Glam Pink, Black and White Styled Shoot

This glam styled shoot is oozing with lush florals and a unique patterned tablescape.  We are in love with the styling by Taryn Blake Events, and think the shoot is absolute perfection for a Spring wedding.  Soft matte pinks and dark blacks stand out among glittery gold and muted ivory tones.  Girly, flirty, a bit non-traditional, but completely full of elegance and personality that captivates the essence of the day. The models are actually newlyweds who wanted to help design a second event that really would stand out! The bold stripes, glittery gown, and industrialized party feel gave them the kicked up wedding experience that they were seeking.  A big thank you to Jennifer Rotz Photography who photographed all the gorgeous elements of the day and helped bring this shoot to life.  Don't forget to scroll to the bottom to see all the other wonderful vendors who helped plan this amazing shoot.

We are obsessing over this chic table setting from the glittering gold sequin table runner to the trailing florals with tulip accents and striped dinnerware.  Doesn't it just beg for a Spring wedding. Simply fantastic.

Setting atop the guest place settings were small clear favor boxes filled with pink cotton candy tied with glittery gold ribbon which echoed the styling of the wedding cake.  Sweet and adorable.

Glam Black Tie Jewish Wedding

Arielle and Jason's black tie New Jersey wedding was simple gorgeous and one for the storybooks.  Full of crystal, black and white details, and antique gold decor that glittered throughout their ceremony and reception.  The couple's wedding was held at the Crystal Plaza in New Jersey, which definitely comes by it's name naturally.  The stunning crystal chandeliers that echo throughout the hall are absolutely breathtaking.  Brought to life by EXO Photography, a big thank you for sharing Arielle and Jason's gorgeous day with us.

We love when our brides and grooms decide to do a first look before their ceremony.  There is nothing quite as beautiful as capturing the face of a groom seeing his bride for the first time.  The emotion that comes through the photos are why we love weddings in the first place.

Keeping with tradition, Jason breaks a glass to solidify his and Arielle's wedding vows.  A time honored practice upheld still at nearly every Jewish wedding.  Mazel tov!

New Orleans Destination Real Wedding

We love our destination brides.  When this wedding came across our inboxes, we knew we had to feature it.  So fun and full of energy, Nicole and Shawn's New Orleans wedding was one for the books.  They flew all the way from Arizona to have their very own Mardis Gras style wedding.  Complete even with the Second Line (which happened to be the very reason the couple chose New Orleans as their venue).  Family and friends did not disappoint coming in from all over the country to join in on the celebration.  The bridesmaid's spotlight photos are simply fantastic and really show what crazy awesome fun the wedding party was!  We just wish we could have been alongside to join in on the fun.  Lauren Carroll Photography did such a fantastic job at bringing the whole thing together and truly capturing the energy of the day.
