Classic Wedding From Lane Dittoe

Happy Monday!

Lane Dittoe is definitely bringing pretty back! Along with a fabulous list of vendors this classic wedding will doubt be an inspiration spring board. Hues of mint green and soft grays filled the day thanks to Joyful Weddings and Events. They always seem to go above and beyond in the design department.

I have to throw out a nod to the florist, I am a sucker for Anemones in a wedding bouquet. There is something so magical about the little white flower with the black center.

Do you love the Ynes and Ryan name sign? Of course it was hand made by Joyful Weddings and Events. The incredible cake was baked with love by none other than the spectacular Sweet and Saucy Shop. Always a crowd pleaser.

The bud vases surrounding the cake with an array of white flowers looks simple yet stunning. A perfect example of divine design.

Seaside Wedding From J.Monetstudios

Gerrilynn & Kevin were marrried at Little Harbor Resort in Ruskin, Florida. A place that they hold quite special. The couple acutally shot their first couple portraits here as well, all documented by the ever so talented J.Monetstudios. Who also captured their engagment on film.

Gerrilynn thought that she and Kevin were taking this year’s couple portraits, when it was really the proposal event. J.Monetstudios captured it all on film and here she is capturing their wedding at the very same location. It is quite lovely that Gerrilynn & Kevin have a place that they hold near and dear to them.

How much do you love the seashell wedding cake?

I love seashells! I actually had them scattered across the tables, at our wedding reception years ago. I use them today as home decoration. A large glass bowl is filled with them as you enter the house. A sweet reminder of our special day.

Quality Shells has a great variety of beauties that can be used for favors, decor. The site seems to have everything you can think of that has to do with seashells. From Seashell Jewelry to Seashell Curtains to Seashell lamps

Quality Shells also has some great wedding faovr ideas for shells. Read all of them here. Our favorite is below.

Personalized Seashell Placecards ( a great DIY for cheap)

This is a very pretty seashell wedding favor idea that can definitely help you save money, and will light up your guests faces. Rather than setting out those often boring placecards that list the guests name and table number, instead choose 4″ to 5″ White Seashells and buy a black calligraphy pen or black marker that writes with a thin stroke. Carefully write each guests name on the shell and their table number. Imagine setting out these seashell placecards on a plain black tablecloth they’ll definitely have quite the “wow” factor, and your guests can take them home as seashell wedding favors, too!

Santa Barbara Wedding From Jessica Lewis Photo

This world really is small. I actually had the pleasure of meeting Jessica Lewis years back before she was a photographer through one of my best friends. I remembered her name when she sent us this romantic Santa Barbara Wedding.

Maleia and Scott were married at El Presidio de Santa Barbara Chapel, and the reception followed at the Santa Barbara Fess Parker. Both look like gorgeous venues. The entire wedding is so soft and romantic and I have to throw in how great all the bridesmaids look in their Two Birds Bridesmaid Dresses. The soft pink looks stunning on all of them. Of course Maleia looks drop dead gorgeous in her Ines di Santo gown as well.

Maleia and Scott’s flowers are incredibly lovely. The soft pink roses are super pretty. Also loving the Manzanita Tree at the entrance of the wedding ceremony that flawless tie into the table arrangements at the reception. The flowers where designed by Laura Sangas of Cody Floral.

Customized wine bottles, a great touch! The event was coordinated by Kelly of Event of the Season! It really does show when you have an amazing coordinator. A flawless event takes place.
