WE'VE MOVED

Things change, blogs move and this one has found a new home that is faster, prettier, cozier and just a hell of a lot better...so forgive us for the mess, change you RSS feeds and come over to Blog & Chain's new home!

this site will no longer be updated...so hang out at the new spot!

Our Inspiration

Images from Amy Neunsinger, Beloved Weddings, Leigh Miller, Jose Villa & Martha Stewart Weddings

Some of you have probably already been delighted by these pics, but in case you missed the buzz...Jill Thomas created some beautiful pics of what seems to be a very cool and authentic wedding. Their engagement portraits are great too!

yeah, you knew this was coming...

Friday, on a whim, I spruced up the blog and subsequently changed the header. The former tagline read "Musings from an indecisive bride"...because I knew this adventure would include some back and forth about numerous details. And just when I thought I had it all figured out, I dropped the line...but guess what? Yeah, I've changed my mind again.

Introducing our new color scheme...emerald. We are both delighted (yes, my boo has an opinon on such things.) That's it.

A little piece of frilly awesome

I can't even begin to explain how much of a frilly dress girl I AM NOT but this picture & dress are stirring all sorts of emotions in me...it's so beautiful I may throw out all of my pants and strictly convert to full on frilly black tie clothing from here to eternity. 

This number is yet another gorgeous and understated decadent dress from Monique Lhuillier. I found it over at The Bride's Guide which has so graciously bestowed peeks into all the latest designs from all the best designers throughout the past month (read: You must check it out).

Don't Doubt It Till You Rock It

This is a super short post...because time is limited at the moment; but I will be following up shortly with a million more reasons for you to believe the following statement: Carnations can be gorgeous. They have an unnecessary bad rap and I'm going to set the record straight all over this blog...so prepare yourself. Until then, enjoy this delightful picture. And while you're at it, run run run to the flower shop and pick up some handfuls of these underrated beauties!
