We Love Cupcakes!

As the cupcake trend becomes more and more popular in place of a traditional cake, EP got really excited when a new cupcake shop opened up close to us in downtown Fort Walton. We took a field trip to Cupcakes by the Beach and LOVED it! Their cupcakes are amazing and they have so many different flavors, so far our favorites are PB&J, Key Lime Pie, and Lavender. We look forward to being able to send some brides their way, and a future filled with field trips to Cupcakes by the Beach!

The Bay House



Yesterday EP had the opportunity to help stage a photo shoot and organize an open house at one of Destin's hottest new wedding venues, The Bay House! Besides having a beautiful view of the bay, the venue features an on-site bridal suite, small catering kitchen and an amazing sunset. It is the perfect setting for any Destin wedding! EP is looking forward to booking lots of fabulous events at this location. Thanks Mike & Nancy Shoults for being such gracious hosts!

Fun Floral Trends

Lately we've spotted some creative alternatives to traditional wedding flowers. Switching out bouquets or centerpieces for these fun options is a great way to personalize the look of your wedding. Not only can this be a fun DIY project, but they also make great keepsakes from your big day. Some of our favorites are pictured below:






Clockwise from upper left: 1. Tissue paper blooms are versatile and can be used for arrangements and almost any decor 2. Paper flowers offer an unlimited variety as you can choose between prints, solids and textures 3. The "Brooch Bouquet" is a great way to incorporate family heirlooms and adds a perfect vintage touch 4. Balsa wood flowers go great with rustic styling, but can easily be updated with modern touches such as bright feathers (All images from Etsy)
