Love in the Cherry Blossoms

Cherry blossoms are always reminiscent of new love, which makes them a perfect backdrop for engagements, especially if you can time it right for fully blooming trees! We are madly in love with Sarah and Peter’s engagement shot by Alders Photography at Bright Ranch. There’s nothing lovelier than a field full of flowering trees, no?

BRAVO BRIDE

We’re very excited to share with you today a site that is beyond helpful for both current and past brides! Bravo Bride is an online resale boutique that lets you sell a wedding dress, jewelry, or event wedding decor! Almost all items are free to list except for wedding dresses and wedding/engagement rings. (There is a one time fee of $19.95 to list those.) What’s great is that items never expire and will remain on the site until sold, and Bravo Bride does not take a commission on sold items.

Obviously you can sell AND buy used wedding dresses, so we thought we do a round up of some favorite finds currently on sale! You’ll love the prices! To get started selling, head here! To get started shopping, head here!

Prescott Arizona Wedding by Sara Hasstedt

We’re always on the hunt to the little tidbits that make each wedding story unique! One of our favorite details about Chanel and Jeff’s wedding is the story behind Chanel’s wedding gown. Apparently she spotted her dress at Unique Vintage, a boutique in Burbank. The dress was at a sample sale, so she nabbed it, even though her and Jeff weren’t officially engaged yet. She secretly hid her find under their bed until he proposed. When it’s too good to pass up, sometimes a gal has to act fast.

We thought you’d enjoy checking out some of the images from their beautiful wedding, all shot on film by Sara Hasstedt.

Afternoon Croquet + Nuptials

We absolutely adore sunny Florida weddings! Nicole and Jason’s wedding, planned by Brittany and Terri of Tickled Pink Brides features some absolutely darling details and ideas that perfectly match their fun loving personalities. Lawn games served as party activities, while guests went back and forth between the dance floor, croquet, and cigars! Check out all of the lovely images shot by Concept Photography.
