Dreaming

I'm dreaming of a little "Father of the Bride" inspired house today. I'm such a sucker for traditional architecture and white houses. Anything that reminds me of the idealized American home and I start tearing up. Really. I've probably watched "Father of the Bride" over 50 times just to get a glimpse of any details that I've missed during the previous 49 viewings. It was my first love before "Somethings Got to Give" and Nancy Meyers came along.

While these images aren't all from the same house they seem meant to be.

A beautiful, not too grand entrance, but with incredible details. Those pots had me at hello.

Then from the back you see how grand this house and guest house really is. But comfortable and family friendly too. Can't you just see the kids playing tag? Or in my case, playing Lacrosse in the backyard and breaking all those incredible windows. And what I wouldn't give to have the guest house as my office. Far enough away to work without being interrupted and no commute. Heaven.

Then a little cozy spot to take an early evening break with family and friends. Sigh.

All images via my pinterest.

"Father of the Bride" IS Nancy Meyers, isn't it? See, you're perfectly consistent.
