    This is one of my favorite luxury wedding invitations that we, at Lela New York have created! I know, I say that a lot, but this wedding invitation really is beautiful!This invitation was created for a destination wedding in Capri, Italy and was inspired by the brides wedding lace wedding gown and purple and lavender details. The silk invitation is a gatefold style and opens in the middle revealing the ultra thick letterpress and foil stamped invitation. The two pockets on each side of the gatefold/book style invite holds the bride's rsvp and reception cards. The inside of this luxury inv...

    If you're one of my brides, you may recall this line from our first meeting, "I don't do themes".   However, I do feel very strongly that your event has to look cohesive and pulled together.  Another of my famous lines, "I don't plop flowers in the middle of the table and not have those colors pulled out through the room".   In weddings, I prefer to refer to these common threads as the details.   Let's take crystals for example.  You can have crystals and gems throughout your event, but we don't want guests to think of this as the "crystal wedding".  The...

    Customizing a simple gown with a bustle of florals down the back is breath taking.  I found this image pinned by The Perfect Palette via Pinterest.  I'm always glad to see those inventive touches each bride puts on her gown--as individual as her thumb print.  Curious to hear from brides-to-be and those of you who have tied the knot: What was your own personal and custom touch . . .?...

    No matter what you do with your wedding, I think finding small ways to make it personal is the most important thing you’ll do. Its hard to admit (I know!) but no one will remember the flowers or the color of the napkins. They will remember what made it your wedding. I wanted to share some of the small things that we did - and some of them we might have been the only ones who knew about them - but made the day our own. Image from Special Effects Photography. First, and by far the most important, was our altar. Both of my parents passed away in the last few years. This would be the first time...

    They aren't beaded or bowed or even embroidered, but they have amazing little details that make them unforgettable. I'm thinking bridal shower, bachelorette, or brunch. Mmmmm. Brunch. Karta and Hera, respectively....

    As I mentioned yesterday, we don't have all of the pictures back yet but our photographers have given us enough preview shots to let the discussion begin! The socks were a huge hit and we also took a picture of my feet in the middle of all of the boys in the wedding party, which I can hardly wait to see. I don't think the ring bearer actually made it down the aisle with the pillow, but it made for some pretty pictures! I love this shot of my dress. It is hanging on the balcony of our honeymoon suite while we're inside getting ready. I didn't even see them take it out of the room! The only prob...

    You know, when it comes down to it, most weddings look the same. What makes your wedding stand out in the minds of your guests {from the other 6 weddings they have already been to this summer} are all the little details.I just had to share this little picture with all of you to demonstrate my point. Now, who in the world would think of putting flowers in a sink basin at their outdoor venue!? The bride who wants no detail to be overlooked, that's who. Granted, no guest will walk away saying, "Remember those flowers the bride had in the sink basin outside?! Oh, those were just lovely." But, once...

    I know this is a "bad" photo because that whole flowery corner is "blown out," but I love that about it. How luxurious to be sun-blinded in February! Blossom bolero...ivory silk taffeta, alençon lace, vintage velvet flowers....
