Wedding Floral Inspiration from Fleurishes + Krakora Studios

July 7th. 2011 by Mallory | 5 comments

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]


Simple California Wedding from JL Photografia

May 5th. 2011 by Mallory | 3 comments

We absolutely love featuring weddings like this one in sunny California from the overly talented team of JL Photografia. We love all weddings here at the Little Black Book, but when a bride and groom work so hard to create a wedding that just feels right, we go more than a little crazy. The bride planned, designed, and created much of this affair... [MORE]


California Oak Canyon Wedding from Alders Photography

April 26th. 2011 by Mallory | 17 comments

Imagine a wedding so infused with a couple's personality, you feel more like you're meeting the couple, rather than looking at pretty wedding photos. That is what we have for you today. This couple injected so much of themselves into this wedding, it is a perfect representation of who they are. From the hockey puck cake topper to the trail mix buffet, everything is so unique it could only work for two special lovebirds. That being said, the wedding, brought to us by the wonderfully...

Lake Tahoe Beach Wedding from Johnstone Studios

Lake Tahoe seems to be the up and coming hot spot for destination nuptials. When you think about it, it totally makes sense... Tahoe boasts beautiful mountains for pretty winter weddings, and after spending some time with this wedding, we've realized that Lake Tahoe is also home to show stopping beaches. Waterfront brides take note! This beautiful wedding, captured by the talented Johnstone Studios, is the perfect vacation for your... [MORE]


DIY Flower Bracelets

July 7th. 2010 by Abby Larson | 19 comments

One of the other SUPER cute DIY flower projects that we did was the bracelet that Libby's mother wore. A single stem wrapped sweetly around her wrist. It turned out so completely adorable and is a pretty simple, straightforward project to take on. Particularly when it comes to DIY flowers! We have both the pictorial instructions that Justin and Mary captured, as well as the video that Elysium filmed...so there is something for... [MORE]

DIY Project: Mason Jar Vases

March 25th. 2009 by Abby Larson | 17 comments

This next DIY favor project is SO stinking cute...perfect for a picnic inspired affair. Although the bride will be using them as drinking glasses, filled with Sangria (FAB), I also love the idea of filling them with wildflowers for your guests to take home and enjoy. From Chelsea, the crafty bride that designed these favors...These Mason Jar Favors will double as drinking glasses for the guests at my picnic wedding in June. We wanted them to be colorful and match our theme of... [MORE]

Wedding Centerpiece by La Partie Events, IX

March 18th. 2009 by Abby Larson | 8 comments

If I could fly out to LA and give Meg of La Partie Events a hug, I totally would. Although that would probably scare her off. So, instead, I'll just tell her that we loved what she created for us today on SMP. The originality, the thoughtfulness of each design, the fabulous attention to detail and style...it's well, inspiring. To say the least. If you are lucky enough to live in the area and are looking for a planner/designer... [MORE]

If you are just now joining us, you are in for SUCH a treat. The fabulously talented Meg, designer behind La Partie Events, has created a full day of inspirations and wedding centerpieces for us. Using goods that she found at IKEA (I swear, it's not IKEA ad, they just happen to have THE best vases at a reasonable price) and flowers she discovered at the LA flower mart, she designed a series of centerpiece ideas that can just as easily...
