Real Weddings : Blush and Sparkle Seaside Romance

We've all had those days when escaping into spa bliss is just what the doctor ordered, so why don’t you slip away with us to Hyatt Resort & Spa Key West to bask in the works of Margot Landen Photography; who shows us just how wonderful blush tones can be.

Let’s Talk Florals

Every single aspect of this wedding is to die for, but if you would like to get down to business, take a seat, kick your feet up, and enjoy with us some of the most beautiful floral accents ever know to wedding kind. If you’re looking to make a splash on your big day then you might want to pay close attention to the bride’s bouquet. A simple accent will make all the difference when opting for a wrap to tie your gorgeous bouquet together. This lovely bride chose to match her bouquet wrap to the elegant crystal bodice embellishments from her gown. Just as though the bouquet wore a mini replica of the bride’s gown. Speaking of bouquets, the lovely embellished wrap was just an extra ounce of fabulousness as the bouquet was grand a lush all on it’s own. Being made up of white and blush peonies, which also made appearances on the very gorge centerpieces.

Sparkle & Shine

Sparkle speaks volumes, particularly when done right.  Subtle hints of shine can extend throughout your special day without overwhelming your guests. This gorgeous bride has a thing or two to teaches about spreading glitz and glam on your wedding day. Amanda began with the focal point of her sparkle and shine with the stunning embellishments on her dress, she took it a step further with a beautifully delicate headpiece attached to her veil. But, the lovely bride was not the only one sporting an embellished waistline, the marvelous bridesmaids went in on the trend and perfected it! Need more glitz? How about incorporating it into your decor like the very sweet suspended poms.

Blush A Little

You’ve probably guessed by now that blush is the central hue of the day, but if you’re still wondering how to incorporate it into your nuptials direct your attention to the bridal party. The simplest and most elegant way to incorporate your central color is by having your bridesmaids opt for a gown in that color it and your groomsmen sport it on their boutonnieres. Little touches of your main color will do just the trick throughout the ceremony decor.

Cream and Blush Black Tie Wedding

With fall in full swing, we are ready to cozy up with a pumpkin latte on one hand and a handful of fabulously gorgeous black-tie wedding by Jamie Ivins Photography on the other... 

Location, location

What is more romantic than a fall wedding overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and Newport Bridge with sailboats in the distance and love in the air? Absolutely nothing. And, that is why we adore Kendall and Lawrence's Belle Mer- New England nuptials. The gorgeous waves and majestic sunset made for a stunning backdrop to a lifetime of memories. Transitioning from an outdoor ceremony into an indoor reception is not always easy. So, how do you get the perfect balance of outdoor seaside beauty meets indoor sophistication? You added details to tie your look together, of course. Kendall + Lawrence accomplished this transition with style by greeting their guests into a lavish indoor reception with a star fish place card/ favor.

Classic Style with a Touch of Seaside Glamour 

Neutral tones are always a favorite for the simple fact that they are classic, which means that they will never create a color palette that you look back and say, "what was I thinking?" Not to mention, neutrals are a clean and sophisticated way to transform a room from ordinary to fabulously extraordinary without extracting attention from the gorgeous couple. Mismatched is a concept we totes adore, but only if done correctly, and in this case, it definitely delivered. These lovely bridesmaids wore the same dress, but all wore completely different necklines, which is a great way to give your besties options without compromising a cohesive look. Men like feeling and looking almost as glamorous as women do and who can blame them when they have stunning counterparts- so wearing a tux to a beach wedding is totally not out of the question.

The Art of Simplicity 

The most memorable and the most beautiful details are those that are effortless. Need proof? We have three tiers of delightfully blissful proof that less is more. A classic wedding cake will always be the perfect staple to any themed wedding, which makes it easy to customize according to your personal style, and not to mention, they are budget friendly. As wedding enthusiasts we know that flowers can transform any room, but it was Kendall and Lawrence who perfected the art of transforming their venue by adorning it with lush hydrangeas and rises with a touch of candles.
