Ticking off Sunsets

If you google the top things you should do in a lifetime, watching the sunset in Oia- Santorini is always part of those lists. What they fail to mention is that if you do it while sharing your best friend’s wedding, you will be ticking more than one box.

Everyone has bucket lists.  Visit, eat, watch, travel, jump… Continue reading “Ticking off Sunsets”

Collaboration with Something Blue

There are two important choices a bride will have to make regarding her wedding: Whom to marry and What to wear. Choosing the groom should be easy if only you follow your heart…but the dress. Oh my! And here is where you thank your lucky starts for a place like Something Blue. We previously shared our thoughts regarding this beautiful bridal boutique in the heart of Beirut HERE.  But it was only a couple of weeks ago where we got to experience the real wedding frenzy. Cynthia Nakhle, owner of Something Blue, approached us and some fellow bloggers to play bride-to-be for a day. And we loved it! Guided by Cynthia’s advice, each one of us chose a gorgeous dress. It was definitely easier than expected.  She certainly made it fun, effortless and entertaining. It was also amazing to work with photographer Mokhtar Beyrouth and the spontaneity he welcomed while shooting at the beautiful boutique in Gemmayze.

Our advice: don’t just hit any store and wait for the dress to fall on your lap. Make sure you attend shops like Something Blue where you will feel at ease with the person attending you, where you will get the knowledgeable advice and most importantly, where you are bound to find a dress that will make your special day as memorable as it should be.

Our Best Friend’s Wedding

By this time of the year, you might have already been to a dozens of weddings. The odds are a neighbor, a colleague or a childhood friend tied the knot this summer. We certainly did have our share of dinner parties but last Sunday it was different. That one friend you really call your best: our Nanunti. Fashionable as ever, she walked down the aisle, married the love of her life and danced all night! We enjoyed every single moment. We had three phones and two cameras but by the end of the night all we were left with were clapping hands. It really might be true that the best moments of your life and of those you love can’t be photographed; you are just too busy enjoying them. Here are some of the pictures we managed to take. And to the most striking bride we will say again: May this new phase of your life put your most beautiful dreams to shame. Love you.
