I also looked at actual wedding pictures from the 50s and 60s. I particularly love Priscilla Presley's wedding day look!"

Rayana and Guilherme's Brazilian wedding was full of glorious details! "We wanted to have a big party with everything and everyone that makes us happy", began the bride. "Weddings in Brazil are usually too formal and full of traditions that don't have much to do with us, so we decided to do only the things that made sense. We had a religious ceremony because it was important for my family, but we also wanted the party to be fun and full of unusual details. Also, since we work with books, we wanted to incorporate them in the wedding décor."

Maite has a thing for skeletons and skulls, and Raisa loves festivals and the circus so we wanted to mesh the two together."

Amy and Ryan wanted a sweet, nostalgic and happy wedding. They were married at Star Hill Ranch in Austin, in March.

"We both love mid-century ascetics, but didn't want it to be too kitschy or overdone. One guest described it as 'if Wes Anderson remade Steel Magnolias' which is a fantastic compliment if not just a really, really good idea."

Running your own business is probably one of the best things ever, but the fact that you don't get a Christmas party along with the rest of society is very sad indeed! So my fellow self-employed babes and I are planning on throwing our own cocktail, cava and Mexican food shindig this weekend. It's going to be epic and of course there's only one thing on my mind... finding a brand new outfit!
