Daily Wedding News: Attacked by Giant T-Rex

Attacked by Giant T-Rex


Forget walking down the aisle, this bride is running for her life.
At least that’s how photographer Quinn Miller wanted to make it seem as he oh-so-perfectly Photoshopped a giant T-Rex chasing the entire wedding party out of their ceremony at The Myrtles Plantation in St. Francisville, La., on May 26.
Miller has seen other photographers attempt to pull off the “Jurassic Park”-themed wedding photo, but knew he could do much better.

As devastating as the tornado's impact was to their Moore, Okla., home last week, Mady Gosh and fiancE Jason Velasquez have managed to find hope in the improbable sequence of events that saved their wedding-day essentials. (Courtesy Robby and Savannah Doland.)

Gosh had a full plate in the months leading up to the tornado that would sweep through their neighborhood. The recently engaged woman had just begun the process of moving into her fiancE's home on Little River Circle, and she was making last-minute plans for her June 12 California wedding.

"My entire focus for the past six months was wedding planning: my bridal shower, bachelorette party, all of it," Gosh, 29, said. "And I feel like our lives just kind of halted."

- Mint looks gorgeous in soft floaty fabrics so go for minty chiffons if you fancy mint bridesmaids.

- White balloons look amazing with this look; larger ones with tassels are great for detail or use lots of small ones grouped to create impact.

- Gold lame is fabulous for creating details from tying your napkins and decorating favours to creating an amazing backdrop for your ceremony space not to mention photos!

Classic & Romantic Navy Wedding With Lace Wedding Dress

Classic & Romantic Navy Wedding Filled With Lace, Moss & Stripes

Megan and Todd’s wedding at The Langham Huntington Hotel in Pasadena was the perfect mix of rustic chic decor with classic, ballroom elegance.

I’ve fallen head over heels for the navy and neutral colour palette, pretty moss details, white roses, blush pink dahlias and chic stripes. And I’m pretty much obsessed with Megan’s timeless bridal style…

She teamed a layered lace wedding dress with with the perfect amount of sparkle – glamorous earrings, waist cinching sash and delicate hair pin peeking out from underneath her cathedral length, lace trimmed veil.

Orange Turtle Photography captured all the romance and beauty of Megan and Todd’s special day perfectly.

From The Bride…

The beautiful Bridal 

We want to create a feeling of timeless elegance. We liked the idea of having neutral colors and lots of natural elements to allow for our venue to speak for itself.

I wore a strapless lace gown with a cathedral length lace trimmed veil. My bridesmaids wore grey chiffon floor length dresses with stain sashes that had fabric flowers attached to them.

 The Flowers

Flowers for the The beautiful Bridal

I really wanted the flowers to be very natural and timeless. We used a lot of wooden boxes and baskets (the flower girl basket was covered in moss) and the chuppah was made of wood covered in moss and dahlias. The flowers were all in the white family and consisted of mostly garden roses, dahlias and queen anne’s lace.


 The Ceremony

We had an interfaith service that included some Christian traditions as well as Jewish ones.

 Décor & Details

Wedding Decos

Wedding Decos - Flower

Our décor was minimal in order to highlight the beautiful historic hotel we were surrounded by. We did want to add a few quirks to elevate the day and bring a little something special to the day.

Our escort card table was a replica of the Hollywood sign and spelled out MR & MRS in the background. We also included different pictures of our bulldog on our table numbers to add a little whimsy to the day.


The Refreshments

We love comfort food and found it important to include late night snacks that were made available during the late night dancing. The food included lobster corn dogs, sliders, tomato shooters with grilled cheese sticks, homemade marshmallows and donut holes (in honor of our bulldog Dunkin named after our favorite donut shop).

 The Wedding Music

Our recessional was a guitar and violin rendition of “I’ll Be There For You” by The Rembrandts in honor of my obsession with the show Friends. Our first dance was to an acoustic version of “Chasing Cars” by Snow Patrol.


 Orange Turtle Photography

We spent a long time looking for the perfect photographers. We met a bunch of people that we didn’t feel were right for us and were then recommended to meet Orange Turtle Photography by our wedding planner and it was a perfect match.

We wanted to find photographers that would be able to have a specific point of view and tell a story through photo. We knew that the pictures would last much longer than the day would and wanted to make sure they were able to re-create that special feeling for years and years to come!

Advice For Other Couples

I am a natural planner. I had binders, excel spreadsheets and lots of Pinterest pins. After planning my sister’s wedding I knew there was a ton of options and the biggest piece of advice I could give is to know that you cannot make a wrong decision.

The day is about the words spoken between husband and wife, the rest of it is beautiful icing on the cake. There are lots of flavors to choose from and they are ALL delicious!

Congratulations Megan and Todd!

Thanks to Orange Turtle Photography for sharing these beautiful photos.

Don’t you just adore their ceremony decor? Moss and stripes are such a pretty combination!

