Hawaii Destination Wedding

Today's wedding feature isn't your typical Hawaiian wedding, with sun, sand, beaches, and palm trees.  The beautiful Haiku Mill, the venue that this couple choose is a hidden gem.  With stunning botanical garden views and Old World elegance, I was completely captivated with this venue.  Love the charm and simplicity of this wedding.

Rustic & Romantic Wedding

I love this rustic Ojai garden wedding.  It's full of charm, natural elements, and beautiful scenery.  Love the succulents in the bride's bouquet and the centerpieces, and a Moroccan themed cocktail hour complete with rugs and lanterns is the perfect way for guest to relax post ceremony and enjoy the sunset.  And I love that the garden is at the bride's home and also where the couple got engaged, why not get married in a place that holds so many personal and beautiful memories!

French Garden Bebe Shower

I am literally dying over this gorgeous French Garden inspired baby shower.  Every picture elicits a 'ohhh' or an 'ahhh' or a 'fabulous' out of my mouth.  Take a look and you'll see the stunning eye candy in these pictures, I can only imagine how lovely this shower must have been in person.  This French garden party featured a feast that included sandwiches, fruits, mini appetizers, cookies, key lime pies, and so much more.  With a  drink station is perfectly garden partyesk, how cute is that drink cart.  The bistro set, scatted baskets, crates, and silver trays, create a soft, rustic, French vibe.  But let's take a second to talk about that stunning backdrop, I couldn't be more smitten by it.  Created using curated plates in beautiful pink patterns, and glass plates in pink and green, it creates a stunning visual.    The favors of potted herbs and cake pops are perfect for this theme.  And the 'create a headband' station is genius!  It's the perfect twist on the design a onsie concept, and it creates a stunning display.

Modern Miami Wedding

How lovely is this modern Miami beach wedding?  With lush garden landscapes, purple and blue hues, and modern clean stylings, this wedding is stunning.  A ceremony site with an abundance of baby's breath and a relaxed reception give this wedding at the W Hotel in Miami, a style all it's own.  Love that the bride designed the black belt for her bridesmaid's dresses, and in case you were wondering the bride wore an gorgeous Vera Wang gown.

Modern Garden Party

It's to bad my birthday is in the middle of winter because I'm in love with this modern garden party and I think it would make for the perfect birthday bash.  I'm obsessed with the sleek upholstery - from the pinstriped arm chairs to the sexy suede love seats and the tufted ottomans, the streamlined look of everything-epically the beautiful wood bar, the subtle use of color- hits of yellow, gold, and purple, and the juxtaposition of dark woods and shiny metallics.  This outdoor party is stunning!
