Renewal Inspirations – Our Custom Re-designed Wedding Bands
So there are some parts of the planning process that just make me stop and say wow! Having our wedding bands redesigned by Marc of Marcco Jewelers did just that. Marc custom designed my first wedding band to fit perfectly with the engagement ring Adam chose for me. That band is now being melted down […]
An Artful Life – My love, our life, the story…

Renewal Inspirations – Hand Painted Book Invitations
Well, the time is finally here. After over a year of planning two celebrations to for our 10th anniversary renewal, the PA party invitations are finally on their way to guests. Being a lover of all things paper, I took every opportunity possible to infuse hand painted, handmade paper goodness into this event. From the […]
Renewal Inspirations – A Trial Run with Dreamcatcher Photography
Several weeks ago I thought it might be a good idea to have a site visit with our Renewal in PA photographer Kara Walsh of Dreamcatcher Photography. The Cottage, the location of our PA renewal celebration is a unique place and has so much to consider, so a pre-party visit seemed smart. Kara was all […]
Renewal Inspirations: A Momental Girl meets Sylvia Weinstock
So, I have met Ms. Weinstock several times in the past and after a lot of prioritizing and planning knew I must have a Sylvia Weinstock cake for our renewal party in PA! I spent the early part of this week in New York City and finally had my chance to sit in Ms. Weinstock’s […]
Renewal Inspirations: Painting a picture of love in Zion.
This is where it all began. My love for the west, redrock landscapes and the clear, crisp air of the desert landscape-it began with a painting. Years ago, when the hubby and I took our first trip out west, I wasn’t even sure I wanted to go honestly. He was thrilled at the prospect of […]
Renewal in Zion – Our anthem
Love this shot of Zion at night by Greg Gibson Yes, that is right, we have an anthem that encapsulates pretty much everything we vision for our #renewalinzion. If you remember back to this post, where I suggested Destination Events have a mission statement, well, having a theme song is along the same lines. Destination […]
Renewal in Zion – Flowers, flowers and more flowers!
photo courtesy of the talented Gideon Photography Even though our renewal in Zion will be intimate the hubby and I decided to leave no detail overlooked or under-worked. We both have a pretty lush sensibility when it comes to visual inspiration so the flower design would certainly be no exception. This past Wednesday while in […]

A Peek into the Studio – Blooms, Swirls and Vintage Lace
The studio is buzzing and we are working our tails off here! Jess has been helping me lately with the rush of samples recently and we love her gorgeous landscapes and venue illustrations!

Renewal Inspirations – Green Apple Photography
Yay! We have found our photographer! After a roller coaster ride of a search over the last 5 months the hubby and I have finally found our perfect photographer! Choosing the photographer for our first wedding was a bit different primarily since this was before the wonderful word blog was part of our vocabularies – […]
Renewal Inspirations – A Zion palette
With all the Holiday madness and wrapping up last minute 2009 orders the renewal planning took a back seat. I am sure most brides can relate to this as January 1st comes and goes you inevitably have the “oh, you know what” moment when the realization of planning to-do lists grows in your mind! Since […]
