PUBLISHED: THE KNOT WINTER 2011


Photography: Scott Andrew Studio

On newsstands now, so be sure to pick up a copy of The Knot Winter 2011 "Special Edition New York". This wedding was super fun to work on. I was originally brought onto the job to help with the "Day of", but because the bride and I were having so much fun together we ended up working on all aspects together. It was especially heartwarming because the couple (like myself), decided to venture in the event planning/design world after their wedding. Love that, love them!

FEATURED: STYLE ME PRETTY NYC


Photography: Scott Andrew Studio

I seriously can not even put to words how excited I was to work on this concept shoot. First and foremost because I would get to work with dear friends and industry favorites. Secondly, because I felt as though this concept was one we had never seen before on any bridal blog.

This notation of waking up to the most beautiful ring and all of your wedding details planned out by the man you love. Best part- this wedding is just for the two of you. You get to savor the entire day and slowly become "Perfectly Undone". Layer by layer. We wanted to push the boundaries of what we usually see out there on blogs and give readers a sneak peak into what might unfold...

This notation can also translate beautifully to vow renewals, elopements, anniversaries, etc!

Okay, I'll stop writing now and let the pictures do the talking....Read all the details here!!!

STYLE ME PRETTY FEATURE: LBB


Remember this post? Well I am thrilled to announce that Ron and Zena's wedding is featured today on Style Me Pretty's LBB today. I don't normally like to play favorites, but it is safe to say that Zena's bridal bouquet was my FAVORITE bouquet of 2010. I miss these two special people everyday, so it makes me smile to relieve the beauty of their wedding through their stunning wedding images. What made this day even more fun was sharing it with the following people:

Pièce de résistance

Regina | Nikolai from Kinetic Science on Vimeo.


I can't mention the wedding below without including the pièce de résistance...the delightful film created by Justin Stanley of Kinetic Science. I can't sing his praise enough. The film completely embodies the event...dare I say it is perfection?! What do you think?

Looking forward to working with him many times this year.

STYLE ME PRETTY FEATURE



What can I say? Other than I am absolutely thrilled for Bespoke Affairs to be featured on Style Me Pretty today. Regina and Nik's September wedding was a huge highlight of 2010 for me. Absolutely adorable couple infused with some of NYC's brightest talents. It was such a treat to watch this wedding come to life at The Othmer Library and Bubby's Pie Co. I say this to my couples all the time, but, it is so important to match the correct and best vendors to each and every event. This wedding is the perfect example of just that!

The SUPERSTAR vendors:

Photography: Weddings by Two

Floral & Event Design (and so much more!): Poppies and Posies

Cinematography: Justin Stanley of Kinetic Science

Vintage Car Rental and Styling: Merci New York

Makeup Artists: Temptu

Paper Products: Papermade Designs
