Sparkly Gold Vintage California Glam Wedding Part Two

From the gorgeous blooms created by Fireworks & Perfume to the lighted heart display near the glamorous gold and cream cake, to unique venue and the stunning images The Weaver House captured, this wedding captured everything the Kelly and Patrick wanted and more!

continued from part one…

From the bride:

Things we collected and style choices

With my mom’s help, I started collecting vintage napkin rings with brass bows, hobnail perfume bottles and San Francisco post cards (for the table numbers) soon after our wedding date was set. The hobnail pieces along with gold mercury glass votives and vintage green glass vases became the centerpieces filled with peonies, dahlias and anemones.

For our color palette, we started with lots of black and white, but the key word for our wedding was “gold.” A minimalist at heart, I was worried our choices would be gold overload, but in the end the reflective gold touches were just right and the rooms seemed to glow with warmth. From there, we incorporated touches of green with the invitation, vases, vintage cake stands and tassel garlands. With this neutral color pallet as a base, I decided to let Fireworks and Perfume work their design magic and take the color scheme in whatever direction the flowers beckoned.

It the week leading up to the wedding, we spent time with both of our families at my parents’ house, painting votives, assembling programs and putting Mexican wedding cookies into clear cube boxes for favors. My aunt whipped up a batch of her famous divinity candy and my bridesmaid baked some beautiful little scones and toffee to accompany the old fashioned Miette princess cake and other treats on the sweet table. My dad and brother made a wooden directional sign to honor some of our out-of-town guests and my mom created the extra long foil-pressed burlap runners for the king’s tables at the reception in between altering bridesmaids dresses.

Handcrafted projects

My favorite labors of love were the invitations and the drawing projects. A centerpiece of the wedding was the welcome sign. My aunt had collected various old vintage mirrors and turned them into blank chalkboard canvases for me to paint the same font used on our invitation. I also had dreamed of asking Jolly Edition to customize one of their amazing couple portraits for us, but unfortunately our budget did not allow for it. Instead, their whimsical, mid-century style was my inspiration for my own painting of us in our wedding attire. My side of the painting was kept hidden from my fiance until our wedding day to make sure my dress would be a surprise to him when I walked down the aisle and after the ceremony the portrait was added to our display of family wedding photos.

The invitation design was a bold calligraphy from A Printable Press letterpressed by the Mercurio Brothers in black ink on extra-thick ivory paper with a painted gold edge. To finish the look, I used antique gold envelopes from Paper Source and painstakingly created envelope liners from a gorgeous green floral wrapping paper from Rifle Paper Co. The stenciling and cutting took hours longer than I had anticipated, but I loved the finished product. Instead of gold, I used brown Kraft paper envelopes for the RSVPs but lined them all in the same floral paper. I also hand painted a directional map, scanned it and shrunk it down for inclusion and tied the whole ensemble together with gold and ivory bakers twine before sending these off with Audrey Hepburn and Cary Grant stamps. It was the perfect combination of glam and distressed to match our venue.

Another favorite project was the selection of my husband’s tie. Originally, he wanted to wear a long necktie with his tuxedo and I thought had found him the perfect one – a John Varvatos black tie, but with tiny dots that were made with individual stitches of ivory thread – the perfect combination of glam and rustic. However, as we approached the wedding, he decided a bow tie was more fitting for the occasion. Luckily, rather than starting the search for a tie over again, I found Beau Ties, Ltd., a Vermont company that specializes in converting long ties into bow ties. We sent off his long tie in the mail and anxiously awaited it’s return. The end result was one-of-a-kind perfection!

