We definitely had no idea what we were in for when we sent in our RSVP for an old family friend’s wedding. The ceremony was at Epiphany Church and was standing room only. We discovered there were 1200 guests and 17 buses to shuttle us all from the church to the cocktail and reception venues, which were the most glorious houses I’ve ever seen in my life. Holy hell. We were greeted by Asian drummers, trays and trays of champagne, cirque de soliel type dancers and performers, an ice bar literally made of ice serving all kinds of shots and martinis and about 10 different food stations throughout the premises. Now that was an event. I wish pictures could do it justice, but they really couldn’t. Regardless, you can check out the set on my Flickr here. Congratulations to the lovely bride and groom!
Lovable Friday!

I’d like to start off today’s Lovable Friday with a personal bit of love aimed directly at my amazing friends, Adri & Jose! Not only did they just close on their first home this week but they found out they will be expecting a little one!!! These two are going to make great parents and I am beyond excited for them both. Squee! 🙂
Lovable Friday!

I really love dress shopping (no secret on this blog), but I really hate how I often times have to pick the runners up because my favorites for events are usually way out of my price range. So I stroke them a few times, give them a kiss and then set them back on the rack. But I just discovered the site, Wear Today Gone Tomorrow, and I cannot wait to give it a try! The site is much like those seen for purses or even camera lenses – you get to borrow high-end designer dresses at 90% off for however long you’d like and then return them right back and pick up a new one! The lovely Paul and Joe Sister number above is one of the dresses on my current wish list and is only $34.50/week. Best part is I doubt I will need any of my dresses for more than one week as I’ll just be snagging them for special events like weddings, parties and showers. Has anyone used this site before? I plan on giving it a test drive next month so I’ll let you all know how it goes!
Lovable Friday

I pretty much love vintage anything, so when I stumbled upon these engagement photos on the lovely Jeune Marie blog, I nearly exploded! How flipping cute are these??? It definitely makes me wonder why I didn’t think of this idea for our own engagement pictures – rats! [Read more…]

I usually like posting about my friends that are extremely talented and creative so they can get the exposure they deserve in the blogosphere, or at least in my own personal space in the blogosphere (heh). But this time, I am able to gush about my own husband! Augi spends his days working as an Art Director at an interactive agency, but he is lucky enough to have many talents (so jealous). He is an amazing guitarist and artist, but I’d say his biggest passion outside of work is photography. Augi is a self-taught photographer that has just recently been honing in on his craft. He’s invited some of our closest friends and family to model for him in order to build his portfolio and he finally thought it was robust enough to put together a blog/website showing off his work, which can be found here!
