It’s hard to believe that the beautiful pages of Martha Stewart Weddings have been inspiring brides for 15 years now! We had the great pleasure of attending their amazing anniversary party this past Monday night at The Plaza Hotel in New York City.

Ballroom at The Plaza

Many of the wedding industry greats were at the event to celebrate with the Martha Stewart Weddings Team which is a true testament to the magazine’s power and influence.

Here are a few images from the event.  And, in true Martha Stewart Weddings fashion, no detail was overlooked. It was a perfectly planned party!

Thanks for the inspiration. Here’s to the next 15 years!

While standing in the check-out line today I picked up the most recent Martha Stewart Weddings magazine to flip through. The first page I flipped open to I saw the most amazing idea – lace doily envelope liners! I immediately purchased the magazine and raced home to read what Martha’s newest idea was!

These doily envelope liners make the perfect DIY project for your wedding! They look great with a neutral colored invitation, or I thing they would look equally beautiful with a bright colored paper peaking through. I found easy instructions from Martha Stewart Weddings to make these liners.

To make, lay a 9-inch square doily face down, with a corner pointing toward you. Center invitation on top. Fold up bottom point, then side points, and finally the top. Insert into envelope. You can buy doilies in different sizes based on the size of your invitation. I found a 9-inch square butterfly doily from Artifacts Inc. I also found some square paper doilies online here.

I would love to find somewhere that sold lace envelopes! If you know of any let us know!
