I looooove these little notebooks that Every Jot and Tittle is making! They are a hodge podge of papers, bound together with a tiny brad. How cute would these be as a gift to bridesmaids so that they can make notes of things going on, of to-do’s for the wedding, of fun little tidbits along the way…

We are totally in the spirit of giving today, so SMP is giving away 8 of these to one lucky reader! Instructions are a little different than the last posts…just leave a comment as to what your favorite SMP post is, with a link to that post, and we’ll choose a reader at random! Fun way to see what you guys are loving!
Oh and guess what…we have one more giveaway coming today!
I aboslutely love the post on French flowers, it's so stunning and inspirational!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/09/30/parisian-wedding-bouquets/
One of my favorite posts featured the divine work of Ceci Newyork.
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/09/03/wedding-invitations-by-ceci-ny/
I pretty much loved every detail of the featured wedding below. I found the rustic charm very inspirational to me in planning my own wedding.
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/06/18/real-wedding-by-duet-weddings/
My favorite (well I have two)
is the wedding of Heather and Kevin
(link: http://www.stylemepretty.com/?s=heather+and+kevin&submit-2=go)
/>
and all the Elysium Productions videos:
(link:http://www.stylemepretty.com/?s=elysium)
I love going to their site and would never have found it if it wasn't for SMP :)
My favorite post goes back a little bit in the archives, and it is my favorite because it is such a fun, personal, and well-done backyard wedding with tons of personality! It was one of the first weddings I saw right after I got engaged myself back in May and it inspired the direction I am taking in my own wedding style: http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/05/28/real-wedding-by-red-ribbon-studio/
Of all the post I have gawked over on SMP, the Charleston Bride wedding has topped my list. My wedding colors are also black, white and lime green, with the maids all wearing a black dress of their choice. Seeing this color scheme executed so well has given me ever more inspiration for my own wedding!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/10/07/a-charleston-bride/
I love all the DIY posts! To me a wedding with just the right DIY touches can outcharm any huge budget wedding. The personal touches are what make you really remember an event and the people involved. There can never be enough DO IT YOURSELF!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/category/real-weddings/diy/
I always look forward to the real weddings features the most, and by the comments here I can see that I'm not alone in that! My favorite wedding to date has to be the one of Jelsen and Bahareh: http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/07/29/a-real-wedding-7/ . Their taste is kirky but impeccable and has really inspired me to try to do something very personalized with my own wedding.
I love every country-rustic inch of this wedding. I have used this very post to build my wedding off of. I love it and search it repeatedly!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/03/10/a-real-wedding-ii-2/
I actually have screenshots of this dessert bar in a wedding workbook I made for myself in Microsoft Publisher. That's the only reason I still have the web address. ;) Love the dessert bar idea.
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/09/15/dessert-bar-by-oh-how-charming/
I'm a bit of a new reader, but my favorite post so far has been the DIY contest with the link to instructions for the candy bar favors: http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/09/29/do-it-youeself-contest/
I loved it because it gave me a great idea, and it seems so easy - I don't consider myself very crafty, but I think I can do this one! Of course, I haven't tried yet...
I love this real wedding: http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/07/31/an-inspired-wedding-ii/ the style is close to what I'm planning for my own and I really love all the personal touches.
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/10/01/wedding-table-setting-iv/
My favorite is the Wedding Table Setting IV! I love the black and white contrast throughout!
I am a paper product junkie and am MAD about these notebooks! :)
I agree with Leala that the Real Wedding you featured on 03.10.08 is my favorite SMP wedding evvvvver. This wedding continues to inspire our backyard wedding again and again, and I love every detail.
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/03/10/a-real-wedding-3/
Thanks for all of the great giveaways, SMP! :)
I love the Homemade Photo Opp site. My friend recently did it at her son's first birthday party and kids loved it. It's definitely more reasonable than renting a photo booth.
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/09/08/a-real-wedding-kelly-and-colin-iv/
I absolutely adore the vintage chic wedding by Hatch. I love all the fun and personal touches like the Beatles album pins and checker shoes. The whole wedding was elegant, personal, and fun.... exactly what a wedding should be. I love the simplicity of the baby's breath as well.
http://www.crgevents.com/crgevents/default.aspx
Thanks !
