My obsession with tea parties continues today with this cute tea party bridal shower spread. I love the pastel color palette and the bright colorful poppies in little milk glass bud vases. A simple swag of pink crepe paper is as pretty as it is fuss-free. Plates of raspberry cupcakes and trays of cookies ensure …

Happy Monday, friends! It’s hard to believe that we’re in the final couple of days of summer, isn’t it? While I’m getting increasingly excited about all things fall, I couldn’t bid summer adieu without a proper farewell. I thought a little round up of a handful of my favorite summer celebration details would be a …
Happy Friday, everyone! I hope everyone has had a great week. Mine has been busy busy busy as usual and actually zoomed right by and I’m really looking forward to the weekend. I have a little project up my sleeve I’m looking forward to sharing with everyone next week that has me thinking and obsessing …
I wanted to take a quick moment today to share that this weekend (September 18 + 19), Smock will be donating 100% of sales from the Isle collection to Oceana. Oceana is an advocacy organization that has taken up an active role in the fight against offshore drilling in the wake of the Deepwater Horizon …
I am loving all of these cool homemade DIY gift wrap ideas! I am a sucker for a packaging so a well-wrapped gift is always something I strive to give, even when gifting the simplest of things. Even a small trinket takes on special meaning when wrapped with care and a little extra thoughtfulness. These …

I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t completely obsessed with today’s real wedding. Sent over by Jeff Wallace Photography, Aubrie and Aaron’s gorgeous summer wedding took place at the Heritage Museum of Orange County. I love the gorgeous color palette, the pretty peach flowers and all of the sweet little details that make this …
If you happen to live someplace that is feeling a little dark and gloomy this week (we’re definitely experiencing some dark and gloomy here) prepare yourself for a blast of sunshine! This rainbow hued birthday party brightened up my day and I know you’ll love it, too. From the vibrant papel picado to the simply …
Hello, everyone! Things are a little slow going as I catch up from being away for a few days, but I wanted to share this sweet little dinner party table design with you today. Wouldn’t this be perfect for a rehearsal dinner or even a small casual wedding? It would also make for a really …
I mentioned yesterday that I have doggies on the brain this week so when I stumbled upon the amazingly fashionable doggie attire of Rover Dog, I knew it was too good to resist sharing with you. If you’re thinking about incorporating your furry kid in your wedding, I love the look of these cute coats, …
It turns out that juggling our new puppy Colby, an 11 week old golden retriever, and our sick big sister puppy Nina, our 5 year old black lab, has left me completely exhausted this week so I apologize for things being quieter than usual around these parts. I am flying tomorrow evening to spend a …
Good morning, everyone! I hope you had a great long weekend and got to spend a little extra time with your loved ones. Let’s jump start the week with a little celebration of family, shall we? A couple of months ago Mattie contacted me for adoption party ideas for friends celebrating the adoption of their …
