Hi, everyone! I hope you all had a great long weekend for those of you who dwell in the States. Mine was such a treat! Long lazy days on the water and lots of sunshine. It was just the perfect way to mark the unofficial end to summer. Today we’re kicking off the week with …
Hey, everyone! I hope you’ve had a great week. Is it seriously Friday already? If anyone can figure out where summer has gone, please let me know. I can hardly believe it’s already Labor Day weekend! I don’t have much planned this weekend other than soaking up as much sun and time on the lake …
I love this glam 40th birthday celebration that the crew at Insight Creative hosted for Megan, one of their very own. With styling by Carbine Avenue, loads of pink and gold, and a rockin’ photo booth this is proof positive that life only gets better at 40! Boasting a casual yet super fun vibe, the …
This post was sponsored by JR Dunn. Thank you for supporting the sponsors that so generously help keep The Sweetest Occasion rockin’! When I first hit that golden age where all of my friends were getting engaged and buying up bridal magazines quicker than I ever knew possible, time and again I found myself ogling …
Soft, pretty and totally romantic, there’s something about blue and pink that is just so classic. Here it’s all about deep, moody shades of blue with the softest petal pink and the loveliest shade of rosy carnation. It’s got this slightly rustic, country vibe going on that I think is perfect for transitioning from late …
{Photo by Mieke Willems.} I am so excited to announce today that after much ado, The Sweetest Occasion is officially seeking our first ever blog intern! Specifically we’re looking for someone with graphic design chops who is passionate about design and blogging. It would be awesome to find someone local to the Syracuse, New York …
Good morning and happy Monday, friends! We’re going to start the week off right with the prettiest Vieques, Puerto Rico destination wedding. If you’ve been reading for a while right now you may remember last year’s giveaway with Starwood Hotels and Resorts and American Express. Rosaleen was the lucky lady who scored 100,000 Starpoints, which …
Hey, gang! How’s everyone’s Friday going? I hope it’s awesome! This weekend I’m going to be taking up residence at Canoe Point, a campground on an island accessible only by boat up in the Thousand Islands. So for the next couple of days you’ll pretty much find me in a bathing suit from sun up …
Like many of you, I’m a bag girl. I love the way a great bag can transform the look of an outfit or how the right tote can make even yoga pants feel like an outfit. (You know what I’m talking about, ladies, don’t deny it!) So today it seemed only appropriate to share some …
So here’s a random confession for your Thursday. I don’t wear shorts. As in, ever. I couldn’t tell you the last time I wore a pair. In the summer months you’re pretty much 100% guaranteed to find me in a skirt or a dress any time of day or night. To me they’re just so …
Summer may be winding down, but there’s still plenty of time to get out there in the sunshine. If you’re looking for the perfect way to pass a sunny afternoon with the kids, why not throw together a little lemonade stand? There’s something so sweet and nostalgic about stumbling upon a table with little tykes …
It just dawned on me that we had a similar color palette, crushing on shades of green and pink, a couple of weeks ago. I guess some things are just too pretty to deny, right? I think you guys probably know by now that this is one of my favorite color combinations of all time. …
