An Elegantly Modern Wedding from William Innes Photography

Today's wedding of Megan and William from William Innes Photography is simply gorgeous - I love the pink and ivory color palette. Oh, and wait until you see the bride's stunning brooch bouquet - you are going to love it. The touches of crystal bling throughout the wedding add great romantic touches. Plus, I'm definitely a fan of bling and sparkles.

Spectacular Indian Wedding at The Hilton in Pearl River, NY

It doesn't get much better than this wedding to end the week with. It's absolutely stunning and you are going to want to be sure to watch the video which has even more photos {I also love the music with it}. The gorgeous photography and video are by Pavel Shpak Photography.

Time for a wardrobe change :)

In awe of this artistic photograph - sure hope the couple has a large canvas of this one hanging in their newlywed home.

An Elegant Outdoor Purple Wedding of two police officers in Virginia

Today's wedding features the love of Amanda and Sean, both police officers who have now relocated back to the DC metro area, where they originally met while on a temporary job. Three and half years later after a lot of long distance dating, they are now married. Their photographer, Mindy of Ever After Visuals writes . . . "Because of the type of work they do, these two live life to the fullest and treasure each moment - this was clearly evident in their personal vows."
