Bouquet Love!

I love how this bouquet combines real flowers and vintage pins to create a really unique look.  Its a great way to incorporate a wedding color that doesn't usually occur in flowers!
Love and Lavender

Real Wedding: Margaret & Taylor's Fairytale Wedding

Check out this beautiful wedding, it reminds me of a real life fairytale... complete with horse and carriage!  The blush and gray color palette is one of my favorites right now.  I love the soft romantic portraits KJImages captured.

Inspiration 217: Tangerine

During the contest I got a lot of great requests for color palettes, including this one.  Someone suggested an orange and yellow board mixed with gray, since I've done so many gray and yellow boards I went with more of an orange and gray board with pops of yellow.

Real Wedding: Natasha & John's Berry and Cherry Beach Wedding

Jillian Modern Photography sent over this truly gorgeous wedding recently!  I love the color palette they chose for their beach wedding and the ceremony set up is really beautiful.  There are so many great pictures I had a hard time narrowing down which to share with you!  Jillian also sent over some information about the wedding from Natasha and this is what she had to say about her wedding day:

"Our colors were "Berry & Cherry" (pink and darker pink), and my ladies looked gorgeous in their berry dresses (J Crew Bridal Collection) and monochromatic bouquets. John veto'd pink on the guys, but they wore gray tuxes (Calvin Klein) to keep things dressy, but not overbearing on the beach. Our flower girl, Ella, looked adorable walking down the aisle with my nephew, Matthew. My little cousins were also super-cute in their gray suits (and they liked their pink ties). We did allow our dads to wear their black suits.. especially my dad since he married us.


We wanted to keep the deco simple and organic to not take away from the natural beauty of a November afternoon Malibu beach day. But, we married under a white canopy that had crystals from vintage chandeliers hanging from the back (they beautifully caught the sunlight).

We chose The Sunset, because we'd had wonderful meals there on prior occasions and it has an unbeatable view. Also, the draped ceilings created a beautiful backdrop to any theme.
Our guests were greeted with Bellinis for the cocktail hour and had their choice of filet, barramundi, or butternut squash ravioli. Dessert was a hit with 3 flavors of mini cupcakes and 3 flavors of french macarons.. And, John was pleasantly surprised by his Bengals-themed grooms cake (I'm from the South, after all ;-). We LOVED our custom cake topper that was fashioned off our Nintendo Mii characters (we're pretty big Rock Band fans).


About half of our guests flew in for our wedding and stayed at Hotel Angeleno. Upon arrival, the received welcome beach bags filled with Neutrogena products, magazines, and a welcome letter of fun things to do in the area. After the wedding, we sent our guests off with beach bags monogrammed with our "wedding logo" (I'm in Marketing.. so it *had* to be branded!) and filled with spanish wedding cookies for luck and fortune. 

Our DJ was a friend of the family who is now a big time Hollywood DJ.. she played great tunes for every generation. We might be a bit biased, but think (hope!) everyone had an amazing time.

Inspiration 212: Gray & Coral

This board was inspired by the pretty cake featured in it!  Coral has kind of stolen my heart, and for this board I paired it with soft gray.  I just can't resist saying how beautiful this color palette truly is!

Inspiration 210: Bright Purple and Yellow

I've been on a kind of "sweet and simple" kick lately!  When I saw this wedding on Green Wedding Shoes I knew I wanted to make a yellow and shades of purple board.  I love the array of purples and how they "go" together without looking wild.

Inspiration 209: Cheery Cherry

I feel like I have been doing a ton of blue, pink and aqua boards so I wanted to do a bright red summery board to mix things up.  For this board I paired cherry red and gray with touches of white.  I like the idea of everyone being in gray with just red accessories....  that would be really pretty and unique!

Alternative Wednesday #19: Skirts for Bridesmaids!

If you want to give your  bridesmaids a modern look that they can wear again (and probably again and again and again...)-- dress them in stylish skirts!  It is also an affordable option with endless choices as far as colors, patterns and styles.  You can create a fun and flirty look, a classy look or a preppy look... the sky's the limit!

Inspiration 205: Bold Blue and Gray Wedding

I just realized that I've done a lot of gray and yellow and gray and pink boards but I haven't done any, or at least only very few, boards that paired blue and gray.  So I decided one definitely needed to happen!  For this board I combined bold cobalt blue with a slate gray and a few hints of apple green.

Inspiration 204: Spring Blush

Another board inspired by a bouquet!  I am seriously so madly in love with the bouquet featured in this board.  From the bouquet I pulled the blush, light sage and gray color palette.  I can see this board come to life as a simple, classic spring wedding.

Engagement Inspiration: Meagan & Jared's Stylish and Fun Engagement Shoot

I love this couple's outfit choices!  Meagan has two very stylish looks going on (Jared's mom made the yellow dress!) and Jared is just as well dressed.  This shoot really shows how all you need is an open field and a fun couple to come out with some amazing pictures.  Check out some of my favorite shots submitted by Tegyn Friedman Photography:
