Miss Lovely got Married & take Photos

a bride and her dress

2009-06-10T22:14:00.003-04:00

i ran into a friend of mine who his making her own dress. well she is constructing the muslin and having someone else cut the silk and sew the dress together. i thought that was a pretty awesome idea. i know that M already knows how to sew so this would be a pretty simple task for her. even though i am not sewing my own dress it has been really awesome working with Gina to construct something that will be totally unique and true to my silly character. my mom was kind of shocked when she saw it on me for a fitting. at least we both knew where i was coming from when i described the dress as a Spanish Pauliana.

wedding feet

2009-06-10T22:01:00.004-04:00

i was in my pals wedding shop the other day and this bride-to-be and i were comparing fiances stories about how boys act like they don't care about wedding stuff but really secretly do..
i told her about his dislike for a tie that would somehow match my dress, and she told me about how her fiance wanted to wear hoodies to the ceremony. we laughed and then told each other how funny that was because now we know the boys are totally secretly into it. how did we know this well, my sweet nothing came to me and said what tie should he wear and wouldn't it be totally awesome if his tie some how matched my dress! (ha i had to laugh and let him think he was a genius) her love muffin told her he bought a pair of 300 dollar shoes because they looked cool even though he could not feel his pinkie toe on the left foot.

Wedding POP-UP Shop

2009-06-10T21:58:00.002-04:00

Well here's a take on the old pop-up shop meme you probably didn't see coming. Starting this month, Brooklyn's 303 GRAND gallery (at 303 Grand Street, natch), is transforming itself into a mini storefront wedding chapel, The Brooklyn Pop-Up Wedding Shop. Teaming up with Brooklyn Bride, The Wedding Library and, wait for it, Martha Stewart Weddings, the space will offer quickie weddings with a little more style and sweetness than that City Hall nuptials you might have been planning. Consider it a "boutique wedding" with all the last-minute thrills of a trip to the Courts. In addition to offering basic marriage services to the City, The Brooklyn Pop-Up Wedding Shop will start the month with a series of "wedding events"—we're guessing this means dress exhibitions, cake tastings, and free Champers—and cap off their stand with a free giveaway wedding style by Martha Stewart Weddings. Just think, your "special day" is just a quick ride on the L away. Hell, you could slam a few honeymoon Tecates at Union Pool afterwards!

the outside element

2009-06-10T21:48:00.005-04:00

so I've been totally looking at how people decorate their weddings when getting married outside and i can honestly say I've seen some pretty radical ideas.

check out these awesome haystacks covered in vintage blankets as chairs

awesome chandeliers hanging outside, hello totally my favorite

i could get down with this outside wedding set up

this reminds me of the full moon resort , where we are getting married

and of course Moroccan style lanterns are a personal favorite!

girls vs boys

2009-06-10T21:41:00.003-04:00

wow i can't even imagine having that many women as bridesmaids. let alone having them all wear and be cool with wearing the same dress. however the photos do look sort of amazing!
check out the boys patch work pants, wonder who's idea that was!

how much do you love me

2009-06-08T17:42:00.002-04:00

enough to write it inside your jacket!

2009-05-21T07:40:00.004-04:00

yes! finally finished with classes and one of the many things i have learned besides an overwhelming amount of knowledge on fabric and denim washes is how to do this little trick with my camera. now if only santa came in june and gave me a canon g10 i would be totally grateful and make photos like this all day long.

Some help from Flood Creative

2009-05-21T07:29:00.004-04:00

these pieces by my friend Katie Decker from flood creative have always blown me away. well lucky for me i have enlisted her help with invitations. i am not telling what amazing ideas we came up with until you get one in the mail, but lets just say you might need to run out and buy a frame to hang it on your wall!

sunshine and 70's

2009-05-20T09:43:00.005-04:00

i love this picture so much. one: i loved going to theme parks as a kid and riding these rides, two: these look like tea cups to me (which i love) and three: the hue makes me think of summer and what's not fun about summertime.

antique jewels and gems

2009-05-20T00:35:00.004-04:00

these could be interesting pieces to wear with your wedding dress.

i have been coveting jewelry that is reworked and antique lately. something about these pieces make me excited to hunt through my drawers and transform jewelry that has been sitting still.
i found this etsy seller purevile today and like the creepy pictures along with the special jewels.

