The Wedding Collection

Did any­one else actu­ally watch Project Runway this sea­son? I still love it just as much, but there’s been very lit­tle fan­fare since the sea­son started. In any case, Carol Hannah, one of the final three con­tes­tants, is now sell­ing a few styles from her wed­ding col­lec­tion on etsy. And the dresses are exactly what I would expect […]

An Urban Outfitters Find

When it comes to dan­gly vs. stud ear­rings, I’m much more of a stud kind of girl, so I’m always on the look­out for new, cute ones. And the other day I noticed Urban Outfitters has a ton of vintage-inspired, and totally afford­able, options that could also be great for a wed­ding. I def­i­nitely may have to take advan­tage of […]

Invitation du Jour

Despite the fact that I am incred­i­bly tired of Rosewood, I love the col­or­ful, psy­che­delic design of this invi­ta­tion by Antony Wilcock.

Invitation du Jour

This invi­ta­tion is right up my alley  —  bold and col­or­ful with a touch of whimsy. How cute are those child­hood pictures?

Invitation du Jour

I’m really lov­ing the unusual lay­out and details  —  love the pur­ple inte­rior  —  of this design by Another Monkey.

Katie Jane Parker is My Hero

Sometimes the gen­eros­ity and kind­ness of peo­ple who I’ve met (vir­tu­ally, any­way) through one blog or another, blows me away. When Katie, a tal­ented phở­tog­ra­pher and one of my loyal read­ers, read about my photography/wedding show débâ­cle, she gen­er­ously offered to do a com­pli­men­tary engage­ment ses­sion for us. I mean, how cool is that? We of course took […]

The Week in Weddings

Another install­ment of my favorite images from the past week. (As usual, click on the image to get to the orig­i­nal source.)

Invitation du Jour

This invi­ta­tion, designed by Jacob McMurray, was cre­ated with both a travel theme and a small bud­get in mind. You can see a few more shots right here.

Third Time’s a Charm

If you’ve been read­ing this blog for any­thing length of time, you’ll know that in between the invi­ta­tions and the fun and pretty things, we’ve had quite a few ups and downs through­out our plan­ning process. Well, recently we’ve had quite a few more downs than ups, which I won’t get into. So after way too many unnecessary […]
