Living in California, it's so easy to be inspired, especially on days like this shoot! The moody backdrop of the cliffs against the water was like a daydream.

I can't get enough of El Matador State Beach as a backdrop for this stunning beach bride. If you're searching for some bohemian elements to add to your wedding, this shoot incorporated some of my favorites.

The mid-century modern pieces, paired with gauzy fabrics like our gray table runner shown here, help bring this boho vision to life.

The gray of the fabric brings so much depth to the deep ocean blues and the brightness of the cliffs. I can't get enough!

What's your favorite part of the shoot?

It’s officially spring now and if you’re a spring, summer, or fall bride, linens are probably on your mind! 

There are a few trends that come back around each year for runners and these are our top favorites for this spring. With these choices, you can’t go wrong! 

1. Chiffon:

This has been huge for a while and doesn’t show any signs of slowing down! A chiffon table runner, whether on all the tables or just a head/sweetheart, is the perfect way to bring some added glamour to your wedding without overwhelming your theme! It’s such a versatile fabric that it works for many different styles and can be easily draped and styled to fit any table.

2. Velvet:

This one is a little less common, but I think it has the most style! Velvet is so luxurious and elegant. It works in every season, depending on the color you choose. For spring and summer brides, the mauve color fits so well – like in this bohemian inspired wedding from Green Wedding Shoes. The maroon, emerald, or navy colors fit well for colder seasons like fall and winter.

3. Gauze:

This romantic ocean wedding shoot with one of our gauze runners perfectly exemplifies the airy, graceful vibe this runner can bring to your wedding tablescape!

4. Sequins:

These are our most popular runners and they fit for any season of the year. If your cake table needs a little extra sparkle or if you want to bring in an accent color with our champagne color or silver color (more colors available here), these are perfect! This sweet couple used some of our sequin linens in their wedding and I can't get enough of their pictures! (It was held at the Lighthouse - featured on our blog here!)

5. Lace:

These gorgeous, romantic lace runners can bring a rustic vibe to your wedding and add another layer of elegance. I love this French country themed shoot using our runners!

You can also mix and match all of these to create a unique flair for your wedding! If you've used any of these, we'd love to see pictures! Tag us on Facebook or Instagram to make sure we see it.

Happy spring, everyone!

This is the season when weddings are everywhere and many brides-to-be start planning so I wanted to pop by and share what's inspiring me lately!

I love the combination of burgundy and ivory for a classic look, with pops of bright pink for spring! The contrast highlights the pink, so don't worry if your color palette for your wedding or event is monochrome - there are so many different shades that can be used. I love the cake stand and the inside of the invitation envelopes showing that so many small details can be used to highlight the color choices for your wedding.

I want to keep this short and sweet today, so we can all go enjoy the end of March and upcoming spring weather. Be sure you're following us on Facebook and Instagram for more tips, upcoming products and sales, and all the exciting things along the way!
