This month's Olivia Kim-curated Pop-In shop - Pop-In@Nordstrom: Faded - focuses on unique, easygoing style for men and women, combining broken-in fabrics and precision craft. Here we zero in on one of our featured brands, Bonum.

Life does strange things to us. It somehow puts a veneer of mundane on even the most thrilling of things. Where once a single touch could make you melt in a frenzy of passion, now you may lie apart and think about the kids, the bills and the mortgage.

I guess it's easiest to begin at the beginning...the week prior to the wedding. With everything up in the air (wedding locations, reception start time, etc.), I was a ball of anxiety. I had taken the three days before we left off of work, which was great because I had lots of grooming appointments; plus, we still had last minute projects to finish.

Last week we started a spring tidy-out in our basement. We prepared the bikes for the season and took out our balcony table. Then our parents called and asked for help in their cellars. We couldn't miss a chance of finding priceless treasure.

Hive, I'm consolidating our first three days into one post. We're going fast and loose, because I know everyone wants to get to the pretty wedding pictures. (And, I know how unexciting looking at a bunch of pictures of strangers is.)

So, I missed this entire part of the ceremony (obviously, because I was tucked away), so all my commentary is based off the photos. I had done an order of procession, but I guess the resort doesn't do that sort of thing.

As I mentioned in my last post, I am a big freak, and had a car service pick us up four hours before our flight departed (despite the fact that we live a mere 30 minutes away from the airport).

You guys! I think I'm ready to start my recaps. Our pro pics arrived, and I've got a lot of pre-written posts about the week before (and after) the wedding to get us started. So, I'm going out on a limb here and getting this recap party started.

After cocktail hours, we wandered around the resort taking pictures. We took pictures for probably over two hours, so I'm breaking them up into two part. Part 1 is pics on land! I'm sorry there are so many. It was so, so hard to narrow them down.

After we had arrived, we (and our luggage) were escorted to the Excellence Club Lounge for check in. We provided our hotel documents and passports, and got all checked in. (And, another glass of champagne was poured for yours truly.) Next stop...our room: After we settled in, we decided to make our way back to the lobby.

I know that people spend a lot of time writing their wedding ceremony. Um, we didn't. Pastor York had two versions of the ceremony: traditional and contemporary. We chose contemporary and told him that we also had personalized vows (in addition to the traditional ones), and I told him that my mom wanted to do a reading.

After we parted ways at 10:30, the ladies hit the Mille spa to get ready. I had a hair and make up appointment at 11:00, and they let us hang out in the spa all morning long.

We woke up bright and early on our wedding day. We had asked the wedding party to come to our room at 10:00 AM, and everyone was prompt and on time. I handed out the hard copies of the wedding-day schedule, and we went over the timeline.

Posted: Bridal Guide's "Gowns" Pinterest board features over a whopping 6,000 stunning styles (and counting). Graphic lace , plunging backs , light-as-air ball gowns and off-the-shoulder sleeves emerged as some of the year's most popular trends. Check out our countdown of the most-pinned dresses from 2014!

As embedded in the fashion industry as Maurizio Donadi is-he's worked for major brands and consults for several more-he's ambivalent about it in general, questioning what it is and why it operates the way it does. Why so much mass-produced excess? And why so serious?

Here's the next set of wedding party portraits. We hit the beach! All photos are from Phil Steingard Studios. It started sprinkling just as we finished taking pictures.We headed back to the lobby to meet up with everyone at the Martini Bar. This may or may not have happened...twice.

After our vows, it was time to exchange the rings and finish the paperwork. All photos are by Phil Steingard Studios. Ring Exchange For thousands of years, lovers have exchanged rings as a token of their vows. These rings represent your gifts to each other as you wear them through the years.

After the ceremony it was cocktail hours! We (the wedding party) actually got to spend about 30 minutes at cocktail hours. Which was AWESOME! There is nothing better than actually getting to enjoy the fruits of your wedding-planning labors. All photos are from Phil Steingard Studio.
