Milkfed Press

Even before Victoria at Milkfed Press made the most lovely birth announcement for The Wedding Party's latest addition, baby Dylan, we have been HUGE fans of this local letterpress artist.

Simple wedding gown....Should I wear a veil?

Some of Nicole Miller's wedding gowns are so simple and sexy, I am often asked by brides, "What style of veil should I wear with this?" In particular, I hear this from women who are getting married on the beach or in a family member's backyard, or any venue in which the formality of a full-length veil may seem a bit out of sync with the more casual vibe of the ceremony. We love forgoing the veil altogether, in favor of the romantic Billie Holiday-style flower-behind-the-ear look. And, check out this super chic "birdcage veil" alternatives by Leah C. Millinery!


Couture Knits

We recently had the privilege of meeting local artist and couture knitwear designer Loretta Warner:
The yarns are hand-spun, and hand-dyed; the shawls are hand loomed-- This is an incredibly precious accessory for brides and mothers who appreciate the detail work, and want to introduce a unique element to the their ensembles!
