I am loving the eco-friendly gowns from The Cotton Bride! All of the dresses are hand-sewn and made of natural fabrics, including an array of cotton and linen, and designed to perfection with hints of beadwork, lace, and embroidery. The concept is simple but the beauty of these dresses is anything but! Happy Earth Day!

Brilliant Earth...Brilliant Rings

I love a non-traditional engagement or wedding band and when it happens to hold sentimental value and/or be created in a socially responsible manner...it's even better.

Brilliant Earth, founded in 2005 by Beth Gerstein and Eric Grossberg, has the most beautiful "responsibly sourced" jewelry. Like this Oval Yellow Sapphire on White Gold $2,500.

I can’t thank you enough for everything you did for and with me to pull my wedding together. And from long distance too! Everything was exactly as I hoped and dreamed it would be, and I’m happy to put my ego aside and admit there’s NO WAY I could have done it without you. I immediately upon meeting you realized I could let all of that stuff go, and it was safe in your hands. When I walked into the reception space and everything was exactly as I had pictured it, I thanked heaven for you lol. My whole family and crew loved you, my husband was very grateful for you, and the whole day was blissful with immense thanks to you. I wouldn’t have changed a thing. Thank you from the tips of my toes, Ali

"Melissa was the wedding planner for my daughter's wedding @ Terranea Resort in October 2013. We contracted her for " the day of services" which included creating a timeline for everyone involved, coordination of vendors ,& following up on a ginormous amount of other details required to have my daughter's little piece of a dream wedding flow seamlessly & non intrusively. Due to her experience & professionalism we were able to relax & thoroughly enjoy the beauty of my daughter's special day....I also greatly appreciated her always pleasant & bubbly attitude! I highly recommend Melissa as a wedding planner!" ~ Denise N.
