Another Vintage Country Wedding

In our effort to bring you more of our Vintage Country Wedding Theme, I present you this beautiful real wedding of Kara and Seth. The event took place in a farm near of Los Olivos, California and was photographed by the great Ken Kienow.

The venue for this event is just amazing, and every little element was just perfect, from the decorations and flowers to the cowboy boots and favors. I adore the country band and the bouquet, but my favorite details are the hay on the floor and the hanging pictures around the barn. What do you think?

Ines Di Santo Fall 2010

Ines is definitely in my top three list of favorite Bridal Designers. Usually, I have dresses that I like very much, but I would never wear them if I was a Bride. It's the complete opposite with Ines Di Santo's  collection. I see her dresses and I always feel like I would wear every one of them for my own wedding. They are so me!

This happens to me with every new collection of hers since before I was involved in the wedding industry... since I was planning my own wedding.

Take a look of Ines Di Santo's new collection for Fall 2010, its full of chic, elegant and sexy dresses.

There are not local Bridal Boutiques that carry Ines Di Santo. So if you love them and want one for your wedding visit their website for store locations or order online.

Ghost Chairs

I have been following this trend, in event decoration for a while, and I love it! The fabulous ghost chair is one the easiest ways to give your traditional wedding decoration a little twist of contemporary style. If you want to give your wedding or quinceañera a touch of couture without looking too modern, just use ghost chairs and leave the rest of the your decoration as traditional as can be. I guarantee you your reception will look elegant, and still keep unique.

If you are a modern bride or quince, looking for a clean contemporary look for the big day, the ghost chair is an excellent option for your decoration as well.

As long as I know, in the El Paso - Las Cruces area, Elite Events carry these Ghost Chairs. Please leave me a comment if you know any other local place that may carry them.

Vintage Country

I adore the new Vintage Country theme for weddings! It's perfect for our area, especially because we have the perfect venues and locations all around. You only need a ranch, some horses, vintage details, and you are good to go!
