Inspiration: Triteia in Puerto Rico

This intimate Puerto Rican destination wedding, shot by by Elisa Bricker (and featuring our Triteia) is all class and romance. This couple jet set to their private ceremony overlooking the sea. They said their vows in the shadow of a 16th-century citadel, the historic Castillo San Felipe del Morro in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

Real Weddings: Meet Natalie

Natalie and Garrett's Palm Springs wedding was DIY Boho beauty at its finest. Natalie handmade all of the macramé decor. The guest's seating cards were made from photos of the couple's favorite adventures together. Natalie's mom even baked all of the cookies for the welcome bags! The Ace hotel in Palm Springs was the perfect venue with its ultra-cool, desert vibe. The bride chose our Plié Bodice + Kensington Skirt, which was just right for this laid back, free-spirited celebration.

Check out Natalie and Garett's equally charming vintage VW bus engagement session here.

Real Weddings: Meet Leslie

Leslie and Josh were married just outside of Boston at Endicott Estate. The twenty-five room historic mansion provided a perfectly charming setting for the day's festivities. I-dos were exchanged among the 18 acres of rolling lawns, under century old elms, as the sun set. Leslie is wearing a customized gown, created from our Azurite Bodice and Mulberry Skirt; an enchanted blend of modern style and timeless romance. That tiny bow tie is also one of our custom creations. We made it for that sweet little pup, to match Leslie's skirt (of course).
