Destination Wedding by James Abel

*Update...I just got some additional details from James Abel, the event planner for this gorgeous weddings, that I've updated in the comments section!

Wedding Inspiration Board

I thought that this inspiration board, created by one of our readers, was absolutely gorgeous...so "right now" but in that classic, forever beautiful kind of way...

I love the infusion of crystal into this palette. It makes the entire look sparkle. I would encourage the bride to find little ways to sneak in a bit of glitz.

I was so flattered, as Style Me Pretty is just a baby in this industry! Well, yesterday morning (at the crack of dawn I might add), my interview aired on Lifetime! It's my first on-camera interview, so it was a big deal for me!
