And if you can't do yellow dresses, then why not some yellow shoes?

Tuesday Shoesday: Perfect Pop of Color

I love it when brides choose colored wedding shoes. I think it provides the perfect pop of color against a wedding gown. These orange heels are a perfect complement to the lovely bouquet.


Happy Tuesday Shoesday!

Style Board: Lemon Wedding Inspiration

I hope y'all had a great Memorial Day Weekend! I'm so thankful and appreciative of all the soldiers who fight day in and day out for our safety and freedom, and especially those who have given their lives to serve.

With Memorial Day, I feel like we unofficially kick off the summer. So I thought that for this week, I'd start it off with some Lemon Wedding Inspiration! Enjoy!

Succulent Inspired Wedding Cakes

I think wedding cakes inspired by succulents is a relatively new idea. I love these first two cakes by Erica O'Brien! She is so talented!



This next cake was for the wedding of Carissa, owner of JL Designs.

This final photo is actually not of cake, but when I first saw the photo, I thought that it was cupcakes with succulents on top. How cool would that idea be if you opted for cupcakes instead of a full cake?

Happy Thursday!

Succulents Wedding Ideas: Centerpieces & Decor

There are so many lovely and different uses of succulents that I couldn't post all the ideas there are out there. So I narrowed down a few of my favorites. Friday, I'll be devoting the post entirely to succulent bouquets! I especially am in love with the last photo with hanging succulents in glass vessels! It's so pretty!

Succulents Wedding Inspiration: Dresses

When I think of a wedding with succulents, I imagine a certain type of dress. On the one hand, I see lacy dresses with intricate lace details. I also see dresses with a mermaid type fit. When I scoured the web for images of weddings with succulents, these were also the type of dresses I found most often. I think any of these dresses would be lovely with a succulent themed wedding.

Tuesday Shoesday: Blue Soled Louboutins

Christian Louboutin's are noted by their distinguishable red soles. These are a pair of blue soled Louboutin's and I must say they are fabulous! Paired with the lime green of the shoes...lovely.


What say you?

Style Board: Succulent Wedding Ideas

Ah, succulents. There's just something so special about them. I can't quite put my finger on it, but I do love succulents. So I thought that I'd focus on succulents this week and succulent wedding ideas. Succulents are oh so versatile and I didn't really realize this until I went hunting for photos. You can easily use succulents for wedding decor, for seating charts, and centerpieces. Succulent wedding bouquets are gorgeous! And so is a wedding cake decorated with succulents. Can't wait to share it all this week!

Music Loves: Regina Spektor



My cousin first introduced me to Regina Spektor's music. Ever since, I've been a follower of her music. I just love her voice and unique sound. There's something entrancing about her voice.

Library Wedding Ideas: Engagement Photos

If I knew half of what I know now about how to make an engagement session personal and fun, I think I would have chosen to have part of our engagement session in a library. It's my book loving heart, I suppose. How fun would it be to take engagement photos in a library? I think half the fun would be trying to be quiet. I can imagine a whole lot of giggling.

I'm sure I could go on and on with dreamy library engagement sessions. It must be the book nerd in me. If I were to do it all again, or have an anniversary portrait session, I think one of the stops would definitely be a library. If you can't have your wedding in a library, then maybe a library engagement session will fill your bibliophile heart!

Happy Friday!

What's your favorite book or recommended read? I'm always looking for new books for my book list!

Check out this week's earlier library wedding inspiration:

Library Wedding Inspiration: Invitations & Paper

Continuing on with our week of library wedding inspiration, I've found some stationery gems!

This invitation by Alicia at Akimbo from Australia is just lovely! I love how the design reflects the wedding location, an historic library.



This next design is a gorgeous use of vintage romance novels. Filled with information about the wedding details, this is an invitation that I would certainly keep!



I love that the RSVP card is a library card!


Speaking of books, this one is a hardcover book! 



If I was having a library wedding, I'd totally have a library card as my Save the Date, too. I'm loving the old type face.

This is a nifty (yes, I said nifty!) way of displaying your escort cards, in a card catalog! I remember in high school having to use these to find books. Let's just say, I'm thankful it's all computerized now!

I LOVED this favors when I first spotted them. These are perfect for a library wedding or book inspired wedding. I'm guessing there's a book wrapped up in there!


What other ways would you incorporate books or paper into your library wedding?

Happy Thursday!
