So excited to share the wedding of one of our bride bloggers today! As you know, the lovely Emily shared her wedding planning process here on BSB (read all her posts here) and she’s back today to share her special day with us! I absolutely love the look of everything, from the mismatched bridesmaid dresses, [...]
I’m kind of on the fence about wedding favors. When I have attended weddings in the past, the happy couple has given out Jordan Almonds in tiny bags, bubbles, candy and personalized champagne glasses. The best favor I ever received was a copy of a photobooth photo from a cousin’s wedding two years ago. The [...]
I’m not a high-maintenance girl. I have a fairly extensive wardrobe because I [sometimes] enjoy shopping for clothes and accessories and am endlessly attracted to bright colors in most any form. Even then, however, I am a fairly simple gal. I generally wear solid-color clothing paired with khakis, black pants, etc. and am not very [...]
Happy FRIDAY ladies! I’ve got some fun news, we are opening admissions for a new group of Bride Bloggers to share their fabulous budget weddings here on BSB! Our current group of brides is almost done with each of their weddings, so it’s time to bring in a new group!! We are looking for five [...]
This month Stockroom Vintage is teaming up with Tammy at Antebellum Photography to offer 10 styled holiday mini-shoots at the Country Cove Christmas Tree Farm in Murfreesboro, Tenn. I’ll be styling each 20-minute shoot myself with some of my favorite vintage pieces from the Stockroom Vintage inventory. If you’re interested in scheduling a photoshoot for [...]
I have a lovely little wedding for you today by Carrie Butler Photography in Utah! This couple chose a reception location that was already lush and beautiful with flowers to save on the cost of decorating. I just love the warm, sunny, happy feeling that this day seems to encompass. I hope you enjoy this [...]
I’ve realized that having a full Catholic mass for our wedding might leave a few of our guests confused about what to do and when to do it. If you’ve ever been to a Catholic mass (or probably any church), there is a lot of sitting, standing, kneeling, responding, etc. I didn’t want people to [...]
I knew my mother was crafty but she even surpassed my expectations on this one by throwing me the cutest bridal shower. Because we moved across Washington State one year ago and we have family all over Washington and Oregon, my mother threw me a bridal shower on the east side of the state and [...]
Wishing another of our lovely bride bloggers, Erin, the most wonderful, happiest wedding day ever! We are all thinking of you today as you celebrate!
When we were reviewing our reception setup with our site manager, she asked if we wanted to do a head table or sweetheart table. We kind of looked at eachother blankly because we hadn’t really thought about it. Eileen proceeded to show us photos of what the different setups would look like in the room. [...]
I couldn’t be happier with the way our winter wedding invitations turned out. I think mailing out your invitations is the ultimate realization that “OMG I’m getting married … soon!” We were aiming to send them out at the three-month mark. But, the major project they became got started one week late because the small letterpress [...]
We’ve all seen those super fun photobooth pictures from a wedding or party! They look something like this: We wanted to do something similar at our wedding, so we took to finding a way to do it with items we already had and using the Internet as our guide. Nick gave me a very nice [...]
