Wedding Consultant Elizabeth Howard of The Cordial Cricket and Upper Shirley Vineyards shared with us that donuts can be both an elegant and delicious addition to a wedding event. Likewise, we were tickled pink and it was love at first sight (and bite!) when we saw the gorgeous glittering donuts on Pink the Town's Glitter Donut Party post. We’ve been dreaming of delightfully designed donuts ever since and have definitely seen them becoming more and more popular.
Whether as a stylish After-Party snack, a charming brunch addition or a stunning shower treat, we love the idea of indulging guests’ taste buds! Here are a few ways to make this divine dessert your own.
Have fun(fetti) with unique flavors...

Donuts can be made with many different ingredients – not only traditional vanilla and chocolate. Embrace your favorite flavors from tropical coconut, to the cheerful funfetti birthday cake, sophisticated blood orange or even churro for a cultural twist. Your guests will get a welcome surprise with every bite.

The hemline has risen—intentionally.
The modern bridal mini has shifted from an after-party alternative to a ceremony-ready statement--the Little White Dress redefined. It has become city-hall appropriate, rehearsal-dinner definitive, and wedding-reception essential. Structured, abbreviated, and deliberate, it signals confidence rather than compromise. The short wedding dress was once a radical departure; today it is simply a sophisticated choice for a white rehearsal dinner dress, a wedding reception second look, and an after party wedding dress. The bridal mini dress honors the heritage of 1960s couture and makes an equally compelling case as the second look.

Who says the magic has to begin at “I do”? For today’s modern bride, every event leading up to the wedding is a moment worthy of sartorial celebration. From the engagement party to the rehearsal dinner and every toast in between, creating a beautiful and unique assortment of little white dresses is an opportunity for each bride to showcase her personal style. One of our favorite options is to choose a little white dress with a subtle amount of sparkle.