And isn’t Megan one of the classiest brides you’ve ever seen?!

Happy happy weekend – aren’t the long ones the best?!


TRADITIONAL ENGLISH COUNTRYSIDE WEDDING INSPIRATION BOARD


It feels like we only arrived yesterday but our time in Miami is coming to an end soon. I’m going to miss these beautiful turquoise waters so much but having just seen The Great Gatsby I’m super excited about going to New York. Old sport.

Of course, England is never far from my mind and oh how I love this romantic, traditional English church wedding inspiration board from the lovely Rose of  Rose and Ruby Paper Co.

 English Countryside Wedding Inspiration
Sometimes only a traditional English countryside wedding will do and I love the romance of a pretty church, old fashioned confetti and lots of pretty little flower girls.

 Rose’s Styling Tips
Spring is a great time to make the most of beautiful swathes of blossom which makes a stunning backdrop for your wedding.

Lots of lace is a must – lace table runners over old wooden tables look gorgeous.

Try mixing with vintage vases and old fashioned silver gallery trays. These are also fab for styling your guest book area and making a pretty table plan.

Choose English country garden flowers: Lilly of the Valley, Myrtle, Roses, Sweet Williams, and Hyacinths.

LEMONADE & SUNFLOWERS: A SWEET WEDDING FILM


 LEMONADE & SUNFLOWERS: A SWEET WEDDING FILM BY SUGARFISH PRODUCTIONS


This sweet, tender wedding film by Sugarfish Productions is punctuated by the bride’s father’s moving speech and wise words of marital advice. (Listen up folks!)

There’s also a pre-nuptial trip to the pub to calm Lewis’ nerves, as well as his simple, beautiful ode to his new wife, Leah.

A fresh, Autumnal colour palette of yellows and oranges plus the delightful combination of lemonade and sunflowers.

Oh and there’s some seriously epic moves on the dance floor – including ‘the fish hook’ – which, according to their friends, Leah found particularly irresistible when she first met Lewis!



“Sunflowers & Lemonade” – Leah & Lewis – Fritton House Hotel Wedding Venue in Norfolk from Sugarfish Productions on Vimeo.

Here’s what Leah and Lewis had to say about Sugarfish Productions:

We could not be happier with our wedding film. Gary and Brendan captured every aspect of the day, the laughter and the tears, in a truly organic way. They did this without being imposing or forcing anything that didn’t come naturally to me and Lewis as a couple. We genuinely felt like they cared as much about our special day as everyone else who was there to share it with us. Both Gary and Brendan were able put everyone at ease so that even those who were not comfortable in front of a camera were able to shine and be remembered in our wedding film for years to come.

No matter how many times we have seen it, it still draws a laugh and a tear every time and I can’t wait to share these special memories with our children in years to come.

By the way, Sugarfish Productions also filmed a ‘Love Story’ film with Leah and Lewis and some of their closest friends before the big day that gives a glorious glimpse into how they met, how Lewis proposed and just how in love they are. Well worth checking out.

The Bachelorette Season 9 Premiere: Meet the Man Candy

After being dumped by Sean Lowe during the hometown dates, beautiful brunette Desiree Hartsock is back and looking for love. And a best friend to share life with her. And probably a little fame, too. (If this doesn't pan out, maybe she has a career as a rap artist?)

But hey, with 25 handsome and successful men flying in from all over for the chance to drink a lot of booze, spill some man tears, start some drama, all in the quest to win her hand, can we really blame her?

Tonight she'll meet the men of The Bachelorette Season 9 and narrow the playing field down to 19 contenders. Of course, if you don't want to wait, feel free to skip ahead and read The Bachelorette spoilers to learn the identities of Desiree's Final Four.

The rest of us will be here watching what is sure to be two parts train wreck and one part treat.
Desiree Hartsock Is Wearing a Red Wedding Dress
Red Flower Wedding Dress



Desiree Hartsock lived a humbling life, so the extravagance of the house she'll be staying in on the hillsides of Malibu, CA is quite the step up. And someone put m&ms on her nightstand. Plus 5. Where do I get somebody to do that?

Sadness. We get to relive the tearful end of her relationship with Sean Lowe. Minus 10.

To help ease the pain of that breakup, The Bachelorette producers got her a Bentley. A. Bentley. Powder blue. She says she feels like she's exactly where she's supposed to be.

After Desiree goes roller skating in a bikini top through Malibu, she sits down with Chris Harrison where she calls herself Cinderella no less than 3 times. She wants someone who can communicate how he feels. That means man tears, right?

She vows to kiss the guy if she feels like kissing the guy. GIRL POWER! Plus 8.

She's ready to weed out the men from the boys. So are we. Can we get to that now please?




(Sure we can. After Desiree says the words "this is a fairy tale" a zillion times.)

So, Chris Harrison introduces himself and the show right now at the 23 minute mark like we don't already know what's going on here. That will not ever cease to be not weird.

Hooray! We're meeting some of the men!
