Since I started Style Me Pretty, I have written just over 3,400 posts. Over 600,000 words all about weddings. But I’m lucky. I work with vendors that blow me away, that are continually surprising and delighting me with their innovation and style. I work with brides that put their heart and soul into designing a day that reflects their own personality and their own unique voice. And although I KNOW more than anything, that a wedding is beautiful because of the love between the couple, I also have a passion for wedding style and all of the silly/personal/fun/gorgeous details that go into the translation of that couple’s style. So it’s been pretty easy.

Anyway. Although I am really excited to write well over 600,000 more words all about weddings, well…we think that it might be time for a few fresh faces to join me on Style Me Pretty. So before we begin another week of gorgeousness, I thought I would let all of you bloggers out there know that if you are interested in writing for Style Me Pretty, we’d love to hear from you. Specifically, we are looking for local wedding or lifestyle bloggers (big and small, with readers and without) who not only have a love of this industry, but also have a really laid back, chic writing style. If you are well versed in a specific geographical area or wedding style…even better. Oh, and although a knowledge of hyperboles is appreciated, it isn’t required (that’s a joke). So, if you think you might fit the bill, make sure to get in touch. Make sure to provide a link to your blog if you have one!
Elaine will be guest blogging a bit for me this week, as I spend a few days fine tuning our plans for 2010. Elaine is our fabulous intern-turn-SMP-guru and will definitely give you girls some serious inspiration for your big day.

What a gorgeous pic! Thanks for all of your wonderful posts Abby. Can't wait to see what 2010 has in store....
Hi I am from Ontario, Canada and own a bridal store, we are also wedding coordinators. I would be very interested in added our voice to your site with our blog www.adayofelegance.ca
Thank you for your consideration.
just sent you an emai:)
I would certainly be interested in adding a fresh voice to your blog! I'm an invitation designer in Florida and love immersing myself into the world of wedding blogs, including mine. :) I'm a firm believer in the laid back feel of your blog and so many others and would love to be a part of it.

Abby, I would love to learn more about this opportunity
to contribute my writing and my love of wedding
celebrations in Las Vegas & beyond!
I love to write weddings or any moment in life worth celebrating with LOVE, LIFE & STYLE!
Hope your Christmas was wonderful?
Warmly,
Tracey Kumer-Moore
About to email you!
Best, Beka
Just sent in an email! I'd love to be part of SMP.
I would L-O-V-E to do this! I photograph and see so many weddings and there are so many great ideas out there. I am Canadian and seriously laid back :)
That last line, "Give you girls some inspiration for your day.." That really struck a chord for me. I have been looking at amazing winter weddings lately but it seems that they are all such high budget weddings that the only person getting inspired is the event coordinator with the 75,000 dollar budget. What about the girls without the event designers? I hope you find someone who is gonna feed the little fish out here.
You have one huge fan over here in London ladies and I'd be more than happy to contribute. I'm a London based wedding planner and am obsessed with ribbon, brooches, accessories, umbrellas and vases. My blog is above and my website is www.flutterflyevents.com (I didn't know which email address to use so I hope you see this post!). Erika
I don't envy you the task of narrowing down the guest bloggers! Can't wait to see who will be the new faces will be at SMP.
I recently read your blog and saw that you are looking for "guest" writers. I recently started my blog last Fall with a focus on....really anything. I am engaged, a parent, a runner, a teacher---so writing (with some sarcasm) has been a great outlet for me. I am getting married this March at a winery in Virginia--(this is my 2nd wedding) and have gone from being the anti bride (wanting to be non traditional) to finally coming to grips with being "the bride."
So--I would love the chance to do some writing.... let me know!
I'm just emailing you now - I'd love to write for Style Me Pretty!
KustomKissers.com features personalized lip balm which make special and practical wedding favors. Brides tell me what they want on their unique lip balm such as an engagement photo or text, then I do the designing and assembling. Blogging has been a part of my business for about 4 months, and I must admit that it is a powerful outlet for all aspects of my life - personal, creative, happy moments, and lip balm, of course. An opportunity to write a post for you would be an honor.
Although somewhat of a newbie to the wedding blog world, I'm loving every second of it. I'd love to be considered for some guest bloggery. (the word seemed appropriate at the moment)
Let's face it, shameless flattery aside, Style Me Pretty is the mecca of wedding style. Saying it would be an honor to write for you is like saying it would be exciting to be invited for dinner by the Jolie-Pitts. Um, heck ya, of course it would!
Hoping to hear from you!
I am new to the wedding blogging world but your site has been nothing but inspiration!! Planning my wedding while raising four children is no easy task..Seriously, I could write on that alone for hours! Two teenagers, a tween and an 8 year old who thinks shes a diva..UGH!! Did I mention they all play sports? Yep! Football, Cheerleading, Softball, Track, Gymnastics and Baseball (I'm the team mom for that)
If I make it to my big day without loosing my mind and my hair it will be nothing short of a miracle!
As an extra perk (eh, not really) I am the owner, creator and designer for printablebride.com. I do custom designs for the bride on a budget..
I have fallen in love with he world of blogging and I would love to be a part of the QUEEN of all wedding sites!!

I'm here for helpful tips & tricks to getting your skin perfect for your big day!
I have to say, I am a huge fan of SMP. Although I am currently a bride-to-be, I read your blog long before planning my own walk down the aisle. Some might say that I am a wedding fanatic (which is sort of true); however, I see myself more as a lover of special moments. I think that every event, whether it is a wedding reception, bridal shower, or birthday party for your mother-in-law, should be special and reflect your own unique style. It would be an honor and privilege to contribute to SMP. As a modern bride and young professional, I think I could bring a new voice to SMP. I, like so many other women, look forward to connecting with others across the country that just love looking at beautiful things. I know this site is the bright spot of my day and my muse. It would be incredible if I could pass that feeling on to your readers through contributing blog posts. Thank you for your consideration and I hope to hear from you... Without exaggeration, I can say that hearing from you would be a dream come true.
Best wishes for a very pretty new year!
Carli
Hey Abby!
Thank you so much for being a fabulous blogger. I <3 SMP for oh so many reasons. I just sent you an email about becoming a fresh new voice. I am not vendor or planner related, I am a holistic health counselor that specializes in working with brides and bridal parties. Blogging for SMP would bring me butterflies!!
Be well,
Terra
ha ha - what a cute picture! I had forgotten about that one - glad you're getting such great mileage out of our shoot together! :)
I would love to write as a guest blogger if you are still looking for some. I am currently planning my October wedding and started up a blog about 9 months ago to chronicle my journey. I have gotten so many ideas for my wedding from SMP and would be honored if I could contribute and give back in any way. Thanks!
