It! Inspiration: Ombre

 - by It! Weddings & Events

The Ombre effect is all the rage in fashion, hair, and even nail polish, so why not adopt this latest trend to add up-to-the-minute style to your wedding day?  A French term meaning gradual or shaded, this color effect can be a subtle theme throughout your decor or the focus of one main component, such as the cake or your dress.  However you utilize this latest fashion movement, a little Ombre in your day will ensure that your wedding doesn’t blend in with the rest!

We’re Obsessed!: The Wedding of Barbie & Ken

 - by It! Weddings & Events

At first glance this looks like gorgeous detail shot of a Bride’s designer gown, but take a look at a few more photos from this wedding album to see the fabulously creative work of photographer,  Beatrice de Guigne.

Almost every little girl at one time or another created this very wedding for Barbie and Ken, and let’s face it, some of us were a little obsessed with the details. Who would have thought it could be captured on film just as perfectly as we had imagined it?

Feel like a kid again, and check out the full album on Glamour Weddings.

We’re Obsessed!: Kim’s Fairytale Wedding

 - by It! Weddings & Events

When reality TV star Kim Kardashian wed her delicioulsy tall beau, the bride was far from the only one in white. In fact, the entire bridal party wore white gowns designed by the one and only Vera Wang. Of course the bodacious Kim was no wallflower in a sea of white! Her Vera Wang gown with full tulle skirt, Basque waist and Chantilly lace applique was a princess’ dream, perfect for floating the Armenian diva down the aisle.

During the first dance, Kim appeared in the second and her favorite gown of the evening, a sexier Georgette mermaid dress with hand pieced Chantilly lace applique on the bodice. The skirt had hand-cut organza petals intermixed with Chantilly lace motifs and organza spring embroidery.

The final gown of the evening was a bias-cut crepe-back satin gown with V-neck and circle skirt. Talk about swoon!! Va va va voom!

It! Inspiration: It! Girls rock pink in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month!

 - by It! Weddings & Events

As October brings the first signs of fall (in Florida, that means temps below 90 degrees, a moment here and there without a torrential downpour, and a cool pumpkin ale in the garden), Breast Cancer Awareness Month invites us to turn our attention to the amazing women who’ve battled breast cancer. Whether personally or for a loved one, we carry the pink torch to support research and rehabilitation for the It! Girls who need it most. To that end, here’s a little inspiration in shades of pink, the hue of love and promise.