I LOVE the cotton bird designs: http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/06/25/cake-toppers-by-cotton-bird-designs/ . Amont many other favorite posts of course :).
I absolutely love all the do-it-yourself post. They give me so many ideas!
My favorite is Real Wedding in Bali: Vicki and Phong.
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/10/03/real-wedding-vicki-and-phong/
I'm getting married in Hawaii (though I wish it could be Bali!) and found this post to be very inspirational.
My favorite SMP posts are always the "real weddings". I have looked through all of them so many times. It is easy to talk about great wedding ideas, or crafts...but getting to see it pulled together in real life helps so much more. The wedding posts of Kiki's wedding has been a real inspiration. Like her I am trying to do as much DIY projects as I can and I loved hearing about what she did, how she did it, and then seeing exactly how it came out!!! Such a big help!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/09/22/real-wedding-v/
I love book # 1.
I love all your post, but any post with photos from jose villa. He is so good!
I love your real wedding features, and this was my absolute favorite, which inspired my wedding colors and save the date... http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/05/06/real-wedding-6/
I heart them all, especially the fabulous inspiration boards, the one that most represents what I am going for with my wedding is from Feb. 4th.
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/02/04/reader-inspiration-board-3/
How can I pick just one??? I just went through all of my "starred" entries in my google reader, and this one (actually 2) popped out at me again. How beautiful and inspiring are Laura Hooper's scripts?? And I love the advice about how to actually go about getting a calligrapher:
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/05/14/wedding-calligraphy-by-laura-hooper/
/> and
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/05/14/wedding-calligraphy-by-laura-hooper-ii/
p.s . those notebooks are so adorable!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/09/18/reader-inspiration-board-8/
Here's my fav. I love the colors. Although my wedding will be bright green and purple... this helps me to know what it can be like!!!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/05/28/real-wedding-by-yvette-roman-ii/ has been my favorite so far.
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2007/06/15/dear-abby-3/
/> My favorite because I sent it to my mother and she loved it, and is going to be wearing a similarly stylish outfit for my wedding!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/09/25/feather-inspired-hair-pieces/
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE these feathered hair pieces... They are so beautiful! I think I'm to replace my veil with one for our reception!
I love the post on dessert tables. It was so fun and very inspirational.
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/09/15/dessert-tables-by-amy-atlas/
My favorite is this post from Nole's real wedding:
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/07/09/real-wedding-iii-3/
I'm planning my own wedding right now and have found so much inspiration from hers!
I have so many of your posts starred as favorites in my Google reader and it's so hard to choose just one! I think my most recent favorite is this on one birdcage veils: http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/09/25/birdcage-veils/
I am in love with the look and am hoping to find the right one for my wedding.
This wedding gave me hope for planning both an affordable and beautiful wedding:
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/03/24/real-wedding-iii/
I am loving this post
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/10/03/real-wedding-by-jose-villa/
/> because the wedding was gorgeous and I Really want that dress!
Stationery posts are my favorite, and I especially loved the post on invitations by Chewing the Cud:
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/04/07/wedding-invitations-by-chewing-the-cud-2/
One of my favorite posts of late is this table setting one. It's so simple and elegant. I'm definitely using the lace candle votive idea for my own wedding!
Oops, here's the link!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/10/01/wedding-table-settings-vii-2/
I love stationary posts! These little books are too cute! :)
This one is quite old: http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/05/14/wedding-calligraphy-by-laura-hooper/
I love Laura Hooper's calligraphy, but her maps are especially charming.
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/03/10/a-real-wedding-ii-2/
I love the daisies in the Mason jars! I've been making those to pretty up my apartment since it appeared in SMP
I love the idea of a photo backdrop as seen here: http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/09/08/a-real-wedding-kelly-and-colin-iv/ and plan to TOTALLY CO-OPT it for all formal parties to come.
I just started following your blog about a month ago and I really loved the Charleston Real Wedding. They incorporated such a rich array of textures. So beautiful!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/10/07/a-charleston-bride-ii/
My absolute favorite post is titled "Oh So Charming." I love the color palette and plan on using it in my wedding!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/05/27/real-wedding-by-oh-how-charming-2/
I love all of the ceci New york posts. Their invitation packages are simply amazing!
