Things We Are Loving Now!

Summer is HERE and besides LOVING this sunny weather, we have found some of our new favorite things and ideas!

.

Cathy Waterman is a Californian jewelry designer who uses recycled metals and fair trade stones to create her beautiful pieces. Her line of engagement rings and wedding bands, called Love of My Life, is a whimsical take on the standard wedding ring. We love these creative, beautiful rings!.

Nowadays, it has become a very common tradition to give the bride and groom money on their wedding day. Well, why not put a little twist on this tradition by giving them the currency of their honeymoon wedding destination? Our couple Ellen and Jon were off to Italy for their honeymoon and they received Euros from one witty guest. What a cute idea!

We are absolutely loving Kate Spade‘s Wedding Belles collection. From cute bridesmaids gifts, to a post-nuptials perfect passport, Kate Spade has thought of everything!

We always love Carasco Photography but lately we have been drooling over their recent engagement shoots. The graphics they have been using add such a fun, editorial feel to the photos that we completely dig. If you are interested in scheduling an engagement shoot or speaking with Carasco about photographing your event or wedding please click here!

We are DYING over this Christian Dior dress!!!! What a gorgeous way to add “something blue” AND show off your shoes! The lining of  a wedding dress is a great place to add a touch of color, without getting too untraditional.

We recently stumbled upon the Man Registry and are loving this great service! It offers all kinds of manly gifts that fiances can add to their own, separate registry, since most grooms are not interested in formal china! Check out the Man Registry for all things groom!

The equestrians of MDE are also lusting after the new Gucci Equestrian Collection. The fantastically detailed, to die for collection, for both horse and rider, is exquisite. Designed for the Hereditary Princess of Monaco, and avid equestrian, Charlotte Casiraghi, the collection includes horse blankets, riding jackets and even helmets! We know what’s on Michelle’s Christmas list!!!
