What to Wear: Summer Weddings

What to Wear: Summer Weddings

Call me old fashioned, but there is one thing I think you should never do to a bride: Wear white. There are SO many options for dresses that choosing something white or ivory can be seen as a huge slap in the face to the soon-to-be-Mrs. It doesn't matter if it's pure white or white with hot pink piping... just don't do it! Same goes for a bridal shower, engagement party... let the bride have her day, and leave the color (or lack of color?) white to the lady of the hour. Even if she's a bride …

Our Wedding: Part One

We're coming up on our one year anniversary, and it's so fun to look back on August 30 of last year. I'm thrilled to share some of my favorite photos of that day!We chose Hyatt Boston Harbor for our venue for a few reasons, one being the spectacular view of our favorite city from the hotel's patio, the room where we held our cocktail hour, and most of its rooms. Our coordinator at the hotel was incredible, and without her, I would have had to hire two people to do everything she did. (Seriously, …
