 ”When I am creating anything for my site I try to keep a few things in mind: cost, creativity, quality & nostalgia. Every bride is totally unique and should be adorned with one of a kind items! Because several of my items are created with lovely little vintage jewelry pieces, I can guarantee that it would be the only one of its kind! All of the materials used are the top of the line- from the high quality French lace to the Swarovski crystals. I try to push the envelope with designs. It keeps me from getting bored with my work and allows for a very diverse shop!”-LAUREN

“I just released one of my newest product ideas- Do-It-Yourself veil kits! This may sound challenging, but in fact- it is the opposite! These kits come with EVERYTHING you would need (even the needle & thread!). I have come up with 2 main types of veils: traditional and birdcage. The step-by-step illustrated instructions make it so easy to understand. The instructions explain how to put a veil on for a secure fit & which way is appropriate for certain hairstyles. There will be no rushing back across town because you forgot to buy something at the store. Best of all, this is geared toward the budget-minded bride. The prices are so much more reasonable than any bridal boutique without having to compromise quality.” -LAUREN

celebrate pastel

Pastel, an editing style?

Muted colors, lots of cream shadows, and popping teals and blues are brushed over these beautiful wedding day details. The style seems to reflect the feel of the Easter celebration. “According to the canonical gospels, Jesus, rose from the dead on the third day after his crucifixion. His resurrection is celebrated on Easter Day or Easter Sunday”- Wikipedia  What is more perfect for a spring celebration than soft whites with romantic pinks and blues?

All of the photographs were found here, Bonjour Tristesse. If you love the pastel, melancholy look then you might spend hours here perusing the images.
