Five of the most amazing wedding related posts from the last couple of weeks. Get ready to be inspired!!
1 :: Style Me Pretty
Everything about this Real Wedding on Style Me Pretty is awe inspiring. The vintage California hotel, the bride’s dress (which was cheap and second-hand, btw), the flowers, the canopy…gorgeous.
2 :: Green Wedding Shoes
A two day event, two amazing dresses, simple yet glamorous and SO unique…you MUST check out this wedding featured on Green Wedding Shoes.
3 :: Clink
You have to click through to see this one. Austin’s own Clink Events coordinated this amazing celebration featuring a Hindu ceremony, a Buddhist ceremony and a gorgeous Four Seasons reception. The details were ornate and breathtaking. You have to check out the bride’s costume changes!! Photography by Vanessa documented this gorgeous event.
If you’ve read this blog at all, you’ll know I’m a sucker for Vegas weddings. When you think of a Vegas wedding, you picture the drive-thru chapel with the Elvis impersonator. Yeah…that’s not what I’m talking about. Today’s Vegas weddings are super glam and definitely take advantage of all Vegas has to offer. But, they’ve lost the tacky factor. Here’s a sneak peek of the nuptials between Jennifer Bartol, editor of Las Vegas Bride Magazine and CBS News Anchor Tedd Florendo.
5 :: Ruffled
A gorgeous collection of inspiration photos using wooden crates as centerpieces. Ruffled always features such pretty things!
Time to top off your Monday morning coffee and enjoy a wedding distraction. Here are 5 amazing posts from last week.
1 :: Bustle
The night of the wedding, you don’t really get to have long conversations with your out-of-town guests–a brunch the morning after gives you that opportunity. Bustle shows a few cute design options for a Post Wedding Day Brunch.
2 :: Postcards & Pretties
The Kentucky Derby was on Saturday. Mint Juleps, seersucker suits, silver, Southern class…what better inspiration for a wedding? Postcards & Pretties put this beautiful inspiration board together. Click through to see more photos.
3 :: erin.ever.after
Of course, this couple is adorable. But it’s the details you need to click through to see. An adorable Save the Date, a typewritten guest book and, my favorite, a picnic movie time. Totally, originally adorable from erin.ever.after.
4 :: Wedding Chicks
I LOVE Mad Men. So naturally, I’m a huge fan of this Save the Date. Dan and Susie are planning a Mad Men, 1960’s themed wedding (swoon). And, their design is downloadable on Wedding Chicks. Check it out.
5 :: Style Me Pretty
There are many beautiful things about this unique Austin wedding. The bride’s nontraditional dress. The whiskey bottle and tin can centerpieces. The flowers. The food! But, seriously, check out these placecards. Totally, uniquely awesome. Click through to Style Me Pretty for more. {We’re going to host a Weddings Unveiled at this venue–Vista West Ranch–on August 22. Mark your calendars!}
What better way to start a week than with a bit of wedding distraction? Here are 3 fantastic posts from 2 amazing sites. Grab a fresh cup of coffee and check it out!
1 :: Green Wedding Shoes
Beautiful photos of this vintage inspired backyard wedding featured on Green Wedding Shoes. I’m a sucker for anything vintage. I especially love the altar made of antique doors and the way the vintage windows frame the reception area. So clever.
2 :: Love & Lavender
Perhaps it’s because I’m from the desert that I freak out every time I see desert wedding photos. There’s something unexpected and gorgeous about a beautiful bride (and, in this case, her groom) in the middle of the desert. This photo session featured on Love & Lavender is striking.
3 :: Love & Lavender
Another post from Love & Lavender. Amazing ideas for ways to use your wedding details in your home.

It’s been a couple of weeks since I posted a link list and I really do intend to do one each week. Thus, these links are those I’ve gathered over the last couple of weeks. By next week, I’ll be on a regular Friday-Link-List schedule. I pinky swear.
For your surfing pleasure.

This gorgeous couture wedding featured on Style Me Pretty is one of the most scenic weddings I’ve ever seen. Get married in front of an ancient redwood in Carmel? Yes please…
#4 :: Love & Lavender
An engagement session on Love & Lavender. I love the way the photographer, Clayton Austin, used this frame as a prop in these engagement photos. Gorgeous.
#5 :: Style Me Pretty
You really must click through to see all of the details from this Texas wedding featured on Style Me Pretty. Wildflowers, succulents, vintage windows, antique keys…it’s all captured by Austin’s own Whitney Lee Photography with amazing food from 2 Dine 4. Beautiful.
This should leave you with plenty of eye candy. At least until tomorrow. Check back this weekend for posts featuring Austin vendors.
