Ian and Abby rolled up in their wedding attire freshly pressed, a little pink in the cheeks from all the attention they were getting.  A pristine 1959 Eldorado Biarritz will do that to you.  Ian’s family personally restored the Biarritz to tip top show condition and it was the perfect addition to their rock the dress session.

We were quite excited to take part in the upscale Wedding Party Bridal Show held at The Omni hotel this spring.  It is always fun to plan and design our booth, from ordering new prints to actually building collapsable walls (Brett does the building).  I actually enjoy attempting to build things but it always seems to end the same way with Brett shaking his head and chuckling at my poorly engineered contraption.  He then has to step in and probably spend more time fixing than it would take him to build from scratch.  But I have him beat hands down when it comes to crafting skills.

The Bridal show was an exciting day.  We met a lot of really great couples and loved having the time to chat with them.  I think meeting new people is one of Brett’s favorite aspect of theses kinds of shows.

I just love the little owl broach pinned to the bouquet. It just adds an extra fun bit of detail.

Do you like DIY but maybe some of its is a little bit daunting?  That is frequently  how I feel.  I look up how to make lots of amazing things on Pinterest but when I finally attempt creation, they never turn out quite right.  Well the lovely coordinator for this inspiration shoot Spring has come up with a great solution.  She has put together a series of hands on DIY workshops that teach a variety of fun skills from, center pieces to handmade jewelry and whimsical hair fascinators.  Spring stylized a recent photo shoot with us using an array of the skillfully crafted decor that will be taught in her classes.  These are some of our favorite shots from the recent inspiration shoot with these fine wedding industry professionals.  Thanks everyone involved for all the hard work, and we can only begin to tell you how much fun it was working together.