What we loved and special moments we’ll remember forever

In the end, it was more lovely than we had hoped: we cried tears of joy during our vows, feasted like organic Californian royalty, and danced the night away with our friends and family from around the country (in broad daylight, of course). One of my favorite moments of the day was my father ending his toast by introducing the mariachi band as a surprise for my new husband and his family – just as my late grandfather had done at my parents’ wedding 35 years before. The band entered the dining room performing “Cucurrucucu Paloma,” a song featured in the movie The Five-Year Engagement which had become a favorite for us during our own engagement. Later that night, my grandmother hugged me and said that my grandfather would have loved the surprise. We’re so thankful that our amazing photographers and videographer truly captured the warm glow of the day and our moments and details (large and small) so magically because it went by so quickly. We still talk about how we wish we could go back and live that day again; the photos and and video (plus all that hobnail glass we ended up with!) let us get pretty close.

If you didn’t see part one, be sure to check it out!

Oh…and here’s their sweet video by Landshark to view as well!

Sparkly Gold Vintage California Glam Wedding Part One

I love it when I feature a couple’s engagement session, then a year or so later their gorgeous wedding lands in my inbox as well. How fantastic is that? You can see Kelly and Patrick’s engagement session here.

The bride and groom live in Washington DC, but they wanted to tie the knot in San Francisco around the summer solstice where they and their guests could experience the beautiful city and some possible sunny weather.

Luckily that’s exactly what they got…along with these fabulous images by The Weaver House, gorgeous flowers from Fireworks & Perfume, and style for miles and miles. So much so, I had to break it up into two posts. So here’s Kelly and Patrick’s sparkly gold vintage California glam wedding part one. Be sure to see part two a little later today!

From the bride:

How They Met

My husband and I met in the one of the least romantic ways possible, in a class for work, but even in that setting we were both smitten and knew life would never be the same again. A few years later, he proposed under a tree at our favorite little Virginia winery and the planning began!

Where To Have The Wedding?

My husband is from Massachusetts, I’m from California, we both live and work in Washington, DC and have friends and family scattered across the country so while it may have made sense to say our vows in a number of places, we were both excited to get married near San Francisco around the summer solstice. The date ensured we’d have a good chance for beautiful, sunny weather, but also meant we’d be dancing at our reception in broad daylight! It also happened to be the night of the “super moon” which left our guests with an amazing going-away visual as they departed our little affair by the Bay that night.

Style Decisions

Somehow, the first decision I made in the planning process were my gold glitter Kate Spade slingbacks and the gold sheath dresses for the bridesmaids. I learned along the way that attempting to plan an entire wedding around these accents may have made life more difficult than it needed to be when it came to choosing the venue, my dress, and other major design elements. My organza and tulle trumpet dress was ultimately the perfect dress for me, but along the way I actually felt compelled to rule out gowns I loved because they didn’t sync with the the shoes or the bridesmaids dresses – a constraint no bride needs.

Wedding Theme

Style-wise, we were torn between a glamorous mid-century affair and a rustic California Mission / Mexican destination wedding. After some brainstorming with my then-fiance, we found a way to merge the two concepts into what we half-jokingly referred to as “Vintage California Glam”. Without wanting to delve too heavily into a theme, we like to think our wedding ended up reminiscent of a swanky party from the 1960s, but distressed by the passage of time. This sort of “party-that-time-forgot” concept allowed us to merge the bridesmaids’ dresses, slim-fit black suits and narrow ties on the groomsmen, our vintage hobnail glass collection, vintage San Francisco postcards as table numbers along with a surprise mariachi band, local California-centric foods prepared by Katie Powers Catering, and all in one of the most beautiful locations in the world in the hills near the Golden Gate Bridge. Our signature cocktails said it all; we served both the classic French 75 and a cucumber and jalapeno margarita.

Why You Should Never Feature A Product Post Without Getting Paid

There’s some dirty business that’s been happening in the blogging world. And while I’m definitely not the first to bring it up, I can’t NOT talk about it any longer.

Today’s Fab You BIZ post focuses on why you should never feature a product post without getting paid.

If you’re a blogger at any stage, like me I’m sure you get tons of email pitches to feature products on your site. Oh let’s be honest, it’s more like a hundred or so of these kinds of emails that land in my inbox everyday. And while you might think, “Wow, that’s great…must be nice to have so much business just come to you!”, it’s not really what you think.

