I'm a classic girl at heart when it comes to weddings and to me, there's nothing more timeless than a day decked out purely in black and white.

I'm convinced that (even on a rainy day) this good ol' combo does the trick. See more...

As we pack up the crystal coupes and clean up all the tinsel from this year's holiday festivities, I'm betting some of you are donning a sparkly new gem that will most definitely NOT be packed away. That's right, the bubbly wasn't the only thing being popped this year—hooray! Now that you're engaged, it's time to start thinking about that e-sesh. Not quite sure you want to do one? Just have a peek at...
Whether it’s over FaceTime, in-person, or writing in an all-caps text message, there are few phrases more exciting than hearing “OMG, I’m engaged" from your BFF seconds after the question (and hopefully a bottle of champagne) has been popped. Chances are you’ll feel like you just got engaged too, finding yourself shedding happy tears, jumping up and down in pure excitement, and perhaps even wondering what you should plan first for the upcoming wedding. As a professional...
Ladies, do you want to get in shape and look amazing for your wedding? Of course you do!
