Exciting things are happening over here in the Southern Weddings office, y’all! The gorgeous images that have been flowing into our office from completed shoots are being placed on the page (after much agonizing over which photos to choose!), we just completed our final two shoots for V5, and, oh yes, I’m getting married in less than two weeks!! (Okay, so that last one is not exactly SW related, but I had to throw it in there!)

With our excitement about V5 just about boiling over, we decided it was high time to release the digital edition of V4, our 2011 issue. Of course, you can still pick up a copy right here (though I will warn you supplies are dwindling!), but now, you can see the whole shebang online, as well! Click here to see the complete digital edition of Southern Weddings V4!

Before V5 steals the spotlight, we wanted to share our favorite features one more time, especially for those of y’all who might not have been around when V4 debuted. Be sure to check out all of these spreads and more in the editorial gallery!

Marissa, our Southern fashion fiend, chose the Paper, Cotton, and Flour shoot. She has great memories of the shoot day, and loved how everything turned out! She also was (understandably) enamored with the seersucker dress!

Joey and Jessica

Nicole, our lover of bright color, chose the “punch shoot” (as we like to call it) for her favorite. I love that she said she almost stuck it on her bulletin board, but couldn’t bear to tear it out!

Braedon Photography

Lara opined that it was “SO hard to choose a favorite” (true), but eventually settled on the Williamsburg shoot. The said the image of the peanut poppers is one of her favorite Southern Weddings images ever, which is high praise from the woman who’s seen every Southern Weddings image there is!

Katie Stoops

Finally, I chose our South Carolina polo shoot as my favorite. It makes my heart happy every time I see those bold green and white striped skirts show up on Pinterest or another site! (And trust me, they’ve shown up everywhere — we haven’t done a scientific study, but if I had to guess, I would say that was the most popular image from all of V4!)

A Bryan Photo

Gorgeous, all of them! And before you go, just a final note to add that we are thisclose to being sold out of print ads for V5 (whoo!). To finish us off in grand style, we’ve decided to offer a bonafide piece of V4 memorabilia — a perfectly patterned bow tie — to the first five vendors/companies to book their print ad! Get in touch with Marissa (marissa at iloveswmag.com) to reserve your spot ASAP!

As some of you may know, the Southern Weddings gals moved into a new office back in May. We’re pretty well settled in at this point, but if you can believe it, we still don’t have much on our walls! That’s pretty much a travesty for visual people like us.

Last week we took the step of buying frames, but now we have to decide what goes in them… and that’s where y’all come in! We need to choose just SIX perfect images from all of the past Southern Weddings shoots and features. SIX. Talk about pressure! We’ve narrowed it down to ten, but would love your help to make the final decision. If you would, please weigh in with your top six from the ten images below — or, if you can’t choose, we’ll just take your one favorite :)

No. 1: A perfectly preppy table shot from our V4 Charleston shoot with A Bryan Photo and Calder Clark (see more here!).

No. 2: Mason jars go champagne sophisticated with help from Jose Villa and Lisa Vorce in this V4 shoot (see more here!).
No. 3: Punch for two? Yes, please! Thanks to Summer Watkins and Braedon Flynn for this beautiful image from a V4 shoot!

No. 4: An epic and oh-so-Southern portrait from a real wedding by Tanja Lippert, originally seen in V4. Look for this wedding to hit the blog soon!

No. 5: A favorite bride + bridesmaid shot from one of our V3 photoshoots with Jose Villa.

No. 6: A gorgeous anemone bouquet (by MG Floral) from one of our V4 real weddings, shot by Melissa Schollaert. See more from Natalia + Levi’s wedding here + here!
No. 7: Oh yes, the seersucker wedding gown. You didn’t think we’d get away without mentioning it, did you? Shot by Veil and Bow for a V4 editorial.

No. 8: We snuck in a little more V3 love with this pretty shot of fresh, Southern beauty from the cover editorial. Thank you, Veil and Bow! See more here.
No. 9: A gorgeous ceremony set-up from our V4 Williamsburg shoot with Katie Stoops and Courtney Spencer.

No. 10: Last but not least, this majestic hot air balloon shot by Jose Villa from a V3 editorial.

So what do you think, ladies and gents? Comment below with your top six prettiest, most Southern picks! And good luck to you — I’m guessing it will be a hard decision!!

    I love 3,4,6,7,8. 3 & 4 for how intimate they are – especially how timeless 4 is. 6 is just so classic. 7… well you can’t get much more southern than seersucker! Except maybe if a bow tie was thrown in. And I love the colors using in 8 between the flower and earrings.

    #1 Because: it’s elegant and sophisticated.
    #4 Because: he’s taking her down a country dirt road! how much more romantic could you get?
    #5 Because: who needs shoes anyway? not southern girls!
    #9 Because: it’s a beautiful outdoor wedding in Old Dominion (Virginia IS for lovers, you know)
    #10 Because: the majestic trees in the background unique to our region.

  39. avatar Coretta’s Elegant Events reply

    Number 5! The lovely bridesmaids and bride. Partly because I remember reading that they weren’t professional models and they look so real, partly because every wedding party should look so awesome and lastly because of the FAB triple strand turquoise Stella & Dot necklace on the left maid that I have and love. http://www.stelladot.com/elegantcoretta

Continuing with our mini engagement session series is this lovely from Braedon Flynn. Doesn’t he do a wonderful job convincing us all that you don’t need a sunny day to have gorgeous photos?

So stylish, you too! Braedon’s also pretty much sold me on the idea of black + white engagements. What do you think?

    The black and white doesn’t do it for me. I mean, they are beautiful pictures and beautiful people but it seems too glamourous for me, I want engagement pictures to be realistic and down to earth. Just my opinion though…. :)
