I'm a big fan of any kind of 'bar' at a wedding... we've seen lots of nifty ideas in years past—from flower bars to donut bars, they're always crowd pleasers! Today's...
"Hayley Paige"
Does anyone else feel like the mauve is the new blush? Give me a big ol' yes in the comments if so! And I'm not mad about it, at all. This pretty little soiree from Dear Lovers and White Blossom Events is further proving my theory is true. Paired with soft rose, al fresco portraits and blooms galore by City Flower LA, it's a feminine fete for the...
It's not often that we see a wedding take place in the same exact spot that the proposal happened. But considering that location was Four Seasons Resort Ko’ Olina for this Bride & Groom, it was a no brainer. With the help of Moana Events, Alex and Steve celebrated in a sea of the prettiest pinks overlooking the water and with palm trees singing the sweetest whispers. If Hawaii is on your wedding...
I urge you to read the Bride's beautifully written story first, before experiencing Joel Serrato's stunning images. She brings us along their journey from proposal to I do and makes you truly feel as if you were a guest in their mountainside celebration.
Set at Old Bethany, a white-washed wedding venue just outside of Waco, Jacob and Julia celebrated their love with those nearest and dearest to them. And after only one look at this wedding gallery from Ashlen Sydney and I could instantly hear...
If you take a moment to get up close and personal with this wedding from Britt Rene (I highly recommend you do), and read the Bride's story, you will find little details tucked into every corner. Some things old (Grandmother's vintage purse and handkerchief) and some things new (hello, pretty Hayley Paige number!), and so many things planned with...
Planning a wedding is somewhat like buying a house... the idea of it is exciting, the process quite challenging, you will most likely not check off everything on your wishlist, but in the end, it's the happiest day ever. Having gone through both experiences before, if there is any advice I can impart on you: choose your top three. The three things that you cannot do without. For me, it will always be blooms, backdrop (venue) and photography. Today's fete from...
A few months ago I mentioned on instagram that Pippin Hill in Charlottesville was my favorite wedding venue in the world. That's a big deal. Because I see a whoooole lot of wedding venues around here. But, when it comes to Pippin Hill, there is no comparison. Knowing the owner, Lynn Easton, also means that I understand the care and thoughtfulness that went into to the planning, designing and maintaining of such a...

Although this is a styled editorial shoot, it was as close to the real deal as you can get.

From the Bride... As a little girl, I always dreamed of getting married in the Flagler Museum in Palm Beach, Florida. This Gilded Age mansion was once Henry Flagler's wedding gift to his wife. Once Oliver and I looked at it together, we knew, immediately that it was the place for us. With the help of an amazing team of vendors... ...
Thank you so much to Simply Sarah for taking over our editorial today! We started with a GORGEOUS Rain-Filled Southern Wedding, then moved on to...
This is what summer weddings are all about my friends. Braids and beach waves, flowy Jenny Yoo bridesmaids, sunsets that warm the soul, al fresco dining... and smiles for days. Just for starters. Kari Rider Events crafted a day that suits these two to a T. I don't...
The most exciting shot of a wedding (and one that I'm sure is intense for most wedding photographers) is the ceremony exit. It's also one of my favorite moments of a wedding day—and couples like these two, are exactly why. Their pure joy jumps off the page, and Lauren Fair captured that moment with such care. It's just one...
I'm sure that my experience in seeing a wedding is similar to yours. There is always one thing that my eyes gravitate to, that just makes the wedding seem personal. When I first saw this wedding, it wasn't the details, while gorgeous of course thanks to Beijos Events. It wasn't the cake or the...
Not too long ago we interviewed Sara from onelove photography about 'natural light photography' and featured the chat on SMP (right here). It's kind of no wonder that we publish her weddings pretty often on the Little Black Book Blog! Today's wedding - at the...
Kestral Park is a magnificent gem in Santa Barbara, California and sprawls over 100 acres of the most beautifully manicured grounds you've ever seen - complete with an orchard, a guest house and a tree-lined path to the sweetest horse stables. It also just happened to be the idealic backdrop for Kristy and Jared's classic celebration, photographed flawlessly by Tenth & Grace and planned to perfection by...
Sarah + Matt met about three years ago at Detroit’s St. Andrews Hall during a show Matt was playing in. Sarah was on a date with another guy and when Matt set eyes on her, he did everything he could to get her attention. Their relationship was long distance for much of their time dating and August 2016 Matt proposed in a hot air balloon ride. Their winter wedding was on another level! From...
We've seen plenty of delightful details at weddings but these just might take the cake. A beer and bubbles bar complete with a variety of toppings (...
