DIY Bride | Martha Stewart Weddings

Martha Stewart Weddings Magazine, just released their DIY issue this month! So once you are through reading this, you should probably go get your very own copy, if you haven't already! They even have the very first digital version available, for you iPad and Tablet lovers out there! 

I flipped through the pages, scouring for the perfect thing to share with you lovelies. One thing that I absolutely adore about Martha is she walks you through thing step-by-step. It doesn't get any better than that, people! You will never leave her website, or close the pages of her magazines without knowing exactly what to do for your project! 

MarthaStewartWeddings.com  also has a spectacular feature section of DIY customizable printables for everything from favors, to signs, to table numbers...etc. I chose some of my favorites to showcase here! I hope you take the time to take a look at all the great DIY's though! :]

1. Beach Patterned Fresh Fruit Wraps

I had to share this! It is just such a trendy idea! Plus, how could I pass up sharing that beautiful Florida Orange!? The pdf for these cute wraps, is recommended to be printed on Rice Paper. All of the details for this DIY Project can be found here!

•••

2. The "Kiss Invitation"

I remember coming across this in MS magazine once, not too long ago. I also remember being in love with its quirky style and fun elements. If you feel the same, and want to borrow this idea for even a Shower, or Bachelorette party, it is completely customizable! All of the details can again be found here! Trust me it is really that easy!

•••

3. Motif Program Covers

The very first impression your guests have when they arrive at your ceremony is the program that just got handed to them. It is important that they look good, and do not become an afterthought, if you do decide you are having one. This DIY cover is easy to customize, and it gives options for the emblem you can chose. The last step is printing it on whatever cardstock that suits your wedding's theme! Folding and tying it with some lovely ribbon or twine is all you have left to do and Viola! All of the details can be found here for this DIY project!

4. Mini Barrels of Matches, Favors 

his was a Martha Stewart DIY that immediately caught my eye! Matches are still given at weddings, even if they are just at the bar. They are a token that people can almost always find the use for! The labels, and tops for these match barrels are all easily customizable by pattern and initial! It is such a fun way to do the typical matches, and your guests will ADORE them! Just like me! All of the details for this project can be found here! Also, the little barrels can be found at Favors and Flowers!

This was just a preview of four of the many projects! I encourage you to check them out! They are certainly do-able! I have done a couple of them myself, actually, so I speak from a true DIY standpoint!  I hope that you have all enjoyed this little bit of DIY! We want to hear what your favorites are! CHECK OUT THOSE links! :]

Enjoy, lovelies! 

Elemental Inspiration | Aqua + Pink

There are just some things in life that just cannot be overlooked. The absolutely adorable polka dot flower girl dress below happened to be that something in this instance.  It was the main inspiration and the basis off of which this style board was built. Which brings me to the topic of Elemental Inspiration. 

Yes, I made that name up, but don't worry, I have a legitimate point! 

My definition of Elemental Inspiration: The act of finding and loving an element so much, that it becomes all-consuming in the planning process and a main component in the event's identity. This could occur at any point during the planning. 

Once I found that little dress, my entire theme/idea/design had shifted for this inspiration board. It was a complete change, and that is okay. The point is, little details like that can have a big effect on the outcome of your wedding. It is the detailed elements that our brides find, that make our jobs worthwhile, and your wedding that much more memorable. So don't be afraid to fall in love with an "element" and let it creatively inspire your big day! We hope you enjoy that flower girl dress as much as us, and the fun wedding design it inspired!

Seka & Tiegh's Engagement Session

I am beyond excited to be working with Seka & Tiegh!   When meeting with them the other day at the beautiful Fountain of Youth in Saint Augustine where their wedding will be held, I was like a little kid all wound up about a new toy!  It's a wonderful thing when a bride & groom come along who bring creativity, fresh ideas, and great personal details to the planning process!   I can't WAIT for the wedding coming up this summer-- but for now, feast your eyes upon the most adorable engagement shoot in the history of mankind.  Tiffany Manning from LoveTif Photography did an AMAZING job of capturing how crazy-in-love these two are.  From the story-book proposal featuring a vintage typewriter on the beach at sunrise, to the passion Tiegh and Seka share for leading an action-packed athletic and healthy lifestyle-- this love story is an epic one.  It is truly an honor to be a part of their wedding day. 

This shoot was also featured on Style Me Pretty, with Tiffany coveting the deserving spot in the Little Black Book of Vendors. I can't wait to see the images she captures in May!
