and gold. I never worked with these colors before so I spent a lot of time researching for a great and elegant design. I do not want to hit and miss.
