photo backdrops

I'm still loving the backgrounds of these super fun wedding photos! Created by Ashley of Smilebooth, via Once Wed.

sangria

I do love a nice glass of sangria in the summertime. I was intrigued that Martha had a 'Sangria bar' at her latest shindig, and thought it sounded like something worth trying. 

Food & Wine has a selection of yummy-sounding sangria recipes, as well as other drinks that can be served via pitcher right here.

amy atlas...she's done it again

As always, I'm blown away by Amy Atlas' creations. Loving this green birthday tableau. 

aussie awesomeness

Nathalie of Imprintables has turned me on to yet another Aussie baking company- check out these amazing cakes, from Polka Dot. 

homemade masterpiece

I love the off-beat-ness of this homemade wedding cake. The fact that it is so not perfect, makes it totally perfect to me. (And the other 'homespun' decorations are pretty rad as well).
