This afternoon we are all about travel inspired weddings. And when we saw this one, photographed by the incredible Robert and Kathleen Trenske, our heart did a little pitter patter. It's just so unbelievably romantic. Seriously makes me want to swoop my husband away for an incredible vacation, a trip to Paris, a weekend of kisses, old movies and really great champagne.

These luggage tag place cards were sent to us by the fabulous team at Table 6 Productions. Too, too cute.
I completely heart these next details. The first, suitcases, were also...
I am not much for themes when it comes to weddings. I am not much for themes when it comes to anything. BUT, there is the rare exception to the rule in my book of all things great...travel. I've started to see weddings that focus on travel and long distance loves start to pop up and there is just something so romantic about the idea.
We have a gorgeous travel themed affair coming up in a bit, but before we get to it, I wanted to share some fun travel inspired details that I've found...

Through June 30, the girls at Wiley Valentine are giving...
I feel like I have been hiding under a rock for not knowing all about the gorgeousness that is Mr. Larkin. Spotted over on Bliss, I am head over heels for their eco-chic, totally gorgeous designs. This goddess dress, embellished with recycled vintage metal paillettes, is from the 1930s and it just might be the best dress I have ever seen. See more...

So, speaking of the fabulous Karen Mordechai. together with the equally fabulous personal chef, Casey Solomon, the girls have launched a brand new adventure called Sunday Suppers that I am completely smitten with. It isn't exactly wedding related, but it is HUGELY inspiring.
Here is a little summary from Karen.
There are few designers that can compete with the complete fabulousness that is Amy Atlas. Her dessert buffets are becoming the standard to which everyone looks to for inspiraiton...with details that will make any critic give up a few spirit sprinkles. In a word, she is amazing. So of course, when Amy sent me her latest masterpiece, I jumped up and down like a little girl in a candy store. Literally.

Thank you so very much to Youn and Nathan for sharing their gorgeous day with us. And of course, to the incredibly talented Ken Luallen the photographs that have made our heart skip a beat!
A last bit from Ken...Youn and Nathan's reception decor created an intimate atmosphere, brought on largely by fuchsia and purple paper globes draped above the outdoor patio, its...
There is something so refreshing about today's affair. Not sure if it's the pretty DIY touches or the sweet approachable style, with hints of whimsy tucked in every corner. Whatever it is, I can't get enough!
From the fabulous Ken Luallen...Not inclined to be oppressively formal, Youn made sure she and her bridesmaids had fashionable flip-flops (pink and purple, of course) available to relax their feet as needed throughout...
