Yep, you read that right. We are bursting at the seams to announce a wedding giveaway that two insanely generous groups of New England vendors have put together for two (yep, you read that right also…TWO) very deserving couples who are planning a 2011 wedding. This is a BIG deal people and we hope that you’ll help us spread the word!

gorgeous arrangement from last year’s wedding giveaway by Jessica’s Country Flowers
The first talented group includes the fabulous Jessica’s Country Flowers, our dear friends Justin & Mary Marantz, the incredible team at Details Wedding & Party Planning and the wonderfully talented Christine at Stonington Paperie, the sweet peeps at Lovely Cake and the always great Beth at The White Dress by the Shore.
The second group of vendors participating in the second wedding will be Jessica’s Country Flowers, the super talented Steve Depino Photography, the awesome event staff at Sixpence For Your Shoe, perfect invitations by Paper Olive, a cake to die for by Toria Dolce Fine Desserts and THE gown by The Plumed Serpent.

So here’s what the two winning couples will get. An entire wedding to start. That includes invitations, flowers, photography, coordination, cakes, a gown and so much more! Plus the comfort of knowing that you are in the best hands humanly possible to help plan the biggest day ever. It’s really the chance of a lifetime and we feel pretty great about helping the amazing team of vendors announce it.
To enter, you’ll want to go over to Jessica’s Country Flowers and fill out the contact form. In the “additional comments” section, make sure to tell the team all about you (or the friend/family member you are referring) and why you feel like you need this wedding. It’s VERY important to note that the wedding will be a gift to a couple that is in financial hardship and yet is giving back to our world in one way another. Good people who deserve something special. The deadline to enter is July 1st but the sooner you enter, the better as they want to really take their time in choosing the perfect couple.
We're looking for two couples planning a 2011 wedding!! :)
What a great idea, yet another reason why I love Style Me Pretty! It's fantastic to give to those who are giving back!
How wonderful! Good luck to everyone! We'll try to help spread the word!
We would love to spread the word on our blog - everyone loves Give-Aways and as we've had Jessica's Flowers grace the tables at The Gershon Fox, we can vouch for how lovely her work is.
Does this have to be a New England based wedding?
Wow! How fantastic, Abby! This is so generous of those NE vendors. I will definitely post this on my blog as I'm from Boston. Thanks for giving back so much:)
Wonderful! This is so exciting and so generous of you!
Will the wedding have to take place in New England?
This is so awesome! Great job on this Jessica!
Thank you for this wonderful idea from really wonderful people!
Wishing all entrants good luck, but still hoping my son and his fiance' win this one!
So looking forward to this!!!
We are so thrilled that we can be a part of this! Looking forward to it!

YES, it needs to be a wedding in NEW ENGLAND..... thanks everyone! we're thrilled to be doing this with such a fabulous team of wedding vendors!
Is DC/Maryland too far away from "New England"? We aren't *that* far!!
This a such a fabulous giving back give away! I'm just curious how do you coordinate the dates for the weddings with all of these vendors?
we are so glad to be a part of this incredible giveaway, especially in times like these.
we all have amazing people in or around our daily lives that do so much even when they have so little. i am looking forward to the joy one such deserving couple will get, and to being a part of providing that joy. this is what makes our job so much fun.