12 more days until my bridal tea party

2009-05-20T00:25:00.005-04:00

i can hardly wait i am so excited. i have been running around like a mad man making sure my house is clean. it was originally at a pals casa and had to move as her landlord decided he need to store his massive motorcycles in the backyard. it was kind of a bummer until we realized that it might be easier for the venue to just move to my house. granted there is no huge backyard filled with plants but i do have a roof deck that has a beautiful skyline and my sweet brother is bringing up his hammock stand so my lovely ladies and i can lounge in style.

and if all of that was not enough i am excited to have my mom here in town for the whole thing!!

black diamond rings

2009-05-20T00:18:00.004-04:00

these black diamond rings in rose gold are kinda my favorite thing at the moment. to bad i did not see them sooner as we have already picked out our rings from Doyle & Doyle.
but maybe someday in the future i could get one of these sweet little babies from blanca monros gomez to add to my collection.

cottage roses

2009-05-18T19:45:00.004-04:00

my sweet adorable friend shoshana got this boutique from a colleague of ours to congratulate her on her recent engagement. i have never seen such pretty sweet smelling roses before!

Pretty lights

2009-05-18T19:33:00.004-04:00

a friend of mine has these tea cup lights that i think are absolutely amazing and beautiful.

i have been looking at lights to try and hang up for the tea party as well as full moon resort and they are a small fortune. especially the ones i fancy which my pal anonymous agent scored last year for her patio. i came across these really lovely flower looking lights which are actually egg crates fitted over white lights. how ingenious is this!!! i have to say problem solved!

Si Belle by Sibel Mesta

2009-05-18T19:21:00.004-04:00

h

these panties are totally the cutest things i have ever seen for a grown up lady. i am pretty sure when i was young i had something like this with little roses. is it strange that i want them again.
besides you need to have something sexy to wear underneath that white gown, why not some pink with roses.

pink peonys

2009-05-18T19:11:00.005-04:00

are kind of my favorite flower at the moment.

When you get to San Fransico put a flower in your hair

2009-05-18T19:03:00.003-04:00

i have been in love lately with huge flowers in my hair. Something about it makes you feel sexy and feminine. I have been looking at all these lovely photos of this bride and groom and thinking about wearing a flower too.

love love love love love

2009-05-18T18:56:00.002-04:00

while we were at full moon this weekend there was a couple getting married and his last name happened to be love!

themes

2009-05-18T18:53:00.004-04:00

i found these today on etsy and love love love the Eiffel tower postcards.. i am working this into my invites somehow.. actually i know what i am doing but it is going to be a surprise so i can't tell you at the moment.

FIFI LAPIN

2009-05-18T18:43:00.004-04:00

i know this has nothing to do with weddings, but these little bunnies are my current obsession at the moment.

how can you not love all of these little drawings by fifi lapin... if only i could add these to my wedding registry.. hee hee

Full Moon Resort

2009-05-18T18:26:00.004-04:00

this weekend we were at full moon resort in BIg Indian, New York. It was so green and lush with tiny little flowers all over. We had fun walking the grounds trying to figure out if we should get married by a pond, a stream, or in a field. It looked so lovely everywhere we were that it was very hard to decided which place was the best.

