Succulents for Spring Weddings
After seeing numerous outdoor succulent gardens thriving on our last trip to Southern California and with my happy little potted succulents on the windowsill next to my desk practically swelling in the sunshine, I’m reminded of how wonderfully succulents go with spring wedding floral decor! So sculptural and compact, they make perfect little green favors for your guests to take home, and their dusty colors add interest, texture and dimension to spring floral centerpieces, bouquets […]
Wedding Dessert Tables by Amy Atlas Events
Dessert tables and candy buffets are super fun add-ons to wedding receptions of any size or style. They can be used as alternatives to traditional wedding cake if cake just isn’t your thing, as additional sweets if your sweet tooth is a major priority, or as take home favors to delight your guests on their way out the door. In the last few years they’ve really been gaining popularity, but no one is doing them […]

A Soolip Wedding Recap 2- Kirstie Kelly Couture
This year’s A Soolip Wedding show featured the designs of Kirstie Kelly, an ultra talented LA based designer who creates the Kirstie Kelly Couture collections as well as Kirstie Kelly for Walt Disney’s Fairytale Weddings. We recently met with Kirstie Kelly’s Fashion Director Erin Dallesandro (the amazingly stylish and chic dark haired woman in the photos below) and connected with her like long lost friends. She is wonderful and oh so smart, and we couldn’t […]

Between the three of us we took about a gazillion pictures, lusted after endless amounts of delectable foods and beautiful product designs, and met all sorts of fabulous people- brides and professionals alike. What a day! Get ready for […]
Bridal Shrugs from The English Department
Whenever I’m lucky enough to get down to Portland, OR for a weekend away, I love to stop by The English Department. Owner and designer Elizabeth Dye carries a number of lovely bridal lines as well as designing her own custom pieces. Since I don’t get down there nearly often enough, I was super excited to run across her shop on Etsy where she sells these ridiculously adorable shrugs and boleros just for brides. Some […]

Wedding Cookies from Gumdrop Cookie Shop
Is there anything better than receiving a box of cookies in the mail? That’s right folks, cookies arrived the other day, and we were thrilled to realize that not only are these custom designed sugar cookies stunning to look at, they’re super yummy too! Case in point, Blair called me from the Junebug office with a mouth full of ’em to let me know. As soon as I heard those mumbled words and realized she […]
