Wedding Fashions by Shelly Kroeger Photography

I just got these incredible fashion shots in my inbox and literally jumped for joy when I saw them. The amazing team over at Shelly Kroeger Photography shot the fashion story about a week ago for Gabriella’s Bridal Salon in Manhattan. The amazing Nam Vo did all of the make-up and beauty styling and the look is pure gorgeousness.

Monique Lhuillier (who else) is the designer behind the first set of gowns, with it’s perfect lace overlay and stunning silhouette. Sassy Holford designed the next set and it’s all girl. Love that! All of the head pieces were done by the AMAZING Sara Gabriel.

This could be the best dress that I have ever seen, with it’s vintage vibe and chic, totally fabulous feather detailing. I am madly, madly in love. Its by Angel Sanchez exclusively for Gabriella New York Bridal Salon, with a headpiece by Court and Plume in combination with a fabric flower by Sara Gabriel. Oh the options!

Real Wedding: Phoebe and Jacob, VI

It’s my husband’s birthday today so we are cutting out a little early to go to the Lakers/Celtics game (his dream come true, really). But, I wanted to leave you with a last look at today’s wedding. It’s just about as close to perfection as you can get.

Thank you so much to Shelly Kroeger of Union Photography for sharing these absolutely delightful images with us. I think that in large part, it’s the photographs that elevate this ridiculously beautiful wedding to one that will go down in SMP books as a all-time fav.

Real Wedding: Phoebe and Jacob, V

There are a few things that I think every wedding should have…a lovely, cohesive (but not too matchy, matchy) color palette. A dress that makes the bride feel absolutely gorgeous. And a few little details that brings a smile to your guests’ faces. This wedding is that, and so much more…

More to come from Union Photography!

Real Wedding: Phoebe and Jacob, IV

LOVING today’s featured wedding. I know that we feature a lot of outdoor weddings (we are working behind the scenes to get some really inspiring indoor weddings together soon), but I just couldn’t resist showing you guys one more. There is just something magical in the photographs that Shelly Kroeger of Union Photography captured. Makes me want to get married all over again…and coming from a wedding blogger, that is a big deal!

The wedding was held at Bear Flag Farm in Winters, California and was planned by owner, Tina Reikes. I took a little trip to the Bear Flag Farm website and oh my. It is like every bride’s dream come true! Elegant, totally romantic and unbelievably dreamy.The mantra is “Where food, wine, family and friends are celebrated.” Umm, perfection?

The flowers for this event were designed by Edward Bellingeri, who is so clearly one of the more talented florists out there. He managed to design flowers that fit the venue, the bride, the everything really…love, love, love. So much more to come!

Real Wedding: Phoebe and Jacob, III

Phoebe and Jacob’s gorgeous wedding is one of those weddings that simply makes you smile. It reminds you of really simple, sweet days spent with close friends and family. Perfect girls in perfect dresses. Where the whole world just seems to glow…

As someone that spends their days poring over weddings, this one is such a bright spot. From the bride’s ethereal style, to the stunning florals and simple but beautiful color palette of pinks, yellows and soft neutrals…every detail is just lovely. And the photographs, shot by Shelly Kroeger of Union Photo, well they are absolutely stunning.

Today, we are featuring the prettiest wedding, sent to us by the oh-so-talented Shelly Kroeger of Union Photography. The minute I saw this wedding, I jumped at the chance to feature it, which left me basically no time to get together all of the details. I am hoping that Shelly will be able to provide some for us but in the mean time, I thought you guys would be okay with a little more eye candy…

So much more to come!
