ROYAL WEDDING ANNIVERSARY


Happy Royal Wedding Anniversary!

Can you believe this was already two years ago? It was so much fun waking up at the crack of dawn and watching this beautiful day unfold.

What's so cool is that even if you weren't at the wedding or in London you really felt like just by watching you were part of a little piece of history.

I love this picture so much, especially because you can see William's smile when he's kissing Kate <3 and now they're having a baby!!!!!


Bridesmaid Monday


Yay!! It's Bridesmaid Monday!

I was driving downtown last weekend and saw a wedding coming out of church! (Did I maybe stop traffic to look...I'd rather not say)

Anyways, the bridesmaid dresses were this beautiful champagne color, I thought they looked so beautiful and it really complimented the bride's ivory colored gown.

It might be a turn off to some people because champagne is too close to ivory but when the bride is pictured with all the bridesmaid, the ivory really stands out from the champagne!

What do you think?

CELEBRITY BRIDE OF THE WEEK: CATHERINE, DUCHESS OF CAMBRIDGE

Anyone who knows me can probably guess if weddings are the number one thing I talk about then Kate Middleton comes in at a very close second.

Monday marks the second wedding anniversary of Kate to Prince William. The wedding was watched by approximately 2 billion people around the world. It was so exciting waking up at 4am and watching hours of coverage before Kate finally emerged in her Alexander McQueen gown. I am obsessed with this dress and thought she looked so stunning and perfect.

OSCAR DE LA RENTA Spring 2014

Here are 2 of my favorite gowns from ODLR Spring 2014 collection!



BRIDESMAID MONDAY

Happy Monday!!!

When picking bridesmaids' bouquets it's great to have a pop of color that matches the gowns but otherwise the colors should be a nice compliment not an exact match.

CELEBRITY BRIDE OF THE WEEK: JESSICA BIEL

Now I know this is a very "out-there" bridal look but I really adore Jessica Biel and thought she looked radiant on her wedding day to Justin Timberlake.

What do you think of Jessica's bridal style?

New bike!!

Yesterday I bought my first grown up bike and I'm so excited! It's a cruiser bike that I got from High Gear Cyclery in Millburn.

I've already gotten great use from it, me and Dave biked through two parks this weekend and made a list of places to bike this summer. Hopefully we can also bike through Washington DC either this summer or next summer :)

Wedding Tips!

Happy Friday!!!!!!!

The weather today is so cold and rainy -- a total 180 from the beautiful sunny days we've been spoiled with this week.

But this weather has inspired my wedding tip for the week and is really applicable to spring/summer weddings...

If you're picking a venue for your wedding because it has a beautiful outdoor space...STOP RIGHT THERE! Make sure before you put down a deposit that the venue is ready for a plan B in case of inclement weather. What happens a lot is that the venue doesn't accomodate for a ceremony inside so if the weather is acting up, they'll arrange for the ceremony to be in the reception space.

Something to think about especially if you're planning a spring or summer wedding! Hope you have a great day :D

Celebrity Bride of the Week: Victoria Beckham

Always known for her fashion forward style, Posh Spice made the ultimate wedding trend with this Vera Wang gown. Her strapless silk ball gown sparked a revolution in bridal style now making strapless gowns the most popular choice for a bride. Kleinfeld's in Manhattan admits that 90% of their gowns are strapless!

Fun fact: Beckham gave birth to her first son four months before the wedding and was actually quite uncomfortable during the wedding!

Happy Friday!

Hope everyone is doing well! So it's finally Friday yay!!!! And that means it's time for some wedding tips!!

If you are looking to save money for your wedding or really any event, consider hosting it on a Friday instead of a Saturday. Events on Fridays are usually much less expensive which is great for anyone on a budget (which is pretty much everyone). Of course, the easiest way to cut costs for your wedding is to minimize the guest list but if that's too difficult think about a Friday wedding instead.

Wedding Cake Wednesday

Okay so I'm definitely stealing this idea from Disney's Fairy Tale Weddings & Honeymoons but here it goes: today and every Wednesday is now Wedding Cake Wednesday starting with this cake:

Classic, beautiful, ornate, delicate, elegant French inspired wedding cake featuring porcelain cake toper, fresh flowers and intricate piping in a palette of lavender, pink, peach, yellow, purple and gold. Won of the most amazing wedding cakes I have ever seen.
