I love that this year is leap year! Just an extra day in February for us to feature more gorgeous Real Weddings. This month as we’re rounding up the highlights, we have Whitney, Sierra and myself going through and picking the details that just make us swoon!

FAVORITE WEDDING DRESS: Sierra loves lace (who doesn’t?) and Whitney’s v-neck dress won Sierra’s heart. For me, lace in the form of Audrey’s gorgeous low back dress and a pretty sash took my vote. For Whitney, it was the ruffly goodness of Darcy’s darling gown!

FAVORITE BRIDESMAID DRESS: Although the ladies dressed in pink and purple were not all Valerie’s bridesmaids, they still made a stunning mix-and-match bunch, in my opinion! Whitney was a big fan of Darcy’s ‘maids in their versatile taupe frocks and Sierra loved Audrey’s bridesmaids in ivory.

FAVORITE FEMALE ACCESSORY: Y’all know I never let a handkerchief pass my attention! I loved the embroidered ones at Darcy + John’s wedding. Blair’s gold bow pumps made Sierra swoon and the feathered parasol Whitney carried during the second line couldn’t be beat for Whitney.

FAVORITE MENSWEAR: Sierra was a fan of the mini checked and embroidered ties at Darcy + John’s wedding. I loved the tuxes that the men at Blair + Luke’s wedding sported, along with the single white blooms as their boutonnieres! Whitney picked a crowd pleaser when she spotted Jordan’s suit, spiffy tie and wild boutonniere.

FAVORITE DETAIL: We don’t blame Whitney at all for loving the quilt-draped swing at Sydney + Lucas’s wedding. Perfectly framed by white drapes, we could lay there all day! Sierra had beach on her mind and thought Valerie + Kevin’s sand dollar escort cards were darling! I, on the other hand, could not take my mind off of Blair + Luke’s bold reception tent and checked dance floor!

FAVORITE CEREMONY: The manicured lawn and white chairs at Blair + Luke’s ceremony appealed to Whitney’s fresh taste and classic style. I loved Whitney + Nick’s sunny ceremony — complete with NOLA flags! Sierra was completely taken with Audrey + Jordan’s outdoor wedding underneath a giant tree and a handmade altar.

FAVORITE BOUQUET: The all-white bouquets that Valerie and her ‘maids carried were a favorite of Whitney’s. I loved the soft colors and not-too-perfect shape of Audrey’s bouquet. Sierra chose Blair’s lush bouquet with pretty pops of green leaves.

FAVORITE SWEET: Darcy + John’s ruffly and textured cake was a win in Whitney’s opinion. I could not stop staring at Audrey + Jordan’s mini pecan pies! Adorable. Sierra was smitten with Sydney + Lucas’s simple white cake with a rustic and sweet topper.

FAVORITE PHOTO: Who could resist loving the fun photo from Whitney + Nick’s wedding? It sure stole Sierra’s heart. For me, the sweet dance moment between Sydney + Lucas pulled at my heart strings. Of course, no one could pass up a fun confetti photo! Whitney loved the festive pink and red at Blair + Luke’s wedding!

I’m not quite sure why, but every time I start writing a Monthly Round-Up post, I feel compelled to start with an ode to that month, sometimes even a haiku. Thankfully, I refrain and save you dear readers from the pain of my awful poetry and instead, just present you with the pretty pictures and sweet details that make our hearts go pitter-patter.

This time around, we have Emily, Marissa and Sierra here with their highlights from the past month’s Real Weddings.

FAVORITE WEDDING DRESS: Lacy and feminine details were on our minds this month. Emily was immediately taken with Turner’s lacy Monique Lhuillier dress. Always a fan of classic details, Marissa chose Suzanne’s sweetheart-necked and bejeweled gown. Sierra was wowed by Holly’s delicate lace gown.

FAVORITE BRIDESMAID DRESS: Holly + Chase’s wedding made an impression with Sierra. She loved Holly’s dress and the bridemaids’ ivory frocks. Marissa, on the other hand, was head over heels for Turner’s ‘maids’ ruffle-sleeved navy dresses. With a shot of pink, Shelley’s pink bridesmaids rose to the top of Emily’s highlights.

FAVORITE FEMALE ACCESSORY: The timeless cut and setting of Elise + Matt’s wedding bands was Sierra’s favorite accessory. Marissa and Emily, however, were all about bows and shoes, choosing Shelley’s pink Kate Spade pumps and Turner’s Nina heels, respectively.

FAVORITE MENSWEAR: For Emily, it was Chase’s smart grey suit and black bow tie that sealed the deal. For Marissa, it was Matt’s formal black tux. For Sierra, nothing was better than Southern men in khaki suits like Chad’s groomsmen.

FAVORITE DETAIL: We love a good ole tradition ’round these parts. That must be why Emily thought the family wedding bells at Alex + Paul’s wedding was sweet and joyous! Marissa thought Shelley’s monogrammed and flower-adorned tote bag was too adorable and Sierra was smitten with Alli + Chad’s sweet reception tables under the trees.

FAVORITE CEREMONY: We love seeing couples say their vows in places of meaning. Marissa (and all of us for that matter), marveled at the beautiful chapel Suzanne + Sean were married in. Emily was a fan of Alli + Chad’s custom made altar set-up and Sierra thought Turner + Forrest’s church ceremony was oh so sweet.

FAVORITE BOUQUET: Cotton mixed with beautiful white blooms? Of course this arrangement from Turner + Forrest’s wedding caught Sierra’s attention. Emily loved the big pink flowers that filled Shelley’s bouquet, while Marissa was taken with the “blush and bashful” bouquet that Britt carried down the aisle — lace ribbon is a bonus, no doubt.

FAVORITE SWEET: We can never go through a Monthly Round-Up without bringing some attention of our favorite sweets. Elise + Matt’s Krispy Kreme favors was a winner in Emily’s book. It was Shelley + Greg’s bow-adorned white cake that took Sierra’s heart, though, and Suzanne + Sean’s navy patterned cake for Marissa.

FAVORITE PHOTO: And now for one of my favorite categories! The image of Holly and her ‘maids snug in bed together reminded Emily of her sisters. Marissa loved the image of Turner and her attendants and family praying before the ceremony. Sierra put the cherry on top with an adorable photo from Alli + Chad’s wedding.
