My Current Obsession with Color!

by Ashlee

Oh yeah guys! Hope you all are having a great start to summer. This 91 degree high today definitely feels like your typical VA summer day! One of the things I love most about summer is the fact that all the bright color trends come back around. If you didn't know, I LOVE color. I would prefer to be in a bright pinks, blues, and oranges, etc all day then a little black dress. 

Lately I've been totally obsessing with bright, chunky accessories. Some of these are perfect to wear with your wedding dress or even to match with bridesmaids! Check out my favorites below! 

I love this J.Crew necklace. I bought it in this color :)

Lastsly, Kendra Scott has an amazing selection of wedding jewelry. I wore a matching necklace, earrings, and bracelet from her line for my own big day!

What is so great about Kendra Scott is that if you don't like the color options they have available then you can make your own!!

What will you wear for you big day? Will you go bold, or choose something more classic?

Till next time, happy planning!! 

National Doughnut Day!

by Ashlee

HELLO!! Wouldn't you know the time I blog it happens to be National Doughnut Day. I LOVE me some doughnuts. My favorite is one with white icing and rainbow sprinkles from Shoppers. I swear Shoppers has the biggest and best doughnuts around. Would you dare to have doughnuts as your wedding cake in lieu of a traditional cake? This couples below did!

If you are a lover of doughnuts and want to incorporate them into your wedding day did you know there is a bus that can come to your event here in the DMV area?

I hope you all had a long relaxing weekend. The hubs and I went back to Beaufort, SC, where we were married last fall, to visit with my mom's side of the family. I LOVE it there. So peaceful...well except that my sister came with her two dogs. There were more dogs than people in our house. Luckily we spent more time outside than inside. This is my baby Rusty and I trying to get a tan ;)

That was one happy pup!

Well I'm off to get back to work finalizing some agendas and floor plans for my June weddings. 

Till next time, happy planning!!
