I love featuring weddings like this one. Aside from being photographed by one of my all-time favorite artists, Max Wanger AND being coordinated by one of my all time favorite designers, Beth Helmstetter….this wedding was a total TLC affair. The bride pored herself into the details, into ensuring that their day refelected their own unique personalities, their own unique styles. And the result was total perfection. Oh and did I mention that the bride told me it was a “dream come true” to be featured on Style Me Pretty. Her words, not mine…and serious music to my ears.

From the beautiful bride…
Jeff and I met a few years ago when we both happened to be in Taiwan and it was pretty much a done deal. Jeff has this playful nature that always makes me laugh. We are both design-conscious and wanted our wedding to reflect our style – something chic, nothing too traditional, and definitely a bit of whimsy. We enlisted Beth Helmstetter as our Event Planner. From her sense of style to her attention to detail, I knew we were in good hands. We were also lucky enough to snatch up Max Wanger who captured the day perfectly!
We have so many amazing details on the way!

Hi Elaine, Your pictures are STUNNING! I ordered the LArissa dress for my wedding next year and love the idea of adding more flowers to the bottom of the dress, do you have a pic you could send me? I was also wondering did you have bridesmaids and if so what colour dresses did you go for? Thanks S

Hi Sharon- the front/back design was printed on cardstock, then hand-cut and assembled with wooden ice cream spoons and ribbon.
Hi there - I'm in total lust with the bracelet and would love to wear one the same on my wedding day.. problem is that I live in Australia.. would you please let me know where you got yours so I can hopefully get one sent over before Feb! :)
