Birdcage Veils

It seems like every time I turn around, I am falling in love with another wedding style trend. And the birdcage veil is my latest passion. I just think that they add a sense of glamour, of unabashed romance to a wedding dress...

Melody, of Birdcage Veils in Dallas has totally devoted herself to these little pieces of heaven and she's stopping by today to share some thoughts!

The birdcage veil brings a new but...

Abby Loves…Red Bliss

Christine Traulich of RedBliss is, well...a genius. Her eye for design, her sense for great color and her insanely innovative work is beyond brilliant and as I am sure that she knows, Christine has been an incredible inspiration to me throughout my career. Even if her work is outside of your budget, check out her online gallery...the pictures alone are enough to make you jump for joy!

Bridesmaid Dresses by Saja

Lucky for us, Saja just launched a line of bridesmaids dresses and if you thought her wedding gowns were gorgeous, feast your eye on these little gems...

Fun, flirty, feminine...everything a bridesmaid dress should be. Plus, they come in these gorgeous colors. I am loving the perfect green on the bottom right...loving it. The prices for these range from $299 to $550 so a little on the pricey side, but let's be...

Wedding Dresses by Saja

If you aren't already familiar with Saja...you really need to be. Saja's work is absolutely gorgeous...chic, whispy and totally elegant.

I love that first dress so much (top left). It's the perfect balance of structure and femininity...plus, it seems like it would be just as perfect for a pretty, backyard wedding as it would for a chic, modern affair.

And the best part? They are REALLY affordable. Ranging from $550...

Bridesmaids Dresses by Jenny Yoo

This is the last set of Jenny Yoo dresses and I have to say...they just might be the best! These are a bit more formal than the previous dresses I've featured today, but every bit as gorgeous!

There are no words, really. The gorgeous colors, the oh-so-sophisticated silhouetes...perfection. Congratulations, Jenny, on an absolutely fabulous Fall collection. I only wish that I were getting married all over again!

Bridesmaids Dresses by Jenny Yoo

In my opinion, these next dresses by Jenny Yoo, are just about perfect. They are pretty, they are elegant, they are simple and yet totally sophisticated...

Choosing a bridesmaids dress that will suit every body type is, well...tough. For my own wedding, I had 10 (yes 10!!!) bridesmaids and each of them had a totally different body type. Looking back, I wish that I had chosen a Jenny Yoo creation, as she has such a...

Bridesmaids Dresses by Jenny Yoo

This next set of Jenny Yoo gowns, from her Fall line, is so feminine and delicate...perfect for a sweet but sophisticated affair...

What I really love about Jenny's work is that she designs gowns that look good on just about any figure, on any height and on any size. Check out her online real weddings gallery to see what I mean...she just...

Bridesmaids Dresses by Jenny Yoo

We are continuing on with "SMP's Fashion Week" and I have to say...I am in love with Jenny Yoo's Fall Fashions. I have actually been in love with Jenny's work for a long time now and to be honest, it just keeps getting better and better.

These dresses are a little bit bold, a little bit flirty...

How gorgeous are these? The deep aqua color, the sweet silhouettes...love, love, love them. I have so many more...

Abby Loves…Waterlily Pond

Waterlily Pond is one of those rare florists that approaches design with a truly architectural style. What I really love about Natasha's work is that she seems to put the same TLC into a boutonniere that she puts into a centerpiece, so that the entire look just makes sense.  If you haven't checked out her website lately, it's a must see...especially her featured wedding section!

Real Wedding by Hitched

You guys are going to looooove this story from the girls at Hitched!

Contrary to popular belief, we rarely encounter “bridezillas” at Hitched… in fact, our brides are usually the complete opposite. We love our brides and always feel so honored to be a part of their special day – but there are some brides who we REALLY get to know because they...

Wedding Dress Trends by Hitched, II

More from the girls at Hitched Salon!

* * *

OK, we’ll admit it. We’ve got a crush on Reva Mivasagar’s bridal collection. His line is new to us here at Hitched (though he’s already quite established in the bridal industry), and we’re falling fast and hard for his exquisitely detailed gowns. What strikes us most are his silk organza dresses, where delicate...

Wedding Dress Trends by Hitched

We get a lot of requests on SMP for fashion related posts...and to be honest, we don't write nearly enough about this topic! The dress that you choose on your wedding day is possibly the most exciting decision you'll ever make so it should be something that is a constant here on SMP.

To get the ball rolling, I've enlisted the help of the girls at Hitched Salon in DC...they own one of the most chic, jump-up-and-down gorgeous...

Abby Loves…Stephanie Cristalli

I really do. This image, in particular, is one that I would hang on any wall in my home...it's just that beautiful. Stephanie is all talent and if you are in need of a little photographic inspiration, her website is an absolute must. And, remember this gorgeous wedding that she captured? Total eye candy.

For even...

A few more magazine-worthy images from today's featured wedding...

all photographs by the lovely and talented Ingrid of Myrtle and Marjoram

Kiki let me know that her dress and veil were custom made for her in Hong Kong, as were those beautiful bridesmaid dresses. Although she designed her own cake (WOW), Beaux Gateaux executed it to perfection. And...

Real Wedding, III

We have so many more pictures from Kiki's wedding for you!

all of these beautiful images were shot by Ingrid at Myrtle and Marjoram

From the bride, Kiki...

The theme was "Happy Koogether". We're playing the words with my husband's last name "Koo" with "Happy Together". My husband and I designed everything for our wedding. We printed most of the things at home and cut them ourselves. So there was a...

Real Wedding, II

Here are more images from Kiki's OH-SO-GORGEOUS wedding...

I love the juxtaposition of textures that Kiki chose...the wooden chairs paired with her soft, elegant color palette, the architectural flower arrangements paired with the oh-so-soft peonies in Kiki's bouquet. Kind of a masculine base with a very feminine overlay. Love that.

So much more to...

Real Wedding

When Kiki, one of our readers, sent me pictures from her recent wedding...well, I swooned. It's just SO pretty. Every detail, from the soft color palette to the romantic peonies and gorgeous fashions, is so me. I could go on and on, but instead, I'll just show you the pictures!

I discovered, shortly after opening Kiki's email, that her photographs were captured by one of my favorite Little Black Book...

Abby Loves…Christian Oth

And I sincerely mean that. I love Christian Oth. In my opinion, his work is flawless...it's emotional, it's beautiful, it has a true sense of depth. I met Christian about a year ago when I was filming a segment for Get Married TV in his studio. Aside from being an incredibly talented photographer, one of the best in the world, he is also a really nice guy. If you haven't already, grab a cup of coffee and spend some time on...
