My last two honeymoon destinations have boasted beautiful beaches and warm weather so I decided to aim this hot spot at the snow bunny newlyweds and take you all to Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise in Alberta , Canada, which sits on the Canadian Rockies. For the couple interested in hitting the slopes rather than relaxing by the ocean, this could be the perfectr honeymoon destination for you. 
Situated on the edge of the glacier-fed Lake Louise, the Fairmont Chateau offers an abundance of winter sports including downhill and cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, ice skating and dog sledding. After adventurous days, you can relax at the hotel spa or take a sleigh ride with your sweetie to get your fill of romance on this trip. And what is more romantic than cuddling up next to a cozy fireplace on a winter night?
The chateau is a great place to visit in summer months, too, being located directly on the lake where you can kayak, canoe, or hike. In fact, they are holding a summer sale right now for a free night if you book by September 2nd. http://www.fairmont.com/lakelouise/HotelPackages/SpecialOffer/SummerSale.htm?wbc_purpose=Basic&cm_mmc=icppc-_-Branded-CLL%20-%20Chateau%20Lake%20Louise%20-%20Canada%20-%20E-_-google-_-fairmont+chateau+lake+louise&OVMTC=Exact&site=&creative=5249903220&OVKEY=fairmont%20chateau%20lake%20louise&gclid=CP-PkqSW5aMCFQL7agodz2ur4Q has more information on this deal.
Accommodations perfect for newlyweds include the lake view Belvedere Suite, which offers an elegant salon, dining area, powder room and private terrace and bedroom at the top of an amazing spiral staircase. Another option is the lake view Junior Suite in which you can enjoy luxurious fabrics and plush sitting areas where you can take in the view.

Another option to look into are the Fairmont Gold rooms, which are adorned by antique photographs and paintings of the historical Lake Louise while still boasting elegance and luxury. These are the perfect rooms for a mountain getaway experience with cozy fabrics and warm wood decor.
For the couple looking for a cozy getaway on their honeymoon or any other occasion, this is a great place to look into. You can get more information or book a trip at www.fairmont.com/lakelouise/.
Recently, wedding cakes have become a very big part of the wedding planning process. A wedding cake is a focal point in the space where your event is being held, so it is important that it looks good and fits your overall theme. There are many ways to personalize your wedding cake and make it your own.
One thing that we have found that is a super cute accessory to your cake is a custom wedding cake stand. We love, love, love the look of the custom stands on the Raise the Cake website (
I really love small decorative details when it comes to setting a great table. Cake Bunting is a new trend that I have heard about that is a cute little, unique detail to a specific type of event. It is the use of small decorative flags hung from above the cake by small sticks. It is a different but cute detail you can find out more about on 
Homemade cake toppers are also a cute and personal touch. Getting crafty with your wedding day is a joy and a curse at the same time. Alexan Events has everything at our fingertips to help you with the crafty projects (we love them!). These cute wedding cake toppers are instructed on our crafty goddess, Martha Stewart’s, website if you dare try it yourself.

Using tall Manzanita trees on the table gives a natural look to the affair. Adding romance to nature is a wonderful feeling and brings a room depth.
Having tall floral arrangements mixed with shorter, fuller arrangements is also gives great flow to a room. Guests won’t get bored with the look when they have an array of sizes and shapes to look at.
Even bringing in structures and stands to place on the tables gives a stream lined look that we love to utilize. It is strong and sleek added with a touch or romance and softness with the use of flowers.
