			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We discovered this wonderful resource and think you&#8217;ll find their runners equally unique. The <a href="http://www.originalrunners.com" rel="nofollow"  target="_blank">Original Runner Company</a> makes the world’s first <strong>non-slip fabric aisle runners</strong> for weddings and special events.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.strictlyweddings.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/Original-Wedding-Runners1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3029" title="Original-Wedding-Runners" src="http://www.strictlyweddings.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/Original-Wedding-Runners1.jpg" alt="" width="590" height="738" /></a></p>

<p>According to Julie Goldman from Original Runners, &#8220;unlike the typical white paper aisle runners, Original Runners are real fabric and have an exclusive non-slip foam backing to keep it flat and secure. They are available in 20 colors/prints and can be custom hand painted with the couple’s monogram, floral design or event motif.  We&#8217;ve also gotten the attention from celebrity clients such as Kevin Jonas, Ashlee Simpson and &#8216;Real Housewife&#8217; Bethenny Frankel.&#8221;</p>
<p>The Original Runner Company has expanded their product line to include custom made accessories too. (See photo of custom pillows below).</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>How would our lovely brides have found all the wonderfully different <a href="http://www.strictlyweddings.com/blog/category/wedding-trends/">wedding trends</a> before the Internet? (Ah, the days where print ruled!). Your online wedding resource, <a href="http://www.strictlyweddings.com" rel="nofollow" >StrictlyWeddings.com</a> has found another talented designer. <a href="http://www.loboheme.com" rel="nofollow"  target="_blank"><strong>Lo Boheme</strong></a><strong> specializes in one of a kind and custom accessories for weddings</strong> (and other special events).  Lo Boheme is the wife-husband team of Lauren (Lo) and Josh Christensen based out of a tiny 1920&#8217;s bungalow in San Diego, CA.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.strictlyweddings.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/Loboheme_MikeLarsonInc163.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2994" title="Loboheme_MikeLarsonInc163" src="http://www.strictlyweddings.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/Loboheme_MikeLarsonInc163.jpg" alt="" width="590" height="722" /></a></p>
<p>The Lo Boheme aesthetic is inspired by the details of eras past; whether it be French Bohemianism of the late 1800&#8217;s, the detailed lines of the Art Nouveau movement, or the glamor of Old Hollywood.  It is the delicate feminine sophistication from these times, coupled with Lo&#8217;s modern eye that produce unique yet wearable statement head pieces.</p>
<p>Lo Boheme sprung from Lo&#8217;s own wedding. In search of a unique personal gift for her nine bridesmaids, Lauren created one of a kind hairpieces made from vintage velvet flowers found in boarded up millinery warehouses in France and Germany. These types of creative personal touches flourished throughout Lo and Josh&#8217;s wedding. After rave reviews from guests and vendors, &#8220;Lo Boheme&#8221;  the company was born, although Lo, the little lady with a unique vision and Bohemian spirit had been designing and creating for years!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Brides need look no further for something old and something new with Amanda Heer&#8217;s <a href="http://http://broochbouquets.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow"  target="_blank">Vintage Brooch Bouquets</a>. These exquisite creations are a work of art that any bride would want to add in her wedding.</p>
<p>Amanda, owner of <a href="http://www.fantasyfloraldesigns.com/" rel="nofollow"  target="_blank"><strong>Fantasy Floral Designs</strong></a>, could have never imagined that ten years after her first creative spark to turn her vintage brooch collection into a bouquet, would lead her to where she is at now…handcrafting and selling vintage brooch flower bouquets to brides world-wide! According to Amanda, brides from every country are on the search for brooches, often asking family and friends to contribute. Each bouquet consists of approximately 50 to 60 pins, earrings and pendants &#8211; creating a family heirloom that can be treasured for ever.</p>
<p><em>Many thanks to Amanda for sharing these incredible photos with StrictlyWeddings.com.</em></p>
