If I've said it <a href="http://cravenmaven.com/2010/08/licky-sticky-wedding-treats/">once</a>, I've said it a <a href="http://cravenmaven.com/?s=wedding">thousand</a> times. Despite being a dorky, sci-fi loving gal, I simply LOVE a good wedding. The promise of commitment to one person when you could have whoever is noble and sentimental. It's <a href="http://www.poets.org/viewmedia.php/prmMID/21012">Keat's</a>, it's <a href="http://www.shakespeares-sonnets.com/">Shakespearean</a>, heck, it's <a href="http://www.pinkraygun.com/wp-content/uploads/deannariker.jpg">Troi and Riker!</a> { Amuse me on this one okay? ;) }.

Weddings came to mind this Tuesday due to some rather exciting news from one of my favourite bloggers { give me a mo, I will spill the beans shortly! }. Leading me to this very different, nifty cake topper in the <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/74807099/the-classic-wedding-cake-topper-in-party?ref=sr_gallery_14&ga_search_submit=&ga_search_query=cake+toppers&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_ship_to=US&ga_search_type=handmade&ga_facet=handmade">better of wed</a> etsy store. Priced at $49, this custom fabric and wood name topper is wonderfully texturedwith delicate wood grain and crafty whimsy. I especially love the lowercase font - it's a little bit mod, a little bit cheeky and lots of fun. Adorbs!

And now the big news!!!! ***DRUMROLL*** Sometimes, Craven Maven <a href="http://cravenmaven.com/2011/07/guest-post-summer-pudding-with-coquette-dove/">guest blogger</a> and full time creative vixen Kate Taylor of <a href="http://www.coquetteanddove.co.uk">Coquette and Dove </a>is launching a brand spankin' new wedding themed design mag called <a href="http://reveriemag.com/">Reverie</a>!

It's no secret that I am a huge fan of <a href="http://coquettepaperandpress.bigcartel.com/">Kate's creativity</a>. From good eats, to fashion to design she has a keen eye for what is aesthetically and emotionally RIGHT. Coupled with wedding planner extraordinaire <a href="http://www.foreverandeverevents.com/">Mary Lee Herrington</a>, this magazine promises to be a stimulus to the senses - whether you are already wed, about to be or just looking for inspiration. 

The debut issue goes live in Jan 2012, you can be sure that I will be talking about it the second it hits the webosphere. In the meantime, keep your eyes fixed on the <a href="http://reveriemag.com/the_magazine/">Reverie website. </a>
