I totally wanted to post about Nicole Richie & Joel Madden's wedding, but it looks like I'm going to have to wait for the tabloid bidding war to be over to get a good glimpse of the details. I just love Nicole's style and have to believe that wedding was jam-packed with event trends (including elephants, apparently).

For the time being, we will stick to the holidays, as those are just as fun to celebrate and as they quickly approach, you can't help but be in the festive spirit. Here is a concept that ties both a wedding and the holidays together... the other day, my mother-in-law shared with me a concept for an engagement celebration (could also be a couple's wedding shower), that I totally feel in love with. The premise is a holiday cocktail party, but each guest brings an ornament to help decorate the soon-to-be newlyweds Christmas tree. This way the newlyweds start out with a set of ornaments to decorate with in their first few years of marriage. The ornaments come from friends & family and therefore have sentimental value. They are geared towards life as a couple, so they are a perfect foundation for the couple to build on as their marriage and family grow. Have a small tree with lights ready for guests to help decorate or have them brought as traditional wrapped gifts for the couple to open. Request a sampling of ornaments (traditional, personalized, etc), so the couple receives a variety.
