Real Wedding : a beaming bride and a beachside affair

Despite the threats of oil, today's couple Katie and Keith came down from Chicago to have a gorgeous wedding at the Sandestin Hilton Resort. Their wedding was beautifully captured by Destin wedding photographer, Mari's Paradise Images.

I just think the photo below is so special - it captures the true emotion of the happy couple and I just love how excited the bride is. Super cute.

Thank you so much Mari for sharing the lovely beachside wedding of Katie and Keith with my readers today. To see more from Mari's Paradise Images, please visit her web site and blog.

Real Wedding : yellow & blue, it's a relaxed and fun summer wedding

Today's royal blue and yellow wedding, photographed by Leslie Roark Photography, is the perfect summer color combination - especially if you're marrying beachside, like Kristen and John were. Today's bride and groom wanted a relaxed, fun, summer-ish feel to their wedding and yellow seemed to be the perfect summer color to start with. But, Kristen knew she wanted colored, funky shoes so she decided that royal blue would work perfectly with the yellow and add that "pop" to her shoes she was looking for. And, I love a couple that just wants their guests to come and have a good time to celebrate the beginning of their marriage and new life together. After all, isn't that what it should be about? Marrying the one you love and celebrating with all your friends and family?

Real Wedding : an intimate spanish-traditional backyard affair

So happy to share today's wedding with you and I'm honored to be able to give Mariana of Kismis Ink Photography in Tampa, FL her first wedding blog feature. Today's wedding of Katherine and Manuel was an intimate backyard ceremony and reception that was held at the home of the groom's mom. According to Mariana, the wedding day was hurried, spanish-traditional with lots of family-lovin. Due to this, Mariana knew she didn't have time to get the bride and groom alone for some romantic photos, so she pre-scheduled a day-after session. {those photos are coming up in a little bit, so stay tuned}.

Thank you so much Mariana for sharing this beautiful intimate wedding with my readers today.

Real Wedding : a Green and White Seaside Affair

Today's beautiful Inlet Beach, Florida wedding of Shantell and Matthew was photographed by Beach Bum Photography. I just love the green and white color palette with the subtle touches of the seashell motif. The seashell embellished pail holding the programs is so cute. The green and white colors are so calming together and just perfect for the seaside spring wedding.

Thank you Jessica for letting me share this wedding with my readers today. To see more from Jessica and her husband David of Beach Bum Photography, please visit their web site and blog.

Real Wedding : Gorgeous Decor . . . Bling and Feathers

Today's beautiful November wedding of Kyle and Montina was photographed by Jessica and David of Beach Bum Photography in Florida. I've fallen in love with the details from this wedding. The feathers, the crystals, the gorgeous aqua fabric, the candle holders and more. And, just wait until you see the kids table, wow.

The monogrammed aisle runner was created by the bride's mom. And, the bride created many of the items used for the wedding.

Isn't this the best kids table? How lucky are the children that got to sit here, love it.

Such a great ending shot for a gorgeous wedding. Congratulations Kyle and Montina.
