There are so many amazing moments to look forward to when you’re engaged (visiting venues for the first time, deciding on a date, choosing your bridal party, etc.), but one that’s especially standout? When you go shopping for the first time with that ring (or whatever type of special proposal bauble your S.O. surprised you with 😍) on your finger and that new role of fiancé dancing around in your head. You may have already started gathering ideas and inspiration about your wedding day via social media or real wedding content online (hint hint!), but once you start shopping, you can actually start building your vision board for the big day. And there really isn’t a better place to do it than Michaels. We’ve been making real-life wedding magic with the arbiters of all things arts and crafts for years now, and we’re so excited to bring even more Style Me Pretty stamps to the brand’s in-store aisles.
When you shop in a Michaels store, especially as a bride-to-be, you can just feel all the palpable make-it-you, make-it-yours energy from the minute you walk through the doors and start weaving your way through aisles. And that’s what we LOVE about our partnership. All of us are thrilled to see you turn the page in your love story, and we can’t wait to see what personal and signature flourishes you make to your event.
Your wedding day is the main event, of course, but when you visit a place like Michaels, with all of its blank-canvas potential, you might feel inspired to have an engagement party, to go all out with gifts or unique proposal props to make your prospective wedding party smile when you ask [for their participation in your day] and when you thank them [for being supportive through it all], to embrace DIY when it makes sense (and when it’s fun, playful, and non-stressful). It opens a lot of doors, so to speak, when you’re planning something as big as a wedding.
Not every couple has a clear-cut vision of their vows from the beginning—and that’s completely OK. In fact, if you don’t have a particular style (be it romantic, whimsical, classic, rustic, etc.) in mind yet, it’s actually super helpful to be able to shop around and peruse through items for your ceremony and reception first. This way, you can really see what things make your eyes light up and your heart happy. It’s that gravitation and that pull to things like signage, tablescape embellishments like candles, table numbers and place cards, and even cake toppers that can help you refine your aesthetic and give you a solid starting point for design conversations with all of your vendors
Oh! And one last thing… you can count on the collaboration between Style Me Pretty and Michaels to be accessible and within reach. Those hanging installations or statement accessories you’ve been double tapping on the Gram can all be made into reality, affordably, for your big day! So, please, go shopping!!
