calicodaisy + destination wedding

.
I may not get out of South Carolina much lately, but calicodaisy items are getting all sorts of invites to destination weddings lately!  Last week, monogrammed pillow covers and bridal accessories made it to the Bahamas for a wedding week of fun!  Incidentally, that's where I met my husband, but that's another story. 

The event coordinator for this island destination wedding came up with the "wiggle" design for the oversized lumbar pillow covers at the top of the post.  Natural linen and shades of blue, very soothing.  The lumbar pillows were created for a seating area on a boat.

The monogrammed pillow covers were designed in shades of navy and tan, and then a number of accessories were ordered to show up as treats in the new couples' suite each day.  Towels, tote, bridal shoe / lingerie bag.

This is the third wedding pack of items created for spring wedding decor this season.  One more set of lovelies in navy and coral were sent out last week for another destination setting - can't reveal until June!  Navy must be the current wedding color trend.  My stash of navy twill and navy embroidery thread has dwindled fast this month.

Planning custom designed, home dec and accessory items themed for the wedding and reception is so smart really as the items serve a dual purpose:  They augment the wedding theme and then go home with the couple or serve as gifts to friends and family who helped with the wedding as a long lasting and useful memory of the special day!
