Happy Monday lovelies!! Thank you all so much for the positive vibes for our event launch last Thursday and your sweet words for the new design!!! You all are just so overwhelmingly nice ~ THANK YOU!! I also wanted to mention that something weird has been going on with my Bloglovin and my posts are not updating as I post them, so if you follow me on Google Friend Connect (GFC) you’ll see it right away – I also added that widget to my sidebar…I do post Monday through Friday π
Now that we have that out of the way – let’s get on to the recap!
Spring Dress Party
Spring Dress Party
We were all about details for this event and wanted brides, friends and family to see that!! Our business cards and custom water labels were made by the incredibly talented Lynn from The Inviting Company. We invited three of our favorite Boston Bloggers to be the models for the night and Shauna, Georgina and Sarah could not have been more beautiful!
A huge thank you to Amanda from Fabulous Frocks Boston for opening up her gorgeous store for the event! Without her stunning gowns there would have been no reason to have a Spring Dress Party!! We could not have been luckier to have Matthew, from Matthew Jason Photography as our photographer for the evening because he truly captured some fun moments and has a wonderful eye for details!
Through looking at all these photos I’ve realized my “arm pop” is out of control!!
My mom and I spent some quality time together on Saturday doing what we do best…shopping! I did something really out of character for myself – I bought this Longchamp bag and then promptly returned it and now I’m thinking about it again! I actually wanted to buy this bag in Paris and when I went back to get it someone had already bought it – then I couldn’t find the style and sort of forgot about it and then Saturday saw it again…so here were are again, I’m still thinking about it and this time just waiting for it to go on sale and I’m going to get it! Sorry…that was really long winded!
Ended up winding down the evening with a delicious glass of Riesling.
Sunday we spent the day with my parents and sister and could not have had a more beautiful day – it hit 86 degrees and we clearly skipped Spring!
After eating a little bit of this….
You can find me at the gym this week!!
How was your weekend? Hope you’ll link up below to share with us!

Looks like a fabulous weekend, lady! Love the dress you are wearing and that food looks amazing!!!
I LOVED all of the details from the party!! And I'm so glad you enjoyed Sunday with beautiful weather. We did too! Oh, and I hope your bag goes on sale so you can snag it again. I'd like one too!!
SO glad the event went amazing, I knew it would! And you looked gorgeous! And glad you and your mom had a great weekend. That bag is so cute and my philosophy on shopping is, if you see it and love it but can't decide whether to get it, walk away. If you're still thinking about it later and you go back and it's there, it was meant to be π Happy Monday love!

I knew your event would be glorious. Love the pics! Adore your dress and so glad the weekend was wonderful for you! You work hard and deserve some relaxation. Makes me want to sit by the pool and have a glass of Riesling with you. My favorite!

So glad that the event went well!!! Sounds like you had a great weekend (it did totally skip over Spring and head right into Summer–we have a 90 degree day this week!) Love the bag that you bought…then returned haha. I think you are having reverse buyer's remorse where you regret NOT getting something. Definitely get it if/when it goes on sale!
So glad you had a nice weekend! π
What a beautiful event! It looks like you had a very fun filled weekend, and I will definitely be at the gym this morning too!

Yeah!!!! I'm so happy to hear the event went so well (even though there was no doubt in my mind π Girl I do that same thing with bags (or really any high ticket item). Send me the link I'll start working on some coupon codes lol. You looked so gorgeous this weekend! I loved that picture with your momma!
I'm sooo glad we got to see more pics of the event today! It really was incredibly gorgeous Biana!! I love that back but I know about Longchamp prices too so I get it lol. So glad you got to have a relaxing weekend with your family!
That poolside picture looks amazing. Perfect way to end a day. It was gorgeous this week but a little hot for my taste. Where did Spring go?!
What a fabulous weekend, and of course time spent with your beautiful mama. And loving that bag! I say if you've been thinking about it for this long you should definitely keep it π
Have a fabulous week <3
P.S. YAYYYY for the GFC widget, my Bloglovin has been acting up big time lately and I'm mostly using GFC again. Glad we have both for when one is not cooperating.
Awesome weekend! Glad you were able to spend time with the fam, that's the best!
Your event looks spectacular. Great job ladies!
I removed GFC from my sidebar. So annoyed with Bloglovin' right now. Nothing is showing.
That pool scene looks divine…I had wanted some pool time this weekend, but it didn't happen. Hope you have a great week! xo

OMG all of that yummy food! Looks like a great weekend!
I'm so happy for you and your successful event!! I will be sending any Boston brides I know your way! I love the arm pop, it can be your signature pose! I have been eyeing that Longchamp bag and found one at Nordstrom Rack and have been kicking myself for not getting it. It's such a great bag! Hope you have a great week! xo
Lovely! Have a nice week sweetie!

Your event looked like it turned out wonderfully! So pretty, and you had some great attention to detail. Congrats!! It's so funny, when I look at pics of myself from an event or from one evening, I'm always like, "why did I make that face in EVERY photo?" or "why did I tilt my head like that… In every single pic?!" Haha!
I love the pics from your event! Those desserts! I don't think I could restrain myself!

