Inspiration Board: Natural Beach Chic
Tuesday, September 27, 2011 in INSPIRATION 2 comments by Lauren Grove

Happy Tuesday everyone! SURPRISE! An inspiration board! :) I created this board as inspiration for a little something that I’m working on with fellow blogger Megan of Glamour and Grace. I just kind of threw it together a few weeks ago, but it turned out pretty good, so I thought I would share it! We’re calling it “Natural Beach Chic”- not too much of any single element, but just the right amount of each.

Row 1: Table, Bouquet, Tablescape, Shell, Vignette
Row 2: Dress, Bouquet, Bottles, Headband
Row 3: Table, Bottles, Shells, Bouquet, Placesetting

 

So, what do you think? Can you guess what we’re up to? Here’s a hint: it’s going to involve a sleepover, an awesome photographer, and some paint. ;)

Happy Tuesday! In case you haven’t noticed yet, Tuesdays are a little bit of an “inspiration day” here on ELD. Well, I’ve been feeling particularly inspired by patterns lately, and when Anastasia Marie asked me to do a guest post for her while she was away,  I knew that’s what I needed to write about!

The post was published yesterday, so head on over to Anastasia Marie’s blog to check out the little “Inspired By Patterns” board I created!

Thank you to Anastasia for having me! Be sure to show me some love over there! ;)

Proposal Captured By Natalie Franke Photography
Monday, September 19, 2011 in engagement photos 6 comments by Lauren Grove

Alright, I admit- I’m a sucker for proposals. I just LOVE how guys are getting so creative with proposals. Of all the ideas out there, my favorites are those that are captured! The emotion in those moments is so incredibly true and beautiful. When Natalie Franke sent a video and images of this proposal, it was so adorable and I knew I just had to share it with you all! Watch the video below and then take a look at the images- so fun! :)

Wow, I just LOVE their emotion! How awesome is it to capture the elated emotions of JUST getting engaged?! And thanks to Natalie Franke, we’re able to witness it! What a GREAT way to start the week- with a surprise and tons of love! :)

So tell me- what’s your proposal story? Were you able to have anyone capture it, or did you revel in your happiness in private?

Rustic, Elegant Equestrian Inspiration Shoot
Tuesday, September 13, 2011 in Classic 17 comments by Lauren Grove

In case you haven’t noticed by now, I love inspiration shoots! Whether I’m posting it here on ELD or designing one, the opportunity to be able to create and share something that hasn’t been seen yet is so exciting to me! Of course the main objective of every inspiration shoot is to inspire brides with all of the elements- centerpieces, style/theme, colors, etc! Well this rustic, elegant inspiration shoot has the twist of a fun equestrian theme, is gorgeous, and is full of inspiration! Deep reds, beautiful florals, excellent design and most importantly… awesome inspiration!

I love the graphic design for the paper goods and the whole style! A huge thank you to the team of wedding pros who put together this fabulous shoot to inspire!

What do you all think? Are you loving this rustic, elegant inspiration?

    [...] Maybe it’s because Thanksgiving is only two weeks away (!), but we could really go for some pie. Now, wedding pie isn’t exactly a new idea, but how about pie pops? Similar to the cake pops we told you about in September, these bite-sized desserts are a sweet and easy-to-eat twist on a classic. We like the bright bows on the pie pops above, too. Check out more photos from this pie-filled wedding inspiration shoot here! [...]
