Cypress Grove Estates wedding shoot by Misty Miotto Photography Vintage-inspired weddings always deliver the lovely, and this styled shoot using both French and English influences stopped us in our tracks.

Spring Pastels with a Retro Twist
I spotted this delicious editorial shoot for Everly's Spring 2013 collection over on This Modern Romance, and it definitely left me feeling inspired! The retro styling and dreamy pastel color scheme are perfect for Spring, and as always, Stephanie Williams (the talent behind This Modern Romance) killed it in the photography department! So you know I couldn't resist rounding up more gorgeous inspiration! Hopefully you love it as much as I do! Like or Love this retro-inspired Spring...
Romance in the Woods
Now that Spring has sprung, love is really in the air! And this outdoor styled shoot by 410 Studio Photography captures the essence beautifully! Romantic bouquets and centerpieces in shades of pink, celery and natural green, and bright fuchsia nearly stole the show, but the rustic woodsy backdrop and antique decor accents (from Lauren Sharon Vintage Shop Rentals) gave the flowers a run for their money! The model bride wore a half-up wedding hairstyle, classic makeup with dramatic...
Hail Harvard with Crimson Wedding Inspiration
In case you missed the March Madness memo, Harvard pulled a major upset against New Mexico last night. With just 5% of bracket makers choosing the Harvard smarties (No. 14 seed) to beat out No. 3 seed New Mexico (according to ESPN), I'll bet our friend The Man Registry has something to say about this one! And since I love college hoops AND gorgeous design, I thought a bit of Harvard-inspired wedding color inspiration was in order! What do you think of the mood board above? Isn't...
Is Blue the New Blush?
For a while there, it was all about blush pink wedding gowns as unique bridal alternatives to traditional white dresses. And the introduction of blush by most all of our favorite designers opened up the door for more dreamy colors to make their marks on white aisles everywhere. My prediction? That wedding dresses in shades of powder and sky blue, pale aqua, and pastel turquoise will give blush a run for its money in 2013! I mean... just look at the divine confection by Claire La...

Blush, Ivory and Black Dreamy Wedding Color Inspiration
Nothing says classic elegance like a black and ivory wedding color palette. It's a timeless combination you won't regret down the road. But if you're a girly girl who loves pink, consider incorporating soft blush tones along with black and ivory (or white, depending on your preference). The result will be pretty and romantic enough for you, without turning off your groom with too much femininity. I created the dreamy style board above to help you get inspired with this palette,...
