Dear Friends,

We've been a bit busy since our last update, but our thoughts haven't been far from matthewmeadstyle.com. On November 7th, go to your news stand and find our own magazine HOLIDAY with Matthew Mead. It’s an exciting, new publication filled with fresh and beautiful holiday ideas with our hallmark "simple style." Turn to our website for companion content featuring secret sources, downloadable templates, and pod casts so that you can try everything we’ve dreamed up for the holiday season.

To sum up what we are all about in a word or two, we’d choose "simple" and "doable." This is as true of planning a wedding as it is of everyday projects. Both Jenny and I feel that a memorable event is more about being creative than about spending money. We were married in our backyard in a simple ceremony followed by a cake and champagne reception. The evening was magical and memorable, and we enjoyed the experience fully.

The ideas in this season of the site recall those memories and provide  imaginative starting places for creating your own special  wedding. From recycled tin can flower favors, to collecting single  pieces of silver plate to give as gifts---we show you how to enjoy the  event, whether you’re the bride and groom or a guest. Experience every  precious nuance of the special day you create and above all...  CELEBRATE!

Best,
Matthew
