Let the Voting Begin!
Thank you to everyone who entered our Little Black Dress competition! I loved every minute of it and now am so excited about that perfect Little Black Dress…for a chic, smart wedding where fashion can take centerstage, it’s a no brainer!
Go ahead and cast your vote for your favorite board. This vote will be totally reader generated on the honor code, so I ask that you please be really honest in voting for only one board. The winner will receive a $300 gift certificate to the store of their choice! Voting will end this upcoming Thursday, November 13th and we’ll announce the winner on Friday!
I wanted to share with you this ADORABLE board that was crafted by Carrie Sellman, an incredible cake designer that we love here at SMP.

Inspired by that INSANELY gorgeous black and white cake that Carrie designed for Bride and Bloom magazine, this board is total perfection. Thanks so much, Carrie, for sending such an inspiring look! Check out Carrie’s site and blog for GOBS of inspiration!
Never thought yellow and black can be so great together. But it is. That is LOVE.
Mmmm, nothing (okay, very little) beats black and yellow. Stunning!
I think I am going to have to go with board II, I love that it is fun yet pretty.
Boards 8 and 9 are very similar and I like them both a lot...but I guess my favorite is board 8. The white and green with some sparkle against the black is so chic.
My favorite is Day II board III. The pink, black & yellow.
Little Black Dress Day 2, II --- one doesn't normally think of combining black and purple as their wedding color palette, but the colors look great together!
I like board # 10, on day 1. Probably because I love halloween!
I vote for LIttle Black Dress Day 2, V, the colors are bright and stunning. The cupcake looks simple and ready to eat. Elegant board.
Day 2, dress VII
I love board 9, because I have the dress and also, I love the theme color too!
My vote goes for board 2!!
My favorite dress is Little Black Dress, XI. I love the black dress and those ice cream cones are adorable!
Love VII!
Day 2 #2!
day 2, #2 as well!
Day 2, #2... Simply stunning! Trendy and classic at the same time.
day 1 board 10

I vote for Day 1, board 10
Day 1, Board 10!!!
chic LBD + yummy palette = my vote for day 2, board 2!
My favorite is the Little Black Dress entry Day 2, IX...but probably because this is pretty much the look for my wedding next June! That floral arrangement is so classic and just gorgeous!
I vote for board 10 on day 1 .... LOVES IT :)
Day II, Board V. Matches my personality, I love it!
I vote for board day 2, # 2 -- those little cookie things look delicious!
Day Two, Board 5! It's too cute and I love the colors!
They are lots of beautiful boards but I would definitely vote for Day 1 Board 1 - the blackberry set with the iris bouquet, grape cake, fabulous black dress and that YUMMY looking dessert. It is too marvelous!
i vote for board 6. i love everything about it. i never thought animal prints could work in a wedding context that wasn't completely tacky, but i love it!
I love board #10, sooo pretty!
Day 2 #2
Day 1 Board 10 ooo pretty
I vote for board 10 on day 1
day 2,,, #1. The look is so classic and clean with fun elements of flare with the wreath. No someone please tell me where the wedding dress is from!?
Loving Day 2, VIII
I think Little Black Dress Day 2, VIII is exactly what you said, glitzy and glamorous, it's got my vote!
Love board # 10 Day 1...pumpkins are so cute
I love Fiesta Chic, day 2 #10. It's not my style at all, but all the choice a fresh, vibrant, and incredibly cohesive.
I vote for the first board w/ the layered black dress! They were all fabulous, though!!!
day 1 board 10 is my favorite! wow ow owoww~!
Does it seem like all the votes for day 1 number 10 are coming from the same person?
day 1 board 10
Day 1, board 10 is my favorite.....very festive for this time of year.
Board #10 is mine, and no, I am not posting repeatedly...that would be super immature and would probably mean that I had nothing better to do with my time. lol! Thanks for all the people that love my board though!
I vote for Little Black Dress XI, from day 1!
Quick response! Sorry Ana. But yes that's a good thing, it's easy for the admin's to tell from the IP address if they are repeats anyway.
I like the sparkly one: Day 2, VIII
I vote for Day 2, #2
I vote for Day 1, Board 1. I think Janine did a great job!! Good luck 8-)
I vote for day 1 board 10. Thanks
I vote Little Black Dress VIII I love the wellies and it's very cohesive. Little Black Dress IV is a close second though.
Day 2, board 10 Fiesta Chic!
Day 1, Board 10!!!
I LOVE Day 2, Board III. It has sprinkles cupcakes!!
Love the black dress and purple combo of Board Two on Day Two!
I luurve both #8 and #9 on Day 2. I guess my vote has to go with Day 2, #9 though. So classy!

you're right up there nicki, it does seem like there are many many "alike" votes for board 10 on day 1. i like day 2 - 8 and 9, but i'd go for 8... that dress is fab!
I vote for Board V, Day 1!
My vote is for Day 2, board XII. But is mine! Does that count?
I vote for board V, Day 1!
day 1 board 10
I vote for day 1 board 10
Board VI... really chic color palette!
oops... I meant to say Day 2 board VI
I even entered a board but absolutely love Day 2, # 10! How fun!
I want to get married again so I can use the palette on Day 2, Board 2! That one gets my vote!
All of the entries were gorgeous, but day 2 #2 is still my favorite. I am in love with those invitations. Now if only I could afford them...
board 10 on day 1 is tha hottest
Little Black Dress Day 2, II, the purple with black board is my absolute fave!
I like the very first post from day 1. That layered dress is classic!
Day #2, Dress entry #8
I vote for Nov 6 Dress I. The tiered look is classy yet elegant. The complimentary purple is beautiful.
Day 2, XI very elegant and just the right amount of color
I love purple, so I was torn between a few boards. But I would have to say that the 2nd board on Day 2 is my favorite because of those shoes!
me too on day 2 number 2. the ring pillow is absolutely gorgeous, it's too bad that i can't just go out and buy it though! i found a similar purple pillow on theweddingoutlet.com (i'll just take off the bow), but does anyone know where i could find a sequined flower like the one in the picture??? i've been looking online and haven't been able to find anything...
thanks and goodluck to everyone!
