Here at TWIST, you’ll find everything from $30 gemstone earrings in their ‘Cheap Chic’ section to $5000+ platinum diamond eternity rings by designers like Cathy Waterman and Malcolm Betts. Seeing some of these rings makes me seriously considering foregoing the engagement ring and just getting a NICE wedding band instead! The ring below is by Devon Page McCleary and is just absolutely beautiful!! (photos from TWIST)

Elizabeth Showers has unbelievably reasonably priced pretty jewelry! If there is a Neiman Marcus near you, you can also find some of her more expensive pieces there. (photos from Elizabeth Showers)

The jewelry and accessories at Viv and Ingrid are very delicate and modern. Especially cool is their 2-piece ‘convertible’ charm necklace that can also be worn as a bracelet and anklet! (photos from Viv and Ingrid)

Here’s a great rhinestone accented invite that isn’t TOO gaudy and bling bling and also a cool pop-up cherry blossom invitation! What a great idea! Emi Ink, a Hawaii-based company, makes these invites and more! (photos from Emi Ink)

A friend with graphic design background shared this page with me and it’s soooo awesome with so many great ideas for invite designs and layout! (Thanks Kristen!) Most of these aren’t ‘wedding invites’, but I think that a lot of these ideas can be translated into amazing ‘wedding-appropriate’ designs! Here’s just a small sampling of what you’ll find!

beaded bouquet wraps

I was inspired this picture on The White Aisle to make my own bouquet wrap with some clear fishing line and a pack of sparkly beads I got from my local dollar store. If you don’t want to go through the hassle of making one yourself, order one from The White Aisle for only $2.99 each! (photos from The White Aisle)

Two amazing luxury resorts in Phuket, The Banyan Tree and Amanpuri . If you have an extra 2.5 million dollars laying around, you can use it ‘buy’ a chunk of time (up to 60 days) to spend at The Banyan Tree every year…please invite me along if you are one of these lucky people!
