Happy Friday!

One of my besties recently got engaged to her long time boyfriend and I couldn't be more thrilled for her! With the wedding date set for May 2011, the wedding planning is kicking into high gear and this weekend I'm so excited to be joining her for a little wedding dress shopping!

Oh My! That Dress!

When the beautiful Meaghan Ferrall Kessman shared photos of her wedding with me, I was blown away by the gorgeousness of her in that dress, I just had to share on here....

The dress was actually designed by the winner of Project Runway season four, Christian Siriano! How cool is that!?

"Christian and I met right after he won Project Runway and he asked if I wanted him to do my dress," said Meaghan. "Of course I said yes! He is wonderful."

I'm a girl who loves appropriately done ruffles in luxurious fabric, so for me this is definitely a dream dress...absolutely stunning!

P.S. There is actually a picture of the dress in Christian's new book.

A Wedding in Ahualulco, Mexico

Jose Villa did an absolutely beautiful job of capturing this wedding which took place in Ahualulco, Mexico. I especially love the above photograph of the bride going up the aged steps in her trailing ruffled dress. Simply gorgeous...
