Baci Designer: Wedding Wednesday

I am a firm believer that surrounding yourself with successful people is the key to having success in your own life. If your friends and family don't provide inspiration, it's hard to ignite that spark all on your own. When your friends are equal parts creative and passionate, it's easy to constantly be influenced to reach for that next level.

I'm blessed to be surrounded by so many talented people in life. My circle of friends includes photographers (Alaina at Ace of Images, Brandy J and Sticky of Brandy J Photography), designers (Agnes from Blossom Accents), DJs (Anna and Justin of Something New Entertainment) and the all-around fabulous like Jessica of A Foxy Wedding + Foxy Social Media, The Enlows from Loco Photo Booths and Triple-threat Actress/Singer/Model Cassie Simone. My "virtual" friends are amongst some of the most incredible people as well - Abi of Abi Q Photography, Annette from Chaviano Couture, Alicia at Sophie - A Design Boutique, Joy and Garrett of Garrett Nudd Photography + Cobblestone Rue, Lisa with Sapling Press and Tracy at Simply Stated Designs. And when it comes to family, the amount of talent certainly doesn't come up short. . . just to name a few: my multi-talented sister (this girl can take photos and organize an event like the best of them), my amazing Mother (cake baker and all-around creative lady), the Knitting and Baking Accountant Cousin Rachelle, Cake Baker Extraordinaire Grandma and melt-your-heart-with-their-voices cousins, aunts and uncles!

These full-of-talent souls provide me with inspiration day-in and day-out. . . but when I need specific wedding visions I hit up my favorite bridal-focused blogs. These are some of the best places you can find inspiration for your big day!! So take ideas from the incredible talent you surround yourself with and mix in a little bit of goodness from some of the following:
