S&F Shoot up on Elizabeth Anne Designs

It has been a crazy but fabulous week, but I’m sorry that my blogging has slacked a little because of it!  We were thrilled to hear this weekend that our vintage inspiration shoot was going to be featured on Elizabeth Anne Designs, it was definitely a work of love by many vendors in both Cape Girardeau and St. Louis, Missouri.  Untamed Heart Photography was the very talented photographer of this shoot and this shoot was definitely her brain child and she worked crazy hard to bring everyone together.  I was honored to help style the shoot and provide my own projects and touches to a group of very talented vendors.  Check out the entire post here to see all the gorgeous pictures!!

Invitation Monday – Our Wedding

Before we announce the winners of the 2 hour engagement session from Derren Raser Photography at noon today, I wanted to share a few of the fabulous paper goods from our wedding.  Our entire paper suite was created by Angela Brewer from Todd Studios and they are my favorite details from the wedding.  Each of the pieces in the below photograph were stacked with the green bellyband with our fabulous monogram that Angie created.

To go along with our lavender sachets, we also wanted to tie in that element of sewing to our programs.  I came up with the brilliant (though mom would say crazy) idea to sew the programs together instead of using the traditional ribbon.  They are truly their own works of arts, and I couldn’t have done this without the help of my mom every step of this process.  But it certainly was fun finding the right color thread and asking those ladies at the shop what needle could handle three pieces of card stock!

Bridal Jewelry

Wedding Jewelry was the hardest decision I made when planning for my wedding.  For me, I had so much detail going on on the dress, I need something that really complemented the beading.  Enter Lacey, a fantastic designer that is located in St. Louis, Missouri who sells her pieces at a local store called Graphic Traffic.  She took one night to look at a picture of my wedding dress, and by the next day had created the piece you see below.  She had already created my bridesmaid’s jewelry, which you can see on Todd Studio’s blog.

Depending on the style of your dress, there are many different options out there for your wedding jewelry.  I wanted to share some of my favorites today with you.  These would be great pieces for a bridal shower, your rehearsal dinner, and yes, even your wedding day if you so choose.

Kendra Scott is an artist from Austin, Texas who I have followed since I lived there.  She creates amazing pieces, that are very unique and colorful.  She created a bridal line and the below left necklace is from that collection and is called the Merit Pendant Necklace in Sky Blue.   She updates her line constantly, but the pieces on the right are an example of other types of jewelry Kendra offers.

Etsy is another great place to find jewelry for your wedding day.   So many talented artists that create earrings, necklaces, and bracelets, many of who will customize something to what you need if you start a conversation with them.  The below are a few pieces by Noaki Jewelry.  I am a huge fan of Victorian and Art Deco pieces, and Noaki has so many beautiful things to choose from for your wedding day.  I mean that hair clip below is stunning!

Vintage Wednesday

Vintage bouquets are a big trend this year.  Below are two different ways of creating this look for yourself.  The first row uses doorpulls from Anthropologie.  Take a look at the different options that Anthropologie has online here.  The second way to create this look is by using vintage brooches as shown in the second row below.  These could be a brooch from your mother or grandmother, or ones that you have collected that fit your style.  There are a number of sources for finding brooches to use if you don’t have any family ones, search for vintage brooches on Etsy or browse through your local antique malls.
