let them eat cake!

i love the individual desert trend for weddings right now. put your own spin on a desert and offer doughnuts or mini eclairs or tartlettes or even mini cinnamon buns for your guests instead of the traditional cake! chic yes, but what's even better, it can be much cheaper!! but you can't just have a pile of doughnuts laying around, you need some of these china wedding cake stands to display your sweet treats. you can find these a many more at Let Them Eat Cake.

perfect fall heels

how much do i love what j crew is doing right now?! the colors and textures, and all the wonderfully classic yet a bit disheveled chic combinations they have created are fabulous! these heels are perfect for this fall season and perfect for a fall wedding! you can't go wrong with a mary jane or t-strap heel for your maids, gals!

breathtaking...

i know i put this up on the right side of my blog, but in case you haven't noticed it yet here it is again. i'm in love with this picture. for me, it is beautifully classic example of what every bride wants to look and feel like on her wedding day with her husband...breathtaking.
