Glamorous Nautical

From The Bride…When Josh and I got engaged during the summer of 2014, we didn’t know where to begin with planning. Since we grew up in too very different areas (Josh is from Louisiana and I’m from Connecticut), we thought New York City would be the perfect middle ground for our wedding.

But after lots of searching, it become clear to us that the city lacked something we really wanted on our big day–which was an atmospheric outdoor setting.

At the suggestion of my father, we visited Gurney’s Inn in late September on a beautiful end-of-summer day, and we were instantly hooked. The resort had gorgeous sweeping views of the Atlantic from its decks, making it the perfect setting for our wedding.

Once we locked in our date, we instantly knew what we didn’t want our theme to be. Despite being by the beach, we refused to have a nautical theme—it felt way too expected and boring! Instead, with the help of my brother, we decided to make our wedding theme more about the natural beauty of the beach, using tans, light water colors, beach woods, and pearlescent accents throughout the wedding.

Selecting Gurney’s was a bit of a gamble since the resort was due for renovations with no guarantee of them being completed by our wedding day. In the end, the changes to the resort totally exceeded our expectations, the new Gurney’s felt fresh, modern, and like a whole new resort.

The day of turned out to be a gorgeous early summer day, allowing us to take advantage of all of the resort’s outdoor areas. We took our pictures in the maze of decks across the property, we had our ceremony on the tented upper deck over looking the beach, cocktail hour outside, and a beach bonfire after the reception.

Celebrate the New Year Countdown with Soft Natural Waves

From The Bride…Russ proposed on a Charleston plantation by sitting me on a beautiful live oak branch, tying the ring box to our beloved dog’s collar, and getting down on one knee. Although both of us were born in the Midwest, we fell in love with the South while living briefly in Asheville. Although we moved to LA shortly after our engagement, when it came time to plan the wedding, we knew it would be in the Blue Ridge Mountains.

We wanted our wedding to be elegant yet unfussy with amazing food, Southern charm and stunning natural setting that would need little adornment. We found all of that at gorgeous Lonesome Valley. We were blessed with the most gorgeous spring day, with mountain laurel in full bloom, blue skies, and dramatic Carolina clouds rising over the box canyon.

Planning a wedding is a full-time job and I knew early on I needed help. My amazing mother and mother-in-law took on the brunt of the details with the help of our planner, Elizabeth, whose local contacts and experience was incredibly helpful for us planning from afar. I was determined our wedding would be beautiful but not lavish and I aimed to invest in the things that really mattered to us – food, photography, and a beautiful tent that could accommodate everyone in case it poured rain (but it didn’t, thank goodness!)

I work in the arts as the director of a contemporary art gallery and my husband is an architect, so suffice it to say we had very strong feelings about the design and decor—however translating that into a wedding is not easy and I was lucky enough to find our stylist Sarah Ingram, whose impeccable taste and eye mirrored mine. I trusted her completely; we had a modest budget and she was amazing in helping us invest in details that made the most impact. Our decor was a neutral palette, with pops of grey, soft blue and buttery yellow which felt sophisticated yet understated. My bridesmaids selected their own dresses from Jenny Yoo’s line in various shades of grey and blue.

Finding my dress was a miracle of patience and good luck. I quickly learned that I was not a fan of traditional dresses, nor was I prepared to spend thousands of dollars on my dress. I was on a mission to find something effortless, classic and romantic and I was determined not to spend more than $2,000. After being so disappointed at several shops, I fell in love with the Rebecca Schonoveld separates at the Sentimentalist in Atlanta, the most amazing dress shop. My dress had a tulle skirt that felt like air and a classic, simple bodice that stayed up all night without straps.

Two days before the wedding I found my sparkling caplet from BHLDN and had it overnighted on impulse to the wedding. All my wedding jewelry were sentimental family heirlooms; I wore my beloved Nana’s pearls and my great great grandmother’s vintage diamond watch, my wedding band from the 1930s and was my husband’s late grandmother. My earrings were my something borrowed, vintage diamond and citron drops lent from a very dear friend.

Got NYE on the mind? We sure do and as we bid adieu to 2015 we’re dreaming about which chic hair-do we’ll welcome the New Year with. Thankfully our newest hair tutorial has got us covered and you better bet we’ll be sporting a headful stylish waves once the clock strikes 12 – think Blake Lively’s infamous ‘do meets midnight. Commence the countdown and learn how you can get the look below. Press play!

How to Get Soft Natural Waves

Begin by sectioning off all of your hair except some underneath. Spray hair with light hairspray.

Curl the section of your hair and work you way up section by section continue spraying and curling hair.

Make sure to curl the hair in the front away from your face. Tousle hands through your hair to losen the curls.

Take small section from the front of your hair and twist it towards the back of your head and pin it. Take another section for the front of your hair and pin it in the back. Add a small accessory clip to the twisted section if desired.

