Wedding Floral Inspiration from Fleurishes + Krakora Studios

So often, we find fabulous little details that look like they had to have been fairly simple to create, but we haven't the slightest idea where to start. When it comes to cakes, I won't even attempt to pretend that I can do a tenth as well as the professionals - they are just that, after all - professional. And when it comes to floral design? Well let's just say I have a black thumb. But when Andrea from Fleurishes promised an easy... [MORE]

Massachusetts Organic Farm Wedding from Studio Foto

A wedding is a celebration of a very special love. This Massachusetts wedding is not only that, but is a true labor of love. The organic farming couple cultivated the both flowers and food for the big day (how's that for the ultimate DIY?) The dress was made by the bride's mother. The bride's veil had pearls meticulously sewn on by her mother and close friends. The entire celebratory day was held at the farm where this couple pour out so much of themselves. I could swoon for days. Paul from... [MORE]

Contemporary California Wedding from Apertura

Who can pull off a sweet puppy flower girl, dressed head to tail in pink tutu's to match the other flower girls? The same California bride who rocked the most amazing Oscar de la Renta gown on the planet. The same bride who was bold enough to not only adorn her own head with a simply fabulous birdcage veil, but also those of her lucky bridesmaids. The same bride who chose the Walt Disney Concert Hall for her... [MORE]
