Just to top it off.

November 24, '09 by Maggie Lord

Since yesterday I showed off the best way for your feet to look great on your big day today I wanted to show off some small details that can help to complete the look and feel you are going for. All of these looks come from Nordstrom Department Store and would look great if you are the bride, a bridesmaid, a wedding guest or just getting dolled up for a holiday party.





These looks all range from $48.00 to as much as $1,000….enjoy!

If the shoe fits...wear it!

November 23, '09 by Maggie Lord

More and more brides are starting to wear somewhat nontraditional shoes with their wedding dress. Wether it is a bold color or something that sparkles the plain white or off white shoe just does not seem to cut it for the modern bride. I wore a wonderful pair of green Prada shoes (my something borrowed) under my dress and every once in awhile you could just see a little peak of green…so much fun. Below are some pics of my shoes and some other show stoppers.

Here are all of my bridesmaids shoes lined up with my green ones in the middle! All of my brides choose fun shoes to wear with their chocolate brown dresses.

Here are some more great options, all of these wonderful shoes can be found at Nordstroms department store.

A Lake Bride

November 18, '09 by Maggie Lord

All of these gorgeous pictures today come to us from D Charles Photography.

Blue & Yellow

November 16, '09 by Maggie Lord

So along with many of you brides out there- my sister in law is trying to pick colors for her wedding in July. She has toyed with the idea of Blues & Yellows so today i thought I would show off what they could look like. Picking colors can be very difficult since it often sets the tone & the theme for the wedding. It is important to remember that as the bride you have the authority to think outside the box and pick colors that are unique to you and your vision.

Red Inspiration

November 10, '09 by Maggie Lord

Today I thought I would focus on a color that a winter or holiday bride could really dive into. There are so many shades of this wonderful color, but I wanted to pull out the richness of it and also show how great it can look when combined with other colors and patterns. How wonderful could a holiday wedding look with tartan plaids as table cloths or napkins- this could really be a winner!

Wonderful White

November 03, '09 by Maggie Lord

How amazing is this white wedding. I love all of the baby’s breath flowers- I did baby’s breath at my wedding and they really did look amazing. Too much white at a wedding can something come off as modern and stark but this wedding has a great old fashion feel to it. I love the way this wedding looks!
