We are celebrating a lot here on SMP today. First, the launch of our Little Black Book Blog…filled with even more inspiration and gorgeous new work by our favorite Little Black Book members.
And second, we are celebrating Veterans Day and the work that our troops all over the world are doing for our country. Military inspired weddings almost always give me the wedding chills…there is just something about the formality of the uniform, the strength and beauty behind the ceremony. It’s a perfect love story of sorts. And this wedding, sent to me by Ingrid of Myrtle and Marjoram is just that…a perfect love story.

I have to say, the flowers from this wedding are really what take it to the next level…those peonies, I mean come on. They are STUNNING. It’s not terribly surprising considering that the amazingly talented Nicole Ha crafted them! We have more to come, so stay tuned!
I love Ingrid's pictures! Beautiful!
What a gorgeoue cake! Beautiful wedding all around.
as a future military bride myself, thank you, THANK YOU for featuring us on SMP! :)
gorgeous cake! utterly beautiful wedding!
I love that cake! It's so original -- gotta love pink! This wedding is very pretty and soft.
Does anyone know the designer of those bridesmaids dresses? I've been having a very difficult time finding bridesmaids dresses that I like, and I think the dresses pictured here are really pretty.
Hi Amanda...I was actually the bride, and the bridesmaid dresses were designed by Alvina Valenta. I designed the flower girl dresses, which can be custom ordered through Fantaisiekids.com.
Thank you for all your sweet comments!!! I'm getting teary eyed just reading them. Hope this inspires other brides to create the wedding of their dreams!!!
lovely, lovely, lovely. that soft pink is beyond gorgeous!
Thanks for the response! My wedding dress is actually an Alvina, so I am a huge fan and will definitely check out her site for these dresses. Your wedding was truly beautiful- can only hope for the same for mine!
Look at all the big beautiful bows on the cake. ::swoon::
Thank you for your nice comment. I visited your website, and your invitation designs are beautiful!!!
