We started off this morning talking about the details. Always the details. Julia & Mike’s New England wedding from this past year is a perfect example of how to infuse a sense of playfulness into one of the most intense days of your lives!
From polka dots and drumsticks to pick-up trucks, sassy yellow shoes and sneakers …
Gotta’ love the Chevy!
Without question, my favorite days on Style Me Pretty are those where readers send in Real Weddings based on inspiration boards that we’ve featured in the past. So, when Kacie sent me pictures of her own recent wedding and the board that started it all, I changed the direction of today’s post!!
Kacie designed an inspiration board for on of our contests a while back. Here it is…
And here is how her insanely gorgeous wedding turned out…

I have to say, this is one of the prettiest weddings I have ever seen…with or without a budget. I love the sweet, understated details of the day and the intimate feeling of having just close friends and family as guests. You really get a sense of just how special this couple is.

More details from Nole…
In order to stay in our budget, we kept our guest list to only our closest family and friends (around 50 people) and prioritized some wedding elements (such as food and photography) over others (such as floral arrangements). We also tried to do as many DIY projects as we could.
We made most of the big decisions pretty early on, including our color...
I have to say, my favorite posts are those where loyal SMP readers are featured. Whether it’s an inspiration board or a color a palette, a real wedding or simply an Ask Abby question, I love the sense of community that we are building here on Style Me Pretty.
One of our readers, Nole, emailed me back in January with questions about her upcoming wedding. It turns out that Nole’s wedding went off without a hitch and she has generously offered to share some pictures and...

Since same-sex weddings are becoming more and more mainstream, I thought that I would share a few of my favorites today. One of our little black book photographers, Doug McGoldrick, sent me this gorgeous wedding and the cake alone was enough to send me over the edge…
I looooove the discs that are hanging from the ceiling…they add a modern sensibility to the affair. I also think that the huge banquets style tables with...
Moving on to Kim’s reception! I want to get right to the pictures, as they are just so beautiful, so rich in color…
I love the easy, relaxed vibe of this reception. Using the floor cushions as extra seating is both practical and oh-so-chic. The style reminds me of a really great, intimate dinner with friends, which is just what a wedding should be.
More Details from Kim…
I had the best time styling a Moroccan styled banquet. Being a stylist,...
