non white wedding dresses & the vera wang color collection

Why should the bridesmaids have all the fun? Brides who love color can personalize their wedding looks with a splash of chic, festive color.

Here’s one of our favorite mood boards, from Brooklyn Bride.

And bridal goddess Vera Wand has just debuted a bridal collection full of color.

And fashion bible Lucky.com posted this cool slideshow of non-white wedding dresses.

If you love colorful bridal attire, you might just love color in your wedding rings. Here are a few options for rings with color, that are still timeless and refined.

In fact we love “Color” as a wedding theme. Just check out our featured image, from Green Wedding Shoes. We love guest portraits at weddings, when they’re done creatively. And these guests are just perfection. Pure sunshine on a cloudy day.

Do you love nontraditional color for weddings?

Autumn Wedding Style

This Sunday marks the first day of fall, so let’s talk about fall wedding style, shall we?

This Australian farm wedding has it all for fall. A rustic, personalized cake, a dramatic venue, a lacy, but demure wedding dress, a bouquet of saturated colors and original textures, and that warm sunset lighting we love.

This one is hip and amazing! The bride’s glasses and lipstick look so cool with her floral wreath and sultry dress, and the color story is incredible.

A bold lip and sexy hair is always in season, but especially for fall, don’t you think?

And how good are these tweed details for bride, groom and attendants? So chic as an alternative or an addition to swishy, silky things.

Sometimes engagement shoots can be a little sugary and over the top, so we love the refined simplicity of this one. Work those stiletto pumps, lady!

Pumpkin centerpieces too twee for you? Don’t judge till you see these. White pumpkins are the perfect blend of minimal and adorable.

So how are you making the most of the crisp, lovely days of fall?

Wedding Inspiration: Bollywood, Indigo, Bohemian & More

Let’s savor the last weekend of the summer with a “summer sip that’s a little bit spicy and a little bit sweet.”

We’ve found so many epic wedding inspirations, we’re making a post of it. So just sit back and live vicariously through wedding ideas that exemplify pure style, joy and romance. We hope your weekend is beautiful!

The new BHLDN collection has some really chic, luxurious dresses. The intricate beading reminds us of some of our more sumptuous designs.

This Indigo-themed wedding inspiration is so fresh and beautiful. We love it.

This gold one we also love.

Here’s a real wedding we absolutely love. Every picture is just so full of joy and personality, it just doesn’t get any better. And the featured image above shows the incredible tree from the ceremony.

The headpieces and hair are a little silly, but this Bohemian wedding inspiration has the biggest, best bouquets. We’re in love!

And our favorite part of this Bollywood wedding inspiration is also the bouquet. We didn’t think jewels and flowers could be so perfect together.

Bright objects hypnotize the mind. But we already knew that.

Manhattanhenge & Sleeping Porches

“Inspiration exists, but it has to find us working.” ― Pablo Picasso

This week we collected a list of inspiring links. Here’s to drinking in all the beauty and emotion life has to offer. Salut!

This is inspiring. 19 successful people who struggled in their 20s.

And here are 30 photos that capture the best moments in a person’s life. So beautiful.

It’s time for Manhattanhenge! Twice a year, the sunset lines up with the east-west grid of New York City, and the golden rays shoot down the streets. It’s happening today and Saturday at about 8:20pm.

Great idea for a country house. Sleeping porches.

This Bohemian Summer Wedding inspiration is really beautiful. We love the unexpected cool color palette. And here’s another wedding with cool hues and a moody, cloudy feel.

These jadeite tumblers have that minty absinthe-colored cool, too. We’ d love to see them with little tabletop posy arrangements.

You know we love black. We haven’t tried it, but we think it looks so chic and sophisticated on walls.

We’re inspired to make everyday things totally healthy and delicious. These kale chips are supposed to be the best.

And since nothing is more inspiring than beauty and great design, here’s an amazing Lanvin wedding dress. And here’s another perfect Lanvin.

Let’s have an incredible weekend!

Trend We Love: Black Wedding Dresses & Details

It’s no surprise that so many luxury brands use the color black. It evokes sleek good taste and sophistication, and it goes with everything. It’s black tie and the little black dress.

We love basic black because it makes our diamonds really pop!

Remember when Mr. Big bought Carrie Bradshaw a black diamond engagement ring? It sent the message that he truly “got” her like no other man could.

Courtney from Brooklyn Bride put it this way, “If you’re looking for color scheme that’s truly effortless, black and white really is the simplest and most direct route to a chic and sophisticated event.”

Simple, chic and sophisticated is exactly what we love, so here’s our list of Black & White inspiration!

When we blogged about colored wedding dresses, we didn’t see this coming! Here’s Shenae Grimes in her daring black wedding dress.

And Brooklyn Bride’s perfect black and white mood boards.

We’re dying for these black and gold details!

And lastly, we can’t talk about color without showing you some of our colors! This year, we’ve introduced some rosy loveliness into our designs. Rose gold is a fun, romantic twist for brides who want something classic, but a little different.