New Years Movie Night In

The Shift Creative threw an alternative to a night out on the town to a movie night in for New Years Eve with some of our close friends! This inspiration shoot is surely going to make you want to create some snacks, turn on your favorite flick, and ring in the New Year under the lights! Ally Twitchell captured all the festive inspiration! xoxo Alexis of The Shift Creative

From the small bites to the mocktail, this party has all you’ll need for a fun night in! A party isn’t a party without some fun snacks! Let’s talk about those crostinis! Can you say YUM?! It’s always good to have a variety of food for your guests to nibble on, and these were the perfect addition to our movie night! We also created a S’mores dip for sharing which was perfect for a night outside, snuggled under blankets, and looking at the stars.

Jess Hong created custom popcorn bags with fun phrases like “Popcorn and Chill” and ‘Enjoy the Show” that can definitely be customized for your style and theme! These details really make an intimate party stand out above the rest!

To design a cozy space we layered rugs, pillows, and stools to create an outdoor lounge. For your party, comfort is key and don’t be surprised if you end up sleeping out there!

If you want to stay a little more low key, we made a mocktail that can be easily customized to fit your taste buds. Think ginger beer, fresh pomegranate and cinnamon all set upon a custom wooden tray by Relevant Raw! This was all set up on a bar cart, and served bartender style for a fun, and creative twist to any movie night!

We hope that this inspiration makes you want to have a fun, cozy night in for New Years Eve or any night for that matter!

From the Bride… Our proposal story. We were headed down to SLO because James was going to participate in the Cal Poly triathlon held at Lake Lopez. Earlier in the week, he suggested we make a reservation to go out for a nice dinner Friday night at one of our favorite restaurants in San Luis Obispo, NOVO. We drove down to SLO Friday morning, and checked into our hotel. After settling in, James took off on his bicycle to a local pool to get a quick swim in before the race, while I did some shopping downtown. After browsing through a few stores, I walked into Banana Republic to see if there are any good deals. Then, out of no where, James comes up and taps me on the shoulder! What the heck! I thought he was swimming.

Turned out there was a swim meet at the pool, so he wasn’t able to use it. He had come downtown to find a “nice shirt” to wear to dinner. (Suspicious if you know James and his feelings towards “nice shirts.”) I didn’t question it, and he ended up getting a very nice button up shirt. Shortly after, we met up with our good friend Michelle and her boyfriend, Leland, to watch the Cal Poly men’s basketball team get crushed in the NCAA tournament. Afterwards, we headed back to the hotel. James brought out a wrapped gift and told me that he had found something downtown earlier in the day that he thought I might like, so he had just bought it for me. He also said he saw a store similar to Paper Source (my favorite store) in SLO, so he had them wrap up the present in this really pretty turquoise wrapping paper. But, I wasn’t allowed to open it until dinner. This would seem suspicious, but the box was large and pretty heavy – I actually thought it might be a book of some sort. So, we got dressed up and went to the restaurant.

We got an awesome table at the restaurant, on their deck overlooking the creek. Michelle’s sister, Amanda, happened to be at NOVO also, celebrating her friend’s bachelorette party, and she sent over two glasses of wine! At this point, I was pretty suspicious, thinking she was in on some secret that James had told Michelle, and Michelle had told her. Turns out, she had no idea what was going on, they just had a lot of wine at their table and she was being nice!

We ordered way too much food, had some good wine, and at the end of dinner I was finally allowed to open my present! James had been acting so normal the whole time (which was why I didn’t think he was actually going to propose), but as I was unwrapping the box I could see him squirming around in his chair. By the time I had opened it, he was down on one knee next to me, saying nice words that I was paying absolutely no attention to (sorry James!) and I was looking at a cute picture frame with my ring tied in the middle of it! Soo, I said “yes” and we were standing/hugging/etc. and then realized not a single person in the restaurant had witnessed this… so we sat back down! Eventually, the waitress came over and I asked her to take our picture, which she did, and then proceeded to announce our engagement to the whole restaurant! I’m sure I turned red, but I was too excited to care.

Afterwards, we headed over to Creeky Tiki to have some celebratory drinks with Michelle, Leland, Amanda, and others, then on to Bulls for more drinks. James and I ended the night by walking back to the hotel, stopping along the way for some Taco Bell, like old times. It was a great night!

When it came to planning our wedding, we were looking for an outdoor venue in a beautiful setting in the San Luis Obispo area. Spanish Oaks Ranch met all of our requirements – beautiful trees, rolling hills, nice architecture, plenty of space, indoor and outdoor options, easy parking, etc. Azurae Shults was recommended by several people who said she is the best of the best. Two Cooks wowed us when we went to taste our proposed menu! We chose Photographer, Jen Rodriguez, based on a glowing recommendation from friends, Amy & Luke.

