Every bride deserves to feel beautiful on her wedding day. And while most of us aren’t lucky enough to have naturally flawless skin, that doesn’t mean it’s unachievable. Working with a professional to address your skin concerns is the best way to safely get great results. An aesthetician or board certified cosmetic surgeon can make personalized recommendations and help find the right treatments for your skin.
To get you started, we’ve created this guide to non-surgical skincare treatments that can help you have beautiful, smooth skin on your big day!…
Just over a year ago, Cathey Lee and Ryan said “I do” at Pulaski Heights United Methodist Church in Little Rock. Later, they celebrated at a gorgeous reception at the Country Club of Little Rock. The two met while attending Auburn University, where Ryan played football. To pay tribute to this special place, they incorporated their school colors into the reception send-off and the groom’s table. Cathey Lee describes their day as “Southern, classic, and elegant.” We couldn’t agree more! Enjoy all of these gorgeous photographs from Lance Johnston Weddings.

We don’t want you to miss out on the sweet and stately summer wedding of Stephanie Bass and Chris Bradley! We’ve gathered our favorite photos of the day, originally featured in the most recent Weddings in Arkansas issue, as well as exclusive bonus photos you will only find here! Enjoy! {See full story in our digital edition}
The couple shared their first dance to John Legend’s “Stay With You.” “The words of the song perfectly describe our relationship and the marriage we hope to have,” says the couple.
The groom’s cake was a tribute to his fraternity, Kappa Alpha Psi, and it bore the brotherhood’s crest.
The bride’s cake was a four-layer confection featuring strawberry, chocolate with raspberry filling, and two layers of butter cake, all topped with cream cheese icing.
Stephanie’s mother made her exquisite wedding gown. “She has made a lot of my attire for important occasions throughout my life, from homecoming court to prom dresses, so it was only right that she make my wedding dress,” says the bride.
The modern, elegant design of the Clinton Presidential Center was the perfect reception venue. “We were immediately sold on the beauty of the open space and the windows in the great hall,” says Stephanie.
“Yellow has always been my favorite color, so it was [a] must-have,” says Stephanie of the palette selection.
What a lovely occasion! We are so happy that Stephanie and Chris shared their joyful day with us. Best wishes for a happy marriage!

We loved experiencing the set-up of the tabletops featured in our spring/summer 2013 issue. Event and floral designers from around the state shared their most inspiring creations–tables full of eclectic colors, the enchanting outdoors, and inspiration from the dazzling 1920′s. We’re taking you behind the scenes to the photoshoot! {photography by Nancy Nolan}
Here’s our first tabletop. It features bold colors, stripes, and a mix of fresh flowers.
