It’s the eve before 2013 and we’re in total reminiscing mode. Sigh.. it’s been a heck of a year with a ton of gorgeous weddings.

There is just so much pretty to share! Ready? Let’s do this!

The bride’s dress swept us away, the photos of the Tuscan backdrop by Lisa Poggi are stunning, the romantic dinner with silver vintage cutlery and those candelabras – yep the entire wedding elegant and enchanting.

Whimsical Palm Springs wedding whimsical Palm Springs wedding

Ok, this Palm Springs wedding designed and coordinated by Bash, Please was just a tad insane. So insane that we had to split it up into three parts! Words don’t do it justice, so click on the photo to take you to the full posts!

DIY Portland wedding

The letterpress invites, bride’s handmade shoes (made by the groom himself!), and freehand silhouette cutting station at this Portland wedding, photographed by Bryan Aulick were so unique and fun that we had to have it on our fave list!

Smogg Shoppe wedding Smogg shoppe wedding Sitting in a Tree knew exactly how to make this bride’s wedding sparkle, and EPlove knew exactly how to capture it all. A whole lot of glitter and a whole lot of pink peonies made this one of our favorite sparkly weddings of the year! And how cool is that instax photo canvas as a guest book?

The combination of the bride’s dress, moody and romantic photography by Dan O’ Day and the perfectly imperfect details of this couple’s venue were breathtaking.

When we found out Taylor Sterling, Founder + Creative Director of The Glitter Guide was getting married and that Edyta Szyszlo would be photographing it, we knew it’d be a fete to remember. It was a stunner, for sure!

Amanda and Tim's wedding

Then there was the memorable wedding of our very own Amanda and her husband Tim, photographed by the amazing Max Wanger! It tops the charts as our fave and we’re still reliving it in our minds today. Sorry we’re teasing you with just this one photo, but it will all be worth the wait come spring when it’s released in Martha Stewart Weddings!
