In The Details: Lovely Ruffles

>> Monday, May 23, 2011

Happy Monday everyone.  Did you have a good weekend?  My weekend was nice and relaxing.  As I was thinking about today's post, I kept thinking about ruffles.  I was surprised, given my love of pretty ruffles, that I had yet to talk about this oh so frilly detail.  Ruffles can be easily incorporated in to other aspects of your wedding and not just the dress.  Start with the cake.  Create a lovely ruffled  detail to your cake to give it a bit of whimsy


a little Romance


or maybe a bit of sophistication.







Use your wedding bouquets or reception centerpieces to resemble the ruffles in your dress.  


 


Of course there is the dress.  It is the one area where this pretty detail can shine.  Whether you go with a lovely long dress with a little or a lot of ruffle detail,







or keep it short with plenty of ruffle details is completely up to you and your style.



But don't leave out the rest of your bridal party






Of course you can easily incorporate ruffle details to your shoes, accessories and reception.  Now I will say, I do believe you can have too much of a good thing so pick a few areas of your wedding where this detail can shine and  remember a little goes a long way.

Friday Faves

>> Friday, May 20, 2011

TGIF everyone.  I'm so happy today is Friday.  I hope all you had a lovely week as well.  Today, is all about my favorites for the week and I have a few to share.

First, I am in love with this bag.  It makes me want to fill it with beach gear and just relax for the afternoon.  Sadly, the price is definitely holding me back from making the purchase.



As the weather warms up I've been thinking about adding a few dresses to my closet and have a few favorites that strike my facy.





{dress 1, 2, 3}

If you are traveling this summer, you should get a personalized luggage tag.

Really loving this two-tone sandals



That's it for this week.  I hope you have a marvelous weekend and I'll see you on Monday.

In the Details: A Hint of Color

>> Monday, May 16, 2011

Happy Monday everyone.  I hope you had a wonderful weekend.  I know I have been missing in action since Thursday a few projects kept me busy and away from the blog.  One thing I love in a wedding is when a Bride finds ways to make her day unique to her and the Groom.  Of course one way to make a unique statement is a wedding gown with a little color.





With so many designers creating beautiful colorful gowns, I'm delighted to see more gowns rather than less full of lovely details and color.
 





Whether a wedding gown with a bit of color is or is not your thing, a beautiful gown full of color is a lovely and unique detail that will always provide an unexpected twist to the wedding day.
