Cherry Blossom Bridal Style
If you’ve ever been to Washington, DC, you know those sweet, delicate cherry blossoms are magic. The light that filters through the pale pink canopy of all those trees is definitely something to see. Imagine what it must be like in Japan at the height of the cherry blossom season?
Which made us think: What would a cherry blossom bride look like? Perhaps she’d wear a wedding gown crafted in fluttery silk organza, and carry a lush pale blush bouquet. Of course, her make-up would have to whisper of pink, and her shoes would bloom on her feet!

Spring is Here!
Break out your sunglasses! Tomorrow, when the sun passes directly over the equator (at precisely 1:14am Eastern), Spring is here!

In Like a Lion {Safari Inspired Bridal Style}
March has come in like a lion, but instead of gusty winds, we’re thinking safari!
Specifically, a lioness’s grace, its rich tawny hue and the blue Serengeti sky is what we’re inspired by.
This a bride who’d wear her hair in loose waves, echoing the flow of her silk georgette wedding gown in the sweet savannah breeze. Everything about her would be feminine and fierce, from her smoky eyes and gold bangles to the beaded platform sandals on her feet.
Celebrating with guests in a simple and fresh space, she and her groom would make their getaway by hot air balloon!
How would you create your safari-inspired bridal style? Comment below!

Beautiful, Bright Bouquets
Spring is in the air!
Well, maybe not. But that’s not going to stop us from pretending. We’re ready for bright colors and warm(er) breezes, and flowers are the perfect way to bring on the sunshine.
Bright, cheerful blooms, specifically.
We can’t decide which is better at singing ‘Spring’ – monochromatic punches of color or rainbow bunches. What do you think?

Mint Green Inspired Bride
Classic white is always elegant, but add a dash of mint and things take a fresh, modern turn.
Imagine a wedding day stroll, mint julep in hand. The bubble hem of your timeless mermaid gown swishes as you turn to greet bridesmaids in frocks that match your necklace’s broach. Vintage china in a soothing hue adorns tables, and you drive away in a chic, mint green car while guests bid you adieu!

Edwardian Inspired Bride
If you’ve been watching Downton Abbey like we have, you’re probably swept away by Edwardian style, too! The elegance and beauty of dress for the upstairs set in those days must have been something to behold.
One glance at Consuelo Vanderbilt or any Edwardian lady and it’s clear: the look is all about layers of lace, beading, and jewels done just right. When it came to gowns, fashionable women of the day wore silhouettes that varied from soft (like that pictured below) to one more structured (think Kate Winslet in Titanic).
While styling your Edwardian-inspired wedding day ensemble, think opulent details and exquisite accessories (like fans, parasols, gloves) along with rich textures and jewelry.
