Real Engagement: Andrea + Flaviu

While I’m out in New York with my family, I’m pleased to share with you this adorable engagement session shot in my old stomping grounds. Photographed by Lauren Gabrielle, Andrea and Faviu’s engagement photos take full advantage of the beautiful architecture at the Cloisters (I was almost married there!) and in the West Village. Because [...]

Real Wedding: Phyllis + Greg, Part II

It’s time for the main event of our real wedding feature from Unusually Fine today. As much as I adore the idea of the clambake opening the wedding weekend, the real showstoppers of this wedding are the bride’s hair piece (I’m kind of dying over it) and the birch trees that pop up around the [...]

Real Wedding: Phyllis + Greg, Part I

I’ll be signing off today and taking next week off. Don’t worry, there will be a few preprogrammed posts! Before I leave for vacation, I wanted to share with you a gorgeous wedding photographed by Unusually Fine. I went to college at Rhode Island School of Design, and towards the end of my time there, [...]

Real Wedding: Sara + Dan

Jonathan Hoffner Photography has done it again! I don’t generally put black and whites on the blog, but I had to make an exception this time for some absolute stunners he shot of Sara and Dan’s sweet vintage rustic wedding. The photos of the snow beginning to fall are absolutely magical! From Jonny and Michelle: [...]

Hello, Inspo: Anthropologie Windows

I think everyone feels inspired when they look at Anthropologie displays and windows. The whimsical, imaginative, and innovative designs make great idea starters for fantastical wedding decor, so I figured that today, I’d share some of my favorite windows I’ve seen. My all time favorite was the Spectrum display that Ruthi Auda created for Newport [...]

The Perfect Packaging: Knot and Bow

Alright, this is this is the last packaging supply post for a little while… I promise? Yep, okay, I promise. It’s just so hard not to get excited about Knot and Bow‘s shop, though! A long time favorite of mine, I’ve been dying to come up with an excuse to use their library cards for [...]

All You Need is Love. Love is All You Need.

Like many people, I grew up on the Beatles. How timeless and beloved their music is, I think, very telling of how masterful they were at their art as a group. Thirty years ago today, John Lennon was murdered. It’s strange for me to think that I’ve only existed in a world absent of him, [...]

The Perfect Package: Caramelos

It’s time for more pretty packaging details! A gorgeous shop that just popped up on my radar is Caramelos. They’ve got a fantastic variety of ribbon (isn’t the glitter ribbon to die for?) but they also have amazing millinery accents like mushroom birds and flocked deer. All of their products are incredibly cute. Some of [...]

The Perfect Package: Packagery

So, remember last week when I was on a little bit of a fashion kick? Well, I’m switching gears now and am mildly obsessed with cute packaging products, so expect a few posts on that this week. First up? Adorable picks from Packagery, which would be perfect for any rustic or retro-kitsch wedding. From a [...]

Ten Days of Craftsmas!

A couple of notes for you all: First, over on Somewhere Splendid, there is a new series of DIY projects called the Ten Days of Craftsmas, which launches today (just in time for the holiday season!). My friend Shauna of Shauna Younge Dessert Tables approached me with this crazy idea two weeks before Thanksgiving, and [...]
