Southern Weddings Weekly Round-Up

by in Main on

The Southern Weddings office is officially in merry-making mode. (Aren’t we always?) Our Christmas lights are up, our office is home to a little tree, we’ve made many gingerbread barns and we’re ready to send out our ornaments for the Ornament Swap! The only thing we’re missing is snow. Though the recent warm-weather days have us thinking it’s October instead of December, our Twelve Days of Christmas giveaways have us in quite the holiday spirit.

We’re counting down the days until Santa and his reindeer arrive with giveaways. They’re open until Christmas Day, so be sure to enter them all.

Day 1: Perch Paper Company
Day 2: Monogram Works
Day 3: 1 Canoe 2
Day 4: Design Darling
There are many more to come, so keep your eye on the blog!

Our “Definition of a Southern Gentleman” feature from V5 is near and dear to our hearts. We think this shoot is full of the charming and masculine details that remind us of our gents.

We said hello to our newest Blue Ribbon Vendors this week! We’re thrilled to have so many talented members in our listings.

Amidst a bit of bewilderment, we introduced our V5 Collector Edition! Keep an eye out for these (hopefully) rare copies and let us know if you see one.

We’re spreading the holiday joy! Be sure to order V5 in time for Christmas delivery. We think it makes for the perfect stocking stuffer. Want to wrap it up pretty, too? I’ve whipped up some free printable gift tags with Southern charm.

Real Weddings take the cake!

Caroline + John’s classic rose garden wedding was romantic and reminiscent of another family member’s “I do’s.” See it here.

Good news for the weekend!

Searching for the Southern details to make your wedding come alive? Take a look through the Southern Weddings General Store! It’s full of products we love from vendors we love.

We’re just full of the giving spirit! A giant congratulations goes to Abby who won the fab Emily Ley Simplified Wedding Planner! There were so many entries and we’re thrilled that Abby gets to put this to good use.

Hooray for our Yellow Rose of Texas giveaway winners! Elizabeth won the Yellow Rose Tablecloth, Kelly E. won the boy’s bow tie from The Happy Couple, Lorraine won the white suspenders, Samantha won the ring bearer pillow and Taylor won the canary pocket square!

Our Blue Ribbon Bounty giveaway led to a bounty of entries! Congrats to Christy Ann and Taylor who won rings from Mary John, Laura F. and Jillian W., who won the Alexis K Jewels bracelets, Liz, who won the engraved server set from Jagged Edge Designs, Ashleigh, who won the mini cake stand trio from Aedriel Originals, and to Marisa and Audrey who won bracelets from Georgie Jewelry.

If you’re a winner, be on the lookout for an email from us!

Happy wedding weekend to all you belles and beaus ready to walk down the aisle, including our Southern Bride Blogger, Kate. Big hugs to everyone who said “I do” last week, including our Southern Bride Bloggers Briana and Melissa!

Have a happy weekend, y’all!

Southern Weddings Weekly Round-Up

Y’all, the V5 extravaganza is just beginning! We came back from the Thanksgiving holiday feeling so grateful for the love surrounding us right now. V5 may have launched two weeks ago, but the fun reader photos and contributor feedback has kept coming! We want to give a huge hug and THANK YOU to all y’all!

I told y’all we were just beginning! Monday took us back to springtime in the South with the Love in Bloom shoot.

With the new Emily Ley Simplified Wedding Planner now available, we had to jump at the chance to do a giveaway! Enter here.

Virginia proved it’s classic Southern elegance in our Virginia is for Lovers feature from V5.

The Something Old, Something New shoot from V5 was filled with heirloom pieces and thoughtful details.

We love Real Weddings!

Blair + Bryan blew us away with their classic yet glamorous Georgia wedding, full of the family traditions that stole our hearts. See it here.

This news is gooder than grits!

We’re busting out the aprons and getting in the holiday spirit! Join us for our annual Gingerbread Barn Building Competition on Monday.

Tomorrow marks the day that the Clifton Inn begins offering a “Mid-Versary” package for those couples who just can’t wait a full year to celebrate their anniversary — who can, after all? The package includes a relaxing retreat to Clifton with a couples’ cooking class and special dinner by chef Tucker Yoder to toast to 6-months of marriage bliss! Emily’s own minimoon experience there has us convinced that we also need to retreat to Clifton! Check out their site and call in for details.

Jen of Fondly Forever Photography + McKenzie Miller Films are teaming up for a photography and videography giveaway! The talented ladies will be offering free coverage to one lucky couple getting married anywhere in the world in 2013.

When I received my Emily Ley Simplified Planner in the mail not too long after my sister got engaged this summer, I fell in love with the gold corners and the luxurious linen cover and then promptly scheduled a time after work to organize it — dating the pages and deciding what to label the dividers. (Which is, in all seriousness, my idea of fun.) Then I realized, my sister would really appreciate this planner. Maybe even (dare I say?) more than I would. It is, after all, one of the most challenging organizational efforts to plan a wedding, work a full time job and in her case, act as mommy to a pug and schedule time to see her fiance who currently lives in another state. I selflessly surrendered the planner to her as my first act of maid of honor.

Of course, as she tends to do, Emily Ley read the minds of me, my sister and the multiple others who had been waiting for the Simplified Planner for months and created a Simplified Planner dedicated to women who are now happily engaged (and balancing work, friends and family).

It’s full of everything you could want in a planner, but it’s also an important wedding planning tool, full of the documents you need to get the logistics on paper and out of your brainspace. With monthly calendar pages, dividers, sheet protectors for inspiration gathering, contact pages for guests and vendors, a wedding checklist, a budget tracker, a vows worksheet and a seating arrangement worksheet, the Simplified Planner practically plans your wedding for you!

