I know that it’s a HUGE faux pas to beg for something. But I’ve decided to toss my pride and go ahead and get on my knees. It’s a survey. I know…you hate surveys. They are intrusive, unpleasant and flat out annoying. BUT, they will help us to tailor our blog to our readers so that you guys can come here every day and get exactly what you want. Plus, the fastest way to update our records is to go right to the source. So, if you love SMP and want to help a girl out...
Today we have featured the wedding of two filmmakers who made it their business to bring to life the journey of three senior citizens who serve as the official Troop Greeters of Maine’s Bangor International Airport. After hearing the incredible story about the film and the time, money and energy that was pored into its making, a group of Maine wedding professionals decided to gift this generous couple a wedding as their own...
The wedding industry is so unique. It’s filled to the brim with the most creative professionals you can imagine, those who are so good at what they do, it’s almost hard to believe. And yet it’s those same insanely talented people that happen to be the most giving, generous and kind people on the planet…as is the case with today’s featured affair. Some of Maine’s top luxury wedding vendors came...
We are all about Veteran’s Day here on SMP…celebrating the insanely gracious men and women that are out there right now, fighting for our country, fighting to keep this world a better place. And we’re putting our love on two film makers that have made it their mission to share the story of three senior citizens who, over the course of three years, have greeted over 800,000 troops returning from Iraq and Afghanistan. To thank these filmmakers for telling the world such...
For those of you that are just joining us…we are featuring the COOLEST wedding ever. A group of luxury vendors got together to gift two amazing filmmakers with a complete wedding…from the rehearsal dinner to the farewell shower and we’re debuting here today. The film that is garnering so much acclaim (and that has left me a big ball of mush) follows three senior citizens who have made it their mission to ensure every soldier a proper homecoming welcome. Their incredible...
We are celebrating Veteran’s Day on SMP today…with a wedding story that is so incredibly unique, so incredibly touching. The filmmakers behind the film The Way We Get By, which follows three senior citizens who greet troops on their way home, were gifted an entire wedding by some of our favorite wedding vendors. Starting with the rehearsal dinner, these super talented vendors held nothing back…from incredible...
Today is hugely special. It’s Veteran’s Day…a day that we should all feel so incredibly grateful to celebrate. Because, if it weren’t for those amazing men and women that are out there fighting for our country, well, let’s just say life wouldn’t be quite as sweet for all of us. And to help do our teeny tiny part in such a grand cause, I thought that we would share one of the most incredible stories that I have heard to date. Before I go into details though...
I mentioned last week that we would be guest blogging over on Martha Stewart’s The Bride’s Guide…well, our first feature went live yesterday and it was a beauty! We will be sharing the entire wedding with you next week that the fabulous Carrie Patterson photographed, including a...
Thank you so very much to the always inspiring Jose Villa for sending us today’s featured affair. We feel hugely giddy to have been chosen to debut this gorgeous wedding and only hope that we did the perfect photos justice. We have featured quite a few Jose Villa photographs on Style Me Pretty and now have a place within our gallery...
The last time we featured one of Jose’s little pieces of heaven, someone left a funny comment about me kissing some serious Jose booty. Well, Jose just happens to send me THE best weddings so the kissing is well deserved…and as long as he continues to be one of the most brilliant photographers around, the kissing will definitely keep on keepin’! Jose Villa’s...

Whenever I see the name *Jose Villa* in my inbox, my heart does a little pitter patter. He could be the best photographer I know. He also happens to be the luckiest. Scoring wedding after wedding that has THE coolest style, the greatest details. And he always manages to capture them in a way that is as understated and timeless as it is simply gorgeous. And this wedding…well, it’s the perfect example of just how good he is.
Today’s featured affair marries two of my very favorite people… the ridiculously talented Jose Villa and my dear friend Oscar. Oscar de la Renta that is. Please feast your eyes on this insanely stunning bride who was born to wear something this gorgeous and her lovely, lovely wedding that...
Sometimes I see really pretty weddings and although they are easy on the eyes, they are hard to fall in love with. It’s the JOY behind the images that really gets me. The pure and total joy that the bride and groom exude in each and every picture. Whether the wedding is high style and full glam, or vintage and a bit rustic…it will never be really beautiful unless you can truly feel the emotions. Which is exactly why I heart this wedding so very much.
From the adorable...
We have a completely jam packed day of gorgeousness on SMP. The Jose Villa wedding that is coming up in a bit is almost too much pretty to bear…definitely one of his best and with a style that is definitely one of his most swoon worthy. But before we get to that, I wanted to share this gorgeous little wedding that one of our readers sent us. The bride and groom got ready at my second favorite hotel space for weddings...
