OK, ladies (and gents, too) I've been so excited to share this feature with y'all! I love, love, love when our LBBers give us tips of any sort, since, well, they're the pros! One thing most of us probably don't think about until the day arrives, is how to look natural in front of the camera. When you have a photog as talented as Austin wedding photographer Uma Sanghvi of Studio Uma, you're sure to end up with stunning photos either way. But...

One thing I love more than anything? Karaoke. Oh my goodness, do I like to get up and sing. So, when I read that this darling duo actually met on karaoke night AND that the dashing groom chose to rock Beastie Boys, I knew I was going to seriously adore them and their wedding. And you know what? I was right. A sweet soiree held at the breathtaking Delaney Vineyard, it's a romantic affair with a candlelit aisle, dark red...
There are a lot (A LOT) of reasons I adore Texas weddings, but ranking high atop the list? All of the creative details you lovelies manage to infuse into your big days.

A day that will most definitely go down in SMP history? Yes, indeed. See every last moment captured by the...

You know what is seriously fantastic? A bride who says she "absolutely loves to throw a party" and dives into crafting the day of her dreams like it's no ones business. I love brides like that. So, this stunning Austin Mrs.? I happen to adore her. Because, together with a talented team of vendors and her handsome Mr., she put together a day that was all kinds of crazy gorgeous with a stunning Mercury Hall setting, to-die-for...
These two sweeties really know how to craft a wedding. I'm talking mason jar candles, fab paper goods, burlap, lace and all kinds of crazy awesome DIYing, people. They (+ their amazing friends and family) are as talented as they come. And not only do they know how to create a fabulous wedding, they also happen to know how to throw a fantastic party. One with yummy BBQ, Elvis (!) and dancing 'till dawn. See every last fun-filled moment captured by...
A traditional Austin wedding chock-full of beautiful blooms from STEMS Floral Design is kind of like a gift from the wedding gods.

Because anything dripping with sparkling gold hues and lush white florals...
When an Austin wedding pops up in our inbox, I can't help but drop everything and devour it. Because there is something about that Texas city (and its people) that just seem to produce the most stylish of fêtes. My point is proven in the prettiest of ways with this wedding captured by Alea Moore Photography. It mixes tradition and trends in the most fabulous of ways, and the lovely of this Austin affair all unfolds...
There are some couples that grace the pages of SMP I feel like I know after just a peek of their wedding. Because they seem to just ooze style and their wedding is packed to the gills with personality. This is just such a wedding, and the two lovebirds gracing the gorgeous images from Jennifer Crenshaw Photography are just such a couple. It only takes a few clicks through this...
When a group of uber-talented Texas vendors join forces to create an edgy meets vintage Dallas photo session, gorgeous things can happen. Gorgeous things like a door turned table lined with stunning red florals from We + You, yummy treats from CakeWalk Bake Shop and dazzling gold accents styled by Off Your Shoulders.
