Weddings are amazing, wonderful things that bring people together and remind us of the absolute importance of those who love us and whom we love unconditionally. And this backyard after-wedding session from Evan Hunt Photo captures a sweet-as-can-be family and the adoration they have for one another. Simple and emotion-filled, it's a shoot like this that gets my heart racing.
Yesterday we paid a little visit to a gorgeous soiree in my home state, but I wasn't quite ready to leave the Great Lakes State, so we're back this morning with a second helping. This one comes to us from Jen Lynne Photography, who captured a day filled with personality and heart. Seriously, this bride has got it...
Anytime I get to see florals this good, I like to take note of just who is the master behind the bouquets, and when I saw that the flowers in this wedding were DIY-ed by the Bride, my jaw literally hit the floor. And that's not all folks, this wedding from Mirelle Carmichael Photography is so rich in color and steeped in tradition that I'm sure your jaws will also be dropping very soon after you see all the pretty, pretty images...
The romance of Autumn always gets me. The seemingly haphazard floating of the colorful leaves as they fall to the ground to make the most diverse medleys of oranges and yellows and reds and browns might just be the reason why I am so blown away by this wedding from Kristy Dickerson Photography. I am oh-so-enchanted by all of the amazing portraits of these two sweethearts seeing each other for the first time on their wedding day on...
My favorite kind of wedding is one deeply rooted in tradition. Where the details are not only stop-in-your-tracks gorgeous, but they also have a story behind them. And this Sanibel Island wedding at Traders Cafe & Store from Set Free Photography did just that. From the "roots & wings" theme and the quilt guest book to bride's veil which incorporated pieces of...
These two love birds might have the coolest jobs ever because not only do they work together, they get to travel the open seas on fabulous luxury yachts! See, I told you. However, there's certainly no place like home so they returned to the bride's hometown for their special day and friends and family were all there to celebrate. Marc Ash Photography captured some seriously stunning images and there's a whole lot more to see...
This Fall marked my first time ever visiting an orchard for some good ol' fashioned apple picking and I loved every.single.minute of it. The way the autumn light catches the crisp apples in their extraordinary powdery colors against the bright green leaves is breathtaking and unique to this autumn tradition. So when I see a wedding like this one at Harvest Time Orchards complete with all that apple orchard beauty and a downright...
It's no secret that the Green Building in Brooklyn is one of our favorite venues ever, so when we saw this pretty little gem sent into us by Sarah Hoppes Photography, we jumped for joy! It's one part vintage, two parts elegant, and all sorts of DIY pretty! Yup everything from the guest book to the yummy granola favors were all made with love by the bride and groom and their families. Talk about love.
Navy and pink is such a classic combo. It has its roots set in the land of prep but with the addition of hand-crafted details coordinated by 2Chic Events & Design and some groomsmen who weren't afraid to don polka dot socks, this combo was kicked into whimsical overdrive. And we haven't even mentioned the cakes; a table of pink and blue confectionery treats created by...
This Prairie Production wedding is modern chic to the max! I love how the white crisp walls and surroundings let the couple's choice of royal purple take center stage for some dramatic tablescapes and details. This modern space is to die for -- It feel like you're having an elegant dinner in a trendy art gallery filled with priceless art of, well, the couple of course!
It's no secret that we're total suckers for backyard weddings around these parts, but when said backyard is a sweet, urban oasis, we go into swooning overdrive! This super casual, intimate affair reminds us that your big day doesn't have to be big at all. It can be a simple ceremony with just a handful of your closest friends. Oh, and great food and al fresco dining doesn't hurt! Léon Images captured this sweet day to perfection.
I think this couple (and their family and friends) need to go into the wedding styling business stat -- What an unbelievable DIY delight this wedding is! I can't get over the lovely garden grid made out of branches and greenery that stood as the ceremony and reception backdrop. Natural and gorgeous! And don't even get me started on the tablescapes -- The white doilies create the perfect vintage chic vibe. I love everything! It's as simple as that. Thank you, ...
I'm pretty sure I'm in love with how casual, yet beautiful this picnic wedding is. It's so simple but filled with the most perfect little details ever. And how about this bride and groom from Canada? I love how they decided to pop off their cruise ship, get married surrounded by close friends and family (and lavender!) and then hop back on board to cruise off into the sunset. Totally dreamlike and amazing! Don't miss all the pretty by...
If you know me the teeniest little bit, you know one thing - I am an old soul. A soul that believes in tradition, in occasions and in the glamorous details of everyday life. More than one person in my life has said I belong in another decade, and if I were to choose one - it would be the decade that inspired Mark Padgett Wedding Design and...
I admit it. When it comes to crafty projects, I'm not exactly talented. In fact, I am fairly certain absolutely certain I am all together missing the DIY gene. So, when I first laid my eyes on this breathtaking Cape San Blas affair by Tana Photography, well... I was equal parts giddy and uber-impressed. Literally overflowing with one amazing detail after another, it's moment after moment lovingly crafted by the stunning...
Okay, so I totally have a crush on this adorable couple and their pretty, pretty wedding...But how can you blame me really? Just a few minutes into this wedding gallery, and I was totally smitten with the cuter-than-cute way that they look at one another. Even though neither one is from the windy city, they knew that a downtown Chicago wedding was just the thing for them. Their wedding was captured perfectly by...
This Farm 255 wedding is a little bit country, and a little bit city slick, just like the LA based Southern rooted bride and groom. Fluffy garden florals by Gardenia Floral Design keep the Southern charm rolling in milk glass vases collected by the bride and her mother. Speaking of white and pretty: the bride's uber elegant structural silk ...
When the venue is Barr Mansion and the photographer is Mike Reed Photo it's a given that we're in for a very special treat. Well, this wedding definitely raised the bar to an entirely new level. Nothing tugs at my heart more than a southern wedding with all the fixin's - and this fête is a fine example. You've got your gorgeous couple, a classic mansion with Victorian...
A blending of different cultures and traditions always makes for the most beautiful of celebrations and sometimes those celebrations turn into two day wedding extravaganzas. Love Me Do Photography captured a whole weekend full of festivities that culminated in this gorgeous, modern affair held at One Atlantic. It's layers of bright florals by ...
This wedding is filled to the pretty brim with deets I'm totally crushing on. The flowers are perfect for this beautiful Spring day. The deep purple and vibrant green are the best compliment to the stunning vineyard grounds. The tented reception, dressed to impress, looked to be a blast. And this couple is the sweetest - definitely the kinds of people I just WANT to be friends with. Especially after reading the proposal story (you HAVE to read it). And the entire thing is wrapped up in pretty...
