When I got these photos from Renaissance Studios, there was no way I could not share them!  They are way too fun.  The couple, Rebecca and Benoit, had a very mod-ish wedding, held at Elora Centre for the Arts in Ontario. The day was highly stylized, with a Tiffany blue and crimson color story weaving throughout.  Without further ado…

(I looove this photo of the bride.. she looks like a ballerina : )

I’m totally digging the simple styling of this couple’s e-pics.  Sandra and Roger hail from Ontario Canada, where Renaissance Studios Photography photographed their Make Love, Not War engagement session.  So perfect!
A special thanks to Renaissance Studios for sharing this with us.  Have a happy weekend!♥

As I peer out the window at the approaching storm, I am dreaming of springtime. I can’t wait for sunny days and warm nights. This daffodil diy from our good friend Chelsea Fuss gets me in the mood for the upcoming season. It’s also a fantastic idea for a bridal bouquet.

My bridal shower was so sweet and intimate. My best girlfriends and sister gathered together and we had a lovely lunch amidst orange tulips and a yummy lovebirds-topped banana cake.

Now if I was going to have a coed shower, it would be just like this camping-inspired shindig, put together by one of my faves in the business, Jesi Haack! Now mind you, this is a baby shower but the idea could be adjusted!
