Yesterday, my lovely and inspiring collaboration wedding shoot was featured on Style Me Pretty! And now I get to share the goodies, finally ;) So today we have part one and tomorrow part two. I worked with a fantastic group of ladies from the Bay Area. You must check out their work and HIRE them for your own wedding! And I’m going to go ahead and call a wedding trend for 2011 – outdoor flea market vintage meets GLAM!

Well hello everyone! The blog crickets are in full force, but that’s what happens when I travel! I depart from Chicago today and fly on over to St. Louis for a fantastic wedding on Saturday…then it’s finally time to head back home to San Francisco. But I just had to share the oh-so fabulous wedding of Lauren and Brandon! If it’s not Lauren’s giddy smiles that win you over, it will for sure be the rainy romance that we experienced that day. Fall was crisp in the air, and the history of their love kept all of us warm and fuzzy. (more…)

AH! Totally screaming over these! I wish more couples used cake stands for their weddings. I understand that a wedding cake feeding over 100 people may not fit on this adorable vintage inspired cake stand by Clara French but maybe consider inviting less people?!

Gorgeous right? St. Louis based couple Marisa & Tony decided to have a destination wedding in my favorite place…San Francisco! Many bay area residents know that the city name of SF lends to many different surrounding regions :) So let me specify, their lovely ceremony took place in the hills of Oakland and reception in the oh-so wonderful Sonoma Valley…come see! (disclaimer – there are TONS of photos:) (more…)

Notice I didn’t use the word ‘budget’ in the title? Don’t fret, I didn’t leave budget friendly info out! The word on the street says Gin is in this year because of it’s complex and versatile flavor. You can make swanky, old school favs like martinis and gimlets or casual sippys like sparkling gin and juice. And by complex, I mean in-depth flavors not hard to make cocktails. With diy trends all over the wedding scene, customizing a crafty cocktail fits right in! (more…)

I don’t know if this post’s inspiration came from the delicious veggie burrito I had last night or what?! Yummy! But the trend reports conquer! 2009 is all about the tangy, spicy, savory, exotic tastiness of your wedding cocktail hors d’oeuvres. So watch out crab cakes and mini burgers – bold sippy soups, chilled tofu, and asian-infused wraps are fighting for the platters carried by the server’s hands! (more…)