This one was beautiful:
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/09/16/wedding-invitation-ideas-by-ceci-new-york/
And everything from this date:
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/09/03/wedding-invitations-by-ceci-ny/
This wedding below had such style and personality, I adored the shot of the bride and grooms shoes.
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/07/29/a-real-wedding-7/
Well, I only started reading this blog a month ago. So my favorite post was this one about a dessert bar. Definitely a great inspiration for what I want my wedding cake/or not cake to be like.
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/09/15/dessert-bar-by-oh-how-charming/
Every time I pick a favorite, you go and post again the next day! I started reading your blog about a month ago and what got me hooked was this
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/09/17/real-wedding-alana-and-alex/
The colors of that wedding are absolutely gorgeous! I've spent many hours on this site since!
This: http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/07/09/real-wedding-iii-3/ is my favorite post. This incredible post proved to me that even with a small budget, I too can have a beautiful wedding. This wedding was magical!
My favorite post is this one: http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/07/09/real-wedding-11/
Everything about it was so beautiful.
My favorite post is http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/03/25/reader-inspiration-boards-11/
It was hard to choose... I've gotten so many good ideas from SMP!!
I love this real wedding post. http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/07/29/a-real-wedding-7/
I would die for that dress and her shoes. This couple looks like fun and someone I would want to be friends with.
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/07/31/an-inspired-wedding-iii/
I love this wedding!! It's in everything I show my vendors :)
I love this recent post from a Jose Villa wedding
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/10/03/real-wedding-by-jose-villa/
/> Jose's work is fantastic and the romantic and outdoorsy feel of this wedding is great.
I have two favorite posts, both real wedding. First Danielle's beautiful day - loved the barn and beautiful, understated decor (http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/03/10/a-real-wedding-iii-2/ ). Second, Heather and Kevin's backyard wedding was so much fun and personal (http://www.stylemepretty.com/?s=heather+and+kevin&submit-2=go ).
I love everything about this post:
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/06/06/real-wedding-by-alison-events/
/> That wedding has the same feel of what I'm trying to achieve in my own wedding. It just looks so rustic and cozy.
I'm always obsessed with everything on the website, but I love the recent Charleston bride post because I adore everything green!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/10/07/a-charleston-bride-iii/
my favorite -> June 12th, '08, Real Wedding by 5ive15ifteen, II
those black and white photos... talk about inspiration!
I love the real wedding features and especially like the ones that are listed under "casual elegance" because that is what we envision for our own wedding! One of my favorites is the Karrie and Brian wedding.
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/08/15/real-wedding-karrie-brian/
I loved the post on "An Inspired Wedding" on July 31, 2008. It was great to see how the bride's vision for her wedding was translated to reality, and I loved the soft, romantic details from the real day!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/07/31/an-inspired-wedding/
I loved it when Mhyra's wedding was featured here. I love the Filipiniana details!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/05/09/real-wedding-8/
This wedding caused my best friend and I to invest in buying a chandelier to share at our weddings! Absolutely beautiful.
Oops, sorry- I put the website in the wrong place!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/02/13/elizabeth-messinas-wedding-ii/
This one is the best, ever:
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/08/13/do-it-yourself-inspired-wedding/
Love Nole and Andrew's wedding. Her dress is stunning and her paper products are fantastics... and on a budget! Totally inspirational.
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/07/09/real-wedding-11/
I chose the link below, because this video clip just really spoke to me. It made me rethink what wedding cinemetography can be. Before, I thought it was video of the bride set to cheesy music and this one made me see that it can be more, it can capture more and that a good videographer can and should truly be able to capture the beauty and elegance of your wedding day.
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/02/19/wedding-cinematography/
Darling notebooks!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/07/09/real-wedding-iii-3/
Nole's wedding was the first wedding I have seen that truly inspired me. I am having a Cape Cod Rustic Chic wedding and Nole's wedding gave a sense of reality to my vision. Thank you!
I loved the post on Dan and Dana’s wedding which was under $7,000. It gives us hope that not all weddings have to be super expensive to be beautiful!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/05/01/real-wedding-on-a-budget/
This girl's inspiration board highlighted the exact feeling I want for my wedding... I look at it all the time and use it as a reference point for my planning!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/07/31/an-inspired-wedding/
This is my favorite post:
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/08/05/real-wedding-by-chewing-the-cud-4/
It was added here just a week before I got engaged and I remember how it inspired me so-- to be creative, think outside of the box, and stick to your individuality and remember that the day is two very, very special people.
