It’s another gorgeous Wednesday! Today is sweet and pink for a baby girl shower. I cannot get over these mini cupcakes with florets, big balloons or little flowers in the drawers. And, of course, a good tablescape with a great tassel banner and cotton candy can make any gathering a party!

Have a beautiful week and happy Wedding (and beyond) Wednesday!

Cheers,

Some of the most important people involved in a wedding, other than the bride and groom, are the mothers. It was my mom who I called first after we got engaged. She was the one who helped me pick out my dress. And she was the one who told me how marriage is about seeing the other person’s ugly and loving them anyways. My mom taught me grace, and I am so thankful for that.

What is your favorite thing your mom taught you about love or life?

Happy Wedding Wednesday! And have a Happy Mother’s Day this Sunday!

Cheers,

We all know this weekend is the Derby and what is more fun, and fashionable, that a fabulous hat! Today we styled the party around the hat and inspiration of the races decades ago.

How perfect are these vintage inspired signs? Think invitations, bar menus, etc. Anything printed; we love this style! Who says you have to have red roses? For this party we are in love with the orange and white color palette with this fabulous vase! Of course you can’t forget the mint julep, or dessert!

We’re off to the races! Have a wonderful weekend, and don’t forget to weigh in on today’s FFF!

Happy Wedding Wednesday!

Jose Villa ia amazing. He sees things through his lens that most photographers don’t. He know how to capture light and make it still. He freezes moments that are perfect. Today we didn’t design an event around our FFF image, but wanted to showcase a few of Jose’s images instead. If you can’t get enough of this post then visit his SITE. I dare you to try to stop at one blog post, or one page…

Don’t forget to weigh in on today’s FFF!

If you know anything about CLEvents you know that we love to be unique and create an intimate event for each of our clients – this is exactly BHLDN! With roots from Anthropologie we knew they were set out for success from the start. Most brides associate BHLDN with beautiful fabrics, perfect details and touches for every event; which they are. However, today we want to shine light on a part of BHLDN not many are aware of; rings!

With everything from gorgeous vintage engagement rings to wedding bands and the perfect cocktail ring BHLDN has it! We think this is the perfect source for the bride who wants something one-of-a-kind and appreciates the true definition of vintage. A bride who loves the story of where her ring has been before her and will pass it along as a family heirloom.

If you’re looking for a ring that is just that then visit BHLDN; Facebook, Blog, Instagram, Pinterest or Twitter!

How was everyone’s Earth Day? Did you spend your day volunteering or perhaps making more eco-friendly choices? Many of our brides love to be environment conscious when they plan their day, and we couldn’t be more happy to help! Imagine an outdoor ceremony in a blooming lavender field, the bride in a vintage gown, the guest list on a chalkboard to conserve paper and a delicious wedding dinner with ingredients provided by local farms. Oh my, I think we have ourselves a naturally romantic evening!

Cheers,

Enter Plum Pretty Sugar! Charlotte Hale not only creates the perfect wedding day attire, but interiors as well. If you don’t believe me just hear what PPS has to say:
“A love of beautiful things combined with an impeccable eye, Charlotte created Plum Pretty Sugar to bring cozy comfort, lovely details and blushing touches to wardrobe, adornment and interiors.”

If that doesn’t make you want to jump over to her beautiful website and order the first thing you lay your eyes on, I don’t know what will. The PPS website is full of gorgeous! Her 3 collections house everything from beautiful bridal robes and apparel to something for your flower girls, junior bridesmaids or the little girl in your life.

Still not looking for apparel then check out her interior line. These prints are to-die-for!

We love everything PPS publishes from their Blog to Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest and Twitter! We love even more when our sweet brides wear these beautiful patterns, and we blushed pretty big when we got a sweet note from PPS last night!

Some of you may remember my proposal story and [...]]]> We are so excited to kick off Creative Team Thursday’s where every wedding begins, with the ring! This month we are sharing some of our favorite engagement ring spots starting with one very close to my heart; Bailey Banks & Biddle!

Some of you may remember my proposal story and how my ring came from BB&B! Now, I don’t just love BB&B because that is were by beautiful ring came from (thank you hubby), but because they have it figured out! Their design studio is top of the line, and if you have a chance to visit one of  their locations their first hand help with designing a ring is top notch! These guys and gals have it figured out! Of course I have to give a shot out to the team in Houston at Town and Country Village  where my ring came from!

Guys, if you’re looking for a ring look no further! You can find them on the Web, Facebook and even Pinterest!

Here’s a virtual “high five”  to the Bailey Banks & Biddle teams across the US who are fabulous at what they do!
