Atlantan Brides- A night of Bridal Luxury

I'm so sorry I haven't posted pictures or even said anything about this event.

The Atlantan Bride Magazine hosted a "Night of Bridal Luxury" at the Mason Muere arts gallery and I was asked to help with the coordination of models and the random backstage things that pop up. (like finding a ring box, calling the wedding dress companies, finding models, and watching the backstage access). I had so much fun! I love working with Terrance Shelton (my friend and fashion show director). He is an amazing gentleman. (check him out- he sings at the Buckhead Church). Anyways back to the event. The fashion show included dresses from Wedding Angels (the ladies there are super sweet), Priscilla of Boston, and Anne Barge. Being in the process of planning my wedding it was like a candy shop back stage for me! I just looked at all the BEAUTIFUL dresses and wished I had the thousands of $$$ it would take to buy them. Poor me! Also at the event was Infinite Designs, who did lighting and staging, Legendary event catering, bakers man, and many more. Guest were some of the bridal elite of Atlanta and some of the best wedding planners/catering managers in the state. Even Brian from the 4 seasons was there- he is a sweet heart! Here are some pictures from the party! (sorry that I don't have more my camera died, but as soon as my new friend I made uploads her pictures I will add a second helping!)

I fell in love with this hydragean bouquet. It really stood out against the white wedding gowns.

The ghost table- just kidding! It did seem to float with the table lit up and the sheer chair covers.

Some other floral arrangements and table settings...

Orchids for the Brides

Now for the Gowns!!!

Priscilla or Boston (all above)

This was my favorite dress...

Yes this is a grey dress and it was stunning..

Wedding Angels

Last but not least... the SWAG bag. It had a ton of stuff in it and was valued at $3000! It had free hair appointments, $1000 off catering, chocolate, a garter, soap, a vase... and the list goes on!

Perfectly in Love with Tulips

My fiance has amazing tulips at his apartment complex. Here are few pictures of tulips for your wedding. They are so pretty for a spring wedding. They come in a HUGE variety of colors, everything from pastel to bright pink and orange. Tulips are traditionally know for symbolizing Perfect Love. AWE!

My only issue with them, used as bouquets for the wedding party, they need to be wrapped to the bottom, they tend to get sticky.

Lulu Love

This color pallet is in honor of My Dog Lulu. She wears a fun green collar with rhinestones and a pink tag! She is my little baby and I miss her so much when I'm at work. Bark! Bark!

It's Spring!

Well yes, it has been officially spring for a few weeks now but here is a spring inspired color palette. I really love the watering can if you are having a garden wedding. The composite rose is also amazing and would make a grand statement for a bridal bouquet. I hope this adds some spring to your step!

Having a Ball

Wedding planning is just so much fun! If you are having a fun or a more casual wedding I just love the look of floral balls for decorations. They are cute and can be easy DYI projects to cover foam balls with roses, carnations or evening moss for a more romantic woodsy wedding.

In Honor of Caitlin

So in honor of my new friend and fellow bride. Here is a color board of purple! It is so pretty! I just love the idea of using lavender and hydrangeas. Think lavender soap for out of town guest, lavender sachets for the brides maids, even throwing dried lavender instead of bird seed or confetti are great ways to complement the color scheme in a unique way. Congrats Caitlin! I know you will have a beautiful wedding!

Happy Valentines Day

I just wanted to say I heart weddings. Have a romantic day!

Wild about Orchids

I have been obsessed with Orchids. The Atlanta Botanical Gardens has a wide variety of exotic orchids in their conservatory (which by the way you can rent for you event!). They come in so many beautiful colors and I love the bouqets that utilize the length and airiness of the orchids and their natural beauty in floral arrangements. Just look at these beautiful flowers. I think any of the flowers pictured below would make gorgeous brides maide boquets against navy dresses.
