The event planning and design gurus of Alison Events have just launched a new website. You've seen their work in our pages and online (check out the weddings of Jodi and Jon, Jean and Devin, Laura and Justin, Suzanne and Adam, and yesterday's debut of Tala and Thomas).
Their new site includes pretty galleries, fun blog posts, and information about their event space consulting. Still can't get enough? You can pre-order their new book, which comes out later this year and features a quote from yours truly.

What am I craving right now? A healthy, sunless glow and a shimmery, smoldering makeup look to match. Here are the new products that are going to help me achieve it: a foolproof body bronzer, a juicy tangerine lip balm, and a bronze shadow. Try them for your beachy bridal shower or rehearsal dinner.

1. St. Tropez One Night Only Instant Glow Body Lotion; 2. Kjaer Weis Lip Tint in Sweetness; 3. Kjaer Weis Shadow in Wisdom.

Chase Cohl is a crazy-sexy-cool chick living a life only the progeny of a legendary rock-band promoter could, a gypset life (gypsy + jetsetter, yah, it's a thing) that includes playing with her band Weepaw, designing jewelry and headpieces out of lace and feathers and florals and crystals for her company Littledoe, and signing her emails "Much love & Have a magical day."
She recently put out a collection of pieces for weddings, and, if they'd have me, I'd seriously run away and live forever in the ethereal world she's created for her lookbook staring her pals Duncan Davies and Theodora Richards, daughter of The Rolling Stones' Keith Richards (Chase's dad Michael Cohl worked with the Stones for years). Here are some of the images in all their barefoot, boho wonderfulness. Her designs are almost always made to order, can be customized, and are just the finishing touch a free-spirited flower child needs.