Always get paid for sponsored posts - see more at http://fabyoubliss.com

Image via DPAGES

Most pitches go something like this:

Hi (Insert Blogger’s Name),

I really like how you’ve presented your site and enjoyed reading your recent post (Insert Name of Recent Post). I think our markets align perfectly so I’d like you to feature (such and such product) which I think would benefit your readers tremendously.

Please let me know when you will feature it as we’d really like to work with you.

Best Regards,

Product Pitcher

Usually pitch emails are much longer, but I’ve shortened this sample to spare you the pain.

When you first start blogging and you get these emails, you think, “jackpot!” Especially if the product happens to be something you’d really like to feature or from a company it would thrill you to partner with.

But after several years of blogging you realize that most of the time, the people that send these emails are just looking for free advertising.

What they don’t understand is blogging about anything is hard work. It doesn’t matter how much you as a blogger love what you do, creating a professional sponsored post in your own voice that won’t bore your readers with the sound of a used car sales pitch takes time.

I love it when companies say, “But we’ve done all the work already, all you have to do is post it.” Really? Saying that is just as bad as if I walked into a contractor’s office and said, “Look, I want you to build a house just like this”, while handing them a picture of a house image I pulled out of a magazine. “Can you build it for me for free since I brought you the picture?”

Sounds stupid doesn’t it? But that’s exactly what it’s like when PR companies ask a blogger to promote their products for free.

If you’re a blogger, you know it takes time to write a professional sponsored post. But not only that, there are all kinds of other reasons you as a blogger should get paid what you want for sponsored posts.

1. It’s your blog, period!
2. You’ve built the readership and following companies clearly want access to.
3. Your readers trust your opinion and to companies wanting to promote their products, that commodity is more precious than gold.

So…to the companies who pitch us to promote your multi-million dollar company, yet you say you don’t have the budget to pay us…get with it.

Blogging is a business just like anything else. The owner of a billboard on the side of a busy highway would laugh you off if you told them you couldn’t pay them. Same goes for us. And in some cases, our traffic might be higher than that busy highway. So, you’re missing out!

Back to those pitch emails. The number one thing I can tell you to do with them is to always respond professionally with your media kit, (how much you charge for advertising and product posts, social media shout outs, etc.) And never, ever…I repeat, NEVER, promote a product for free.

Only on rare occasions should you write about something in exchange for a product. What this means is, if the item the pitching company wants to trade you for is equal to or of greater value than what you charge for a regular sponsored post, and if writing the post would fit your target audience, by all means, accept the trade.

Also, if you really want to establish a relationship with a brand and you’re sure doing a non-compensated post will get you where you want to be, do what you have to do.

For me, compensated sponsored posts are a must. The only trades I accept are press trips where the company pays for me to travel to their destination in exchange for an honest review about the experience.

Believe it or not, there are lots of companies who try to get me to write about their products by saying they’ll send me a couple bottles of nail polish or box of greeting cards in exchange for a post.

Seriously? A $20 box of cards or nail polish worth $10, that’s insulting. C’mon PR people, be a little more respectful.

This is where you as a fellow blogger come in. Obviously PR people and pitching companies are still trying to get bloggers to agree to these insulting arrangements. And for some crazy reason, bloggers out there must be falling for it.

Why? You’re worth so much more! Offering non-compensated posts is only setting a precedent that’s hurting the entire industry.

Even if you’ve just started blogging, companies need to know that compensated sponsored posts are how it happens.

If everyone starts charging what their blog is worth, soon enough this dirty business will be no more!

Thanks for stopping by!

Posh and Lively Film Engagement Inspiration Shoot

There’s just something about film photography that I love. I’m guessing many people love it for the same reasons I do. Maybe it’s the soft ambiance or the lovely neutral quality. Whatever it is I adore it!

