Wedding Bee and the Metropolitan Club

I was delighted to finally meet Bee of Wedding Bee fame last Wednesday night at our bridal cocktail party at the Metropolitan Club. We chatted a bit about blogging and now I know why she is the Queen Bee in this area. She told me some of her secrets and I'm going to try to follow her directions! She posted great images of the event so I thought I'd share. We look forward to seeing you at our next one Bee.

gloves & bows


perhaps this has nothing to do with weddings, but this image is stunning! pink gloves and the bow bag--gorgeous. i'm sorry for the late post. this week may be slightly different because of our move and my boy has a bad cold! enjoy your tuesday!

NY Times Vows

I am an avid reader of all things wedding, and regularly read the wedding stories in Vows Section of the New York Times. This week there was an amazing article of a couple who knew (and loved) each other for 20 years and finally sealed the deal. This story of almost unrequited love is sweet, but the fact that they dressed in their favorite candy wrappers and were married at Dylan's Candy Bar is too good not to share. Check it out.

And I love that our own Karen Cunningham took these images for the The New York Times.

Wedding at Mijas Villa Bancales



How lucky are these brides at the moment with our Spanish weather, every wedding I have decorated since March has been perfect and the sun has shone on everone. Here we decorated and coordinated a beautiful wedding for Leilani and Eric,
who flew in from San Francisco and what a fabulous day they had in such a beautiful setting at Villa Bancales in Mijas.
Our thanks to such a smooth running day goes to the ever amazing Jeremy Standley, JH Productions, Michael Taylor Catering, Sue with her lovely cakes, and of course the wonderful Matt with his beautiful spanish guitar and last but not least Reviva Weddings!
We are of course waiting for the most fabulous photos from Jeremy and his team! So watch this space x
To watch the ceremony filmed by JH Productions for the family that could not attend visit

Oscar How I Adore You

bluebird studios


good morning! ladies, this week my boys and i are packing up our little house and moving!! oh my, are we so excited. and let me tell you, this has been a long time coming...so in honor of this happy event, i wanted to share some gorgeous calligraphy & mail art by bluebird studios. calligraphy is just a lovely touch to a wedding--i can't tell you how beautiful it is to see an invitation with such care and detail--it creates such mood for your event! i especially love how unique there lettering is. it doesn't have to be a black-tie wedding to use a calligrapher and this is a wonderful example of that.



check out her mail illustration--love it! great vintage flair:
