Goodies for the Guests

Holly and Andrew have a super fun story, and while I don’t want to spill all of the beans just yet, let’s just say these two are true high school sweethearts. When she told me they were going to do their engagement shoot not far from where we live (oh yeah, did I mention Holly’s […]

Holly + Andrew: Engaged! {Birmingham, Alabama engagement session with AL Weddings}

There are two vital parts that go into getting married. First, the boy has to ask. Second, the wedding and then…boom! Marriage. Quite often I get sucked into all the fun little aspects of the actual wedding. Yes, that is a huge part but what about the engagement?! The engagement is the giddy, no stress phase. […]

Engagements

Recently I have gotten the privilege of being a bridesmaid in some of my dearest friends weddings. Little did I know, the bride and groom usually buy the bridal party a gift. I always thought the gift was just being able to be a small part of their special day, but often there is more. I’ve seen […]

Wedding Party Gifts

Happy happy Friday! Earlier this week I was in class (on Pinterest…cough cough) and kept stumbling upon the most stunning photos of weddings. The pictures that grabbed my attention the most were what I like to refer to as, the “getaway” photos. It’s what happens at the end of every wedding when the blissful bride […]

The Getaway

Different fonts, different colors and different paper. That’s right y’all, I’m talking about stationery. Whether it’s the invitations or the programs, the styles all vary, keeping me wanting more. Some brides go the more traditional route and stick with the beautiful cursive, while others are trying the calligraphy look. Personally I am fan-girling over the calligraphy! One […]

Stationery

Believe it or not, but flower crowns are very in and I’m actually quite excited about it. Brides are getting more creative these days with how they are incorporating flowers in their special day. The flowers are going to their heads, literally. Whether it’s an inside or outside wedding, I have seen some of the most […]

Flower Crowns

Lindsey and Burke’s wedding was all things classic and we really loved it. We first met Lindsey in January, just days after her engagement, and planning went in to full swing to pull off a big, family oriented, June wedding. A few things were a given after sitting down with her and her sister, Mary […]

Lindsey and Burke: A Classic Summer Birmingham Wedding {Avon Theater | Birmingham, Ala.}

It’s officially September people and that means fall is headed our way! The fall has always been my favorite season for so many reasons, but one specifically is because of all the colors! Ah, the deep, muted colors that show up in bouquets in the fall are what I watch for in weddings . Many of the fall […]

Fall Flowers

So, I’m kind of in love with this downtown Birmingham engagement session. Not to mention the couple and photographers, Rachel and Noah Ray, too. Engagement sessions are such a fun option for the soon-to-be Mr. and Mrs. to connect with their photographer prior to their wedding as well as a fantastic way to capture this season […]
