Thanks to Mashable, I found these amazing Google parody videos done by Sesame Street. If they don’t make you smile, then you must not have cheeks!

My personal favorite: Cookie Monster

Here is our good friend, Bert, and his search story:

I have to give props to Sesame Street. This isn’t the first time I have featured a brilliant video of theres on Shiny Syndrome and I am sure it wont be the last!

Video Game Wedding Invitations

Carli Lee — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 23:48:52 +0000

Mashable recently featured a couple who share an immense love of video games. They decided that, in lieu of traditional wedding invitations, to create a Mario-inspired video game with bride and groom characters. They then developed BRILLIANT packaging and sent out the game to their friends and family. However, there was one catch! To learn about the details of the wedding, you had to beat the game. Check it out:

This video shows the perspective of someone playing with the bride character. You can also choose to be the groom! It is the same idea as choosing Mario or Luigi in the traditional game.

I think it is so cool that they went with their passions and even developed a “game manual” to go with it! What do you guys think?

New Take on Boutonnieres

Carli Lee — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 00:26:11 +0000

While checking out Hello Lucky’s Blog, I found these adorable, fabric boutonnieres, made by Peppermint Cloud:

I just love it when designers take something relatively average (like a boutonniere) and recreate it by making it out of an unexpected medium. Now, I want to see someone make an entire bridal bouquet like this! You can bet i would use it at my wedding this summer.
