I just love me a good Mexico wedding on the beach. I seriously can't get enough of them and their stormy skies and effortlessly hip design. I go nuts for them each and every time! And when they just so happen to be designed by AE Planning + Design, with florals by Canteiro, and photographed by Paco and Betty, well then I just...
This is the most amazing proposal story that I have ever heard! It is going to be pretty tough to top and I just wonder what this groom has planned for their first anniversary! Every single leg of the journey was documented by California stationery vendor Wiley Valentine and coordinated byZinke Design. I'm going to let the lucky bride-to-be take you through her incredible...
I am a BIG advocate for wedding cinematography. HUGE. Why might you ask? Because I was one of those people that was super close to not having our day captured on video, and that would have been a BIG mistake. HUGE. Because I literally watch our video multiple times a week. Do I cry every.single.time? Why yes I do. Don't judge. Anywho, Elite Video Productions sent over yet another example of why it's so important - they captured this sweet...
Picsee Studio, who has one of the cutest names in the biz by-the-way, sent us this Tennessee charmer, and we've fallen for the sweet and beautiful bride, the cowboy groom, and the love that just bounces off of them. A product of an overly talented bride, this DIY wedding features great handmade details. Read that? Handmade - as in you can gather lots of inspiration from this one!
When I first saw these photos I dreamt I had died and gone to wedding heaven. Visions of Monique Lhuillier, sparkly Jimmy Choo's and Rodeo Drive were dancing in my head. Then I realized I was not in fact dreaming but witnessing the amazing talent that is Jen Lauren Grant Photography. Her images are so dreamy and sophisticated that I could literally stare at them all day long. Oh wait, I already have and now it's your turn! Enjoy my...
OK, grooms, you need to step it up because at this Jacksonville wedding from Mi Amore Foto the husband-to-be actually serenaded his wife with a sweet rendition of their song during the ceremony. Now if that doesn't set the bar for best vows ever than I don't know what does. On top of being totally aw-inducing the details are delicate, sweet and elegantly understated. And if you're into shoes (who isn't into shoes?) you will love...
Get your Pinterest pins out people, because this vintage Americana road trip photo shoot is just oozing with inspiration (and is completely adorable!). It was destined to be fabulous - I mean, fabulous is just what you expect from a brainchild of Mélangerie Inc and Rock Paper Scissors Events and then captured by...
I am absolutely wild about this whimsical and vibrant Puerto Vallarta wedding by Elizabeth Lloyd and The Dazzling Details. It is at once playful and totally glamorous which are two things that should always go together. The white modern words scattered throughout from the LOVE placed off-centered on the ceremony canopy to the numbers spelled out on each table is a really...
I can't help but think of that 80's tune by Christopher Cross when I look at this next wedding. You know the one, "Saillllling takes me awayyyyyy..." Or the way my uncle would shout, "Port-about-hard-a-lee" at my clearly confused sister and I as we sailed into harbor. Seriously though, how sweet is this little sailboat nuptial? This adorable couple braved the open sea to say their I Do's and Dearly Loved Photography was there...
Wow! This wedding is so all about the details that it was unbelievably hard to choose which amazing photos by Calla Evans to include. This is what happens when a bride and groom who own an event planning business (Lustre Event Coordination) decide to throw their own fabulous wedding! They legit thought of every last detail. And the result? A totally swoon-worthy...
If you love flowers, and umm, who doesn't, you're gonna love this next little beauty from the good old Commonwealth of Massachusetts. It's so overflowing with amazingly beautiful flowers that I can practically smell the tuberose and hydrangea from here! Captured by the super talented Eric Limón, this wedding is sure to make you a wee bit jealous of its gorgeousness.
We are pretty sure the Groom from our next feature gets Super Duper Groom of the Year. Not only did he roll his sleeves up and help design ties, invitations, a guest book and other papergoods for the wedding BUT (and this is the kicker) he completely refinished an adorable tandem bike and presented it to his bride at a surprise picnic right before the wedding. How awesome is that?
After the Royal Nuptials, we all seem to be in a tizzy on this side of the pond about all things headdress. And when the inspiration of a photo shoot is F. Scott Fitzgerald, romance, whimsy, and all things vintage, you better believe we were expecting something magical adorning the brides crown. We were absolutely not disappointed. This shoot, dreamed up by Smart & Chic Bride...
I've said it once and I'll say it again: I'm obsessed with Australian weddings! The views, the bright pops of color, the super happy people...they are always just so, well perfect! I wonder what their secret is? Perhaps it's hiring an amazing photographer like NJOY THE MOMENT? Whatever it is, I'm a huge fan for life and I'll think you will be too once you see what's...
This next wedding is quintessential New England. From the chalkboard menu to the candy coated apples, it's also a DIY goldmine! This cute couple was certainly not afraid to get their hands dirty and also made the table markers and arranged the flowers. Photographed beautifully by Robert and Kathleen Photographers, this wedding is fun, fresh, and simple and in the great words of McDonald's advertising, "I'm loving it!"...
Everything about this modern Sonoma wedding by Flory Photo screams fun. The bright blue and yellow palette, ridiculously cute ring bearing pup and giant slice of cake wedding cake could give even the grumpiest guest a case of perma-grin. I love that each and every detail that was incorporated as special meaning to the bride and groom. It just makes an already spectacular wedding that much more special. ...
There is so much to love about this Houston wedding by Stefano Choi Photography. Personally I just want to walk around in that amazing dress. Even just around my house - a dress like that will make any mundane chore seem glamorous. But I digress, this wedding was a family affair in all respects - that amazing dress was a gift, the bride hand letter pressed (true story) her save the dates, the groom's grandfather was the officiant and...
Now this is my kind of party. The festivities went on until two in the morning, only because the venue kicked them out, and moved to a near by bar to keep the good times going. Before then, there was a romantic, seaside ceremony and reception with simple but oh-so chic decor. efeunodos photography photographed every dreamy and mesmerizing moment including a personal firework show put on my the bride's brother and father. ...
This contemporary Philadelphia wedding, seen through the lens of Sofia Negron, had me at that dress. That perfect, simple dress with the over the top, fabulous back. It is THE gown for this chic affair - classic with amazing, gorgeous little details. Coordinated by lovely Lynda of I DO Wedding Consulting, the whole fête went down at the...
