Real Wedding: Karen & Nick

I always love seeing wedding photos, but when they come from a reader, and when that reader found her venue through Snippet & Ink, that's even more of a treat! Karen and Nick booked the Acqua Hotel for their May wedding after seeing it in this real wedding feature, and planned a beautiful celebration. (Karen also made an inspiration board to help her vendors understand the vision she had for the day!) I also have to point out Aubrey Trinnaman's gorgeous photography - this is a lady whose work I imagine we'll be seeing plenty of in the future...

Before the ceremony, the bridal party took photos in the Marin Headlands. Though the day started out foggy, the fog lifted in time for the ceremony.

Karen and Nick's budget friendly decor included 36" white balloons and bright orange flowers in IKEA vases.

Karen and Nick used miniature clothespins to attach seating cards to the balloon strings.

Buttons were customized with quotes and photos about Nick and Karen, things like "Virginia is for Lovers," "I Heart NY," and "Coke tastes better out of a glass bottle" (Nick loves Coke, and guests enjoyed Coke in glass bottles, as well as Guarana, a drink from Brazil where Karen is from). Karen says, "The buttons were a hit with guests who added flair to their outfits throughout the evening." (You can have custom buttons made at Busy Beaver Buttons.)

Venue: Acqua Hotel, Mill Valley, CA

Bride's dress / shoes / headpiece: La Sposa / J.Crew / K. Autumn

Bridesmaid dresses / Groomsmen vests: J.Crew

Flowers: Yasmin at Wildflower Event Florals

Cupcakes: Teeny Cake

Congratulations Karen and Nick - thank you so much for sharing your lovely wedding day with us! And thank you to Aubrey Trinnaman for sharing these incredible photos. I really hope we'll be seeing much more of her work soon!

Looking Forward: Spring 2010 Fashion

I don't know about you, but I'm getting a little bit of cabin fever. Fall was beautiful and fun, and the bundled-up coziness of winter was sweet for awhile. But now I'm ready for spring! Last week's taste of warmer weather had me longing for layered tissue tees with lightweight cardigans. Dresses with bare legs- le sigh! Ann Taylor has some great spring looks right now, and I can't wait to get my hands on some of their new styles.

Are you getting restless in this cold weather? What's your most coveted piece of clothing or accessory for this upcoming spring season?

Hello, my name is Sarah...and I've been a bad blogger. For those of you who follow me on twitter, you know that I a) have bronchitis b) just started a new job and c) am in the process of purchasing a house. Needless to say, things have been a little crazy over at Chez SE these last couple weeks. I try and keep up with everybody's blogs and tweets during the day, but I'm not able to post on my own.

So the posts will continue to be less frequent than before (ie 4 posts a day), but I'll try to post more now that I'm starting to get over the bronchitis. This is how my past three weeks have gone: 5:30 get home from work; 7:00 eat dinner; 9:00 go to bed; 6:00 am get up and do it all over again.

Mr. SE and I have been dealing with some complications on the wedding front, along with an ever decreasing budget. I'll be sure to fill you in on the details once things calm down. Please stay around- I promise I'll be back for some extremely fabulous posts next week. (ps- I lost a follower this week! Sad day!). In the meantime, here's some dresses I'm interested in. But wait- Miss SE, why are you posting dresses from DB? I thought you were going to hit up a fab salon where they served champagne and gushed over how beautiful you are. Yes, my friends, I was. That was before Mr. SE and I had a heart to heart about the budget and what is really important: our love, and honoring the friends and family that mean everything to us.

This weekend we're attending a wedding for the Goddaughter of Mom and Dad SE in Virginia. Mama SE is doing a reading in the ceremony- I'll try and take a picture. Before the wedding, mom and I are going to try on my FIRST wedding dress. I wanted to hit up DB first just to get a feel for the style that I wanted. While browsing their paper and online catalogue, I found some surprisingly lovely styles that I'm really looking forward to trying on. Here's some styles I like...
