Wedding Venue Dealings: That THING You Do

May 15th, 2012, by Bitchless Bride

Brideys… if the beautiful venue hosting your wedding says that they can’t do a particular “thing” that you want them to do, or what you are asking for is outside the boundaries of what they can do (legally or otherwise), please BELIEVE them. ESPECIALLY if this piece was discussed ad nauseum during the initial site visit. What am I talking about? Such things may include (but are not limited to): providing a particular cuisine or food you saw at some AMAZING restaurant that...

Otaduy is a bridal brand out of Spain (though the idea for it came straight from NYC, hollah!) with simple yet stunning wedding dresses. While some tend more towards a vintage look, I picked out my favs that could definitely be styled for a modern bride...gotta love those gold Doc Martens! How do you like?

Guests: Remember They Hired a Pro Photographer for a Reason

May 14th, 2012, by Azure

As wedding season heats up, and my Facebook feed is filled with wedding updates, photos and comments about couples who have literally JUST tied the knot, I thought it was important to share again a priceless piece on wedding photography etiquette for guests, by New York photographer Casey Fatchett. Here's the first commandment wedding guests must follow: Do NOT Tweet, Facebook, or share in any way pictures of the bride before the ceremony. And you'll find more dirty details...

See just how lovely the lace and burlap pairing can be, then head over to our gallery of 15 gorgeous burlap wedding treasures!

The Fine Art of Choosing a Wedding Hat

May 11th, 2012, by Bride Chic

So you're going for a hat on your wedding day. Hats, fascinators, headbands, and many more are all a given these days for topping off your white aisle look. Not long ago, society's code for brides wearing hats instead of a long, flowing veil meant you were either a second time bride or over thirty-five and marrying for the first time. Interesting isn't it? There were, of course, exceptions to the rule: A bride having a very small or 'going away wedding' as they were called back then...

I DO or I DON’T to Facebook Status Updates Directed at Delinquent Invitees?

May 11th, 2012, by Azure

I was on Facebook last night, and judging by all the wedding-centric updates dominating my feed, wedding season is ON like donkey kong! And that, my friends, makes me smile! I just love thinking about all the couples daring enough to take the plunge, and the incredible emotions they must be feeling leading up to the big day. But one update in particular (from a bride-to-be tying the knot this summer) caught my attention and made me think... HUH? It went something like this: Hey...

Swoon Over Lazaro’s New Bridal Collection

May 10th, 2012, by Azure

You can always count on Lazaro to deliver divine wedding dresses. And for Fall 2012, they did just that... going above and beyond with gorgeous gowns that seamlessly fuse timeless with trendy. Lazaro stepped outside the traditional white wedding box with a few frothy tulle confections in soft pastels. The dress above (top left) is soooo pretty, a perfect match for the dreamy pastel style board we shared a month or so back. We're dying to hear what you think of Lazaro's new bridal...

May 10th, 2012, by Azure

Fact: The majority of folks gearing up to attend a wedding have one thing on the mind... drinks, drinks and more drinks! Soon-to-be wedding guests are overcome with visions of open bars and free flowing booze, and really... can you blame them? What this means is that the signature drinks and spirits you serve will not go unnoticed. Luckily though, making your wedding cocktails stand out with a few extra special touches is not difficult to do! One of our favorite ideas? Floral ice...

Peonies, Ranunculus & Lush Eco Succulents

May 10th, 2012, by Azure

…for your brilliant Spring wedding! I’ve been very open about my peony and succulent obsessions, and lately the ranunculus has climbed to the top of my “favorite wedding blooms” list. Why? Well… the photo below (top right, with the bridesmaid in gray showing off her rosette-embellished hem that mirrors the ranunculus bouquet) had something to do with it, and this floral gallery (with lots more lovely from The Bride's Cafe) didn't hurt either! Check out all the...
