BRIDESMAIDS MONDAY: New Years Eve Masquerade + Sarah Seven Blythe

Whenever the ladies over at Paprika ask to borrow one of our dresses we are beyond excited. The styling and the work they produce is just magical. I am in love with this winter shoot they did for the newest Winter Issue and was inspired to put together a lookbook for bridesmaids and some bridal accessories from Rent the Runway that fit with this Sarah Seven dress and a New Years Eve Masquerade theme!! Would you be brave enough to have your ladies shining in blinged out bridesmaids dresses? It is probably one of my favorite looks for bridesmaids if it fits the theme + of course doesn't outshine your own wedding dress... Anyway, to shop Sarah Seven call us at (912)200-4794, e-mail ivoryandbeau@gmail.com or click here!!

SIMPLY BORROWED: Forest Hills Golf Club

Gwen by Sarah Seven has been so popular lately at the shop! (Check out this sneak peak our bride Summer in Gwen!) So what better time to show off this styled shoot by Kyle Shell + Everthine Vintage! This gorgeous shoot was done at Forest Hills Golf Club, and features pops of color, gold sequins, and the most amazing gray chairs! We love how the silver sparkles of Gwen look on film in the sunset. So pristine!

SIMPLY BORROWED: Nautical at the Marshes

Today is a styled shoot brought to you by Bittersweet Beau Photo and Design!  It was shot at a private residence at Whitmarsh Island, and even features a boat! The dress is Gwen by Sarah Seven, and is one of our favorites! She has just the right amount of sparkle, and a low open back. Brides love her bateau neckline and cap sleeves. She reminds us of the 4th of July, fireworks and romantic evenings <3

SIMPLY BRIDAL: Bridal Separates

We love bridal separates. Like really really love. So today we had some fun at the shop mixing and matching bridal separates together to make several different looks. We just love how many options there are and how brides get the chance to really customize their look. PLUS, bridal separates gives you the option of having more than one dress. We started with this adorable short mini gold sequin dress from Pure Magnolia and just started adding on the layers for several fun bridal looks!! We will have Pure Magnolia's gowns through Friday May 9th! If you are interested in coming in to check out the collection call us at (912)200-4794, e-mail at ivoryandbeau@gmail.com or click here!!

If you didn't get to check out yesterday make sure you go on over to The Lovely Find today to see our Fondue Bohemian Bridal Inspiration shoot we did photographed by Teresa of Memories n More!!! This shoot was the first we got to do using Ivory + Beau's bridal gowns + accessories so it was super extra special to both Adrienna + I!! We picked a gorgeous lacy gown by Rebecca Schoneveld + Sarah Seven's golden sequin gown for the shoot and a few bridal accessories by Hushed Commotion. Also, it was one of the first styled shoots we did where we really decided to push ourselves out of our comfort zones + with that came the mini pineapple + artichoke + feathers bridal bouquet!!! Amanda of The Creative Porcupine made all the printables for the shoot and they turned out awesome!! We are super excited that we are working with her again on a collaboration this weekend with Mackensey Alexander for Ruffled Blog!
