Welcome to The Lovely Department - A collaboration between two designers (who happen to be best friends).

We love all things glamour, fashion and vintage and after years of talking, sharing and swooning over all things lovely we've decided to join together and share with the world what inspires our style and of course our work! From flea market gems to couture pieces we can only day dream about, The Lovely Department is where we'll share our newest creations, latest inspiration, accolades and any other news-worthy happenings.

Follow along as we create, find and share all things Lovely.

Ok... so I am TOTALLY cheating right now since I stole some screenshots from Emily and Meeko's wedding trailer they forwarded me. I would love to share the trailer since it made me cry my eyes out but I'll let Em and Allegra over at F & F show you that one. I will tell you that it was from the amazing videographer Josh from Rain Studios. Really cool stuff...

Now for a little montage. Just wait until we get the professional shots from Cameron Ingalls.


Mia, one of the Flower Girls...


The ridiculously gorgeous Baker sisters: Aly, Emily and Annie

Bride and Groom again... *sigh* so romantic!!!

Me and Allegra from Frenchie & Flea! We love each other...

Don't you just love photoboots at Weddings? I have to admit that I just can't get enough of them (as you can see)! Take a look at some of my favorites from Emily and Meeko's wedding this past weekend....


Get ready for a serious photobooth montage starting now:

Emily and Brooke - sporting Untamed Petals of course!


Me and Nick being silly! That black wig is ridiculous!


Me, Emily and Annie (Em's Sister)....

Again...

Me, Jenna and Jenna's Dad Bob... isn't he the cutest!

Ok, so I went in about 50 times but aren't these the best?!?!??!

My First TRUNK SHOW

2 comments


This weekend went down in history at the first ever Untamed Petals Trunk Show at The Wedding Library. With the help of my friend Carrisa we transformed our space into a shabby chic masterpiece! We met tons of great brides and had lots of fun! The Wedding Library even liked out set up so much that they asked us to keep it in the store for awhile.. yippie!









Check out the great postcards Emily over at Frenchie & Flea made for the show... so cute! Everyone loved them!






I have to say that my favorite part of the show was having the opportunity to meet and work with Ariane from Two Birds Bridesmaid. She is one of the nicest and most inspirational people I have ever met. Her dresses are stunning and her business wisdom is remarkable. She is just about to launch her 3rd location in London next month after only 2 years or so in the business... unreal!







Thank you again to Emily and Carrisa for helping make this event a HUGE success!

Take a look at some of the amazing pictures from my crafting weekend with Emily of Frenchie & Flea... they are awesome! We had so much fun putting some finishing touches on her wedding which is now only 11 days away and I can't even begin to tell you how amazing everything is going to look!


Enjoy... xoxo
