On Saturday, two of my favorite people in the entire world became husband and wife. I was honored to be a part of the beautiful ceremony, which was planned by one of my best friends – Sophee. She did a phenomenal job – all of the details (pictures, flowers, drink mixers, paperie, signage, etc.) were incredible, which makes sense given her love of weddings (click here for one of the many wedding posts she did while working for Camille Styles). The ceremony and reception were held at the gorgeous Laguna Gloria – a perfect venue for any couple’s special night, as evidenced by other gorgeous weddings (here, here and here).
A Divine Pastel Wedding
Love. Love. Love.
Holy cow. Please look at this wedding (from Style Me Pretty). Is it not perfect? I love the pink, green, and peach color combination, with the floral accents seen in the table assignments, centerpieces, and napkins.
A Gold Leaf Lover’s Glory
It’s a dream come true. I love, love, love gold leaf. Combine it with a beautiful shade of navy blue and some fantastic calligraphy (by Plurabelle), and you’ve got a fantastic wedding set. Featured on Oh So Beautiful Paper, designed by the bride herself!
Something Blue
I love the wedding tradition of “something borrowed, something blue.” Especially the blue part, because there is nothing I love more than a pop of blue (check out some of my jewelry for confirmation.) What about those suede turquoise platform pumps below? To die for.

Share Those Snapshots
This year, McKenzie and I have gone to Denver, Chicago, Portland, San Francisco, Washington, D.C., Antigua, and NYC, and while on our trips, we Instagram… a lot. As we get ready to board our flight back to Houston, we’ll send each other all of the pictures from our phones (normally around 15). This is… well, slow – to say the least. I recently read about Capsule on 100 Layer Cake. It’s a brilliant idea. And it’s simple. You create an account, an event and then you get a “join code,” which you share with anyone else with whom you want to share pictures. When you Instagram the pictures, you use this code in the hashtag, and the pictures are automatically added to the joint folder, which you are able to access on the free CapsuleCam app (or on Instagram). From CapsuleCam, you can download pictures that others have added that you like. Voilà, the perfect travel (or event) photo share solution!

Oh well, there’s always a next time!
