That magical time of the year…Girl Scout Cookie Season! They were stars at this year’s Oscars. Why not use your favorite treat (and everyone else's!) as wedding inspiration? Here are a few chic ways to turn your favorite cookie into a hit at the reception.
CREATE CUSTOM WEDDING-WORTHY FAVORS
Replace the standard "mint to be" peppermints or packets of Jordan almonds with something that will truly surprise guests. Whether your favorites are Thin Mints® or Trefoils®, you can get a few boxes from your local troop and create small batches for personalized tins or treat boxes. This ensures that every guest goes home with a sweet memory of your day.
THE DARLING OF THE DESSERT TABLE
There’s no need to stop with favors. Use your favorite Girl Scout Cookie as inspiration for tiers of unique cupcakes at the reception, a surprising doughnut table or even your groom's cake flavor! Consult with your favorite baker or pastry chef to create something truly original. Want more inspiration? Take a look at the stylish ideas the Girl Scouts of Greater Atlanta put together on Pinterest.)
DESIGN AN IRRESISTIBLE DISPLAY FOR THE KIDS TABLE
Of course, adults aren’t the only ones who love these trademarked treats. Have some fun with jewel tone accents along the kids’ table to match the memorable boxes. Or, make themed place settings with cookie-shaped escort cards, printed watercolor place mats featuring your favorite cookies and coordinating, pastel dinnerware. Your nieces, nephews and friends will be charmed by your creativity. For once, guests will be trying to get a seat at the kids’ table!

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.
Minimal design meets architectural intention in the Josette, a white strapless rehearsal dress and minimal wedding dress designed for modern brides. This style guide explores how to style a civil ceremony dress with purpose — transforming clean structure into a refined statement for rehearsal dinners, wedding receptions, and intimate wedding receptions.
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.
