Southern Weddings

We have some big news this week! Many thanks to feedback from y’all, everyone who filled out our annual survey, and our own brainstorms about making Southern Weddings the very best it can be, a few things are changing around here!

Starting next week, we are launching a brand new series: Southern Newlywed! Every Friday, we’ll be sharing fun posts aimed at our sweet readers who have tied the knot, but aren’t quite ready to stop their regular visits to Southern Weddings :) We are SO excited about what we have up our sleeves for this series, and we can’t wait to share. And don’t worry–if you miss any posts during the week, you’ll still be able to find them in the Weekly Round-Ups, which are scooting to Saturday. That’s all I’ll say for now, but be sure to check back next Friday for the first Southern Newlywed post!

This week’s Facebook Friday engagement session is by our lovely Blue Ribbon Vendor, Robyn Van Dyke. Go take a look on our Facebook page–as well as this adorable dog, there are really cute farm animals involved! :)

Last week on Southern Living, we explained the Southern tradition of house parties. They’re a wonderful way to honor friends without having a giant bridal party! Read more here.

Catch up on this week’s features!

We admired the loveliest Lowcountry oyster broil rehearsal dinner.

We love real weddings!

After meeting at a country dance group, it was only natural that Hannah and Kyle filled their wedding with country-inspired details.
Leanna had always dreamed of being married at Lowndes Grove Plantation, and her dream came true when she and Ike said “I do!”

Have a wonderful weekend!
