DDE Long Island Wedding Teaser

Fridays are the best days of the week yes?! Well it's just about to get better!

Let me just tell you how much this beautiful bride means to me. We met on New Years Eve last year. It was literally December 31st and when we met it was instant connection. Her now husband even asked us, after twenty minutes of non stop conversations, if we had met before! Every vendor meeting, walk-through or lunch date, we were asked if we were related or had been friends for a long time or something to that effect. Again. Nada. Since then I have had the wonderful privilege of not just calling her a DDE bride but an awesome friend that I can spill my secrets to after a bottle of wine. (yes I said bottle, I promise we're good). Also, I mean sure, I'm OK with being asked if we're related because WOW isn't she beautiful?! Eeek!

So so happy to share this little sneak peek of my friend and beautiful beautiful bride Stephanie. Wait until you see the rest of these pictures. You'll fall in love just like I did.

Happy Friday friends! Enjoy the weekend!

Dulce Dreams Events: "Forever Linked" Featured on Ruffled! Part II

Part II of my recap on our Love Locks shoots is up and running today! You guys can check out Part I HERE in all of its glory and of course check out our feature on Ruffled Blog. All of these beautiful pictures were taken by my friend Mikkel Paige. Which by the way, I can't wait to see more of her work grace this blog and my website when we work a wedding together this fall! Woohoo!

Now without further adieu... 

THIS Bar Marquee! Two of a Kind NYC was gracious enough to supply the most gorgeous lights for this shoot and whoa did they deliver. How fun is this?! I also really love these lanterns filled with colorful blooms. New and creative decor....

Serious kudos to my friend and photographer Mikkel for seeing this insanely gorgeous mosaic on the subway wall, steps away from our venue. NYC is truly stunning isn't it?! And with this gorgeous gown, our bride, her bouquet and those pink lips just POP!

Fun fact about this gown... it is SO heavy! It literally took two of us to hold it up and have our bride slip into it. Hundreds of chains (real chains folks) dangled from this dress and literally chimed as she walked out and about. Della Giovanna is a true artist!

  A special fun and behind the scenes treat from NST Pictures below! Enjoy!

XOXO
