Real Wedding { Melaroo and Mr. A }

Look at this gorgeous wedding shot by Christine Farah at the Marvimon! They are the most adorable, relaxed and cool couple. Even their nicknames ( at least that's what I think ) is cool. I could look at their engagement, wedding and reception pictures over and over. The amazing Holly Floral did an awesome job transforming the space with the most d*lsh details. Such wonderful display of pomegranate, kumquats, oranges orchids, poppies, peonies and so much more that I'm probably missing. I love everything about this wedding. I think you will too!

Get ready for some great eye candy!

There are so much more than what you see right here. Go to Christine's blog to see all the yumminess!

A Pocketful of Butterfly Wings

I don't know about you, but there's something about these feathers in a pocket posted on 17 Blocks from Barneys. Maybe it's the way it's placed. But it's kinda magical, like it's ready to take flight. I think this is a great alternative to boutonnieres if you're a bride with feathers in your hair too. Maybe it's just me.

Je t'aime My Beautiful!

A design studio in France is making me want to pack up our studio and live in Paris. The work of My Beautiful is très très d*lsh!

I love this quirky idea of eating at restaurant that has hanging laundry above you. As translated from the restuarant's name, La Corde à Linge, literally means "The Clothes Line" and its where the washer women meet? If you're from France, please do tell me a little more about this place. I'm so curious.

Cozy Rocks

I came across knitalatte's etsy shop and fell in love with her crochet rocks! They're so beautiful in their own quiet and cozy way. These photos that she's selling would warm up any room.

 

Calling All Flower DIYvas!

Many brides on a budget have considered doing their own flowers for their wedding at least once during their planning process (I did!). But most of us ended up frustrated or lost and gave up that idea altogether and hired a professional florist to do what they do best.

If you are one of those brides, fear not, because now there's help! No more second guessing yourself and wandering aimlessly in the flower market, because now you have two extremely knowledgeable floral experts to guide you through the steps on making that option a reality. Christine Saunders of the Spiraled Stem and Dawn Hansen of Lavender Hill have teamed up to offer brides affordable workshops on DIY flowers for your wedding, called Flower DIYvas!

And if you're curious, you can check out their FREE seminar on Wednesday, January 28 at the Anaheim location where you can get a preview demo on some of the things you will learn and practice making at the workshops. For FREE! Go register here! Or if you think you're ready to take on the workshops, you can find the date that's convenient for you. You will find us at "The Fun Stuff" workshops on Wednesday, Jan. 21 in Anaheim and Tuesday, Jan. 27 in Huntington Beach. If you decide to take one of those classes, please find us and say hi!

More Eye Candy - Lincoln Barbour

While posting about my wedding love for Elizabeth Dye, I discovered this amazing photographer - Lincoln Barbour, that I just had to share with to you. For this project he was commissioned by GBD Architects to photograph a series of large scale black & white photographs to be used as large format mural art in The Ardea. The goal of the project was to create classic and iconic black & white fashion imagery that would stand the test of time and create and upscale compliment to the interior design of this modern luxury apartment tower located in Portland, OR’s South Waterfront Neighborhood.

 

I have a new wedding crush

The new dresses that Elizabeth Dye keeps creating are so beautiful! I've been eyeing her dresses for a while now. It would be so divine if I could wear one of these beauties for my wedding day.
