    About Estilo Weddings

From that moment, Maria decided that women should not have to drop their unique sense of style just for traditions sake. And so in 2007 Maria launched Estilo Weddings.

    What is a Monogram? A monogram is simply the combination of 2 or more letters to create a unique and personalized logo. During the 1920’s and 1930’s, the monogram was commonly used to define a family’s status among society. A family who had a monogram of their own, meant they had items to monogram; like silver, or linens or jewelry.

  • Bridesmaids Gift Ideas!

    It is a daunting task to have to come up with a perfect bridesmaid gift that all of your leading ladies will appreciate, especially if you're trying to think outside of the silver, monogrammed jewelry) box. But before you throw up your hands and resign yourself to ordering the standard engraved photo frame for everyone, stop! Put down the mouse, back away from the ' Useless−Monogrammed−Knickknacks−R−Us.com' website, and consider one of the more unique options listed below. These ideas can be used specifically, or as a springboard for your own imagination. Also, keep in mind that there is no one−size−fits−all bridesmaid gift, so don't feel like you need to give everyone the same thing. Your bridesmaids will appreciate the love and care you put into choosing something special that reflects their individual tastes, and there is no reason to break the bank in order to show your appreciation for their involvement in your special day. With a little creativity (and some helpful hints), you will be able to give your girls a gift that they might actually (gasp!) use.

    Shades of Green
    Making their mark in 2007, Green Weddings have lead the way for 2008 trends. The spring and summer seasons are the perfect time to celebrate this top spot trend. An abundance of flowers and fruit fill the markets giving brides the advantage of buying local. Outdoor venues like gardens, meadows, farm lands and lake settings make for a beautiful natural backdrop for Eco-friendly ceremonies. And though donations made in honor of your guests are popular as green wedding favors, eco-friendly favors are also a great alternative, as you'll read later.

  • Sharing the Love Part 2 : Charity Wedding Favors

    Unless you’re planning to offer relief to those friends and family members who indulge too freely in the bubbly at your reception by giving away big bottles of water and heart-shaped aspirin tins with your names and wedding date lovingly displayed above the dosage instructions, chances are your wedding favors are not going to be something that will dramatically improve the quality of their lives. My husband would argue that couples who have given him personalized beer cozies as wedding favors have dramatically improved the quality of his life during hot summer afternoons, but I would contend that it’s possible to bring even greater things to the world than that. Although I do love it when my beer stays cold through an entire game of bocce ball.
