Wedding Updates

December 14th, 2011

Last week I made one of the biggest wedding-related decisions thus far (I finally picked a dress!), so it seemed like a good time to share a few of the other details. We’re working with Paige and Kelly, the amazing duo behind Bash/Please, and they’re helping execute our vision of a turn-of-the-century, Great Gatsby-inspired wedding. I’m obsessed with every detail they’ve come up with and just seeing this photographic inspiration makes me wish April wasn’t so far away.



We’ve also put the finishing touches on our Save-the-Dates, done by our favorite stationery company, Walnut Paperie (you can see my business stationery here, and our couples stationery here). I love how the note feels chic and simple, but still playful, with our wedding date circled.

    It looks like your planning quite the party :] If I ever had a wedding I would probably keep it really simple, except for the food and drinks! I think it’s really important to have amazing dishes at a wedding, but I’m sure you’ll have no problem there.

    Our wedding colors are the same, but mine with a hint of gold :) Love the Speakeasy theme and dying to know what dress you chose! I just bought mine last week and ALMOST bought Starlight by Monique Lhullier, which would go great with a 1920′s inspired wedding.

    Hi,
    It is my first comment on your blog! I am French and I am collecting design from de late 19th century, begining of the 20th. Everything look perfect, my only advise : you definetly need a “porte-bouquet” : it is very british, but come from an more antic tradition in Europe. Really, it was “kind of a tradition” in the period you like.

    Have a perfect wedding!!
