It's Derby season, y'all! While the "most exciting two minutes in sports" may come and go-go-gallop away this weekend, that doesn't mean we can't gather with our gals in serious style for the rest of the summer! We're thinking fresh mint juleps, chic chapeaus & an homage to one of the greastest & oldest gatherings in the history of the good old U.S. of A just about anytime we please! (Yes please). This means plenty of equestrian decor because who has time for DIY in the summer sunshine? If you're looking for an intimate hotspot, a purposeful wild West adventure or a chic twist on this classic gathering, put your pretty pennies on one of these 15 luxurious private dining spots to host a horsey party of your own, equestrian decor included.
Remember those silly high school superlatives that seemed so important back in the day? Poring through the year’s most famous wedding photos is kind of like that - you're instantly thinking things like, “Sofia definitely has the best smile,” and “Cameron Diaz totally wins for best musical taste,” and “Johnny is absolutely the most baller guy with his own island,” and the list goes on. But if you pay close attention, what you really start to notice is how much personality plays a role in the venue selection for each of these wedding celebrations.
We've hand picked celebrity weddings from all around the world, some with venues anyone can book and some with pretty awesome alternative spaces. Across the board, it seems that in 2015, Mother Nature takes a starring role in the majority of A-list weddings, with privacy being major concern number two. While we can't say which wedding is the all around class favorite, we can probably still take votes!

Summer days behind us, we’re welcoming the cooler weather and shorter days with all things s’mores, cider and hibernation related. In an effort to embrace the coziness of fall and the coming winter months, we’ve gathered up some of our favorite fireplaces to sit by with a good book and a big glass of wine. And bonus points: this list also includes noteworthy fireplace backdrop options for winter weddings.
Today, party animals, we’re talking Tents and Tipis. You may have noticed these beloved structures popping up everywhere. Even on a certain logo (ahem, ours). Permanent or temporary, while being both traditional and modern, they’re cool in the summer and warm in the winter, adding that wondrous “wow” factor to give us all the warm and fuzzies. They’re a bohemian touch to your bridal bash, a dose of glam to your birthday gathering and more then a smidge of special to any family, or dare we say corporate, soiree. Read on for our Top 25 Tents & Tipis, then go forth, gather and glamp.
Weekends are for adventure. Where will your next one be? We have some thoughts. Let's face it lovelies, "roughing it" just isn't for everyone. But that doesn't mean we don't like the smell of fresh air, a crackling campfire or sleeping under a blanket of stars, we just hope it includes a real mattress, massages and/or gourmet meals, in no particular order. Is that too much to ask? With the amount of hours most of us put in during a regular work week, getting out and gathering with our fave guys and gals in the Great Outdoors, beckons to us beautifully. Check out 14 of our gorgeous & glamorous glamping go-to's with serious #campvibes.