This is such an amazing opportunity for two well deserved couples and all of it because of the generosity of the vendors who participated. Great way to pay it forward.
can't wait for this to come.........am so excited to be a part of this!!!!
This is a gorgeus arrangement of flowers with all the lavender hues. There will sure be 2 happy couples for 2011!!
many thanks to abby and jessica for creating such a worthwhile endeavor. appreciate being part of such good energy. . .
Over the last few years we felt that we had come so far... and we're really grateful to have come so very far, in such little time. This is simply our way of giving back.
We've been fortunate enough to have earned a wonderful reputation in the wedding industry and design some pretty amazing weddings! We felt it was only right to design an over-the-top wedding for someone who is a little less fortunate. It starts your life out on a positive note...and not in debt. Or not having regrets wishing you had a little more money to have the wedding you always dreamed of.
Jessica,
You are all class my friend!!!!
What an honorable and humble way to show your appreciation for all that you have been blessed with!!
To all the vendors participating in this.........many, many blessings to you all!
We've narrowed it down from over 100 applicants to 8 couples. Last night, we narrowed it down even further to 3 couples! KEEP your eyes peeled to STYLE ME PRETTY blog for the winners!!
I thought the deadline for this 2011 contest wasn't until July? If you've already narrowed the contest down to 3 couples is there even any chance for anyone else to enter/possibly win?
Oh no! Now I am wondering this also. Is the contest already closed?!
the contest is not closed. We would like to choose a couple soon as to make sure everyone (vendors) has the date available. It takes much time to coordinate such a wonderful event.
We have a wonderful love story and I want to apply for this b/c we have been engaged for a year and with this economy we can't afford our wedding. How do we apply?
Will the winners be posted on this page? And When? This is truly an amazing gift. The two couples who are chosen will be very blessed!
SOUNDS GREAT!!! PLEASE CONSIDER US RIGHT AWAY. WEDDING APRIL 2011
We hope it isn't too late but we are still going to try. Thanks for considering us. This is by far the most generous wedding giveaway I have ever stumbled upon. G.L to all the couples who have entered. Happy Wedding planning~
Hi there My name is Desiree Gurule. My fiances name is Adrian Montoya. We would love to have our wedding this upcoming year. It is just so hard with him being gone. Due to the fact that he is in the United States Air Force, we have not had anytime to plan. He is currently deployed leaving me with the responsibility of planning the wedding. I would greatly appreciate winning this. Especially because of the fact that we have such big family's it is going to be so hard to plan for so many people. It would mean so much to me and my fiance! please consider us for this wonderful experience! -Desiree and Adrian
We're dying to know when the lucky couple will be announced!!! How soon will it be posted??
I am looking to be married August 12, 2011
We are getting married 09/10/2011... We have been together 4 years already and have one beautiful 2 yr old little boy. We have kind of a low budget for our wedding but, we are already seeing that is cost a little more then expected, I am also already overwhelmed with people trying to help and do the whole thing themselves. I would rather get someone who knows what they are doing and let them do it all :) But, that cost lots of money I need this PLEASE!!!! Thank you! We have about 150 guests so far
My fiance and I were engaged this past february after four years of dating. Our goal was to have our wedding on 04/30/2011. I am a single Mum and on a very tight budget and cannot expect my fiance to pay for everything himself.I am believing God for a dream wedding giveaway so decided to do a search. We have alot of people flying in from Canada, Africa and London and so need to pull it off somehow.
Wow! This is an amazing giveaway! My fiance and I have been dating just about 4 years. Our first date/first kiss/first long embrace/first holding of hands....all of it was with eachother and we are SO blessed with that! God ultimately taught us how to love one another. After dating two years and spending so much time together I decided to go away to school. Granted, school is only about an hour and a half away but the time apart is very hard on the both of us. Just at the beginning of the year we started seriously talking about marriage and what a big role that was. He had been laid off so we knew it couldn't be anytime soon but we kept praying for God to move and open doors for us. After the summer I had to say "good-bye" to him and to another school year and it broke our hearts trying to work all summer to save up for us and then spend it all on bills and school and life. So I reached a point where I thought it would be years until we got engaged and I grew to be okay with that because I knew it would be in God's time. However, on Nov. 5 he suprised me and ended up asking me and telling me that everything would be ok and he couldn't wait to prepare for our marriage. A wedding has always been our dream...relatively small and simple. Our parents have had a big turn in their finances. We want to be fair with inviting all of the people who mean so much to us but the money isn't allowing it. As we are striving to save life keeps getting in the way. We are much more concerned about the marriage than the wedding but it would still be nice to have that one dream that a little girl always has to come true.
This is an unbelievable opportunity my fiancé and I are planning a wedding for 11-11-11. With just the reception we have surpassed our budget please send us instructions on how to enter.
Thanks
Rose
