Happy August, friends! We hope you’re already enjoying this brand new month–between starting to receive V6 shoot pictures (so much prettiness, y’all!), working on tons of fun features, and sending out darling shop orders, we definitely are! The summer is flying by so quickly, and I can hardly believe I’ve been at Southern Weddings for almost a month. Before diving head first into August, let’s take a look back at how we finished up July!
We started a new summer series this week in which we’re taking turns sharing our “dream Southern summer weddings.” Emily was up first, and her sophisticated, peach-inspired dream wedding had us all wishing for an invite!
Nicole’s birthday was on Wednesday, so naturally, we did our best to fill the office with her signature color! The blog was in on it too, as we rounded up some of our favorite orange weddings.
Y’all loved Kristin’s first Hints for a Happy Marriage post (see it here!), and she was back on the blog this week to share more about her first hint: make laughter happen. Her advice about finding ways to laugh together is so simple, but so amazing!
Our July Southern Bride of the Month, Charlotte, is getting married this weekend, but we couldn’t pass up sharing her adorable middle school romance story and beautiful wedding plans! Be sure to share your last-minute wedding day advice with her here!
We love Real Weddings!
Sara and TJ’s wedding was preppy perfection, complete with a lots of navy and white stripes, monograms, and my personal favorite detail, a bright pink peony bouquet that Sara wrapped in fabric from one of her dad’s old madras shirts! See it here.
I get the biggest smile on my face looking through Kaylie and John’s wedding pictures–they’re all so wonderfully joyful! We all loved Kaylie’s thoughts on wedding planning and marriage as well. See it here.
It’s no secret that I’m dying to go to a wedding in New Orleans someday, but for now, Caroline and Ben’s wedding will hold me over! Marissa said it best when she called their love story a fairy tale, and their wedding could be described the same way. See it here.
Vintage-loving gals especially are sure to fall head over heels for Christy and Rob’s Virginia barn wedding! We also loved their sweet, romantic vows and their inspiring commitment to each other. See it here.
Last but not least!
It’s Facebook Friday, so we’re sharing an engagement session by Stacey Windsor Photography. Don’t miss it!
Much love from the Southern Weddings girls to everyone getting married this week, including our July Southern Bride of the Month, Charlotte!
Have a lovely weekend!