Some of the best film photography I’m attracted to has the lightness of whipped butter. You know what I mean? Where everything looks creamy and soft?

Today’s posh and lively film engagement inspiration shoot, shot by Matoli Keely Photography, fits my likes in film photography beautifully. Nerissa & Rich are a sweet couple who were friends for a long time before starting to date. And while they’re not officially engaged, yet…they offered to model for this shoot to show how lovely it is when true love shines through!

Introducing PomPon A Chic New Collection From Plum Pretty Sugar

Sponsored Post

One of my most favorite feelings is the luxurious sensation of wearing something soft and feminine. No matter what day it is or where I have to be, (or not be), the minute I put something lovely on…I instantly feel pretty. You know what I mean, right?

So when I discovered Plum Pretty Sugar and their feminine collections of whisper-soft fabrics in enchanting patterns and garden-inspired palettes, I knew I had found my own pretty heaven.

Introducing PomPon by Plum Pretty Sugar - see more at http://fabyoubliss.com

I haven’t written many products posts because I only want to promote items I believe in 100%. To be able to personally attest to anything I share here is an absolute must. This means when I write about something, you can be sure I myself would buy and happily wear or use it!

In case you’re not familiar with Plum Pretty Sugar, they were founded in 2009 as a line of apparel, accessories and home décor products inspired by a relaxed, feminine and effortless way of living.

With four other beautiful collections, – Plum Pretty Sugar Signature Collection, Plum Pretty Sugar for BHLDN, Castelbel & Trumpet, and Lilli Tru – today I’m thrilled to help announce their delightful new line of classic geometric prints in chic shapes and feminine silhouettes, topped with tassels and a flirtatious touch of French.

So without further ado…introducing PomPon a chic new collection from Plum Pretty Sugar.

The Boyfriend Shirts

Inspired by the comfort of wearing your boyfriend’s shirt, this silhouette is a refreshing take on a borrowed-from-the-boys classic. Part nightshirt, part robe and part cover-up, this piece goes from lounging to getting ready to out by the pool with a quick change of accessories.

These mix and match patterns for brides and bridesmaids with a button up front to make getting ready for the big day and beyond easy and pretty. Just think how cute your bridal party getting ready shots will be with an assortment of these pretties!

Even better, you can wear them again and again after the wedding. Truly!

Long Skirts with The Simone Tank

There is nothing more flattering than a classic skirt. The Cloe skirt creates an elegant and statuesque silhouette that can be dressed up or dressed down for day to day wear or for any occasion. A take on the party skirt, this piece can be mixed and matched and is both fun and beautifully feminine.

These skirts are perfect for engagement parties or the night before the wedding, or just to wear out and about. And you can wear them again and again. They can also make great bridesmaids gifts along with a matching robe to get ready in!

The white tank is also available in the collection. The Simone Tank is a smooth and flowy top that can be comfortably worn with pajama bottoms or tucked into jeans or a skirt. It’s the perfect necessity for any closet!

Lilou Short Robe

A short robe should be a must in any woman’s collection of lounge wear, especially in the warmer months when you need a little cover up just out of the shower or perhaps a lounging morning with your honey.

This versatile robe with clean lines is a timeless statement that fulfills a way to be pretty that isn’t floral.

Aurelie Maxi Robe

This maxi length silhouette is stunning and flattering. A beautiful long-length drape, a slightly cowled collar and a straight sleeve alongside a fun tassled belt, make this robe luxe and ultra-wearable.

For the colder months, this one is a must. It’s also pretty perfect for ladies who like a bit more coverage any time of the year. It’s complete sexiness in a more demure way!

Noelie Shirt Dress

A revamped classic. The Noelie Shirt Dress features the ease of a tunic and the flattering silhouette of a dress. For day to day wear or any occasion, this dress has a soft neck, figure cinching belt and small side slits.

This should also be in every woman’s closet. I plan to add one or two to mine as soon as possible!
