Eco-Beauty: Bayberry Naturals
Always on a quest to help you stay eco in every way, we recently came across a line of plant-based skin products that you should check out! Bayberry Naturals is a 100% all-natural line, focused on hydrating and soothing skin.
They’ve also managed to ensure their products leave you smelly yummy too…Tangerine Lavender…Citrus Mint…Lavender Shea Sugar…yes!
Bayberry Naturals offers a product for every aspect of your day—skin and hair care essentials for the bride, shower gels for the groom and even delish soaps for your guests! We love the idea of personalizing the restrooms at your venue with a scented Bayberry Naturals hand soap (hmm, maybe the Aloe and Shea scent?) along with some eco-friendly hand towels. A thoughtful addition to your day!
Take a peek at the Bayberry Naturals collection here…

Save the Dates
Once you’ve settled on a wedding date and location for your wedding, the ideal next step is to send out a save the date card. Typically sent six months prior to your wedding (or eight months if you are planning a destination wedding), the save the date is a courteous gesture to your guests, particularly if travel is involved. Save the dates are also expected to be creative, so have fun with it!
Keep your save the dates eco-friendly by going digital! There are plenty of cool apps, like Sincerely Ink, out there to help. Select a super-cute photo, and design a save the date card right from your mobile.
If you love the easy process, Sincerely Ink can help you with up to 12 custom cards—so consider going green for your invites and thank-you notes too!

Mother of the Bride Style
Since Mother’s Day is almost here, how about a little Mother-of-the-Bride style?
We wholeheartedly agree that you should be the prettiest girl at your wedding, but if there had to be a runner-up, it would have to be Mom! Your wedding celebration is the day of her dreams too, so let her style reflect it. There are options galore for moms who want to look and feel glamorous. Particularly for summer weddings, encourage Mom to play with colors and even prints that compliment your wedding’s palette. And dresses that flow are ideal for that twirl on the dance floor with the dapper groom!
