With my youngest son's wedding weekend behind usI thought I would begin my sharing about the absolutely
Wonderful Wedding Weekendwith
What I Wore
as I wait for the real wedding photos to be finished.
I looked for months for the perfect
Mother of the Groom Dress
I was so happy how it all came together!I wanted a dress that first of all
~ Felt like me.
~ Spoke to the event
~ Spoke to venue(which was a gorgeous historic ranch in Carlsbadhere in Southern California)~ Was Weather appropriate( which was SoCal summer)~ and of course most importantly made me feel confident and happy to wear!My wonderful dress is from Beholden HERE
Besides finding the perfect outfitI had my fillers done by the marvelous
Marichelle at My Skin Services HERE
She is a true artist!I have them done every 6 months.
I am sharing thisbecause I think it is important to be transparent.I am not saying having processes done is right for everyonebut for meI am all in for things that make aging better.I know I have more to give othersWhen I feel good about me.
My ostrich feather shrugwas the perfect pieceto add in some glam and whimsy!I ordered it from Beholden HEREI adored wearing it!
My shoes were a jute platform.Not as dressy as I would usually do for a weddingbut they were perfect for the venue walking surface.
I ordered them from Zara HERE
My bracelets are from my shop HERE
I will be adding them into my shop next week.
My necklace is one of my favorite shops in San Diego
Chateau Belage HERE
My sunglasses are from Free People HERE
I chose my shell bag for the eveningto continue the coastal, bohemian theme I was going for.I don't have a source for this piecesas I have had this beauty for ages.
I chose to wear my hair down,which is very unusual for me for an event.
But I wanted to have a bit of SoCal easy vibe to my ensemble.And I am very happy with the juxtaposition.
I had both my hair an makeup done for the event.
Here is a picture of our family at the wedding.It was a bit bittersweet without my motherwho died last month.But I made quite a great intent to focus on all of the love of that day.I'm sure she was watching from above.And I was ever so grateful that my dad did make the weddingas he was in dire health himself just three weeks ago in ICU.
My absolute favorite part of the wedding(besides seeing Hunter tear up as he saw Megan come down the aisle)was the Mother Of The Groom Dance.He chose the song
I am so absolutely proud of my sonand ever so grateful and blessedto have Megan join our family!!And I adore her family as well!
Thank you my friends for visiting here.I will continue to share more about thisgorgeous wedding as pictures come in.
My next post about the wedding will be about the
The Rehearsal Dinner we did at the lake.It was truly another magical night!
As always my friends
I wish you love and joyas you style your life
