Are you considering a destination wedding? Here's some thoughts and advice straight from Keezia, the bride we photographed last week. Why do a destination wedding? Keezia explains, "We chose to have a destination wedding because travel is our passion. I was never the girl who dreamed about my wedding when I was little, so when Grant proposed, I didn't have any preset wedding vision other than incorporating travel." Pick a place you love & be sure to visit before the wedding. Destination weddings are a great way of sharing somewhere that is special to you with your friends and family. For Keezia and Grant, they'd come to Sayulita with friends for a few years. Keezia also points out, "Since we visit Sayulita every year, we had the luxury to look at venues and interview coordinators the year prior." She makes a really good point. It's really important to see a place in person before you arrive the week of your wedding. Pictures online can be deceiving. Be true to yourself. Keezia explains, "Many destination weddings are held at resorts, but we knew that wasn't for us." I completely agree with this one. It's so important to put your character and your style into your wedding! She goes on to say, "By having a destination wedding you inherently give up much of your control, so you have to be alright with that." Keezia is a self proclaimed control freak, so she actually enjoyed giving up the control on the areas that weren't overly important to her, freeing up her time to focus on the things that mattered most. Find a great coordinator. Keezia and Grant hired a local coordinator. Keezia mentioned initially liking her because she was constantly quick at responding to email, something very important if that's the main way you'll be communicating throughout the process. It's also very important to fully trust your coordinator if they're going to be making a lot of the decisions for you. I love Keezia's perspective on this, as it isn't something I would have thought of. She says, "I know that a coordinator is not in everyone's budget but Yazmin was worth every penny and paid for herself by negotiating prices with the local vendors that I wouldn't get on my own." One minor detail that I LOVED...Keezia and Grant gave their bridal party walkie talkies! What a great idea for keeping in touch with everyone staying along a beach in a foreign country. Great way to avoid crazy cell phone bills and to keep tabs on things. See more of Keezia & Grant's Wedding here... Well, what do you think? I often imagine doing a destination wedding when Jason and I renew our vows...yep, pretty sure we will do that some day. We go to so many weddings and have so may great ideas, it's a must. Happy Wedding Wednesday! Images via jkoephoto.com.

They're not scary—see for yourself.
Image: Paul / FreeDigitalPhotos.net Plenty of brides and grooms forgo serving alcohol entirely at their wedding because they don’t want to foot the bill for a full bar. There’s a middle ground between a dry wedding and an expensive open bar, though – create a signature cocktail (or two) just for your wedding day. These signature cocktails reflect the bride and groom’s tastes, as well as reduce the bar bill. You can even create your own signature peacock wedding cocktail drink by following these suggestions. 1. Start by selecting one or two types of liquor to use in the drink (or drinks). This keeps costs down because it doesn’t require opening a lot of expensive bottles. Choose a neutral spirit, such as vodka or rum, rather than one that might alienate some guests such as gin or tequila. 2. The next step is coming up with a cocktail that reflects you as a couple, whether it’s the beverage the two of you sipped the night he proposed or a classic drink that you have always loved. For example, if the two of you met or got engaged in New York, a perfect signature cocktail might be the Manhattan. 3. Another approach is choosing a traditional drink and renaming it for the purposes of your wedding. If the bride’s favorite drink is a cosmopolitan, label it at the bar as “The Mrs.” cocktail, while the groom’s favorite drink, the gin and tonic,” can be served as “The Mr.” cocktail. Other cutesy cocktail options include renaming the drink after your last name, so a sour apple martini becomes “The Smith-tini.” 4. Here’s a new take on a classic poem – offer four signature cocktails labeled “Something old,” “Something new,” “Something borrowed,” and “Something blue.” The “old” cocktail might be a classic drink such as the martini or sidecar. Something “new” could be a drink you created yourself or contains a type of liquor that just hit the market, such as a new variety flavored vodka. The “Something borrowed” drink could be the favorite cocktail of the maid of honor, which you “borrowed” from her. Finally, “Something blue” could be a blue Hawaiian, blue margarita, or even Blue Moon beer. 5. Two additional points to take into consideration is the season and color palette of your wedding. Some brides choose to serve signature cocktails in the same color that the rest of the wedding features, such as a lemon drop if the bridesmaids are wearing yellow. For peacock weddings, the color of your drinks can be in hues of pure Blue or Green. The choice is left to you. However, this isn’t a requirement. It is a good idea, though, to match the cocktail to the season of your wedding – it’s much more fun to sip on a spiked apple cider during the autumn and a fresh mojito during the summer. With signature peacock wedding cocktails, the guests get to try out a new and fun cocktail and the bride and groom save money and personalize their wedding – a win-win for everyone.

When I design weddings I love the different styles we can apply according to the clients and the array of venues we work with. Vill...
Halo engagement rings are always lovely—we're particularly fond of them in yellow and rose gold. But since they've surged in popularity over the past five or so years, a plain halo setting can feel a little "been there, seen that." (Particularly for people who {ahem! } look at engagement rings all day long.) If you want the prettiness and extra sparkle that come with a halo setting—the result of a diamond surrounded by diamonds—but don't want an engagement ring that looks like all your friends' you're in luck: We found nine next-generation halo engagement rings that feel totally fresh. Lots are by West Coast designer Single Stone, who's just doing new takes on diamonds-on-diamonds better than anyone right now. Engagement Ring 1 Celeste Engagement Ring from Single Stone, $10,800. Engagement Ring 2 Brigette Engagement Ring from Single Stone, $10,500. Engagement Ring 3 Yellow Diamond Engagement Ring from Croghan's Jewel Box, $15,800.
