Spring is definitely in the air which means weddings GALORE over here at Style Me Pretty! Even if you're still waiting for the warmth of spring to hit your neck of the woods, surely you'd love to see some pretty pictures of an adorable warm weathered wedding from Australia? Of course you would! Let's talk about my favorite things from Kristin and Tim's wedding: That hair piece (wow!), those gorgeous proteas (drool!), coordinating cake and paper products (genius!), and finally the... [MORE]
Please raise your hand if you're a sucker for a really good love story. As I suspected, many of you are! I'm cheesy. I admit it. I'm totally the cheeseball who loves hearing the love story behind the wedding. Especially love stories of coincidence. Where people just happen to sit down next to one another at a restaurant or bar, only to walk down the aisle and profess their eternal love to each other a year later (I wasn't kidding about the cheeseball stuff). Well today's... [MORE]
Ladies, let's be honest. There are times in all of our lives where we unleash the "girliness" from within. Times where we indulge all our feminine wants, turn up the Madonna and celebrate being a GIRL. For me it happens every time I step foot in Sephora. But it also happened on my wedding day. A day where all women, if they so choose, get to don an incredible handpicked dress, jazz up that hair of theirs and flutter around with the bouquet of their choice. Well, today's gorgeous... [MORE]
It's been said that "Bread feeds the body, but flowers feed also the soul". It's true, isn't it? Flowers are an intrinsic part of wedding ceremonies and receptions and with good reason - they're stinkin' gorgeous! Truth is that I'm rather horrible at remembering the names of flowers but that's where amazing professionals like Jaime Giorgi of The Monkey Flower Group come in extremely handy. She's the heart and soul... [MORE]
Cuteness knows no bounds when it comes to DIY weddings. This is especially true of this adorable Californian wedding sent to us by Shannon Leith, a fun-loving and talented photographer. It's a cuteness party. And we're invited. I really got a kick out of the gorgeous vintage touches that Jared and Claire (our bride and groom) incorporated into their style. Combined with the antique lace accents, vibrant flora, flag... [MORE]
Let's hear if for all you "yellow" brides! I have to say, yellow accented weddings are a particular fave in my books. They're sunny, vibrant and cheery. Just like this Mexico destination wedding photographed by Tec Petaja. For those of you who aren't familiar with Tec's photography, you're in for a treat. Tec is an artist with a knack for capturing every. little. detail. And Lindsay and Campbell's wedding is the perfect... [MORE]
The word of the day is...whimsical. It's the start of the week and I felt like we all needed something a little fantastical. Something magical and zany. Something over-the-top vintage to spark our creative side. And this wedding is all that and then some. Photographed by Matt of Sights & Sounds, I found my smile growing wider and wider as I browsed through his photos. Lyle and Delia, our bride and groom, are most DEFINITELY two... [MORE]

Ok, seriously? This is a DIY party right here. And we're all invited to drool over it. I'm not exactly sure what I love most about this Santa Barbara wedding? There's a lot to love! I guess if I have to choose it has to be the little tree accents here and there (I am a lover of all things forest+weddings). And um, hello - they have TREES on their TIES! Like...what?! So cool. There's just something completely charming about all the DIY elements of... [MORE]
