If you are just now joining us, Brian and Stella Alesi sent us today’s featured wedding…and I am totally and utterly smitten. This couple is so cute, so in love. The whole affair just seems like a true celebration of love, of life, of happy, happy days…

Just wait until you see the reception that this oh-so-cool couple threw. It’s basically as good as it gets. Stay tuned!

Loving today’s featured wedding. It is making me feel infinitely more happy than I have been lately, thanks to the gross Boston weather. It’s actually reminding me of Summer, of friends and family, of that blissful moment when you realize that life is really, really good.

I first discovered the genius of Hello! Lucky when I was living in San Francisco…the design and letterpress capital (some would argue).  I fell in love with their vintage perspective paired with their fresh, modern colors, typefaces and designs.

Aside from the fab...

We are featuring the loveliest wedding today, sent to us by the wonderfully talented Ingrid Nelson of Myrtle and Marjoram. There is something to subtly beautiful about this particular wedding. Maybe it’s the perfect bride or the sweet, but simple wedding style.  Maybe it’s the sophisticated color palette, paired with the warmth and approachability of the outdoors…

So much more to come!
