I have been fortunate to be able to style all of the shoots for the
talented Lynn Lugo
of
Her designs are so chic,
so wearable,
so fun!
I love that her styles are modern enough to meet the wedding trends of
today while being classic enough to wear post-wedding.
Lynn's shoots are so much fun because she just lets me do whatever i'd like.
So any fun hair trend i've been wanting to try I get to!
This last shoot
(photos not out yet)
I was inspired by her beautiful one shoulder designs as well as the
beauty of vintage style circa 1930.
I did larger loose curls to one side one one model...
and a more flapper style side pin-curl look on the other model
(not pictured)
I
LOVE
LOVE
LOVE
Lynn...
her heart,
her family,
her friendship,
her style.
Check out her bridesmaid dresses and wedding gown here.
These are my friends Jaime & Ryder...
She is whom I consider to be one of my "foodie friends".
She just gets it....food that is. We love to bake, and create new
Homemade gifts, blogs, etsy, and crafting we both adore.
So it seemed fitting that shed have delicious food at their wedding...
I thought they had the best idea,
they choose to serve a wonderful market dinner of fresh salads,
delicious meats,
and wonderful desserts,
to their guests themselves.
This way they got to greet all their guests and not miss a soul!
GREAT IDEA!!!
Once the dinner was dished out and dawn had settled, the party began...
There's my friend Mike and I getting jiggy with it
(in case you haven't caught onto my humor yet, i don't use the term "jiggy" seriously)
And once the guests left and the stillness set in....
the wonderful marriage began.
Here are a few pictures of my wedding reception from October 2006.
The theme was
"Keep me as the apple of your eye"
Psalm 17:8
The colors were apple green & chocolate brown.
Every table was named after an apple.
The invites (which i'll post another Wednesday) were apple trees.
An apple served as the place-cards.
Back in 2006 "The Perfect Pair" was a popular theme and I loved the color theme but, as I often do, I had to be different. I couldn't do what was in all the magazines at that time. I do love green fruit though so apples were it! I was reading through Psalms one morning and came across this verse and the theme of MY wedding was confirmed! God is funny like that...
Ok, Wednesday has to be my favorite day of the week.
Aside from it being the "hump" day (in which the rest of the week is an easy downhill glide) it's
WEDDING WEDNESDAY
The day of the week that we look at something having to do with amazing entertaining---usually pertaining to anything Wedding!
As I was browsing through bridal sites, as I often do, I came across this most beautiful wedding gown by Amsale Bridal (Nadine)...

Ths is most definitely my dream dress....it has ruffles & a pocket. Who doesn't love
RUFFLES & POCKETS???
(I know I do)
