Borrowed, Blue, Old And New

The bride's Jimmy Choo Heels

Like most anticipated celebrations, a wedding always seems to fly by in the blink of an eye. This past weekend was an unforgettable whirlwind of fun watching one of my best friends become a Mrs. I managed to hold back tears at the littlest moments but just about lost it when I saw her walk down the aisle on the arm of her dad. It was quite possibly the most beautiful wedding I've been to set against a lush Montecito property, The Hahn estate. Here are a few favorite bits from the weekend.
The bride's Herve Leger dress she wore to the rehearsal dinner
 Each bridesmaid had a different hairstyle. I loved this side knot updo. 
 The bride wore a silk Yohji Yamamoto robe to get ready in
 Each bridesmaid wore vintage rhinestone jewelry picked out by the bride
 Something borrowed, the bride's grandmothers ring
The maid of honor's vintage clutch
 An adorned bridesmaid
A high Audrey Hepburn-esque bun
Champagne toasts!
A gift from the bride—white robes with our initials embroidered in gold
 An elegant updo
 Pale pink nails, vintage jewelry and effortlessly cool updos. 
 Bridesmaid dresses by Tibi
The bride, moments before putting on her Monique Lhullier wedding dress

I've always been opposed to the idea of bridesmaids but I think you have single-handedly changed my mind! I love the idea of everyone having their own unique hairstyle and wearing different jewelry. You look stunning as always!

Which Lhullier did she wear? Scarlet is my favorite. Simple lace with the cut out back. I dream of it... Seriously. I agree that all that loveliness in one room must have been incredible.
