Get*N*Spired: Rock 'n Roll Bride



From time to time I'm going to feature inspiring and creative ideas that I find on websites, blogs, magazines, and images that might spark some ideas for your wedding day. Today I like to feature one of my favorite wedding websites:


Rock 'n Roll Bride is not your traditional wedding website. It's purely one of the most unique and illuminating websites for everything wedding, but with a cutting edge twist. I love to see photos from couples who think outside of the box for their big day. And Kat Williams, the brains behind it all, keeps a great flow of the latest and greatest.

So if you're getting married and want to add some spice to your wedding day, I highly recommend checking out Rock 'n Roll Bride.

And check out these photos from my dear friends Paul and Leanne from Sargeant Photography who were recently featured:

Wedding Stationery Design: Melahat & Kwame

Just finished up the last remaining touches for Melahat & Kwame's wedding next weekend.

I'm really looking forward to sharing some of their wedding photos because not only are two of my dear friends photographing it but also because this is going to be a beautiful cultural celebration! Stay tuned...in the meantime, here is their engagement session photographed by Sargeant Photography:

Let the beauty of what you do be what you love. - Rumi

This 13th-century Persian poet, jurist, theologian, and Sufi mystic is one of my favorite historical figures. And those are great words to live by...
