You guys are in for such a treat today. I am madly in love (and although I throw that around quite often, I really do mean it) with this SMP reader's wedding. Danielle and her husband were married on a gorgeous old farm in Georgia... The pair were married underneath a 200 year Oak tree in front of a beautiful lake, in a stunning Rustic Chic style.Danielle was on a budget and STILL managed to pull off this lovely wedding. I have more pictures and brilliant details coming, so stay tuned!... |
You guys know how much I love inspiration boards. Such a great way to bring your vision into one, cohesive place. To see how an inspiration board translates into a real wedding is just about as good as it gets for me. So, when Maya sent me the pictures from her recent wedding, I swooned. Way back in March of 2007, we created this inspiration board for Maya, who was looking for help designing her Muslim/Indian/Pakistani inspired wedding... And THIS is how her real wedding turned out! All photographs by Marisa Holmes Congratulations Maya on an absolutely beautiful day! The vibrancy... |
I wanted to write a quick follow-up to yesterday's Wedding Paper Divas feature. One of our readers, Anna, sent me a pic of the invitations that she ordered from the site that ultimately inspired the details for her entire wedding! Here are the finished invitations... The green and black is SO smart, so sophisticated. Anna did an absolutely beautiful job carrying this palette through her entire wedding... all photos by Ann Hamilton Anna used the words Rustic, Modern and Chic to define her wedding style and she articulated her vision to perfection.Anna has set up a bio site that docu... |

I am so excited to show you today's real wedding...not only because it's simply a gorgeous affair, but also because I get to introduce you to the bride, Kim Gray...a stylist who has provided hours of inspiration for me since she first introduced herself a few weeks ago!

I have to say, my favorite posts are those where loyal SMP readers are featured. Whether it's an inspiration board or a color a palette, a real wedding or simply an Ask Abby question, I love the sense of community that we are building here on Style Me Pretty. One of our readers, Nole, emailed me back in January with questions about her upcoming wedding. It turns out that Nole's wedding went off without a hitch and she has generously offered to share some pictures and details with us! photography by Punam Bean Photography Details from Nole... My husband and I met in grad school ... |
People always ask me how I choose the weddings that are featured on SMP. And to be honest, I don’t really have a good answer. I write about those that I love…whether it’s a particularly unique style, a great color palette or simply a feeling that I get when I look through the pictures. And, that is exactly why I am posting today’s wedding…there is just something so wonderful about this elegant, oh-so-British, garden style affair. Before I show you all of the beautiful details, I thought these pictures of the bride getting ready were absolutely gorgeous… All of the absolutely, tear... |
I have the prettiest wedding to show you guys today! It was sent to me by the incredibly talented Amanda of Amanda Kraft Photography, with flowers designed by Donna at Beautiful Blooms. The details of this wedding are absolutely perfect and to me, it's one of those weddings that people are still talking about...From Amanda... Scott Eby and Kate Bilo met on Kate's first day of work at AccuWeather in 2003. Kate had taken an administrative assistant job right out of college, and Scott's first words to her were "you should look into being on TV - they're always looking for... |
This morning I had an interview with Morning Living on Martha Stewart Radio and the girls were chatting all about Spring...those first perfect signs of Spring that let you know it's time to put away your boots and break out your pretty little dresses. So of course, when I saw this May wedding that was sent to me by Mindy at Cotton Idea Studio, I was in looooove. all photos by Trevor Hoehne Aren't the pink hues paired with the chocolate dresses just gorgeous? And that banquet table with the perfect small arrangements lining the table...STUNNING. The coolest thing about this wedding... |
