Today we are throwing it back to one of our most gorgeous weddings of the year 2015, and one that I was the wedding coordinator for! Black and white with subtle touches of gold, this courtyard wedding displayed a simple yet sophisticated beauty that their guests (and myself) will never forget!

Today's featured bridesmaid gift from The Glittered Gal is just totally darling and if you decide this is the gift for your gals, you're definitely going to want one for yourself too :) I always love jewelry as a bridesmaid gift, because your bridesmaids will actually use it, and this piece is no exception! They come in silver and gold so you can mix and match which works best for each of your girls!
And guess what??

Marilyn Monroe was our inspiration and French Creek Estates was the perfect venue for this bridal shoot to take place. With the styling of wedding planner PS I Love You Events and many other wonderful vendors, Jess H. Photography was able to capture the elegant and romantic side of Marilyn.
Our bride, Katrina looked classy in her Irune by Atelier Pronovias gown from MeaMarie Bridal Atelier. Katrina’s makeup was applied by artist Alexis Marie Makeup, using Dinair, LORAC, and MAC cosmetics. Hair was styled by Hair by Ceann Cherry, and finished off with vintage pale pink roses and gold pins from With Love, Ries.
Flowers by Tiffany pieced together a breathtaking bouquet, table arrangements, and loose florals of white hydrangeas, pink and white peonies, pale pink spray roses, blue thistle, dusty miller, and seeded eucalyptus.
Simply Sweet Cupcakes created a dessert table full of beautiful and delicious baked goods. There was a variety of custom sugar cookies - the stunning cream and pink sugar cookies were even topped with gold pearls! Classic vanilla raspberry cupcakes with white pearls, rosette vanilla buttercream cupcakes with gold pearls, and ruffled pink champagne cupcakes with white pearls were available in mini and standard sizes. And to bring it all together, a beautiful pink champagne cake and tiered vanilla buttercream cake were made. ‘Some Like It Hot’ is a little word play, which came from Chuao Chocolatier’s Sugar & Spice Bonbons that we had fun incorporating into the shoot. Chuao creates all-natural hand crafted artisan chocolates, using ethically sources cocoa. Oh so pretty heart-shaped dark and sweet passion (fruit) favors from Chuao were also included in the shoot. Beautiful milk glass contained a selection of sweets from Sugarfina, a candy boutique which provides fine and high-quality candies from around the world. 24K champagne and gold marshmallows, pink chocolate sparkles, golden truffle eggs, (lipstick) licoricerockies, caramel toffee kisses, pink and white princess pearls, and champagne bubbles were the pretty confections that filled the timeless pieces of milk glass. The milk glass and other décor elements from Restless & Refurbished added to the displays to help create an elegant & vintage feel for the shoot.
