There's really no better way to wrap up a Friday than a flirty dose of Palm Springs fashion. I'm talking a Mod-inspired poolside shoot planned and designed by some of the best in the biz. The creatives of Couture Events styled the swanky Viceroy Hotel behind the scenes, and John Schnack captured...
It's a big weekend. The Kentucky Derby and Cinco de May rolled into just a few, short days... not to mention all the weddings out there! So I'm sure you've got one foot out the door, and I'm not here to stop you. But I do want to hit you with one last dose of pretty that will ensure you get your cutie little booty back here nice and early Monday morning - when we'll be sharing the rest of Lexia Frank Photography's images from this real life...
It's Friday afternoon, the sun is shining and we've got roasted tomatillo salsa on our plates. If that's not reason to celebrate, well, I just don't know what is. I do, however, know for certain that Melissa's fabulous recipe is calling your name. Yep, it's spicy, savoury, celebratory goodness in salsa form, folks. And with that, we bid you the...
Looking for the perfect way to kick off your weekend? Well, you've found it. A Scripps Seaside Forum wedding with a decidedly modern feel and enough personal details to leave a smile on your face that will last until Monday... I promise you. It's the sweet stylings of I Do…Weddings & Events paired with a breathtaking San Diego backdrop and a stunning bride and groom...
My favorite holiday of all time is Cinco de Mayo. So much so, that my husband and I host our own fiesta each and every year that includes more salsa and guac than could ever possibly be consumed, a killer playlist and ever flowing margaritas. It's pure heaven and I'm kicking myself for not turning that love of fiestas into our own wedding day celebration. Now fastforward to this inspiration shoot, which technically is no where near Mexico being Spanish inspired, but it still holds that vibrancy...
I'm beginning to see this more and more often these days. Brides are opting for small, intimate wedding ceremonies with just a handful of people, and then throwing a big ol' bash shortly thereafter to celebrate with the world. It's a fabulous way to keep things personal, stay on budget and still enjoy this huge milestone surrounded by everyone you love. Founder and creative director of Pretty Plum Sugar, Charlotte Hale, and her new...
Vermont is yummy. It's all pretty landscape, fresh air, and an ambiance that just breathes. And through the lens of Dave Robbins Photography's camera, it's perfect. Especially when said lens is pointed at a wedding so elegant. TRUE Event was behind the soiree, so it's no surprise that it's amazing, but somehow I was still shocked at the utter...
In a time where there are no longer hard and fast rules for wedding style and where weddings run the gamut in terms of fashion, locale and overall sense of design; the one thing that still holds true is a day completely infused with a couple's personality will always reign Queen. It shows through in the simplest of details like this Bride walking down the aisle in her mother's wedding dress or a more grand concepts like the citrus theme that was a beautiful nod to the Bride's parent's...
Yep, you read that right. SMP was on Access Hollywood! THE Access Hollywood, as in the one with big, fancy pants celebrities and Billy Bush and Kit Hoover and oh my gosh, I still can't believe it happened! The only downside? It aired in the midst of the Boston bombings so we're thinking that a lot of you didn't get a chance to see it. But not to fret, we have all of the behind the scenes dirt for you today. Including one very dorky...
It's time to talk about stunning nuptials, lovelies. Stunning nuptials with a whole lot of rustic pretty. Because when the talented team of Holman Ranch, Paradise Catering and Danielle Capito Photography join forces, that's what happens. A stop-you-in-your-tracks (+ oh-so-gorgeous) day filled with chevron...
Style is such a beautiful thing, isn't it? Because really, everyone has their own signature - and this couple's signature wedding style is simply unmatched. It's vintage, yet their own special version, with pretty little memories woven into each moment of their big day. Watching it unfold through the images of David Moore Photography is like the most delicious of treats, and you can devour every last bit of their stylish day...
I'm thinking that all Fridays from here on out should simply be coined as "cocktail Fridays" because, well, why the heck not?! To kick off my personal favourite series to date, our dearest Melissa has come up with this mouth-watering recipe for champagne grapefruit mojitos. Yep. I'm pretty sure all that needs to be said at this point is cheers...
I think we've all dreamt of celebrating our nuptials in a dreamy garden-like setting. I mean, let's face it, gardens make for one crazy gorgeous place to kick off your newly married status. And when that setting happens to be the Chicago Botanic Garden planned to perfection by LK Events, it's a whole new level of dreamy. One that plays perfect host to mesmerizing...
This wedding just feels cozy. Cozy in that way that instantly warms your heart and fills your entire being with happy... the kind of happiness that can only come from the sweet simplicity of a Hill Country affair paired with elegant details planned to perfection by Country Sugar Events. From the beautiful DIY florals to the stunning Amsale gown to the gallery of pretty snapped up...
Destination weddings are pure genius to me. I mean, what beats a trip with your nearest and dearest to celebrate your love? I honestly can't think of much, expect maybe having Kimberly Chau Photography on hand to capture every sweet moment of the weekend unfold. These two genius cuties had just such a plan, and the result is...
This shoot? It's three doses of fabulous inspiration all sitting in one oh-so-pretty gallery captured by Brooke Roberts Photography. And really, how can you go wrong with that? Three gorgeous floral designs from English Gardens, three different set ups from ...
When your mother is the owner of Fatima's Bridal in New Bedford, finding the dress of your dreams becomes the easiest part of planning your wedding. Especially when she happens to have custom gown making down to an absolute science. And when this darling bride found the prettiest lace ever in NYC, she knew it was just the fabric she needed to create her dream gown. The result? A seriously gorgeous work of art that shines bright in...
First I fell in love with this Bride's perfectly red lip, then the Groom's yellow socks and their pup's matching bow tie. Then I just realized I love the whole darn thing. Every single snapped up by A Brit & A Blonde made me just want more. So I wound up spending quite a bit of time with this hip city fête in the full gallery, and let me tell you, it...
Before you get your margarita on this weekend, we've got a Cinco De Mayo celebration, Style Me Pretty style here today. And you know what that means... impecable style, gorgeous design, and a love that is more exciting than a whole mariachi band. Ariel Renae Photography captured every subtly festive detail from Modern Vintage Events, and we've put them all into a party of a...
I feel like bridal showers in general have been hit with a bad rep. But let's be honest, silly games, crustless triangle sandwiches and a store-bought fruit plate isn't really anyone's idea of a good time. I'm thinking we need to abolish the stereotypical bridal shower altogether, starting with this one from Jillian Modern. Venturing out to a wine shop with a handful of your favourite lady friends under your arm is one kind of shower I...