I really loved this post: Feather Inspired Hair Pieces
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/09/25/feather-inspired-hair-pieces/
I've never been a fan of the bridal tiara, and this has opened me up to a world of new & glamorous possibilities!
budget friendly and beautiful
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/09/29/real-wedding-beth-and-mike/
My favorite posts were the most recent series on Wedding Table Settings, however, out of those posts - I loved Wedding Table Settings VII. The style embodied everything I want my wedding to be - classic but rustic with a clean, natural simplicity.
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/10/01/wedding-table-settings-vii-2/
My absolute favorite posts are always your Real Weddings. There's one in particular that I always go back and check out. I love the clean lines and contemporary feel of this wedding, as the honeycomb graphic the bride used to tie it all together.
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/05/27/real-wedding-by-oh-how-charming/
I actually just used the Christian Louboutin shoes this bride wore in my own Inspiration Board!!
http://idoyoudowedo.com/?p=34
my fave post was Wedding Dresses by Ann and Nicole (Dec'07) I"m on a super super tight budget for my wedding, and spending 2000$ on a dress is just impossible for me. These dresses are gorgeous and budget-savvy!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2007/12/12/wedding-dresses-by-ann-and-nicole/
My favorite post was the one about the vintage wedding invitations from ephemera press.
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/10/02/wedding-invitations/
I love your real weddings, especially the budget beautiful weddings and the DIY weddings. I keep going gack to Kelly and Colin's wedding for inspiration. I love the mix of colors and ecclectic feel. SO beautiful!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/09/08/a-real-wedding-kelly-and-colin/
I love the color palette posts! My colors are navy and green, so this really stood out:
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/08/04/color-palettes-3/
When I saw Elizabeth's wedding photos I fell in love!! We will be using these colors for our wedding in May and I hope to capture this vintage feeling as well. So many small beautiful touches that add up to a really intimate and gorgeous wedding!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/02/13/elizabeth-messinas-wedding/
I love this table setting post because I'm getting married in a barn that looks almost exactly like this venue. If I could get my venue to look half as good as this picture, I'd be in heaven.
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/10/01/wedding-table-settings-vii/
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/07/07/color-palette-contest-day-5-5/
/> this post inspired me to use yellow at my wedding!
I feel in love with this DIY photobooth, especially the bold IKEA fabric--I even drove there last weekend (it's 2 hours from where I live) but sadly they were sold out of the fabric! Anyway the "real weddings" you do are so fun. Thanks!!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/09/08/a-real-wedding-kelly-and-colin-iv/
I absolutely love this post because of the clever way that Erich and Debra managed to send out a classy, sophisticated wedding invitation that still incorporated their fun-loving personalities. This gave me so many great ideas for my wedding!!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/10/02/wedding-invitations/
I am in love with this Real Wedding - so chic!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/07/31/an-inspired-wedding/

http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/02/22/reader-inspiration-board-5/
This board changed my wedding's style!
My favorite SMP post(s) are the ones about Beth and Mike's wedding.
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/09/29/real-wedding-beth-and-mike-ii/
They really brought my ideal wedding to life. I live really close to Greensboro, so it was especially inspiring to see a local wedding. More than anything I love their budget...
The flowers are perfect, the varied single layered cakes, the jcrew dress, it all simple yet tasteful.
Very easy choice!!! Seeing the colors in this wedding (http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/05/29/real-wedding-by-stephanie-cristalli/ ) completely made me swoon.
This wedding (http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/06/12/real-wedding-by-5ive15ifteen/ ) is a very close runner up.
I love your site, keep all the lovely photos and inspiration coming. Could you possibly showcase more brides with short engagements? As the standard engagement period gets longer and longer, most people think my fiance and I are nuts for having a 4 month engagement! We know it's very doable. Any encouragement would be a big help! Thanks!
I love your Real Weddings section and the other day I was browsing and came across your "Real Wedding by Jose Villa". As I was looking through, I loved everything from the flowers, vases and candles to her hair and dress... even the location was exactly what I want for my own wedding. And THEN I saw their adorable puppy who looks just like my very own who I want so badly to be able to attend our wedding!!!! I couldn't believe it - that post has now become my very own inspiration board.
