We are always thrilled when we get to be a part of Jen Huang’s photography workshops.  We have such fun working with her and watching her teach! Here is a little taste of our latest collaboration. You can see the rest today on 100 Layer Cake. The amazing hair is from none other than Stacy […]

first dance: choosing “our song”

I have some issues with The First Dance.  I imagine it’s a bit intimidating to dance in front of everybody, I have only enough coordination to get me safely down the aisle.  But then again if you want your wedding guests to dance you might have to set the example.  Then there’s the pressure to […]

We are so excited about the new ‘Wild Medicine’ exhibition going on at the NYBG. The show opens on the 18th of this month and runs through September.

paper dress

The other day Juliet was talking about wearing a dress made from paper… have you every heard of such a thing?  Apparently in the late 60’s paper dresses were a huge fad.  Designed as a promotional product for paper companies like Scott, paper dresses were relatively cheaply priced often came with a coupon for household […]

Flower Thief

A flower thief is running wild in Northwest Washington and he can’t be stopped! Flowers from lilacs to peonies are being violated and often yanked straight from their roots. You have to check out this story posted in the NY Times recently.

Mother’s Day is fast approaching and I think I know what I’m sending my mother this year. Every time we visit Juliet’s mother I look forward to (and I know this is a bit silly) to having some time to quietly sit and read all of the magazines that I don’t subscribe to/had never heard […]

Blue Hill ‘On The Road’

OTR_eblast_5.2

We are longtime fans of Blue Hill, in all of its forms.  Working at Stone Barns often has solidified it as one of our favorite places ever to spend a day (work or otherwise).  Now Blue Hill has launched off-site catering and we couldn’t be more thrilled!  The gorgeous farm to table food can finally […]

A Blooming Spring

 Getting back in the swing of things the past few weeks has been so much fun. Sometimes it’s a bit hard to transition from a quieter winter with more client meetings and less events to a booming, busy wedding season. Somehow this year has been more fun than ever and I think we can attribute […]

Growing a home

home

  I’m always envious of my friends who have a huge collection of family decor pieces in their homes. Somehow their homes always feel a bit cozier and more like a place to well call home. Juliet’s family has an incredible collection of Persian rugs and antique items that she now displays in her apartment […]

Queen of Versailles

Queen of Versailles, Jackie Siegel

If you haven’t seen Queen of Versailles, set your DVR. The bizarre documentary has been streaming on Netflix for a few months, but Bravo will be airing the movie tonight for the first time on television.  Detailing the Siegel family, David Seigel’s timeshare company Westgate Resorts, and the 90,000 square foot home they are building […]
