Kaylie + Cory | Crestview, Florida

So happy to spend this little time off before Christmas blogging the rest of my 2015 events! I had such a wild, quick, busy, but FUN {first} year doing wedding florals/planning/styling and at times I felt on top of the world! And others, so low that I didn't think I would ever get back up. It's all part of learning, failing, growing. With that being said, Kaylie + Cory's wedding was one I was so proud to be a small part of. It is mirrored in my 2016 goals because of it's authenticity, intimacy, simplicity, and gorgeousness. The bride and groom, and all their guests and loved ones were there for exactly the right reason… to witness Cory marry Kaylie in front of God. 
Kaylie chose the FABULOUS Jennifer Blair Photography to capture her wedding day and I don't know how that little blondie is able to capture every special moment so flawlessly, but she does! Can't wait to work with her again! Thank you to the lovely Sarah Bretz for assisting with this wedding!

I love reliving this special day through these perfect photos! Kaylie was a stunning bride, and their day just radiates joy! She has become such a good friend of mine and I can't wait to see where their marriage journey takes them. She's also a kickass photographer herself and I can't wait for more fun weddings together. All the best wishes to this sweet couple!
This wedding can also be seen in Style Me Pretty.

Wedding Invitation Inspiration | Mint + Gold

Happy Friday!
I hope you have had a great week. I had a fun one designing a few different projects, ordering oodles of white florals, and tackling a few to-do's! Jane (Southern Calligraphy) and I designed and printed escort cards and programs for a Massachusetts bride and invitations for a Fairhope bride. I absolutely love teaming up with Jane and putting our skills to work! The mix of calligraphy and typography is definitely my favorite, and Jane nails the calligraphy every time!

I am thrilled that I will finally recieve Jen and JP's envelopes and gold ink in the mail today. I plan to get some R&R this weekend and do some addressing while my husband goes fishing! I cannot wait to get their invites back, they are being letter-pressed by one talented guy. I know they will be beautiful and of course, I can't wait to share the final product with you!
Below is a little inspiration behind their suite design. I loved the simplicity we decided on, while still incorporating fun touches of true gold and soft mint. I can't wait for them to wed later this Fall!
