Going to a chapel...
Wahoo! We are in Vegas, and I can only hope to see a wedding as pretty as this one. Not only is it as cute as can be, AND the photog’s BFFs, but it is a photo shoot for the day after…and she’s calling it “Rock the Dress”. Loving this- at the Neon Museum.
Some serious love right here by Starseed Photography.

This One's For The Boys
I love the non-traditonal look of a Groom’s boutineer. From the fragrant herb of rosemary, to the sweet look of succulents. Think outside the box…and what can you pin???
You can even learn how to make your own at Simply Natural Events!

It finally happened. After 4+ years of being a daily stalker reader of Style Me Pretty, team SMP has finally published their very own make-you-weak-in-the-knees hardcover book, and I got the chance to get inspired by the one and only Abby Larson.
Get you very own copy, and be prepared drool over 256 pages of pure wedding perfection.
AHHHH-Mazing!

Back In Action
It’s January 12th. I haven’t blogged in four whole months. I am horrified. Holiday happened at the daily grind…starting…yep four months ago, and my life became consumed by online retail. LITERALLY C-O-N-S-U-M-E-D. So now that I have finally found some “me time”, LLL is back.
And my goals are being put into action.
Blog more.
Take a vacation.

A Pintastic Wedding
Yes. I said it. Pintastic.
Pinterest: “Puh.in.ter.est”
1. A Social Networking site that allows you to figuratively “pin” pictures of your likes/interests in a simple, organized fashion
2. A Free Wedding planner
In short, if you aren’t on Pinterest…your wedding planning is likely in shambles..or perhaps that was just my personal experience :)
So how is...

Once upon a Ring Bearer
My Oh My…Where do I start?
First, let me apologize for my disappearing act. It has been almost two months since my last post (Which by the way, has been my favorite post to date…I guess it tired me out). I will spare you all the excuses and you can consider this my little gift to you because unfortunately, I am really good at making excuses and could list a million reasons as to why...

We wouldn’t change a thing about this wedding dress, by Christos. Between the full skirt with allover lace, and sheer lace overlay on top of the sweetheart neckline, we can’t decide which detail makes this dress all that and more.

Manic Mondays
Here is a Manic Monday tip, to keep you brides calm…from waxing guru Hayley!
How do those picturesque brides always manage to look so glowing and dare I say it? Hairless! To get smooth legs, underarms, and even bikini line for the big day, there are many different options. Shaving causes irritation, redness, razor bumps, nicks, and cuts. And don’t forget you have to keep up with it...

Stuff It
What could better than not doing dishes and eating your favorite comfort food? Mac ‘N Cheese in a Tomato- that’s what!
Here is how you hollow out those juicy tomatoes:
Using a serrated knife cut off the top 1/2 inch of the tomato (from where the stem was). You can put the top aside, you don’t need it anymore.
Now with the tomato base, move the knife along the inside of the...

DIY: Tissue Paper Pom Poms
I was at a bridal shower this past weekend for my cousin, and one of the decorations used in transforming the venue was tissue paper pom-poms. You can purchase kits from Martha Stewart, or if you are looking to save a little money you can make your own!

It is the simplicity that we love, that is behind this dress by Carol Hannah. It reminds us of Carrie Bradshaw, with that easy top, and extraordinary skirt. Even the draping flow of the skirt, is just right.

Pop the Bubbly!
Champagne is hands down my cocktail of choice. And I use any chance I get to to break it out. Besides the taste itself…it has the perfect amount of fizz and I come sprinting (gracefully of course), when I hear the pop it makes when the cork is released. We have all seen the regular sized bottles, but what makes champagne so much more fun is the other sizes: the big bottles for big fun, which...
