Hilary Duff’s Wedding Cake

A big highlight in the Wedding World recently has been the marriage of Hilary Duff and Mike Comrie. With a stunning Vera Wang gown, plenty of roses, and a “warm and cozy” atmosphere, it really was a gem. My favorite part by far however, (her dress a close second) was the cake. A simple, “vintage home made”, elegant tiered cake… minus the frosting. Amidst an abundance of cookie-cutter weddings, this cake really stands out. A cake without frosting was a really nice touch and very unique, and perfectly matched the overall feel of the wedding. With the contrast of the soft pink roses, cream frosting and golden brown cake layers, I’m really in love.

Vintage DIY Reception

Simple, beautiful, and inexpensive. This DIY reception decor was apart of Catherine and Hans’ wedding over on iDIY. It just goes to show, you can have a classic and stunning wedding on a small budget; this wedding was done with just 3 months and $8,000 to spare. All the DIY details and the vintage theme really make this Seattle wedding memorable.

$10 DIY Wedding Dress

Many brides today are on a budget, and although $10 takes it to the extreme, the point remains the same: you don’t have to spend a fortune on your wedding gown. Even if your sewing skills are rudimentary, you can make exactly the dress you’ve always wanted, without the hefty price tag. DIY is the perfect option for Brides who want to be more hands on with their big day and add some personal touches, not to mention those who are Eco and budget conscious. Before you decide to lay down hundreds or thousands on your dress, consider making a one of a kind gown on your own.

Ring Feature

After being introduced to Diana Ornes Photography via this beautiful wedding, I’ve only found more and more photos I like! I really adore ring shots, and this one in particular is stunning. I love the rings themselves as much as I love the photo.

Rustic Succulent Bouquet

There’s nothing I love more than a bouquet featuring succulents. Eco Friendly, aesthetically pleasing, and deliciously rustic. Check out this stunner from Brook and Raf’s Wedding in sunny San Luis Obispo, California. I love the added touch of the burlap binding and twine.

Quick Palette #14

I saw this vintage slip dress by an Etsy seller called KTJean, and it inspired me to do a rustic, western, vintage inspiration palette. Warm colors like chocolate brown and mustard yellow come to mind, and work beautifully with the theme. Straw, feathers, and other natural details give such a warm atmosphere to any wedding.

Kipp & Sommer’s Fireworks

When Diana, of Diana Ornes Photography, sent me these stunning photos of this epic wedding, I fell in love. The story she included along with it makes it even more romantic. Although Kipp and Sommer’s wedding day started off rainy and gloomy, it opened up to a picturesque rainbow, which was followed by an equally beautiful sunset. To complete the picture, the night ended with a firework show arranged by the groom for his bride. It was held on property owned by the father of the groom, and even had a pond with a paddle boat. I can’t think of a more beautiful backdrop! Check it out.
