Wearing All Black to a Wedding

Black is the New Black

If you’ve been reading along for a few weeks, you probably know by now that we’ve gone to a handful of weddings in the past month. You probably also know that I’m rarely caught in an all-black ensemble. I think black on black looks super chic on other people, but for some reason, I don’t like it on me. But when I saw this dress online, I thought it was the perfect combination of funky and sleek. I feel kind of like a victorian cowgirl in it. Or like I just stepped out of Westworld. (Sidenote: if you’re not watching Westworld, what the f*ck are you doing?!)

We shot these photos just before sunset on our way into the city for the wedding of our dear friends. I’ve always loved weddings, but now that I’ve planned/had one, I enjoy and appreciate them even more. I think my favorite part of weddings are the vows (duh) or the first dance. Although both of those things are a total blur in my memory from my own wedding. We’re supposed to get our wedding video back soon, so I hope that it will bring back some of the memories lost to the mayhem of the day. Speaking of our wedding video, have you seen our teaser?

2016 has been busy: 7 weddings down (including our own), only 1 more to go! Shout out to all our homies who tied the knot this year, and invited us to celebrate with them—we love you so goddamn much!
