When I first saw today’s featured wedding, I knew that I would get it up on Style Me Pretty for all of you to fall in love with. What I didn’t know, was how intimate and completely focused on love, on friends and on family the affair actually was.

Every detail was thought of, every inch of this wedding was lovingly designed. And, there were a few surprises that even the bride...

On to the ceremony…it’s so lovely, so incredibly romantic. And Ashley has shared with us some of the details that made the ceremony not only beautiful, but unbelievably touching.

From Ashley…

For the ceremony, my mom walked me down the aisle, which is fitting since it has always been me and her.  We really wanted everyone to be involved...

I am super excited for today’s post! Not only do we have some truly gorgeous photos for you to feast your eyes upon, but in the process, we’re going to learn the difference between digital photography and film photography. Our friend Rob Culpepper, of A Bryan Photo in Birmingham Alabama, was kind enough to step in and write a lovely and super educational guide to photography style and how digital and...

Today, we are featuring a wedding that I have literally been DYING to post for a long time. April sent me a high resolution CD of the images and it’s taken me a little while to sift through and choose the photos that really reflected the wedding to perfection. Now that it’s finally up, it’s nice for me to take a little break and just gawk at what a beautiful event this was…

More to come!

Found via Oh Joy, I fell completely in love with this flower shot by the incredible Denise Grunstein. It could inspire an entire wedding style…a romantic, almost eclectic bohemian style complete with huge floor pillows for guests to lounge on, a cold sangria for guests to sip and a solo guitarist setting the mood. I love that one single...

I have been waiting and waiting to show you today’s real wedding. It’s spectacular. And that just might be an understatement. It’s honestly right off the pages of a magazine…a stunning bride, a location that almost looks fake, wedding details that will make your heart skip a beat and photographs that you just might want to print out and hang on your walls. It’s that beautiful.

The rehearsal dinner alone is enough to make me want to get married all over...

And the winners are (after MUCH anticipation)…

Manders, who said, “Oh My! Everything is beautiful, as always! I adore the “Sweet as Honey” ring bowl! The fiance is a beekeeper, how adorable would it be to display our rings in that sweet little bowl. If I don’t win I may have to order one anyway!”

AND

Sharon, who said, “Oh, everything they make is gorgeous! My favorite are the custom ring bowls, and I want to imprint the words, “Be happy...

Here is a last look at today’s wedding…as the sun goes down and the reception begins. Thank you so much to Michelle and to Lisa at Ooh Events for sharing this wedding with us. For me, it was a lesson in editing. Finding just the right pieces to create a sophisticated, Southern style without seeming at all contrived or over designed.

Lisa Thomas of Ooh Events carried the insignia from the invitations over to the custom matchbooks. Such a lovely touch. I also love the chic simplicity of the butter colored linens and the small, but beautifully designed centerpieces. There is a sense of order that...

Today we are featuring the prettiest wedding, designed by the ever talented Lisa Thomas of Ooh Events in Charleston. There is just something magical about Charleston…it’s so effortlessly beautiful. A relaxed but oh-so-chic style. I am kind of obsessed if you can’t tell by all of the Charleston weddings that I post on SMP!

I don’t have a ton of details from this wedding, other than the fabulous...

After setting the date, finding the church, finding a reception venue, dreaming about your gown … the next thought on your mind might be your wedding colors or color ‘palette’ as it’s lovingly referred to these days!  Tara Pollio of tara pollio floral-event design sent us this beautiful wedding with a color palette of orange, chartreuse and pewter. Tara said...

Today’s wedding is all about easy, breezy beautiful style (can you tell that I watched an America’s Next Top Model marathon this weekend)…complete with different little cabana seating areas, perfectly designed florals and that touch of Southern charm with it’s butter yellow, chocolate and green palette. Lovely.

Do you ever wake up on a Monday and try on ten, fifteen outfits…none of which seem quite right? Well, that was me today, only I was trying on weddings to feature! I couldn’t, for the life of me, decide which wedding to put up today, so I spent WAY too long sifting through one style after another…chic, ballroom affairs, quaint outdoor weddings, beautiful beachside fetes. One after another, after another. Until I saw this one.
