I recently had an opportunity to participate in a Valentine’s Day styled shoot with a fabulous group of wedding professionals!  It was such a fun process and the team was a joy to work with.  Our models, Taryn and Ben, are getting ready to jump the broom in a few days.  This was a perfect opportunity to help get them camera ready for their BIG day.  They’re such a GORGEOUS couple!  (I’m sure they’re going to have beautiful babies!!)  Here’s a sneak peek at a few photos from the shoot:

Concept & Planning:  Couture Events by Lottie & Ebony Peoples Events & Design

Photography:  Sara & Rocky Photography

Venue & Floral Decor:  We + You Studios

I love it!  What’s your favorite scene from the shoot?  Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments below.

Have a fabulous day!!

It’s official!  Earlier today, Pantone declared that the 2012 color of the year is…*drumroll please* … Tangerine Tango!

I love it!  Tangerine Tango is sure to add lots of flavor and spice to the event, fashion, and  creative industries next year!  This color is definitely able to stand on its own but is absolutely beautiful when combined with other pops of color.  I can’t wait to see all of the “Tangerine Tango” inspired Dallas weddings next year!

Would you use this in your wedding color palette?  If so, what color would you pair it with?!

XOXO,

Ebony

(P.S. – Fuchsia and other shades of pink (my favorite color) look GREAT with Tangerine Tango!)

Amy Atlas,  the queen of gorgeous dessert displays, has done it again!  After much hard work and dedication, she recently introduced her very own Pattern Board for Design & Styling.  I, along with many others, were in jaw-dropping awe as we were introduced to this ingenious design!  There are soooo many patterns floating around and sometimes it’s difficult to recall the names of each and every one.  To those of you who are also in the creative field or just love fashion and design, here’s your new pattern guide/best friend:

This pattern board means the world to me, especially since I didn’t study art or design in school!  Amy Atlas, I thank you!  We appreciate you more than you know!

What’s your favorite pattern?  It’s so difficult for me to choose -even though my hubby always teases me about my love for animal prints! Lol

XOXOXO,

Ebony
