Smitten.

Hope everyone is having a lovely day today! I'm just glad it's the weekend! Lots I want to do and accomplish!

I was browsing through my photos and stumbled upon photos I took of one of my best friends, Ana Maria and her now husband, Dan over 2 1/2 years ago when they were newly engaged. They'll be celebrating their 3 year wedding anniversary in February! They met on the job.  Dan swept her off of her feet with a simple movie date. The love they have for each other is so amazing! They are crazily smitten for each other.


Ana Maria and I have known each other since the 2nd grade (right A.M.?)!

How did you meet the love of your life?

Peace Barn Wedding.

Not only is this wedding at the Peace Barn in Bolinas, CA adorable, but I'm absolutely in love with Kiri's dress! I love love love how the dress doesn't just stop at being strapless, the fold is a gorgeous detail to the dress!



Photos for the wedding was captured by Jill Thomas of Jill Thoms Photography. Her photos are so sweet!

Let Them Eat Cake!

There's no rule to how your wedding cake should look like, but it should be cohesive w/ your theme. I've grown to love all white cakes...all white is not just for the modern :)



I love how this cake is slightly quirky, yet so adorable with the roses.




 I love the vintage inspiration on this "sugar carnation" cake




This modern inspiration is so darling!




Both the cake and the dress are gorgeous and look so delicious to eat!

Cake tastings are one of the many things a bride and a groom can do together. Maybe make the very top layer a flavor and/or filling you both love or interchanging the layers between two different flavors/fillings!  Whatever you decide, make sure it's something both you and your hunny will enjoy!

Strike a pose.

Times have been tough in this economy, so we've all had to cut back on many "luxuries" and be mindful of our spending. But here's one place where you won't feel bad about spending your hard earned money on gorgeous designer dresses (real designer dresses)!

A friend introduced me to Rent the Runway website and I was floored at the amount of designer dresses that were available to rent (Christian Siriano, Proenza Schouler, Catherine Malandrino, and more)! I've been to quite a few weddings in the past 3 years (15+ & they're still coming) and I have had to recycle many dresses! No more wondering what you're going to wear at that beach wedding or black tie wedding or dinner party. Rent the Runway is the new go to designer closet at a realistic price for many of us.

Attention brides: RTR also has a Bridal Program where your bridesmaids can try on dresses and rent your dress choice in advance and have the dresses in time for your wedding! Your bridesmaids not only look fabulous, but at a great cost! Tres Chic!





Ready. Set. SHOP!

Dresses from top to bottom: Christian Cota, Masterpiece Dress (rental $200/retail $1,795); Cynthia Vincent, Ladylike Beaded Skirt Dress (rental $50/retail $400); Robert Rodriguez Collection, Cap-sleeved Swirl Mini (rental $75/retail $600); Tibi, Floral Halter Maxi (rental $75/retail $588)
