NYC is one of the best places in the world to go wedding dress shopping. Here are some of our favorite places to go!

Wedding and Anniversary keepsakes and treasures that I love.

I've got three weddings on the calendar this August and pulled together every dress I'm actually considering — floor-length maxis and gowns for black-tie affairs, a few polka dot moments since it's clearly having its trend season, and shorter midi/cocktail options for daytime or casual ceremonies. Shopping from Nordstrom, Anthropologie, Shopbop, Mumu, and a few surprise finds.

With spring/summer in mind all of these pj’s are perfect for a bride wanting an elevated + timeless look.

Fall is literally the most popular time of the year for weddings. So it would stand to reason that it's one of the most popular times of year to elope too! Most of the country has ideal weather in the fall (there's a reason Tennesseee Fall is my favorite season) and there's always so many fun things to do when you go somewhere fun in the fall, I mean what town or city doesn't have some sort of fall festival? Here's my list of the top places to elope in the fall based on their weather and potentially how busy it'll be around that time of year.

From fun ideas like a message in a bottle guest book, polaroid photos, cheesecake cake with fun cake topper, and DIY buckeye favors, below is everything we used to stay in our decor budget of under $2,500.

Destination guests land fried, then they hit 110-degree sidewalks and a 2 a.m. after-party. These are the things I tell couples to drop in the hotel-room bag so people actually show up on time and still look human in group photos. Not the couple’s day-of kit. That list is separate.

Look, I’ve been to my fair share of weddings—some in vineyards, some in Vegas chapels, one in a barn that smelled faintly of hay and regret. And every single time, the same question pops up: “What on earth do I wear?” This isn’t some stiff, rule-heavy manual. It’s a friendly, no-BS roundup of dresses that actually work—whether you’re dealing with a “cocktail” invite that means nothing, a destination wedding in July, or your cousin’s ultra-formal church ceremony. Plus, real photos, real price ranges, and a gentle reminder: please, for the love of all things holy, skip the white.

Spring is time for garden parties and that’s why I thought to share my picks for all the cool things that can make any party special. Birthday parties happen all year around. And a cocktail party doesn’t have a season, it can happen any time and they are fun. To make your party super special you only need one or two thing that will stand out. Pick from my list and have a great party! 🎉🍸🍹🍷

Wedding registries are honestly so stressful to build!
