Real Weddings: Christina + Brent

Christina and Brent’s wedding is the perfect example of how a little rain could never truly spoil the beauty and love of a wedding. They started their celebration outside at Rust Manor in Leesburg, Virginia, and just as their officiant said “you may kiss the bride” tiny sprinkles started falling from the sky! Luckily, their reception was held inside and …

Hello, friends! Cyd from The Sweetest Occasion here popping by with a pretty little color palette to inspire your morning! Coral and mint are all the rage right now and I admit to harboring a full-fledged obsession. That said, I’m loving this palette as a super sophisticated and modern take on these red hot colors of the moment. Looking to …

Real Weddings: Ashley + Kevin

Ashley and Kevin’s wedding is so deliciously gorgeous, it’s hard to decide my favorite part! The celebration began with an outdoor garden ceremony at Aristide and then moved inside for a candlelit reception. Tables and decor were inspired by peacocks with a color palette of teal, aqua, and violet, and place settings even included a peacock feather tucked in the napkins! …

Real Weddings: Kristina + Tony

It was important for Kristina and Tony to have a wedding that celebrated their next step as a couple, but that was also intimate, local, reflected their love of music, and that had amazing food. When they traveled just 45 minutes outside NYC to check out Blue Hill at Stone Barns and they saw the gorgeous setting, they fell in …

Real Weddings: Nina + Michael

The gowns, the flowers, the colors…I absolutely love all of the details from Nina and Michael’s wedding. This beautiful couple celebrated their marriage right on Lake Erie with a traditional and elegant reception at Shoreby Club and an in-credible color palette.

The Blue Ridge Mountains are the spectacular setting for this morning’s lovely Virginia wedding.  Rachel and Edwin are true wine lovers (Edwin owns a wine shop in Downtown Frederickburg), so King Family Vineyards was the perfect venue for their wedding.  The mountain views were a perfect backdrop for the outdoor ceremony, made even more gorgeous with the elegant, rustic florals …

Real Weddings: Katherine + Lorenzo

Every detail of Katherine and Lorenzo’s wedding at the Powell Crosley Estate in Florida is simply divine. Katherine was inspired by the Old World feeling of the estate so she incorporated international elements into the day such as luggage tag escort cards and tables named for different places around the world. It was an elegant and romantic wedding dressed in whites and …

Real Weddings: Anna + Eric

Anna and Eric met while working on the musical RENT, so along with all the personal touches they included in their dreamy Charleston wedding, they were also sure to include a nod to their love of Broadway. Flower girls tossed small hearts punched from sheet music, and guests were given CDs covered with the sheet music of “Seasons of Love” …

Real Weddings: Morgan + Cully

Morgan and Cully knew they wanted an outdoor wedding. As a little girl, Morgan and her sisters spent days at their family’s cabin horseback riding, fishing, and making lots of memories, so it seemed perfect to have their wedding there! Their families worked for months planting flowerbeds, updated the cabin, and gathering vintage china. The whole day was filled with …

Indigo Blues

Hey, everyone! Cyd from The Sweetest Occasion here, chiming in with a little indigo love in celebration of Color Week. I’m a bit of a color-loving junkie myself and I basically obsessed with today’s color palette. Pairing deep indigo blues with shades of aqua and touches of warm gray, it’s dramatic, rich and moody. These colors are bold and elegant, …
