If the DIY projects that we put together for you weren’t enough to inspire, this next feature will most definitely get the wedding excitement brewing. We are so very delighted to introduce the new collection of wedding stationery from the fabulous Mr. Boddington’s Studio in NYC. Everything about this quirky little design studio is charming… their invitations, their website, even their name is catchy. But of course...
This is not so much a DIY project as a really simple idea…using brown bags filled with fruit as either a table number OR as seating cards. Depending on the size of the bag that you buy, you can use these little treats in different ways. Either approach is just a really adorable way to bring a bit of charm to your table. This DIY is for seating cards, but really…it’s super easy to translate this project in lots of different ways.
Please note, we kept our bags without...
Okay! Now on to the pies themselves. This was probably the easiest thing that I have ever done and coming from the world’s worst baker (I swear, I’m not exaggerating)…that really says a lot. I fully admit that I cheated and bought pre-made pie dough. For one round, I made the filling myself but then I discovered that they actually make pre-made pie filling, so you know I jumped right on that bandwagon. Sad, I know. But they turned out so stinking cute, who cares!
We are featuring a handful of our favorite DIY projects from our From Inspiration to Reality Shoot that we did with our Connecticut Vendors a few weeks back…and this one just might be my favorite.
I knew that I wanted to do some homemade pies, inspired by more...

And lucky for us, he is bringing his genius to the tube with some of the most gorgeous, over-the-top weddings and events you’ve ever seen. The minute I laid eyes on Eva Longoria’s RIDICULOUS flowers, I...
I work with a TON of great photographers. Some have been around a while so their skills and perspectives are really honed, really unique. Others are new and are constantly experimenting with different style and ideas. But I don’t think that I’ve had the chance to see the same wedding or space photographed by so many different artists. It’s amazing to me that each photographer behind Jessica Claire’s...
Jessica Claire is great for a couple of reasons. For one, she’s really good at what she does. Two, she’s really generous with her time and her knowledge. And Three, she understands how important the details are in photographing a wedding. Today we are featuring a photography workshop that she held for up and comers and industry pro’s alike, all styled by the INSANELY talented Summer Watkins of
