I love all of your color combinations, and the weddings on your blog were just gorgeous! I couldn’t find my exact color combo, navy blue and fuchsia with bright green accents, but I know you could easily...
We are celebrating two completely fabulous weddings today. The first, sent to us by the incredible Duston Todd, is all about sophisticated, unabashed gorgeousness. The second, photographed by the unbelievably talented...
Loving this sweet, family inspired wedding that Carla Ten Eyck sent us. Carla completely nailed it with the vintage style photography, capturing the intimate and yet totally elegant style of the day. You know, I am a firm believer that although a wedding should be a reflection of the couple...it is also one of the only times in our lives where our families come together to celebrate something so incredibly special. Celebrating the...
You know what I love the most about writing a wedding blog? It completely satisfies my completely irrational love of so many different wedding styles, so many different wedding perspectives. A chic, modern affair makes me completely giddy...but so does a fabulous rustic style wedding, a sleek beach side affair, a gorgeous traditional soiree. I love them all and I love that I have a job where I can get lost in each style every day of the week.
This one, sent to us by the AMAZING...
After the ceremony, the couple held a fun cocktail party followed by a pretty incredible reception. It was all about the celebration and you can see from the candids of the guests that everyone was having a blast. I love that...a beautiful, sweet ceremony followed by an all out party. Duston Todd is the genius behind the photographs, shooting the wedding entirely in film. An approach that is incredibly (and sadly) rare these...
Let me tell you a little bit about this couple. They had actually been married a full year before they decided to exchange vows publicly at their home in Tulsa with their closest friends and family. I know, if I had that home, I'd host a pretty killer wedding too. But here's the special part...they obviously have a huge wedding budget. So much so that they decided to forgo all the bells and whistles and instead use their wedding funds to build a water well in an African community. Yep, not only...
I am not sure what I love most about today's featured wedding that Duston Todd sent us. It could be that the couple is so ridiculously gorgeous that it's hard NOT to fall in love with each and every picture. Oh and the dress, the shoes, the cute groom...it's all kind of perfect. But I think that what I love most, are the absolutely STUNNING, all film photographs. Photographs that are literally some of the most spectacular I've...
Kristina and Mark's May wedding took place on the beautiful island of Oahu at the Hawaii State Art Museum. Little Black Book members, Flowergirls sent us these gorgeous shots of their contribution to the day!
Kristina and Mark's wedding style was 'modern ~ organic' ...
I think that it's pretty clear just how much I love Smock. They are next to none in terms of quality and fabulous design work and are always coming out with really innovating ways to approach invitation design. So, when they sent me pics from their new social stationery collection, I jumped at the chance to share it with you guys!
Here is a little bit of detail...
I am a sucker for a perfect, cocktail style short wedding dress. Probably because I am not sure I could ever take the plunge myself (though have such jealously for those who do!), but also because there is so much room for such fabulous style when you shorten the hemline.
So, when the wonderfully talented Alice Hu sent me photos from a recent shoot that she did for Dolly Couture, I swooned a little bit...
If you haven't been following Minted's latest Design Challenge, you've been missing out! We've partnered up with the fab brand to do a Save the Date design challenge and have been blown away by the amazingness that the designers have come up with. And, it's finally time to cast my vote and decide on the best Save the Date...but I need your help.
There are just SO many perfect designs, I simply can't choose. Here are my top...
Today's delightful wedding is from Charleston's Calder Cark Designs. Alice and Jeff's wedding celebration was planned around a few key elements ... a cool French blue and crisp khaki color palette, natural and preserved boxwood fixtures and greenery, vintage crewelwork graphics and Charleston charm ... of course!
SO many of our favorite weddings are in Charleston! Alice and Jeff's spring...
If you are just now stopping by, we are devouring THE most beautiful wedding that Lisa Lefkowitz sent us. Lisa is a dream come true, always sending us affairs that are sophisticated, elegant and utterly gorgeous, with details that make me swoon time and time again. This wedding, designed by the fabulous Alison Hotchkiss, is that...and so much more.
A few more...
Sometimes we feature perfect weddings. You know, those weddings where every detail just seems to fall right off the pages of a magazine. This is one of those perfect weddings. The bride and groom are flawless, the detailing that Alison Hotchkiss dreamed up, the flowers by Branch and of course, the perfect photographs by...
When Lisa Lefkowitz sends me one of her weddings, my heart does a little pitter-patter. She is so good at what she does, so thoughtful in her photography, she just allows you fall head over heels for every single affair. So when she emailed me today's first featured wedding, I did a little happy dance. Then I saw that one of my all time favorite planners and now dear friends...
We have a pretty sweet giveaway for one of you, today! Deborah Nadel is the calligrapher who worked with Ethan and Janet, featured a few days ago on the LBB Blog...
A little over two weeks ago we told you guys about the contest that Jessica's Country Flowers was sponsoring {here}. The 2010 Deserving Couple's Contest was need based with the winners receiving complimentary floral...
Thank you so very much to the amazingly talented Amanda Herzberger of Orchard Cove Photography (and second-shooters Brian Fitzgerald and Sarah Waldo) for sending us today's featured affair. I am in love. To say the least. For those of you that share...
It's funny. I seem to fall head over heels in love with every wedding that we post on SMP. I know that I throw a lot of spirit sprinkles and high kicks into my my posts, but oddly enough...I sincerely mean it. And this wedding, is one of our best. Filled with perfectly thoughtful touches, elegant but unbelievably humble details, a bride and groom that are literally glowing...it is MORE than high kick worthy in my book!
Rachel & Will's wedding receptions took place at...
Today we're finishing up our featured wedding from Dave Robbins Photography with a bit of Abby and Matt's story! But before we get to that, we wanted to elaborate just a bit more on the favors. Abby told us that in the 1800's, sugar was always sold in blue paper-wrapped cones. For their wedding, Abby and Matt were able to find these sugar cones from a historical reenactment company and used them...