I just adore the whole feel of the wedding shot by Jose Villa as well. I love the natural inspired elements and relaxed but elegant feel.
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/10/03/real-wedding-by-jose-villa/
I'm also really looking forward to the upcoming DIY series!
I love love love all your real wedding posts but this one in particular stands out. Always shout with glee when you post them!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/05/27/real-wedding-by-oh-how-charming-2/
It is from Oh How Charming and I just love how the entire event looks soo cohesive yet the design theme not over done.
I'm addicted to real weddings and this by far is my FAVORITE post:
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/10/03/real-wedding-by-jose-villa/
Gorgeous , natural, and beautifully subtle.
Pick a favorite, are you kidding me?!? They are all my favorite! I would have to list 15 posts to total my fav's but one that stands out is this one
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/05/27/real-wedding-by-oh-how-charming-2/
I love seeing all of the cool DIY projects - http://www.stylemepretty.com/category/wedding-resources/diy-projects/ but especially the one on making your own invitations - http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/06/05/printing-your-own-wedding-invitations/ . They're so inspirational and encourages me to do more DIY for my wedding.
I love this real wedding http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/07/22/real-wedding-by-amy-nichols/ .
It shows how fun, unique, and beautiful a destination wedding can be. Everyone looked so happy to share in the couple’s special day. The pictures just make you want to be there and celebrate with the happy couple.
My favorite post was the one on parisian floral trends, the flowers are just so beautiful and so inspiring!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/09/30/parisian-floral-trends-ii/
I loved the board game inspired wedding you featured not too long ago. Recreating classic board game covers was such a cute and creative idea - thanks for sharing!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/08/12/real-wedding-13/
All of the posts from July 9th from the Real Wedding of Nole. http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/07/09/real-wedding-11/
/> The lilacs and the cakes get me every single time and I just love that she did it all on a budget, including amazing photography. This one was definitely highly inspirational!
My favorite post is the Inspired wedding that is vintage yet simple and clean. I love that the family was able to take part in the event by crocheting flowers and table linens that made up the beautiful centerpieces. So many elements from this wedding have inspired me to incorporate more of my family traditions into our day.
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/07/31/an-inspired-wedding-iii/
I just started reading recently (what a wonderful find!) but my favorite post that I've read is this one: http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/10/03/real-wedding-by-jose-villa/
/> I just absolutely love that wedding--the colors and mood and everything are so beautiful! The tree decorations are so great.
I love all of the real weddings you share, this was one of my absolute favorites!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/05/13/real-wedding-9/
Love these! So casual and yet wildly hip!
I love all of the entries on the blog... but I think I've been most interested by the invitation/stationery posts since I'm making our own invitations! It's great to come here for general inspiration, and also specifically for invitation design. It's hard to pick a favorite post, but I do really love this Peculiar Pair Press post. I'm just drawn to so many elements of these invitations... the fonts, incorporation of theme, colors...
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/08/25/wedding-invitations-by-peculiar-pair-press-invitation-personality/
I LOVE this wedding! The details are amazing and it seems like such a warm and personal event.
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/06/26/real-wedding-by-alison-events-2/
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/07/30/wedding-dress-trends-by-anna-be-2/

http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/08/15/real-wedding-karrie-brian/
I completely feel in love with this wedding, from the silhouette details to the green heels... hook, line, and sinker.
The Chewing the Cud wedding was amazing--I love the books!
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/08/05/real-wedding-by-chewing-the-cud-4/
The reason that this is one of my favorite posts is selfish. I'm using the same colors, so it was so fun to see them in action:
http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/10/07/a-charleston-bride-iii/
Please, send it to your #1 Brazilian reader!!! :)
I loved it!
Oh, yeah, and my favorite post is http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/09/29/do-it-youeself-contest/ . I even printed out the labels to use it!
Tks
OMG - these are fabulous. A must have. There are so many SMP posts I love. But I have to say it is http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/08/04/color-palettes-3/ Why? Becuase it totally inspired by indigo, sage green and ivory theme!!!
All are wonderful posts but I really enjoyed alana and alex's wedding colors and happiness.
All the posts are wonderful but I really enjoyed Alana and Alex's wedding colors and how creative her wedding was.http://www.stylemepretty.com/2008/09/17/real-wedding-alana-and-alex/
