Fabulous Frock {Thursday!}: Lela Rose

I realized this week that it has been a while since I posted a Fabulous Frock Friday, and I have some exciting news to share with you tomorrow, so I am jumping ahead with a Fabulous Frock Thursday! Today I am featuring gowns from Lela Rose because I love her use of unique textiles to create simply elegant gowns and because I found out that we share the same Alma Mater- the University of Colorado. Lela launched her bridal collection in 2006 and most recently gained notoriety for creating the bridesmaids dresses for Jenna Bush's wedding.

Becky & Jeff

Becky and Jeff were married on April 6th in Palmetto, Georgia at one of our favorite spots, Serenbe. The night was picture perfect, complete with Dogwood branches, cookies shaped like the couples beloved Dog, a cigar bar and a Sparkler exit {not to mention to pretty amazing scenery!}. Congrats, Becky & Jeff! Thank you to The Decisive Moment for these beautiful images! See the complete slideshow here.

Love these matching expressions during the ceremony!


Summer Reads!

I love when the new magazines come out each Season- especially this time of year when magazines are a must for summer pool/ocean side reading. I was excited to see the weddings of Lori and Marshall, Melissa and Jason as well as a re-cap of The Knot Market Party in the Fall/Winter The Knot Georgia Magazine. Also, there is a beautiful spread of Ellie and Dave's wedding in the new Atlantan Brides Magazine. Pick up these savvy publications for some inspirational Summer reading!

DIY Circus Themed Wedding

Last weekend I had the pleasure of working with the amazingly talented New York photographer Josh Goleman. I was perusing his website and came across the circus themed wedding of Halli & Adam on his blog. I think this is one of the most creative, well-done themed weddings I have ever seen!



Josh told me that anytime there was a wedding "formality" {first dance, cake cutting, etc.} they would walk around with these adorable signs letting everyone know what was happening next.


Also, check out Halli and Adam's fantastic wedding website {www.abelleandayankee.com}!

Jenna & John on Snippet & Ink


May flew by so quickly I almost didn't have time to look up! I didn't even realize that Jenna and John's derby themed wedding was featured on Snippet and Ink in early May. We loved all of their fun details for a derby weekend wedding! I also love the idea of having your guests write you little notes {instead of a guest book} that you have someone mail to your home address. What a sweet treat to have the notes waiting for you in your mailbox when you get back from your honeymoon!
