Black and White Inspirations from Lover.ly

Good afternoon!  I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend.  We’re already half way through the week!  I’ve been spending some time lately on one of my favorite sites, Lover.ly, collecting ideas, and “bundling” them into boards.

One of my favorite bundles is “Black and White” that I created, perfect inspiration for my upcoming wedding.  I love that cake!!!

This site has some similar qualities to Pinterest, but it’s just about weddings – my favorite!  So many pretty things to see!

 

Have a fabulous day!

Happy Memorial Day Weekend!

Good evening friends!  Ryan and I will be heading to Lake Tahoe for a wedding this weekend.  Looking forward to the beautiful views I’ve only seen in pictures of Tahoe.

Honeymoon Booked!

Good morning (or afternoon I should say) and happy Monday!  Yesterday Ryan and I booked our Hawaiian honeymoon for November and we’re so excited! 

Neither Ryan or myself have ever been to Hawaii, and what better time to experience the beautiful islands than together as a married couple!  My lucky parents and little sister are on their way to Maui as I type this!

We’ll be staying at the Hyatt Regency Maui Resort & Spa … it looks beautiful! 

What are the do-to’s in Maui?  Any suggestions for 1st time Maui visitors?  I’d love to hear them! 

Have a fabulous day!

Our Engagement Session by Sargeant Photography

Hi friends!  I know I’ve shown you a few of my engagement photos here and there and links to where our pictures have been featured, but today I wanted to share with you my favorite photos from our e-sesh with Paul and Leanne from Sargeant Photography.  Of course it had to rain on the day we were scheduled to shoot but honestly it made the pictures come out so unique and cool looking, Ryan and I were so happy with them!  We began shooting at a wilderness park in Laguna Beach then moved to downtown.  We finished on the beach with some of my favorite images of the whole day.  Paul and Leanne are truly talented!

I love our sign by Brandy at baybee-dahl boutique.

Aren’t the clouds so beautiful?!  This rain loving girl had such a fun time on our shoot, wish we could do it again!  What do you all think of the pictures? 

Have a fabulous day!

Darling Milk & Cookies Photo Shoot by Love and Lavender

This photo shoot has been in my “favorites folder” to share for awhile now and I think today is the perfect time.  I love, love, love this fun milk & cookies shoot styled by the ladies at Love and Lavender and featured on Style Me Pretty.  Honestly who doesn’t love milk & cookies?  I can never pass up chocolate milk 😉 … enjoy!

On a side note, I LOVE the bride’s dress – a Jim Hjelm stunner and one of my favorites.  If I hadn’t found my dream dress, I wanted this to be the one!

See more of this photo shoot over on Style Me Pretty.  You’ll love it all!

Have a fabulous day!
