Dresses with character

Tadashi Shoji

I've found the dress of my dreams, but if I was still on the wedding dress hunt, I'd without a doubt give these two beauties a try. I can't get over how much character each of them have...truly unique. And, I'm kind of a sucker for texture, so for that they make me giddy.

Tonight I took a little trip with my bud Katy. We've known each other since our high school days...WHOA. And, now we're both engaged, and excited to plan our upcoming weddings!

We headed downtown to the Sofitel Chicago Watertower Hotel for the Wedding Salon: Luxury Bridal Event. 56 exhibitors were on hand to fill your every bridal need. The night included live music, dancing, tasting portions, makeup touchups, manicures, photobooths, and more...

The highlights of the evening for me were the live music, tasting portions, makeup touchups, Magnolia Photobooth, and beautiful tablescapes. Ladies, checkout this wedding event next time it rolls into town.

O Baby Baby, buh buh Baby

Speaking of children, you should checkout the talented Mimi Campaigne. Mimi is based here in Chicago with a primary focus on her loves: capturing the world through her lens, and family. She's a mama herself to a beautiful baby girl, Louise.

So if you were thinking you need a new family portrait or photos of your children, run don't walk over to mimi's blog.

Happy Friday!
