1 CommentTo Veil or Not To Veil
Posted in: BLOG CATEGORIES, Wedding Fashion, accessories, ceremony, fashion
Several years ago, the thought of not wearing a veil at your wedding was considered crazy. These days, however, some brides are opting to not wear veils at all or to wear a small one for the ceremony and no veil for the reception. I have to say, I’m still a fan of veils, at least for the wedding ceremony. Veils can add drama to wedding pictures and long cathedral length veils are simply stunning when paired with a beautiful wedding gown. For receptions, I do like the stunning hair pieces though. I like the fact that you can get two different looks with the same dress, all from just changing your hair pieces. Below is some inspiration for veils vs. no veil.

I’ve been a fan of ban.do for some time, and their new Black Label collection is definitely no exception. Who wouldn’t love sparkly headpieces accented with large flowers and vintage trims. Below are some of my current favorites.
In addition to their Black Label, Ban.do has also launched Heart, an affordable alternative to their original and Black Label collection!
Ban.do also has belts, corsages and collars in their collection. Be sure and check out their site and blog for whats new!

To most of us brooches are a fashion accessory, adding a little color to a blazer or a little sparkle to an otherwise plain wedding dress. Amanda Heer of Fantasy Floral Designs, had another idea for these lovely vintage pieces: a wedding bouquet. Using pieces from your own collection, or by commissioning Amanda to select them for you, Fantasy Floral will create a one-of-a-kind bouquet for your wedding day. Talk about an heirloom piece from your big day, not to mention incredibly eco-friendly. Check out Fantasy Floral Designs for more lovely inspiration.

1 CommentShoot the Dreamy Dress
Posted in: Fun finds, Wedding Fashion, fashion, photography
I saw these images on Bridal Soup and knew I had to share them with you. Taken by the talented Steve Gerrard, the images are simply stunning, as is the brides dress!! I think its my new favorite.
I also have to say, I absolutely love the title of the Bridal Soup post, “Shoot The Dress”, instead of Trash the Dress. I’ve never been a fan of Trash the Dress sessions so this is a welcome alternative! Kudos to Steve Gerrard. =) See the full post here. -

I love seeing shoes that the brides wear on their wedding day. Perhaps its because of my major shoe obsession, or my love for photography, but I can’t get enough of the “shoe shots” photographers capture. These shots are all by one of my favorite photographers, Victor Sizemore. I love Victor’s way of capturing the shoes; no two shots are styled the same.

3 CommentsBoutonnieres With Personality
Posted in: accessories, fashion, groom talk
I initially saw these absolutely amazing boutonnieres on 100 Layer Cake and knew I had to share them with you. These are by far, some of the most creative boutonnieres I have ever seen. Knowing not all grooms want to wear a flower on their wedding day, floral designer Erin Rosenow has launched her line of completely creative and non-floral boutonnieres, Fritts Rosenow. These adornments are full of style and personality. Definitely check out their website for more stunning creations!
