On Vacation!

Hey ya'll! I'm visiting my fabulous Aunt Mary in Atlanta this week, so there will be a break in posting. Look forward to next week when I will be discussing engagement shoot fashion!

Love,

Inspiration Board #4: {1950's Glamor, Seafoam, Cherry}

One of my all time favorite style icons is Grace Kelly. Her royal wedding to the Prince of Monaco in 1956 was an international sensation, and has provided inspiration to many a stylish bride in the decades since. The inspiration board below is my interpretation of classic GK glamor. It's preppy meets princess, with a throwback to the 1950's. What do you think? Would Grace approve?

Love,

Follow Me on Twitter!!

So, I have been the last holdout among my friends to join Twitter. Why, you ask? Well, to be honest it felt a little narcissistic to think that people care what the heck I am doing every second...and then I remembered that I write a blog, and have a Facebook profile that I update regularly, so obviously I think that people care what I'm doing :) My bestie, @Kari_Roy, assures me that Twitter isn't all about telling people what you are up to--it's also about networking, meeting awesome new brides, and (of course) stalking celebs! Anyway, follow me on Twitter @MarissaMacLeod!

Love,

Web site love: {Net-A-Porter.com Wedding Boutique}

Want to be the chicest bride on the block? Head on over to the fabulous Net-A-Porter.com Wedding Boutique! There you will find many a drool worthy pieces from Christian Louboutin, Chloe, Temperly London, Lanvin, and Vivianne Westwood Gold Label, among many others. One of my favorite parts of the site is the Wedding Magazine, which allows brides to thumb through the latest styles, and purchase their favorites at the click of a button. A word of warning though: you may end up spending your entire wedding budget on this site, so hide your credit cards before you click over!
