Trend We Love / Brides in Cardigans / North Carolina Wedding Planner

   Oh Fall, how we love you. Pumpkins, rich colors, leaves, hot cider, bonfires, s'mores, warm blankets...it's all pretty wonderful. Autumnal weddings are some of the best, but what's a bride to do when there's a chill in the air and her strapless dress leaves her a bit shivery? Add a cardigan of course!

Trend We Love / Flower Crowns / North Carolina Wedding Planner

   Have you noticed the growing popularity of flowers crowns? Maybe it's my inner flower child, but I adore them. They're more unique than a traditional veil, but still just as special.  These crowns add a bit of whimsy and magic to any bride's hair. They can be big and make a grand statement or small and dainty and look amazing on loose up-dos, with braids, or atop flowing waves. Here are a few of my favorites.

Trend we love / Bicycles! / North Carolina Wedding Planner

   Being a fairly new bike owner, I have a growing love for bicycles. They're pretty, and useful, and just so adorable. If you're a bike enthusiast as well, why not incorporate them into your special day?

   Hop on your bike for a ride with your groom...and why not have all your guest join you?
