jennifer + greg = engaged!

One of our adorable couples, Jennifer + Greg, recently purchased their first house and had the fun idea of having their engagement photos taken in their new home. What a perfect way to capture this exciting time. They couldn't be any cuter and I'm over the top excited for their summer wedding. Congrats you two! xo

Thanks to Holland Photo Arts for the fun photos!

rustic chic

I have a new obsession. Creating inspiration boards. I could literally spend the day dreaming up new and different (vintage charm to sleek and modern) weddings. Obsessed! Below is a "rustic chic" board that I created (with the help of my fab-o assistant, Cara) today. We're loving the muted blue/grey palette and the pancake bar. Yep- a pancake bar... with the fixins!

inspiration

It's been a busy, busy week (and it's only Tuesday)! I was in need of a little break this afternoon so I stopped by a few of my fave blogs. I could spend hours (days, really) admiring all of the lovely inspiration. Below are a few images that made me smile :)

I want that braid!

i heart peonies (and may!)

I love the month of May for so many reasons. The sunshine, my sweet hubby's birthday, my wedding anniversary (4 years on the 20th!), Mother's Day, farmers markets, sundresses, and peonies. Big, fluffy, beautiful peonies! My most favorite flower. There's something about these lush, delicate, romantic blooms that make me so happy. I can't wait for them to be sitting on my kitchen table... I'm counting the days!

j. crew

It's true- I'm obsessed with the Crew. Although my husband doesn't appreciate my addiction, I like to remind him that there are many worse habits. Afterall, he should be glad that my only addiction is beautiful garments from J. Crew! I'm still working on that one :) I love that J. Crew can outfit the whole bridal party (the fellas, too). One of my besties wore a J. Crew wedding gown and she couldn't have been more stunning. No one would have ever guessed that her gown cost less than $700!

For the bride...

For the besties...

For the little ladies...

sjp love

It's Friday (yay!) so I thought I would share a little SJP love... just because! I've always loved this dress. The layers and layers of ruffles are too fabulous for words. I have a bride who is wearing a frilly number that reminded me of SJP's dress. I can't wait to see her on her wedding day! How many of you can remember where Carrie was when she wore this beauty?! Happy weekend!

Let it Snow!

I'm amazed by the snow outside of my window! It's so pretty and couldn't have come at a more perfect time. It was so nice to have a snow day the week before Christmas. Snowmen, baking and present wrapping- such a fun way to spend a Saturday!
