Inspired by Our Brides
Italy Destination Wedding Invitations

Yes, we are officially in the middle of winter, but instead of dwelling on the cold weather, thick sweaters, muddy boots, and itchy scarves, I like to think of January and February as Wedding Inspiration Season. Right now, couples are in the thick of gathering unique, stylish ideas from all across the world of weddings to incorporate into their own lovely affairs, so I’ve been saving up a whole box full of wedding tidbits that I’ve gathered from our trend-setting 2010 couples to share with all of you gorgeous and creative brides in 2011. Our first feature comes once again…

Josh and Kate, Part Three
Cabo San Lucas

Well, the day has finally come – it’s the final installment of the wonderful Josh and Kate here on the bloggy blog. It’s been fun folks. Real fun. But like all amazing and fabulous things, this too must come to an end (tear). After one crazy night of wedding fun, these two got all dressed up again for their day after session, which was a blast because we got to chill and do whatever the heck we wanted to! Wahoo! I’m starting this feature with my most favorite images from the day. Once we found this big wooden chapel door,…

Josh and Kate
Esperanza Resort, Cabo San Lucas

Kate and Josh measure their lives by the depth of their relationships. For them, the days begin with the first hug from a loved one. A quick phone call to say “I love you” has become their cup of coffee – it warms and awakens their eyes and hearts for yet another day of life surrounded by their favorite city and their community of friends. It’s their love for each other and for those around them that has become the heartbeat of their days. They need to feel connected, and that’s what I love about them. Just spend a few…

Josh and Kate | Sneak Peek

Jeff and I arrived home yesterday from Josh and Kate’s destination wedding at the Esperanza Resort in Cabo San Lucas, and we’re feeling relaxed, sun baked, golden and happy. Gracie hasn’t left our side since we walked through the door, and she spent the entire night last night walking all over us just to make sure we knew we were home. She’s just that sweet and welcoming… We’re off to LA this weekend for Jeff and Erin’s quirky and cultural Marvimon wedding, but first I just wanted to share the tiniest tidbit of our mountain of gorgeousness from our time…

Alistair and Katie, Part Four
Lucca, Italy

Welcome back to the last day of Ally and Katie’s destination wedding in Lucca, Italy. After recovering from the wedding festivities for a few days, they got back into their wedding garb and we hit the streets of Lucca for their Day After session. It was so fun having these two take us on a tour of the back streets of this adorable little town! This is why I love Italy. People use wine crates as bike baskets to hold their jug of whiskey. Need I say more? 5 people love this 1 person loves this And then they use…

Alistair and Katie, Part Three
Lucca, Italy

Ally and Katie’s destination wedding in Lucca, Italy, continued when everyone arrived at La Casa Gialla, a gorgeous villa surrounded by olive groves and drenched in warm evening breezes and sunshine. We absolutely loved the staff at La Casa Gialla. Not only did they capture Katie’s vision for her wedding perfectly, they were so friendly, personal, and just plain fun! Katie left no detail untouched – this wedding was filled with the kind of adorable, personal details that made everyone feel welcome and homey as they tucked in for an evening of incredible food, wine, music, and dancing. Before settling…

Alistair and Katie, Part Two
Lucca, Italy

What a beautiful morning for a beautiful destination wedding. Katie is the kind of girl that cherishes details, especially when it comes to gifts. Upon arrival to the hotel in Lucca, guests were greeted with a custom made linen gift bag with their wedding logo (yup, they totally had the cutest logo!) filled with some Tavernello wine and potato “crisps” for an afternoon snack (that’s potato chips for all of us Americans), a map of the city with fun restaurants and cafes circled for guests, bottled water for morning sightseeing, and a schedule of events for the wedding week. I’ll…
