Inspiration Board: Oplent Elegance

I feel like I've been MIA, and I'm sorry for that! I just hadn't been feeling super inspired lately. But this morning I was finally feeling inspired again and put together this board. This wedding feels like eighteenth century romance. With its glistening golds, rich reds and moody black, its something straight out of a Gothic romance novel but all the while super sophisticated.

Inspiration Board: J'aime ce Mariage

Rough translation: I love this wedding! Get carried away on a cloud of pastels, balloons, fashion, sweets and adorably French touches like white Louboutins, ruffles, ruffles, ruffles, pastel macarons, white cafe china, a patisserie style dessert display complete with chalkboard menu (in French, merci boucoup!).

Feeling low..

Feeling a little down. I can't tell you how many times in the last few weeks I have emailed photographers about featuring a wedding that they just posted and that caught my eye only to be told it is going to be featured on Style Me Pretty, Once Wed, or Snippet & Ink among others. On one hand, it's nice to know I have good taste and those sites like the same things I do. On the other, it's hard to feel like I'm hitting a wall in my blogging and can't go much farther with what I have. I would love more than anything to be able to re-design and turn Marry You Me into a real wedding site with a snappy design ascetic and same great content. That is my goal - to be a legit wedding blog - this is my passion and I pour so much of myself into this blog. But accomplishing my goal requires $, not a ton, but enough - and that's something that is in short supply in my life right now (I know I'm not alone in this though!). Sorry to be a downer, I'm just wondering what to do and felt like putting what I want out there into the universe so that things might start clicking for me.
