Well, I've saved the best of today's real wedding features for last. The oh-so-cute reception. Photographed by Heather Kincaid, this reception is all about fun, with a bit of charm and style mixed in for good measure. There is really no point in me blabbing on and on, when the bride is here to share all of the great details!
From the bride...
My absolute favorite details were the large chalkboards that...
Loving today's featured wedding. It's the perfect wedding really...a beautiful couple, a chic, approachable style, details that are both thoughtful and utterly charming. Heather Kincaid shot the affair and did a beautiful job giving us a window into the day.
We have so much more to come in just a bit...including the CUTEST reception...
After being mesmerized by the astonishing cover shoot and 10th Anniversary Bride and Groom Magazine party that Sedona Bride shot, I spent some time looking around their website and...
The fabulous Heather Kincaid sent us today's featured affair and to me, it is so indicative of her style...natural elegance, approachable gorgeousness. The entire wedding is about as lovely as it gets, with a bride and groom that hand crafted nearly every detail.
Here is a little description of the day from the girl behind the lens. We'll have more from the...
The fabulous Heather Kincaid sent me this wedding and if I had to come up with just one word for it (which, if you know me, is very hard) it would simply be pretty. This wedding is all about the pretty...pretty details, an incredibly pretty couple, an oh-so-pretty style.
From the lovely bride...
From the beginning I knew that I wanted my wedding to be simple and chic and not too over the top. Since we had...
I am OBSESSED with this e-session. Could be my favorite yet. It's so editorial, so style-centric, so edgy. In a world of lovey-dovey engagement portraits, this is such a fun and welcome change. And of course, two of my favorite photographers, Paul and Krystal of Studio Foto, are behind the genius!
And although the railroad shots are completely and totally awesome, this next set is ridiculous. LOVE them.
So, most of you know that before I started SMP, I was a stationery designer. After working in a little boutique paperie in San Francisco, I fell hard for all things paper. And have since been a bit of a paper snob. Letterpress, perfectly engraved designs, thick, soft papers...it all really gets me going.
Which is why I am so surprised to really love this little video I spotted over on...
I saw these dazzling photos on Sedona Bride's blog a few weeks ago and haven't been able to get them out of my head!
Taken at Phoenix Bride and Groom Magazine's 10th Anniversary Celebration, the images...
This is a really fun giveaway and one that we've never done before...a custom cake stand! Raise the Cake recently launched their adorable line of fabric covered stands, along with a couture line where you can design your own to perfectly suit your wedding style. And they are selling like hot cakes.
Let's face it...the cake takes center stage most of the time. I actually decked mine out with edible glitter and put it...
For those of you that read SMP regularly, you know that I am a little bit obsessed with Simply Bloom Photography. They have such a sweet, vintage perspective...filled with total emotion and love. Sounds a little cheesy, but a photo filled with love is a really good thing.
This cute e-session that they recently did is all about the personality...cute little pit stops at the couple's favorite places. My person...
Thank you, thank you, thank you to Jose Villa and Alison Hotchkiss for letting SMP be the one to debut this incredible weddings. Just goes to show, these two are a power house of talent, of style and of unabashed awesomeness. And to this beautiful couple who had to forgo their original plans...the wedding turned about perfectly.
So, wasn't I right...totally loveable...
Just as I promised, we have a TON of photos from today's wedding...it was so completely delicious, I couldn't possibly narrow it down. So, I am basically passing everything that the amazing Jose Villa photographed, right on to you!
For those of you that are just joining us, we featured this couple's incredible...
Today's wedding is great for a few reasons. One, Jose Villa photographed it. It doesn't get much better than Jose. He is pure and total talent and I am forever grateful to have formed a friendship with him, as I wholeheardedly feel like he inspires my life in little bits every day.
The second reason, is Alison Hotchkiss, event designer extraordinaire and author of a killer...
I love, love, love this wedding. I know that I say that all the time so it's a little like the boy who cried wolf, but this time. Well, you'll see. Remember the incredible rehearsal dinner that the fabulous Alison Hotchkiss planned and Jose Villa (who really needs...
Pretty much any wedding in Napa is gorgeous, but when you combine the awesome wedding venue of Auberge du Soleil with a drop-dead gorgeous bride wearing a truly amazing Vera Wang gown ... hmmm ... fabulous!

So today, we've been all about fashion. Weddings where fabulous fashion reigned queen and the bride and groom really put their style stamp on the clothing they chose. In my opinion, I've saved the best for last. You might have seen this incredible gown on other blogs, because lets face it...it's ridiculously awesome and bloggers swooped it up the moment it went public. But, you probably haven't seen the entire affair in all it's glory!