Pablo & Jessica

2009-05-18T18:21:00.004-04:00

how cute are these two. they got married at full moon resort in upstate new york where we are having our wedding. i love that she is leaning into him during the ceremony. these two are too cute!

weekend in upstate new york

2009-05-18T16:56:00.001-04:00

we were away this weekend in upstate new york for our tasting. the food was beyond awesome as was the weather. it only makes our decision of having the wedding upstate so much more real and exciting.
this is just a tiny sneak peek to how truly goofy we really are.

vacation time

2009-05-13T08:09:00.004-04:00

sorry i have not been bloggin lately. i wish that my excuse was that i was on vacation but sadly it is work, wedding and school that is eating up my time. soon i will come to the end of one of those things.

Happy Cinco De Mayo

2009-05-05T14:40:00.002-04:00

Frida here with her husband Diego of many times (as they were married and divorced several times). She is still lovely and although her story was kind of tragic they had a really awesome love story despite what we all know.

2009-05-05T01:37:00.002-04:00

circus porcelains

2009-05-05T01:29:00.004-04:00

circus porcelains by studio violet are totally my favorite thing at the moment. how can you not love a circus inside a sugar bowl, so adorable one and two a saucer that has a mustache !!

Oh Audry

OMG SHOEZ

2009-05-05T01:14:00.004-04:00

i try not to play into the cliche' that i am a girl therefor i love shoes but sadly it is true. i think my love for shoes has only grown fonder as my foot size has not changed since 5th grade and so i still have my very first shoe purchase which was a pair of sweet penny loafers i bought back then with my babysitting money..
here are some really amazing white shoes that would look awesome under any dress

or you could rock n roll alittle color too which would be awesome.. and yes i own these!!!

Red Flower

2009-05-05T00:51:00.004-04:00

Japanese Peony flower candle

Champa Organic Eau de Toilette

Tangerine Fig Butter Creme

Italian Blood Orange Face Wash

I really love all the red flower products. i remember when i first moved to NYC and would walk around in Soho and came upon the red flower store. they gave you the loveliest samples and the fragrance coming from the store was totally amazing. You can find them at Barney's or their own store. A must have for anyone that likes to smell pretty!

classic invitations

2009-05-04T22:20:00.006-04:00

I found these beautiful and classic invitations on etsy while hunting for some stationary. How i wish they were within by budget or that i lived in Belgium where they are produced. Even the menu cards are so very lovely.

2009-05-04T16:54:00.002-04:00

MANIC MONDAYS

2009-05-04T16:39:00.005-04:00

aside from loving this photo and her gorgeous gown, i have been running a lot lately and not in the athletic way. it seems when you only have 5 months to go on all your planning suddenly you realize holy Jesus i need to make invitations and get them out!!

where i really want to be right now is somewhere that i can appreciate the pinks and purples in the sky
I've also been obsessing over bows in my hair and am trying my hand at making some headbands with huge bows on them for the bridal luncheon and to cure my obsession of always over flowing my plate
i heart chocolate banana bread as well, and am going to make Jessica oatmeal apple cookie to bring to the hospital later
the back side of things can also be very lovely
this photo makes me laugh
i also need to make labels for the apple butter my mother has made for guests
and have been doing all this while listening to beach house non stop
and lastly, i received a pair of free 3rd ward sunnies for May bike month and people were poking out the lenses. it was funny for five minutes until every single person decided it was the look and then i felt bad for all the lost and broken lenses that went to waste because of hipsters.

Color Palette

these could be awesome wedding dresses.. how amazing is this blue one. something about it is so soft and calming.

tour de force

2009-05-01T23:19:00.007-04:00

these hats/headbands are so amazing. i have a confession to make that i have been lusting over them and am trying to figure a way to use one of these on the wedding day. i mean i know i could just wear one but to do the hat justice and myself, i need it to be the right one. how beautiful they all are.

height issues

2009-04-29T19:31:00.005-04:00

So, I've been cruising the internetz for some awesome shoes to wear under my wedding attire and i have to say all the traditional wedding shoes make me want to puke on myself. i know that i want something with height (of course) and possibly a wedge because i am going to be walking around in some country grass and something that is absolutely not freaking white!!! here is my issue all of the wedges i have come across are to sandal-ly and make me feel like i should be on the beach or a hooker in Miami. the other problem i am faced with is my husband-to-be is just a teeny tiny bit taller then me so if i were to wear some outrageous heel then it might look like i married a midget... is there someone out there that can make a shoe for me?

