Backyard Los Angeles Wedding by Flutter Glass Photography

Couple crush alert. These two seriously look like they know how to have a good time and if the snap shots of the dance floor are any indication, their reception was the party of the year, maybe the century. A groom doing mid-air splits, that is a definite first on Style Me Pretty. But along with all the dance floor hijinks comes a backyard transformed into a beautiful, lemon-infused shindig crafted by OneNine Design. And the images... [MORE]

Aptos Wedding at Pacific Oaks Vineyard Estate by Stephen Pappas

This wedding makes it seem as if all weddings were meant to look just like this. A sea of the prettiest of pinks, layers upon layers of wedding dress ruffles, nuptials that scream Spring.

Atlanta Wedding at the King Plow Event Gallery by Melissa Schollaert Photography

So instead, my lovelies, my Pinterest account is going to be overflowing... [MORE]