To Enter: There are three ways!
1. Leave a comment below telling us which part of wedding planning you’re most looking forward to.
2. Tweet “I just entered the @EmilyLey Simplified Wedding Planner giveaway on @iloveswmag!” Then, come back here and leave a SEPARATE comment telling us you did so.
3. Like Emily Ley and Southern Weddings on Facebook. Then leave a SEPARATE comment below telling us you did!

Win: The Emily Ley Simplified Wedding Planner!

This giveaway ends December 5 at midnight. Good Luck!!

P.S. The 12 Days of Southern Wedding Christmas is BACK, y’all! Keep an eye out for the giveaway goodness in December!

  9. avatar Sarah Lindsay reply

    The part of my wedding that I am most looking forward to is “the first look!” My fiance and I will be doing a “first look” separate from me walking down the aisle, simple because we will be signing a Ketubah. I am excited to see his face when he sees me for the first time in my dress and knowing that today we will soon be husband and wife.

  12. avatar Sarah Horton reply

    My favorite part of wedding planning has to be a tie between choosing the menu and choosing the invitations. Menu planning is so fun because you get to show your guests your personalities through the food! The invitations are the first thing toset the tone for the wedding so it’s so important that they look amazing!

  13. avatar Paige reply

    Oh my! This lovely item would make all this planning so much easier…beautiful and helpful. I just adore great organization tools…not to mention all the Emily Ley awesomeness!

    I’m most looking forward to planning the decor and theme of our wedding – a gold Christmas! I would love to win this planner because right now I’m working with just a manila folder. I’m planning all of it myself, I work a full-time job at the SC State Museum, and I teach horseback riding lessons on the side, so I clearly need to get my act together! This would be such a welcome gift. Thank you for the opportunity. I love your blog and magazine!

  20. avatar Ashley reply

    The part of wedding planning I am mostly looking forward to is going through each step with my fiancé. I thought he wouldn’t want anything to do with the wedding planning process, but he really enjoys it. With both of us working over 60 hours a week, it is nice to do this together. I love getting his opinions on things and knowing our wedding will be just that… OUR wedding. Happy wedding planning to all the amazing brides out there! :)

    I love love love this planner, so classic! The part of the wedding planning that I am most excited about is pulling all the southern traditions together for celebrating our love for each other! Southern traditions including wearing my mother’s veil, the charms for the cake pull and using the lace off of my grandmother’s dress from 60 years ago for my bouquet wrap! There’s many more, but those are my favorites that I am looking forward to having to plan for our day! O, and of course the cake tastings : )

    I am most looking forward to planning my wedding with my fiance! We were both hospitality majors in college, and so we both enjoy events and anything that goes into them. He wants to be involved, and has done a wonderful job so far! He’s also such a foodie at heart and his favorite part will most likely be booking our caterers and of course taste testing. I am also really looking forward to taking our engagement and wedding pictures to have beautiful moments of my fiance and I to share with everyone.

    I’ve been an intern for three wedding companies– totaling about 2.5 years now. I’m finally getting to plan my first wedding on my own and I think it would be a great gift to give to my first bride. PLUS I think it would help calm my nerves to have everything so perfectly organized for her!

    (I tweeted and “Liked” both pages!) Thanks girls!

    PS… I LOVE LOVE LOVE my V5- My boyfriend and I had been looking for it since the 13th. Literally every night after work we would drive to Publix, Walmart, Walgreens, Barnes and Noble, Harris Teeter, and Target. (Thank goodness they’re all within 10 minutes of each other!!) And for a whole week we had no luck. I just figured it wasn’t coming to my area so I was going to order online.

    I was having a horrible day at work and suddenly got a phone call from my boyfriend saying to come out to the parking lot… I knew he was going for a bike ride in the area so I figured he wanted to just say hi. He rode over a copy of V5 — he called Barnes and Noble (who didn’t have it yet) and then called Target. There was only one copy left there so he had the guy hold it for him… He was pretty embarrassed when he went to pick it up. I must say I had to put it in my car to resist myself from peeking at it during work!

    Long story short– it was well worth the wait and now Brandon is hooked on the mag too!

  122. avatar Luzdary Leest reply

    Our wedding day is in June 2013 in Aruba. I am originally from this island and most of our guests have never been here. This will also be the first event where my family and his family will meet. I look forward to planning not only the wedding but also all activities where both sides of the family and friends will have an amazing time!

    I’m most excited about planning my first wedding after being an intern with three different companies! I think it’d be a great gift to give my first bride to calm both our nerves! But I can’t wait to help pick her theme/ color pallette and stationary!

    Ps. Loving v5– my bf searched stores with me for a week before we could find it! He stopped by my work on his bike to deliver it to me in front of my all women office! He’s truely the best!

    The part of wedding planning that I am most looking forward to is the final result! I cannot wait to see the results of all the hard work!

    I am so excited to begin planning my wedding! I am recently engaged and am most excited about creating a rustic look for my wedding and reception. Many of my family and friends are excited to help and create things to dress up the reception with me as well. This planner would be so helpful to aid in this process!!

    My boyfriend just proposed in front of Cinderella’s Castle! I can’t wait to start planning our fairytale! I’m most looking forward to incorporating details that represent both he and I.

    I am looking forward to everything!! But most of all, getting to plan everything alongside my significant other…that quality time is by far the most precious.

    The best part of wedding planning is getting everything organized in one place – that makes everything easier later!