Sarah Seven

2009-04-29T19:21:00.005-04:00

Are these not the apple of your eye.. Sarah Seven was found by a good friend of mine who is also engaged and looking for that unique wedding dress. All the credit goes to her for showing me this awesome designer and the price is to good to be true, cutting your normal wedding gown by something like 75%.
I am really in turmoil now that i look at these hot sexy short dresses and wonder if what i really desire is a short dress!! Being an average height person short has always been a friend to me.

2009-04-23T21:49:00.003-04:00

This weekend we had a part in the making of a video about what you love!! How cute is that. The singer Cariad Harmon has teamed up with Videographer Rachel Le Feuvre to make this very special video. The Husband -to-be and I were filmed showing what we love most... you guessed it our pup, LUCY! He also had my heart Teeshirt on I had made for him to represent love as well. Listen to Cariad's song and read their blog.

check out our cute pals that were also apart of the video.

I don't know this person getting married but my friends do and i happened to come across her photos. I love to look at photos of real people getting married to see what they have put together and the joy on everyone's faces. I think the dress she is wearing is absolutely amazing and the table of pies is still blowing my mind.

Deborah

2009-04-22T11:24:00.004-04:00

my pal Deborah got married last year, and even though i didn't make it to the wedding the pictures look like it was a fantastic gathering of friends and family. She looks so gorgeous. If you know her tomboyish nature, i couldn't have imagined her wearing a white dress( i can't imagine myself in a wedding dress for that matter), but i must stay she looks stunning!

Renewing your vows

2009-04-20T23:47:00.004-04:00

after three years of marriage these two lovelies decided to renew their vows by driving through a wedding chapel in Las Vegas. What a sweet idea. You can see how much they are still in love.
I really dig this idea of renewing your vows.

cookies

2009-04-20T23:22:00.002-04:00

these macaroons are so yummy. there is even one called wedding cake. we are thinking about having cookies as the present you give to people at the end of the night. my question is how do you choose which cookies to put in bags? i am a desert lover so i am usually into any cookies.
we where thinking chocolate chip, oatmeal and maybe peanut butter.. or is sugar cookies better then peanut butter? should there not be so many choices...

on another note my pal Amanda designed insomnia cookies logo and i just sent a box of cookies to the fiance's work today. (sometimes you just have to do nice things for people). Anyways he brought the rest of them home which was like two(there were 20 in a box), and oh man were they delicious. So if your thinking about ordering cookies and having them delivered in Manhattan this place is the place to order!!

something new with I DO

2009-04-20T22:46:00.003-04:00

I really think this is super duper awesome. I've been looking at invitations and can't really find any I like and have come to the conclusion that I am going to try and make my own some how. If you know me then this is comical. Why because I procrastinate on so many things, but this I can't. This is so simple it might just work!

hats for the bridal luncheon

2009-04-20T20:43:00.005-04:00

so for the bridal luncheon i was hoping the theme would be hats, pearls and gloves. now since we live in NYC this could mean some fun fashion accessories. i have been looking for hats to wear as i have the pearls and came across these.. i can't for the life of me decided which one i like better.

this last one my pal Shoshana picked up in a sweet pink to wear to the shower.
so lovely, via the pixie market.

Music

2009-04-15T21:30:00.005-04:00

what music will you dance to at your wedding?

It has been fun trying to pick songs to play for the wedding. when i did an itunes word search for love through my music this is what my playlist would be:

i gave my love a diamond ring: Them
the music lovers: Destroyer ( one of my favorite songs)
crown of love: Arcade Fire
lovely day: Bill Withers ( come on this is to prefect)
