Etsy {Weds}day: Summer Black & White
When it comes to formal events, black and white is a classic and sophisticated option. The trouble with black and white is that it can be associated with stuffiness and very serious affairs. For a lighter (but no less beautiful) approach, a summer black and white wedding featuring soft shapes, organic materials and a variety of patterns is perfectly appropriate. Today’s Etsy {Weds}day picks are just what I have in mind.

Etsy {Weds}day No. 5: A Modern Bride
My personal style is very simple. I like things to be clean with good lines and solid construction. Here are a few perfectly simple items fit for the modern bride that can’t be held down by the constraints of big bows and ridiculous trains. Love, love, love.

Etsy {Weds}day No. 4: Au Natural
Today’s gorgeous picks are inspired by nature and the girls that need it to get through the day. I love the randomness of things that grow, natural light in the morning and bare feet in the grass. Whenever I get married, its likely to take place in my parent’s backyard complete with a vegetable garden, a tool shed and an overloaded mulberry tree. On a sunny day, that place cannot be beat.
I heart all of these items and they would all be welcome in my backyard wedding…show some love. xoxo.

StudioWisco Love!
Rachel of StudioWisco was kind enough to feature my Bicycle Built for Two card on her fantastic design blog. I’m a big fan of her site, so this was a pleasant surprise on this fine Friday!
Etsy {Weds}day No. 3: Blushing Brides
Girly girls, this one’s for you!
This week’s wedding picks have a touch of pale pink for the flirty, feminine bride. They are all so soft and romantic but still in a very modern style. I love them muchly.

Etsy {Weds}day No. 2: Peacock Inspired
For my second installation of Etsy {Weds}day, I thought I would take some inspiration from the animal kingdom: the peacock. The only thing flashier than a peacock is a wedding, thus making this a no-brainer.
I love, love, love all of these items! The tones are so rich; the shapes are so dramatic; the sentiment is nothing more than “look at me.” Perfection.
