I don’t know what it is about three-day weekends, but they always seem to mess up the accompanying week for me. None of the days feel right. For instance, I woke up today completely convinced it was already Saturday. In any case, we had a fabulous little week here on the blog! And we are gearing up for an equally fabulous, if not more so, week next week!

We also received some exciting news yesterday! Heart Love Weddings has been added to the Knotist! We are so very excited and honored to be included in this new venture! Be sure to check out the Knot News daily for posts from the top wedding blogs in the industry! Fabulousness galore! :)

What we indulged in this week…

{On Monday} We bid summer a fond farewell this Labor Day.

{On Tuesday} The prettiest of pretty details including to-die-for rustic florals, gorgeous Jimmy Choo shoes, and a mash potato martini bar came to life in this rustic fall wedding from ZoomWorks Photography!

{On Wednesday} Rustic red fall wedding inspiration board with a subtle back-to-school feel!

{Wednesday’s 2nd} Join us in welcoming the newest vendors to the Vendor Boutique!

{On Thursday} A little lighthearted post on love according to kids!

{On Friday} The cuteness factor is off the charts for the fishbowl centerpieces complete with live fish and hot pink limo bus in this classic beach and barn wedding from Brooke Christl Photography!

{Saturday Snapshot} Whispered kisses.

From the Bridal Blog Swap:

Not every bride wants to rock a princess gown with a full chapel train on their wedding day. Some gals just want to keep it short n’ sweet. This week, The Broke-Ass Bride rounds up all the best in knee length and tea length gowns, and they all have mercifully small price tags to match!

Get a sneak peek of Kim Kardashian’s OPI nail polish ‘Kim-pletely In Love” and find out when the wedding color hits stores, on BRIDEfinds.

So what do you get your about-to-be-married friend who’s more into pearls than stilettos? What about your wild BFF who’s likely to be the first one dancing on the table. Check out Jordan Reid’s suggestions for Bachelorette Gifts from G-Rated to R-Rated over on Ramshackle Glam.

Every Last Detail has another Style Dictionary shoot to inspire you all this week! This style is awesome and a new favorite… Backyard Glam!

We are utterly in LOVE with this alternative to a bridesmaid bouquet in this Lakeside Chic Wedding from Ryan Ray Photography on Wedding Chicks.
