A Cozy Via Quadranno Coffee Shop & Winter Engagement Session in Central Park
Hey there everyone! Just a quick heads up, we're still working out some kinks with the new site design so bear with us, okay? It's gonna look and function beautifully after a few tweaks...I promise!
For now, we have this lovely winter engagement session from NYC to warm you up. Katie and Rich are high school and college sweethearts. But they ended up attending college together in a serendipitous kind of way. The two of them decided not to tell each other ANYTHING about where they wanted to attend college in order not to sway the other person in any direction. They both ended up applying to Click Here to Read More

Obsessed with Mustard
Not gonna lie...I'm kind of obsessed with the color mustard right now. And I'm especially drawn to it mixed with dark and light blueish grays. Seriously obsessed! Of course, I'm sure there was a time...no, I know there was...when I detested the color. But that's what's so great about design, tastes and styles change. And much like fashion, with just a little inspiration and imagination, you can change the colors that fill your home and life in no time at all. What's not to love about that?
Below are some rooms and items that inspire my imagination to soar...

Lindsay + Nicolas’s Lovely Integrity Hills Wedding
Alrighty, today we have a special wedding for you sent to us from photographers Cory + Jackie. Remember last July when we posted Lindsay & Nicolas's engagement session photographed in Downtown Missouri and Stone Hill Winery? Well...today we have their wedding. And what a beautiful wedding it was. Nic and Lindsay wanted to focus on their marriage to each other rather than the wedding itself. And since that is what it's really all about...the day was that much more beautiful. The details they had were simple but very elegant. Lindsay's hand made Etsy bouquet was gorgeous and the complementing Click Here to Read More
A Fantastic Bonnie & Clyde Themed Engagement Shoot
From the moment this engagement session landed in my inbox I've been dying to bring it to you. Yet the photographer in me is so jealous that I didn't get to take these images myself. But...I'm super happy photographer Kelly Lewis from Kelly Is Nice Photography did and that she's sharing them with us here today. The couple is Janeese Palmer and Jason Snelling. They will be getting married in Miami next June. Jason Snelling is a running back for the Atlanta Falcons and the "Bonnie & Clyde" theme was his idea.

From Coast to Coast, A Washington DC Couple Cruises into Marriage in Newport Beach California
Maybe it was the soft lulling as the ship gently crested each wave that approached its bow. Perhaps it was the breeze that moved in and out of the ceremony room overlooking the blue-green water. More than likely, it could have simply been that Matthew & Amanda’s families were the warmest, sweetest people Session Nine Photographers had ever met. It could’ve been many a reason that the day Matthew & Amanda had waited for for many months was, well…just perfect. They had come from Washington DC, clear across the country to Newport Beach, California to start a new journey together. Their Click Here to Read More

I have an extra cute tutorial today that I know you're just going to love! This beaded bracelet is super easy to make and ever so fun to wear.

Leather or suede cording
Needle (needs to be strong enough to puncture and stand up against your leather or suede)
Matching Thread
Scissors
Beads
Thimble

A Lovely Old Sugarmill Engagement Session
Chloe and Scot first met through mutual friends in the Sacramento State Ski and Snowboard Club over 4 years ago. Eventually, their friendship blossomed and the two began dating in the fall of 2009.

As time passed the two were inseparable and in love. And soon Scot set out to ask Chloe to marry him. It was a Wednesday night and Chloe was getting off of work a little late.

Pretty Miss-Matched & Different Colored Bridesmaids Dresses at This Beautiful 7F Lodge Wedding
Chelsea and Andy's wedding, designed by Country Sugar Events and photographed by Jackson Wright Photography, was held at 7F Lodge in College Station, Texas on April 2, 2011. I love the different colors and styles chosen for Chelsea's bridesmaids dresses as even thought they are all different, the colors and styles still coordinate and compliment each other very well. And of course Andy and his groomsmen all look dapper and fun in their suspenders and very stylish bow ties. All in all this wedding was a definite hit!
