March 18th. 2010 by Abby Larson | 8 comments

We’ve been pretty happy with the latest collection of bridesmaids dresses to hit the runways (like these impossibly cute ones from Lela Rose), but we were particularly giddy when we heard that Cynthia Rowley is partnering with Dessy to run a new line of adorable bridesmaids frocks inspired by her always chic style.

Montecito Wedding by Alexandra Kolendrianos, II

March 18th. 2010 by Abby Larson | 22 comments

Alexandra Kolendrianos is behind one of my absolute favorite weddings. And anything that I’ve ever seen come out of her super chic imagination is always heavy on the romance, heavy on the glam. The details are always flawless and what’s more, Alexandra always considers the experience as a whole. She designs so that the flowers compliment the food, which compliments...

Montecito Destination Wedding by Alexandra Kolendrianos

March 18th. 2010 by Abby Larson | 18 comments

When I was planning my own wedding, which feels like decades ago (and man oh man would I love to have a re-do), I had a clear vision of what I wanted. A traditional Boston wedding, with modern touches and simple but chic color palette. But had I taken one look at today’s featured wedding that Alexandra Kolendrianos designed and Megan Sorel photographed, I might have jumped...

From Inspiration to Reality: The Design, II

March 17th. 2010 by Abby Larson | 27 comments

I am officially declaring this the most innovating wedding idea I think I have ever seen. From the wall of butterflies in lieu of a guest book that chewing the cud came up with, to the ridiculously awesome cake that Sugarcoat it Studio designed, the flowers and tablescape that...

From Inspiration to Reality: The Design

March 17th. 2010 by Abby Larson | 32 comments

I’ve been working with Viola at chewing the cud for a long time. She is the talent behind our new logo, our header and so much more. So, although I wasn’t terribly surprised that her From Inspiration to Reality shoot turned out this spectacular, I was still completely and totally blown away. I think I actually cried a little bit. Together with vendors like...

Philadelphia Wedding by Laura Novak

March 16th. 2010 by Abby Larson | 47 comments

I am breaking my strict “exclusivity” policy to show you this darling wedding that has been making me smile all afternoon. Since it included so many of our incredible vendors and since the style is unabashedly lovely, I thought we could overlook our little rule. Just this once. Photographed by the one and only Laura Novak (who is basically one of the best photographers in the world), this is French inspired style with...

These are quite possibly the most spectacular wedding photographs I have ever seen. Breathtaking. Beyond stunning. Captured by Elizabeth Kowal of White Album Weddings, the images (and the beautiful bride) completely blew me away. And to make them even more special, the bride is Elizabeth’s gorgeous daughter. Swoon.
