Beautiful Bouquets


Are you looking to carry something fabulous on your wedding day? Of course you are!  Take a look at these fabulous bouquets featured on Style Me Pretty for inspiration!  




For a country chic wedding this bouquet wrapped in burlap and wooden buttons are perfect!

For those lucky brides getting married in May and June and can have peonies, we always recommend them...and lot of them!
If you want to feel like you picked some wildflowers from a garden this bouquet has the whimsical/easy feel you are looking for.

White & green are your classic, never go out of style, wedding colors. Perfect for any wedding and any bride.
Looking to add something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue into your bouquet? You can use lace from your Grandmother ( maybe she has some left from her bouquet or wedding dress), any shade of of blue you like, your flowers of course are new, & add a broach to the stems that you've borrowed from your future mother-in-law! VoilĂ ! 4 sentiments all rolled into one!
Did you love Princess Diana's cascading bouquet? Then you'll love this modern take with just phalaenopsis orchids!




And one of our own bride's bouquet, featuring disco roses and peacock feathers created by Rebekah at Bergner & Johnson.

Behold BHLDN

In a little over a month from now BHLDN, Anthropologie's bridal collection is coming to Houston and setting up shop in Highland Village! We can't wait until the store opens on August 18th. Take a look why....
A fantastic way to personalize your drinks for the evening!
Everyone always purchases their cake & knife server, but these forks pave the way for a new tradition!
At $1,200 this Panes of Lace gown is stunning and affordable!!!
The back of the dress, the detailing is exquisite.
This kerchief is a wonderful way to ask your MOH and they have bridesmaids one too!


The Duchess

Over here we were in awe of how Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge looked flawless every single time she stepped out  for a public engagement on her 1st tour of Canada and the USA. True to Belle of the Ball form, all of us chose our favorite outfits that she wore and hoping we can purchase them! Not to mention, for any Bride to Be out there, if you are looking for a classic/elegant style for your rehearsal dinner or shower dresses, look no further than the Duchess!

Marissa's favorite style. She wore this one of her first days on the tour and it was stunning. We have already seen copies of this dress at Banana Republic and French Connection.

Natalie's favorite and don't be surprised if she comes to one of your weddings wearing a fascinator!
Valerie's favorite style. This dress is perfect for any formal occasion and blue makes it so much more fun than an LBD.
Christine's favorite is this DVF dress that was under $500! You've got to love it when Royalty wears clothes that are within reach of us commoners! 
Chelsea's favorite and we all agreed it was stunning. French Connection has a strapless dress like this right now.
Emily's favorite, which Kate wore twice! She just added the jacket to make the outfit look so Jackie O! 
Alia's favorite dress that Kate wore while visiting Prince Edward island. The vintage style dress she wore is a perfect example that going outside your comfort zone with fashion is a good thing!

Fly me to the Beach!

With summer very much upon us here in Houston, we were thinking how lovely it would be to have a destination beach wedding. Take a look at what perfect summer beach wedding means to us!


J.Crew has the perfect Amelia wedding dress to get to set the tone for the event!


Be like Duchess Catherine and wear a Reiss dress as a guest!
Since the ceremony is on the beach, add these great Valentino lace print jelly sandals from Saks with the Reiss dress!


For the reception, this wedding we found from photographer Tim Halberg has the perfect beach cool feeling we are going for!


this chandelier is amazing!

An Ojai Wedding


We want to share this gorgeous Ojai wedding featured on Style Me Pretty.  The vibrant purples paired with pinks and corals at the reception look stunning on the lush green landscape of Ojai, California.  We love the unique details the couple included, everything from the china to the barn venue!
