Earlier this year my family had the opportunity to travel to Florida for my cousin’s wedding. We spent a long weekend hanging out poolside and celebrating in the sunshine, making this first-time visitor a Florida lover for life. If you’re on the hunt for the perfect wedding locale, you have to check out Kissimmee in …

I am loving this idea for simple and easy holiday entertaining – a super delicious cheese platter! I have a special love for cheese plates in restaurants so in my world this is sure to be a crowd favorite. Lay out parchment paper on a large cheese or cutting board, set out lumps of your …
I’m loving this fall wedding inspiration shoot featured on Style Me Pretty last year. This past weekend we went to a cookout at a friend’s house where the kids had way too much fun raking up big piles of leaves and wrestling around. Somehow this reminds me of that same carefree spirit. Big piles of …
I love the awesome party in a box that Amanda Jane Jones designed for her husband’s 30th birthday. Realizing most of the people she wanted to invite to the 30th birthday party she really wanted to throw him, she instead bundled up the party and sent it to them! Each package contained confetti, party straws, …
Good morning and happy Monday, friends! I thought I’d kick off the week by revisiting the pretty party downloads that the lovely Laura Macchia designed for us last year to help celebrate Thanksgiving in style. I’m hard at work organizing all kinds of holiday season goodies for this year, but I still can’t get enough …

Their new holiday collection has me jumping up and down with excitement for the holiday season and all the festive parties that come along with it! From shoe clips to clutches, from headbands to sequined scarves, they have just …
Inspired by the graphic, black and white Missoni for Target bike coveted by so many, event designer Jessica Herberger of Experience Events designed this chic tablescape. Jess imagined a stylish, casual couple hopping onto their bike and zipping off to city hall to get married. What follows is a little celebration with decor using simple …
I was so excited to have the lovely Jenny Haas share her niece Ada’s first birthday party. Jenny’s sister pulled together all of the pretty shabby chic details, from the vintage-inspired fabric hoops along the wall to the beautiful cluster of mini cakes. I love the simple white roses tucked in old milk bottles and …
I’m loving this soft and pretty color palette for the fall harvest season. It’s a touch unexpected, but still definitely says “autumn” to me. Of course, I’m still loving on all shades of peach, apricot and pink these days, but I love the addition here of a bit of fresh green and a darker rust …
Right now I’m loving the latest collection by Amy Wing Designs. Inspired by the ironwork of Venice, Amy designed a collection that plays off the concepts of light, dark, shape and form. Each piece was created in sterling silver which was cast, hammered and then antiqued to give a dark, rich color that I absolutely …
