MS Details Hearts Punk Rock Bride Dresses

We really love Punk Rock Bride's simple and unique dresses! Some are edgy, some are sweet, but they are all unique and allow brides to show their style on their big day.

Brides should really be themselves on their wedding day, so when selecting the perfect dress, make sure it fits your own style.

The Sugar Cube - Designer Confection & Candy Bars

Today I had the pleasure of meeting with Kim and Alyssa Theodore, the owners of The Sugar Cube, a fine chocolate and sweets boutique in Old Town, Alexandria. Kim and Alyssa were nice enough to talk about all their services and the endless possibilities for brides looking for that "wow" kind of candy bar. The Sugar Cube even offers a variety of tasty favor option that won't break the bank. I was lucky enough to leave with some wonderful samples and I'm sure I'll be visiting them regularly to pick up some treats.

I have attached some eye candy to show you how delicious their store is. They have everything to satisfy a sweet tooth.

MS. Details Adores Kate Triano Photography

I recently saw some absolutely gorgeous images that Kate Triano had taken of her and her husband while they were in California. The pictures are absolutely stunning and have furthermore encouraged me to do a similar shoot with my hubby, of course with Kate on the other side of the lens. Kate selected the ever talented Trista Lerit to photograph Joe and her, and what an amazing job she did. Also I have to mention that the hairpeice by Dorene's Veils that Kate had made is to die for.

I always love see who great photographers choose to take photos of them.

In addition to posting some of my favorite pic of Kate and Joe, I also wanted to highlight some of my favorite images from Kate herself. Any bride would be lucky to have her capture their special day.

Happy Valentine’s Day

I've spent some time today browsing all the wonderful blogs that are listing beautiful Valentines Day items and those inspired by love and I wanted to post some of my favorites.

The pottery hearts made by Rea Dun and found thru Poppytalk Handmade are perfect to let you count the ways. And how great would it be to get a cute accordion book from Good Stock your sweetie with their favorite photo's of you together. The ring isn't specifically for Valentine’s Day, but it's just so perfect.

Today we were treated to a wonderful thank you tea at Barbra's studio and had the pleasure or chatting with Ky, Shaune, Pia, and of course Barbra.