What a great weekend! So glad that the event went well! You're too funny with the purse…why are you hesitant about it? And your Mother's Day stuff looked like fun! Those desserts! Have a great week, Biana!
CONGRATS on your LAUNCH! How amazing-it looked beautiful π And go for the bag. I've had my Longchamp for 6 years and love it!
Looks like your launch went wonderfully! Yay!!!
I'm so glad that your launch went well, sorry that I missed it. Let's discuss this orange bag! It's FAB! I have the navy one in the tote version, LOVE IT!! You totally should get it. Looks like it was a great weekend, great pictures!! Love that dress you are wearing.
so happy to hear the event was a success!!!
Ohhhh my that food looks amaze!!! And you look beautiful! Sounds like a perfect weekend. I really wish I was sitting at that pool with a glass of wine right about nowβ¦.
What a perfect weekend!! LOVE your dress that you wore at the launch party (and your arm pop ;)) And that food!! Perfect Mother's Day spread! Yum!! So glad you got to soak up quality time with your family!
Looks like an awesome weekend! I'm so glad your event was a success – it looked great! I bought a Longchamp bag from the Saks outlet, it was definitely cheaper than at a regular department store. I use it all the time – it seems pricy for a simple bag, but they really are well made.
The event looks like such good time and everything was beautiful! I love all the little details in things so of course loved all those little things! The time with your mom looked like so much fun and that dessert table.. yum!!
The event looked gorgeous! Sounds like you had a wonderful weekend! And I love the bag! I've had my Longchamp for years and it's still going strong! I definitely vote for picking it up when it goes on sale π Happy Monday!

all the food looks amazing!! i feel like i need to go to the gym just looking at it! glad you had a great weekend π
Your event looks like it came out beautifully! So happy for you! And if you're thinking about the bag that much I would just take the plunge and get it!

Sounds like you had a great weekend!! So funny about the arm pop. Lol!! And if you're still thinking about the bag in a day or so, just buy it. Then you know it's definitely not an impulse buy, but something you really want!!

Your event looked gorgeous, so awesome! That food spread from yesterday, oh my! I think it's safe to say you really NEED that bag π And my arm pop is out of control too! Happy Monday XO
Looks like everything went wonderfully!!!!
Girl – you WORK that arm pop – it gives curve to a body – photographer telling you! π
… fyi – don't know what's up, but on Bloglovin' – a few blogs aren't showing up till a day late… my own blog is doing that… don't know if you are having issues yourself? Frustrating! I don't wanna miss out on anything.
Wasn't the weather this weekend beautiful? We totally did skip right past Spring – but you won't be hearing any complaints here!

I'm so happy for you that your event went well. The photos are fab and I love all of those wedding gowns!! That picture of you and Gary at the event is cute too. He looks so nice in his suit hehe. Looks like the rest of your weekend was nice too. I'm glad that you enjoyed some nice weather too. π
Girl my "arm pop," is so overly done too. (; It's just so normal to me now, but everyone points it out. What a lovely event and lovely way to celebrate Mother's Day! (:
Riesling is my favorite wine! Glad you had such a great weekend & the event went well.

The event sounds so fun! Too bad I dont live in Boston, as I'm starting to plan my own wedding!
So glad your event went fabulously! Girl you keep going with that arm pop (ps look at ALL of my pics cause mine is out of control too)!
That event looks amazing and it looks like it went so well! I am guilty of arm popping wayyy too much! Love that I am not the only one. Your mother's day plans looked amazing! Hope you had such a lovely weekend!

That event looks so beautiful. Congrats on executing!! And that Mother's Day food looks suspiciously like mine⦠I'll be at the gym too!!
those dresses are to die for, how beautiful!
Sometimes it's good to splurge on yourself π and that bag is gorgeous! I definitely say get it, maybe check ebay? Sometimes they have it for cheaper, that's where I got my bag from actually. Just have to find a reputable seller.

The event looks great!! So glad it went well for you girl! My rule of thumb is that if you're still thinking about a purchase days later, that means you should probably get it! π Glad you had a good weekend! xo
the event looks so wonderful!
And I've done that…purchased an item, then returned and then still thought about it. Haha..it usually means I get it again and then keep it. π

The event sounded like a lot of fun. That dress is so cute on you! Rieseling is my fave! xo
Everything looks like it went perfectly for your event!! And I have the same arm pop problem – I blame it on my sorority days π Love that bag, you should totally get it!

That looks like such a fun and successful weekend! And one can never have too many arm pops when you know how to rock it – just ask Paris π
Oh my gosh, what a great launch event! You look amazing. Glad you had a great time with your family! Your sister's house is seriously what dreams are made of! xo
Bloglovin' is a pain in the B-U-T-T lately! I've been having the same issues… I purposely went directly to your website today to see if you'd updated b/c it wasn't showing up in my feed! That's how much I love ya! π A lot of other people are having the same problem. Several of the blogs I follow haven't been updating in bloglovin' until DAYS later. So annoying. *end rant*
I'm glad your event went so well! And I love the dress you wore!
Jealous of your pool!
I hope I am that pretty when I am your mom's age!
Oh my goodness! Your launch party looked amazing. I hope you share more photos later!! π glad you enjoyed some time with your momma! That's the best!
Wow! What a fun event!! It looks like it was amazing!
