One of my most beloved childhood stories was Eloise. Lovelovelove. What I love even MORE than the book is Hillary Knight’s illustrations’ color scheme:  Pink (all shades), black, white, yellow. So much to do with such pretty colors! Here’s what I whipped up…

From top left, clockwise:  roses with striped ribbon, black poodle, silk flower bouquet, striped suite, pink and yellow blooms, black striped straws, pretty pink wedding, raspberry chocolate cake, frothy gown, bridal bouquet, pink-tinted gown, plaza print, raspberry dessert shots, striped cake, eloise by kay thompson, printable suite by MS, macaroons, a wedding in paris, tall round cakes, pink wedding with striped details, french dessert tray.

Inspiringly,

I simply had to pick this as this week’s featured photo; I started working with Kendel this past June (she was the first bride I booked to plan for A Delightful Day), and what a lovely lady she is in her Vera Wang gown! I just adore this picture that captures the very essence of their new little family during her and Jeffrey’s ceremony at Cheekwood.

You can’t tell, but it was drizzling chilly rain throughout their ceremony. I love that despite the rain (it is good luck, after all!), nothing could put a damper on their spirits. Thanks to Lotus Blossom Photography for capturing this!

Jordan and Brett’s wedding trailer by FocalPoint Cinematic is just gorgeous. Watch and fawn!

Y’all, I am absolutely swooning over The Bride Room‘s recap of this fall’s Bridal Market!!!

Amsale KILLED with these detailed gowns. The bottom right one, the “Aspen” (with the jewel detail on the neckline), is my FAVORITE! So ballet-perfect!

Monique took strapless to the next level with this beautiful beading and fluffy skirt.

She also showed how to do non-strapless the right way! (Or ways, for that matter!)

And Lela Rose’s illusion necklines make me desperately need to have a winter wedding. Stunning!

I need to try these on RIGHT.THIS.MINUTE.
