We are all about elegant affairs today on SMP. Classic, traditional styles with a whisper of chic sophistication. The kind of wedding where guests fall in love all over again, where brides look perfect in their white dresses, where flowers are lush and gorgeous and the whole day just seems to sparkle.
This wedding, shot by the wonderfully talented Jenny Smith of Alders Photography, took place this past May at the Happy Trails Catering Venue in Pasadena, California…

This was an intimate, hands-on celebration with the entire family helping to make the day beautiful. The bride’s mom helped bake the cupcakes, the bride’s dad hosted a spirits and cigar bar (to come) and a friend of the family did all of the flower arrangements.

So much more to come from the fabulous Alders Photography!
Love the shoes! Such pretty colors.
I agree on the shoes and am looking for something similar. Where are they from?
I was wondering where you found these great cupcakes?
I LOVE the veil! and I'm not even a fan of veils, but it is so beautifully detailed.
I love, love, love the green and white cupcake cups! Where can I find them?!?
Would love to see more photos of the centerpieces. So pretty!
hey all! the bride's mom made all the cupcakes herself, even designing the edible flowers and pearls on top just for the occasion! pretty awesome, huh? working on the shoe info for ya!
Looove the cupcakes! You've got to post more info about those :-)
Wow, her mother did the cupcakes? Awesome!
I can't wait for more...I love classic, elegant weddings. I am a huge fan of this one so far.

I am completely smitten with the bouquet. Does anyone know what kind of flowers were used in it?
For the person who asked above - the bouquet looks like white freesias to me. Not only are they pretty but their fragrance is amazing.
Thank you so much Bec!
I love those shoes as well! I wish I knew where they were from.
Thank you all for such lovely comments. My shoes are Ellen Tracy. You are correct my bouquet was white freesias. My veil and dress I got at IBEX in downtown Los Angeles. And, yes my mother made my cupcakes and cake.
