From the moment I opened this Charleston wedding, I have not been able to stop soaking up every romantic, classic detail. It was the Monique Lhuillier dress that drew me in. That luxe, gorgeous dress. I quickly fell in love with the grounds of Middleton Place, and was enamored by the sword ceremony - and the sense of history it added to the special day. Every fantastic detail... [MORE]
Good morning LBBers! We've got a wonderfully romantic wedding to start your day off right. A soft color palette, be it creams, pastels, or in this case purples, can put a gorgeous, fresh feel on a wedding. It's subtle, romantic, and lets the couple shine in all their beauty. This Austin couple was beyond beautiful, and their wedding was just an extension of their love. The gorgeous bride married her man in uniform on a beautiful day in Texas, and lucky for us... [MORE]
There may not be a uniform in sight, but the Military Groom is present in this Santa Barbara fete. Soon to be sent over seas, this couple set out to plan a gorgeous wedding full of LOVE and worthy of every single last squeal heard around the office today. Mishelle Lamarand Photography captured all the monochromatic flower gorgeousness crafted by NLC Productions, not to mention the... [MORE]
Today is a very special day and we want to do our part to honor and remember on this Veterans Day by celebrating some beautiful military weddings. We'll start the morning off with one of the sweetest DIY military weddings we've ever seen.

One of the best things about my job is the virtual vacation I get to go on every day when I log in. And not only do I get to visit places all around the world, but I get to seem them in the prettiest way imaginable - by wedding. I've been to locales I've never thought I'd go - and I've added new spots to my never ending vacation bucket list. My favorite is when I am transported into an absolutely phenomenal wedding taking place in a land of which I have never spent much time thinking about, and... [MORE]
As someone who tied the knot on the third of July, I can attest to the level of difficulty concerning an sweet, Americana wedding with a tasteful smattering of red, white, and blue. So often, it can come out not quite right - too over-the-top patriotic, so understated that the nuptials no longer read good old U S of A. With the help of Proud to Plan, this couple NAILED it. The whole affair was chic, classic, and had just enough George... [MORE]
There are so many special details in this Savannah wedding, captured by Shannon Christopher, I don't really know where to start. We're completely swooning over the bride's decision to wear her mother's wedding gown for her ceremony - for sentiment - and her change into a gown of her own choosing - for glamour - on her big day. Such a great way of celebrating her history. And speaking of paying homage, the sweet, Americana undertones... [MORE]
I feel so honored to be able to share this extraordinary event with you. A team of generous Southern California wedding vendors expressed their gratitude and patriotism to all the men and women serving in the armed forces by putting together a dream wedding in Huntington Beach for 21 military couples to be married or renew their vows at a wedding that could be pulled out of a fairytale. Each and every detail was donated from the dress to the desserts so the couples could experience a... [MORE]
There is a special place in my heart for military weddings. They are the start of not just a new life, but a new adventure. This Army wedding from the talented duo of 4Eyes Photography features a bride who checks all the military boxes with ease. She planned the wedding with her husband via Skype, she took it in stride when her veil had a mind of it's own, she jumped into a bucket of grapes - in her wedding dress - and she... [MORE]
Before I share the last of the military inspired wedding photos, I just wanted to say, on behalf of Style Me Pretty, that we are so incredibly proud of our troops...who are out there day in and day out, fighting for our country.

Brian and Stella, the husband and wife team behind Stella Alesi Photography are all talent. Their work is organic, it's simple and yet...it's always beautiful. So when Brian and Stella sent me this military inspired wedding that captured their style to perfection, I had to share it with you! This wedding is pure yummy. It was held at the organically certified Barr Mansion in Austin, Texas. The couple actually met while... [MORE]
