One of the best parts of my job is sharing weddings with you. Weddings that I know are going to make your jaw drop. It's my favorite thing ever. This one was set in The New Haven Lawn Club and the building alone is enough to drop that jaw, but the bride, her gown, the flowers (I could go on and on)... let's just say Raw Photo Design had something extra gorgeous to capture on this...

I am quickly learning that flowers set the stage. The mood. The everything. Flowers are everything. So when an inspiration shoot with a floral design this lovely, from Mondo Floral Designs no less, comes across my desk, especially when it's been captured by Studio Impressions, my day has been set. Set fabulous, happy, gorgeous, and good.
These two cuties were engaged among the macarons and champagne of Paris, and the wedding which followed was oh so fitting of that romantic proposal. Complete with those yummy treats, the day was tres chic, if you will. With JoPhoto behind the lens, this is a gallery that will leave you drooling... and begging for more. From the gorgeous...
There is nothing more beautiful than a bride on her wedding day. She's all glowy and in love, rosy cheeks and a smile for days. And there is just a special magic about her. It takes a talented individual to capture every ounce of that magic, and we've filled our Little Black Book with all of those talented photographers. Jonathan Young Weddings, along with his...
One of my all time favorite weddings we've ever featured was from m three studio. Molly just has a way with the camera that is so beautifully fascinating. And somehow, she seems to book the coolest, most beautiful couples. Every one of her weddings is directly filed away into my Favorites List, and this one is no...
When I laid eyes on this wedding the first thing I did was frantically google Pangea Ranch. The land, the vineyards, the views... I had to be there. Come to find out, it's the couple's private ranch. First of all, how romantic is that? Getting married at your gorgeous ranch. And second, raise your hand if you're as jealous as I am that they actually live here?! MAP Events was on hand to extend the natural beauty to the design of the whole...
I don't know how she does it, but Diva Productions always seems to get the absolute sweetest couples ever. They are always so filled with love, which is awesome for us, because the resulting weddings are so super special. Which means the films, already guaranteed to be fab thanks to Diva Productions, are amazing. [iframe http://player.vimeo.com/video/61743225 600 338]...
We're all ready to walk out the door to a beautiful long weekend, hopefully with a few gorgeous weddings sprinkled here and there, but I just wanted to let you know despite the extra day to your weekend, we'll be back here nice and early Monday morning with a wedding SO beautiful, we decided to save it for a day most of you have off work. You know, so you've got the extra time to devour every single image from...
One of my absolute favorite things about our Little Black Book is that I'm finding vendors I can use even though I'm already married. One look at this absolutely stunning wedding, captured by the ever fabulous Milou and Olin Photography, and I was ready to book a trip to the InterContinental Mark Hopkins: San Francisco. Like, literally looking for flights. It's...
This bride is one lucky lady. Not only did she marry her love in what has got to be the prettiest ceremony ever, but her BFF is Lori of wildflowers by design, so you know that wedding was absolutely gorgeous. Gorgeous. All the beautiful details were captured by (mattnnat) photographers, and...
As someone who grew up loving all things wedding and all things princess (thank you Disney) this shoot is right up my alley. Something about it is very Princess Jasmine, but with a super gorgeous, not at all cartoon, touch. Vasia Weddings, the lady behind these stunning images, describes it as having a "bit of colorful gypsy charm" and that hits the nail right on the pretty head.
"Fairytale weddings are made at the Grand Hotel." Said by the bride, and truer words have never been spoken. For those of you who are naive to the magic that is Mackinac Island, we've got today's wedding to bring you into the loop. The little island has no cars, just bikes and horses. It's filled with gorgeous beaches, stunning views, and a hotel so grand, it is enough to inspire a wedding this gorgeous. You won't want to miss...
I still remember the very first bouquet I put together as a little girl. It was a gorgeous mix of wild flowers, cosmos, greenery and billy ball. That was the moment I fell in love with flowers and every year since, I look forward to spring and summer for that reason, those beautiful blooms. We've fallen for many a pretty petal here on SMP, and today we're getting the detailed breakdown of three gorgeous bouquets we're crushing on from...
Springtime gardens in Provence. Memories of that magical place and time is what fueled the creative fire behind this absolutely stunning inspiration shoot. Does it get any better than that? I don't think so. The whole thing is be-yond. Beyond amazing, beyond beautiful. Beyond. Captured phenomenally by Naomi Kenton Photography, this is a gallery I would do...
Being a wedding blogger has put a few super gorgeous spots on my radar, but it doesn't get dreamier than Ojai Valley Inn and Spa. Ojai is just filled with perfect light and romance for days. It's ones of those locales that are totally made for a pretty, pretty soiree like this one. Kim Fox Photography captured the dreamy light and the handsome couple, and we've filled up...
We don't feature a lot of boudoir shoots on SMP, but that doesn't mean we don't love them. When a super classy, super gorgeous one comes our way, we blush just a little and then insist on putting it on the blog to inspire your inner brave girl. You see, we absolutely adore seeing strong, beautiful women owning it. So obviously, we love Elizabeth Craig Intimates. She's like every girl's best friend... helping them own it - in...
If there is one thing we love here at SMP, it's a pretty wedding. And we're seeing more and more pretty soirees coming our way out of Big Sky Country, due largely in part to Leslie Lukas Weddings & Events. She takes the natural beauty that is Montana, bottles it up, mixes in a little of her own special love, and sprinkles it all over weddings like this from...
New Zealand is a little magical, isn't it? Maybe it's because I'm almost always seeing it through the eyes of a couple in love, but I'm convinced it's got that special something. And when a wedding film comes our way from bubblerock, filled to bursting with so much love, joy, laughter, and that magical something, it's a good day indeed. [iframe http://player.vimeo.com/video/57119491 600 338] From the beautiful bride ...
As we part for yet another (hopefully) wedding-filled weekend, I wanted to take a minute to wet your whistle for tomorrow morning. In case you didn't know, Saturday mornings are one of our favorites here on the Little Black Book Blog. Not only do we get to sleep in a little and take in our morning dose of pretty with a side of pajamas, but that dose of pretty comes in the form of a fantastic wedding film. We've got the emotion, you bring the tears. And tomorrow, we're featuring the wedding which...
If you logged on looking for something fabulous today, you're in luck. You can thank STAK Photography for this one. It's a brilliantly gorgeous fall wedding that is going to warm your heart and break out your biggest smile. It's all stunning autumn colors here and happy, happy love there. Cute shoes and cakes so delish. And the best part is...