Organic + Colorful Mallorca Wedding Inspiration

From Heather Cook Elliott Photography… Jessie and Austin met in law school, a start to their story that suggests they might be a rather serious couple when in fact the opposite is true. They are fun and funny and manage to make being incredibly stylish look really easy. I think their wedding style says a lot about who they are in their everyday lives and they are the kind of people I love to photograph: they approached their wedding with a sort of no-fuss attitude mixed with boho charm made elegant by the fact they they are, well, really put together people (they are lawyers, after all.) Lake Geneva held up it’s end of the deal too, offering their combined out-of-state and Wisconsin friends and families a delightful place to relax and unwind on a late summer weekend. I love that they married lakeside at the classic Lake Geneva resort that is The Abbey, and followed the “I do’s” up with the first of two cocktail hours (2!) before heading to the stunningly beautiful Yerkes Observatory (and a University of Chicago institution) for bridal party fun. Then the always lovely Riviera Ballroom played host to cocktail hour number 2 and dinner plus a riotous dance party made possible by Chicago area favorite Toast & Jam. And finally I love that Jessie and Austin enjoyed every second of it – enjoyed the tiny moments together and the big moments in front of everyone, the heartfelt hugs and the rousing toasts – every second of everything.

Nope you’re not dreaming, this colorful Mallorca shoot from Ana Lui Photography is the real deal. A bevvy of beauty graced with minimalistic details, this gallery is the ultimate inspiration for the Bride looking for chic organic perfection. It’s the type of natural beauty that we simply can’t get enough of and we’ve got it all waiting in THE VAULT!

From Ana Lui Photography…When Lisa from Isla & Smith called me saying she is flying over to Mallorca and she had booked an amazing villa for the weekend I was the first one on the next plane to Palma!

Inspiration for this shoot was showing the natural beauty of Mallorca’ countryside. We wanted to use only local products, local food and Lisa sourced everything from stunning flowers to beautiful bridal dresses. The villa itself was like a treasure box. In every corner you could find unique pieces of decoration, stunning pear cutlery, chunky wooden chopping boards, artesenial china, Mallorquin straw hats, rugs and endless alleyways of lavender leading all the way to the natural sea water pool made of sand stone.

Our stunning model, Isabelle, had the longest and most gorgeous hair in the world! Our super star hair and makeup stylist, Diva Borrelli, kept the look as natural as possible – we wanted to show the raw, real beauty of Isabelle.

None of the photos are retouched or photoshopped. We kept it all simple and organic. Shot entirely on film, medium format, with Contax 645 and Fuji400H. I really love how fresh, airy and feminine this session is for me. It was a great collaboration between 4 girls in love with nature and being in the moment. We literally listened to Frank Sinatra, ate fresh food and shot the whole day till the sun went down. I would love this shoot to be an inspiration for organic, minimalistic brides but yet quite feminine and nature loving.

From Kt Crabb Photography… Megan and Daniel met casual through friends during their college years and quickly became good friends. Friendship turned to a little something more and soon they were inseparable. Although they met and had a history in Florida their new beginnings started to take place in NY. They truly started a life together there and settled in to call it home sweet home.

In fact, Long Island is more than just a home to these two. It’s a place of history for Megan’s family. Land’s End is the exact spot her parents said “I do.” Illness took Megan’s beloved mom away too soon, but Megan knew immediately that it was the perfect place to honor her mom and celebrate her new life as a Mrs.

The sun came out as the wedding party made their prep for the day. The ceremony was all in place when a surprise cool front decided to make an appearance and bring wind and rain. Quick thinking from Land’s End kept everyone dry as Megan made her walk down the aisle. Soon after, these two danced the night away as they started their journey of forever, hand in hand.

From the Bride… I entered into the wedding world with absolutely no knowledge of top designers, trends or what style I wanted – all I was sure of was a classic vision without any overwhelming glitz or embellishments. I tried on several gowns before I knew that I wanted to go with a form fitting and tailored design.

I decided to take a solo trip to Malinda Macari’s store, Your Dream Bridal, without my mom, in favor of a clear head needed to make a decision on my own. Lucky for me, Malinda’s peaceful boutique provided me with the perfect space to find the gown I would later call my own. My first love about the Anne Barge Collette dress was the color. Being a red-head, champagne was a hue I felt complemented me and my vision for the day. I also loved the structure of the dress, it had that “wow effect” I was looking for without being too flashy. The pleats and buttons were a beautiful addition to a simple gown, which I made even more unique by accessorizing with a retro gold veil and a handmade beaded belt. My mom ended up coming back with me once I knew I had found ‘the dress,’ which ended with the emotional reaction I was hoping for and gave me every sense of confidence in my choice.

As for Michael and me. We met online and swiped right. The old fashioned “Hey, I have a friend I would like to set you up with,” seems to be a thing of the past!

Coincidentally, we only lived one block away from each other in Charlestown, MA. Our relationship went pretty quickly and within nine months, Michael proposed. He was finishing up his MBA and working full time. I planned a weekend getaway in Kennebunkport for his 34th birthday. On our way up we stopped at Nubble Lighthouse in York, ME. He decided to ask me to marry him on his birthday…I was completely shocked! It was such a memorable weekend.

We decided since we were engaged, why wait to get married? We found a venue and set a date within a month and got married three months later! Our wedding date took place on September 11th, 2015. Michael spent much of his life in the Army, fighting for our country in different parts of the world. September 11th has had a lasting impact on all of our lives. Michael and some of his friends in attendance spent multiple years at war as a result of that day. Yet, we chose to marry on this day to also remember it as a day of celebration in the future.
