Doing the flowers for my friends’ weddings is a joy! It’s so fun to go to the Wholesale Flower Mart – pick out the best of everything and make something beautiful together that will last in their wedding photos forever. Margaret had a vision for her wedding that started with a whole bunch of olive branches…

More details from Margaret’s wedding today! The facility at Dallidet Adobe is so lovely, with lush gardens and brick patios. The one difficult piece is a large gazebo on the Avocado Patio made from branches that looks nice in person, but a little “halloween spooky” in photos. In our research, we found photos of weddings…

The photos from Margaret’s August wedding are here! Let’s spend the week recapping all the details that went into my friend lovely San Luis Obispo event. With a theme of olive branches and Spain at the Dallidet Adobe – I really think it was one of the prettiest weddings ever. To start, the invitations! Margaret’s…

Beets, maybe only second to kale in the delivered of undeserved dietary smugness (especially when, as I usually do, they are combined with butter and cheese). The dark red color, the earthy flavor, just one bite of a beet brings on a feeling of virtue. Usually, I use beets in a citrus salad with blue cheese and a…

Rob has become largely vegetarian since we returned from our European trip…that, and he’d also like to open a “saucisson sec” import business to bring over the delicious French dry sausage we ate nearly everyday. Maybe France and Spain spoiled him for delicious meats and nothing can compare? More realistically, it’s just a healthy, good…

The invitations, the shower, the bachelorette party and the flower mart shopping…now we’re just waiting to get the official photos from her wedding to talk all about her pretty day and all the special Pinterest-ready details she put together. Stay tuned for just a couple more weeks!  

My dear friend Margaret is married off! What a wonderful wedding she had in San Luis Obispo last weekend. After a busy week of last minute trips to Britex for ribbon and Amazon orders for all the tiny details we’d forgotten, I headed to the San Francisco Flower Mart early Friday morning. There’s been a wholesale flower…

You may have been noticing some issues with EmilyStyle.com being unavailable ever since we migrated to the new platform in June. The hosting service we set-up, Bluehost, has been the WORST to work with and we’re migrating to a new hosting service this week. Hang in there for a few more days!

We had a such a great time at Margaret’s spa night bachelorette party over the weekend! I’ll be sharing all the details of the event – from our sunset session at Nob Hill Spa to dancing up a storm at the Tonga Room. But, first! Let’s take a closer look at the party favors for this elegant evening.…

Wedding season is just heating up here in California, where late summer and early fall weather tends to be nicer than June. And, with it, time to consider buying wedding presents. I think if I had a different job than running my current company, I would be a registry consultant at Gump’s in downtown San…
