Chunky heels to avoid that sinking feeling [updated!]
I’ve heard women older than me say it, and now it’s my turn: you KNOW you’re getting older when trends you remember from your early 20s start looping back around again.
Witness: chunky heels. You guys, as proof of this, I present to you this photo of me on my 21st birthday, rocking some amazing white plastic chunky heels…
Rachel & Bo’s rockin’ red and black wedding
There were a few very sweet moments in this wedding: mom walking her daughter down the aisle, friends singing at the ceremony, and a rockin’ band playing for their friends at the reception. I also can’t forget to mention the gorgeous red and black details like the bride’s shoes (matching her hair!), black crinoline, and flower clutch. It all ends up being a fabulous music-filled day.
Silpi & Shawn’s handmade Indian-fusion cabaret wedding
This Canadian couple brought together the best of Western and Indian cultures for this fusion wedding. Add that to the mad crafting skills, fabulous yellow saris, talent-filled cabaret performances, and really fun guest book idea, and you’ve got a fabulous party for all involved. Plus, you’ll definitely want to check out the groom’s boy band performance!
Give a nod to your idols by wearing a favorite movie accessory
Anatalie and Mario had a theatrical wedding full of movie references, but my favorite part was Anatalie’s addition of ruby slippers to honor her idol, Judy Garland.
Kick-ass shoes, gorgeous gowns, and fabulous fashion
Reader submissions this week also included a rainbow-clad wedding party, even more rad shoes, and quite the spread of luscious fashion.
Heather & Tim’s tiny fall guerrilla wedding in the park
Follow those ruby slippers! Loving the simplicity of this ceremony in the park with a brother from each side of this partnership co-officiating before heading back to the couple’s apartment to celebrate. The cozy party features lots of beaming faces of all ages — even a quiet moment with their cats.
