Kelly Clarckson & Brandon Blackstock

Kelly & Brandon

From her beautiful engagement photos to her stunning gown.  Kelly and Brandon Blackstock, married this past weekend. The intimate wedding took place in Blackberry Farm in Knoxville, Tennessee.

The beautiful couple had originally planned a big lavish wedding at their house in Nashville, however;  the couple then decided to forget about the entire planning and elope.  “I’m so over it. It’s so overwhelming,” Clarkson said of wedding planning. “We’re not doing the big huge one. We’re just gonna go off with the kids and go get married and it’s just gonna be literally, seriously small.”  Good for her!

The stunning bride wore a long sleeved lace Temperley gown. Her head piece was by Maria Elena. 

I must admit, I am crazy about this dress.  I am in love with the simplicity, elegance, and chic, all in one gown.

Kristin & Jay Cutler

Kristin Cavallari Marries Jay Cutler.

It was the perfect day for Mrs. Cutler



"The flowers and everything were very simple but it was very warm and cozy," says the former star of MTV's hit shows Laguna Beach and The Hills, who married pro quarterback Jay Cutler on Saturday. "It was all about the lighting and the candles and the atmosphere was just so warm. It was absolutely perfect." 

pting not to see her groom before the wedding, Cavallari was nervous to walk down the aisle at Woodmont Christian Church in Nashville on Saturday, but the couple's 10-month-old son, Camden Jack, paved the way for a smooth ceremony. 

"We had two flower girls so one of them pulled him and our nephew in a wagon, and the other flower girl was throwing rose petals behind," Cavallari tells PEOPLE. "I obviously didn't get to see it, but everyone thought it was just the cutest thing. I can't wait to see pictures!"

Wedding Concepts

Tips for choosing a wedding concept also know as theme,   I thought this would an appropriate post for two reasons.  First, I keep getting asked what would be a great theme, and second, It is something you should check of your list 10 months before your special day!

Below are a few tips.

1 | Your Concept Should Reflect Your Personal Couple Style
 If you choose a concept, it should reflect your personal style.  Is your relationship simple? Fun-loving? etc..  Are one of you from another country and incorporating multiple cultures into your wedding?  Make your wedding yours.

2| Make Sure Your Wedding is Timeless
Have you ever looked back on something you've done and said, "why did I ever wear that?" Think about this when selecting your theme!  You don't want to do something and regret it 15 years from now, make sure your concept represents you and your fiance.

3| Consider  Your Budget
This is tough because it is hard to resist every idea or item related to your wedding concept (theme).  Take into consideration your budget and figure out what is most important to you and your fiance on your wedding day!  

The benefit of having a concept is it brings some cohesiveness to your wedding from the ceremony to the reception!

One last thought on concepts ( themes)... just because you are getting married close to a holiday, don't feel like your wedding has to reflect the holiday theme.  Instead, do what you want! :)

You Can Own A Wedding Dress Once Worn by Beyonce

You Can Own A Wedding Dress Once Worn by Beyonce

The opulent Baracci wedding dress Beyoncé wore in her 2011 “Best Thing I Never Had” music video just surfaced on preownedweddingdresses.com this week, for the Hollywood price of $30,000 (a big markdown from the original $85,000 fee).

An off-white sweetheart ball gown with flecks of gold, the hand-draped double silk size 4 creation is embroidered with French lace and covered with hand-sewn Swarovski pendants and crystals. According to thepreownedweddingdresses.com blog, Beyoncé “reportedly stumbled on the dress while walking by the designer’s Beverly Hills boutique, and asked to wear it in her video.”

The opulent gown is seemingly a far cry from the simpler white dress Beyoncé wore to her own wedding in 2008, a look she shared a peek of in her 2011 “I Was Here” video (the girl certainly had a thing for bridal wear that year, eh?).

No word on who’s selling the gown.
