I've always had a soft spot in my heart for Fall and Winter weddings.  I don't know if it's the rich jewel tones, the crisp weather or the cozy vibe of the season (or a combo of all of the above), but they've long been a favorite of mine.  So, when this stunning Temecula shoot came our way, it was like Christmas morning.  Christmas morning with one glorious image after another from ...

If there ever was a wedding overflowing with so much pretty I could barely contain my excitement - it would be this cultural beauty by Dream A Little Dream Events and Closer to Love Photography. Honestly, each image made me squeal louder than the last - from the sparkly heels to the Groom and his white horse (and everything in between). It simply doesn't get...

We can barely contain ourselves we are so excited, so let's get this pretty party started, shall we?

There are so many sweet shabby chic inspired details at this wedding that I really don't know where to start! From the little angel figurines to the wooden bird houses to the Scrabble tiles, I am overwhelmed with admiration for this creative couple. And can I be honest for a second? I am in love with ALL things shabby chic, so what I'd really like to do is go shopping at this wedding -- I'd take home everything!! ...

If you would have asked me a few years ago what my favorite color would be, I guarantee pink would not have been on my radar. But then SMP happened and along with that came wedding after gorgeous wedding filled to the brim with pink hues. And you know what? I was totally converted. I'm now a proud pink lover through and through and it's for reasons like this SmogShoppe fête captured by ...

This next wedding is so super gorgeous that I'm gonna go ahead and insist you all visit the full gallery because there's just not enough time to share all the pretty, pretty images by Closer to Love Photography. It's the most beautiful a mix of modern and vintage we ever did see, with so many amazing details, like the paint by number guest book of their image. Such an amazing idea!

I really can't think of a more romantic place to get married than on a lavender farm. That's a venue that has romance written ALL over it. The aroma alone would send me straight to my happy place, and that's even before setting my sights on the gorgeous scenery or the oh-so in love new Mr. & Mrs and all their carefully curated details. When you put all of that in the mix, happy place wouldn't even begin to describe what it would be like to be a guest at this gorgeous wedding. And although...

"Something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue" - We've all heard it, but never have I seen it taken to the next level quite as beautifully as this wedding by Closer to Love Photography. This gorgeous bride is a third generation antique dealer so she (clearly) knows a thing or two about what it means to be vintage chic. Everything from the fantastic floral arrangements by...
