Atlanta, GA Wedding Photographer | Allie & Brock

I have never seen a bride more happy to walk down the aisle. Allie squealed of joy as she saw her Brock under the overflowing green arch where they would become man and wife. Allie was also sweetly vocal about how much she loved her SimplyBloom images. I wish I could post her voice-mail thanking us for the photos, and how her and her new hubby teared up re-living the day through the captures. This kind of appreciation is really what makes it all worthwhile, and what we believe makes us the luckiest and most successful.

Allie and Brock are originally from Atlanta, GA however currently live in beautiful L.A. Their classic wedding took place at one of our favorite southern venues right outside Atlanta: The Barnsley Gardens. The bride looked so graceful and couture in her Priscilla of Boston gown and Stuart Weitzman purple pumps, of which we could not get enough of! Brock looked extra sharp in his Calvin Klein suit. Allie’s smile and laughter are undoubtedly contagious. She is a bundle of bubbly happiness, and as you can imagine, on her wedding day, this sparkling happiness shined through that much more. Their wedding had a dash of French class, as well as a sprinkle of southern charm: The apple pie favors, for example, were topped off with custom made DIY tags which read “Merci“. Their wedding cake was a beautiful little jewel, with such craftsmanship and detail. The hints of wild moss combined with lilac blooms, made up the main elements of their unique decor. Allie and Brock are a modelesque couple and such fun to photograph and laugh with.

We want to thank them just as much as they thanked us for their wonderful spirits and for the immense honor of immortalizing such a beautiful and meaningful moment in their lives.

August 30, 2010 - 1:33 pm Happy - I love that you girls are putting up more photos so that we can all see the depth of your beautiful work. However, I do sort of miss the regular blogging method, just because the images are so small in this format, its harder to appreciate and see. (Please don't approve this-its just an FYI)

August 30, 2010 - 1:52 pm Amber - Kept me watching till the end. Love that the images and song where both so addicting. You are both so multi talented!

Wedding Style | Bridesmaids

Happy Friday lovely bloomers! thank you for coming to our site on the best day of the week! Friday entails: shorter work hours, the last few hrs sitting at a desk, time to hang out with friends and family, maybe do a little shopping…oh! hold on a minute!… let’s expand on the shopping portion. Check out some of the most stylish bridesmaids on the world wide web…

Erin the bride, had her best & beautiful gals wear custom designed kelly green dresses. One was more beautiful than the next! The modern silhouettes paired with the romantic ruffles, were the perfect ingredients for unforgettable bridesmaid dresses.

Sarah’s approach to bridesmaid dresses was probably the most rustic chic look. Shades of ivory, rose, white, and eggshell, contrasted so softly with one another to evoke visual euphoria for the romantic in each of us. (Scarves found on Etsy)

And finally, a group of ladies so stylish, we know they will have you at the edge of your seat ready to head out to your local mall. Trang’s girlfriends looked more like couture models than bridesmaids. The varied shdes of purple and grays were modern, stylish and altogether gorgeous. Moreover what was beautiful about these stylish gowns, was the blend of textures! From sequins, to smooth silkls, to beading, ruffles and folds, the ladies could not have looked better… The whole group was a showstopper… (Fabulous dresses by: JCrew, French Connection, Anthropologie, and Banana Republic)

It’s Friday, it’s time to look fabulous; so take the example from these ladies above, head out to your local boutiques, and enjoy some girly time untill you find a dress that makes your knees weak !

August 27, 2010 - 11:52 am Katie - omg! I love every single dress. Such gorgeousness.

August 27, 2010 - 1:41 pm Paloma - The shoes in the first pic and the shawls in the second are incredible! What chic maids!

August 27, 2010 - 8:34 pm FabulousTerrah - Lovely post. :D

August 30, 2010 - 4:12 am Emmalee - Yay! Dresses! Sooo so pretty! I love these photos, so much fun and beauty and style, and such great shots of the girls. I would LOVE to see the front of Sarah's dress though - it looks amazing!

Molly & Mike | Napa Valley Wedding Photography

Molly and Mike had one of the most tasteful events we’ve ever seen. The day commenced with breezy sunshine and concluded under twinkling lights at dusk. Yet so much happened in between. The Wente Vineyards in the hills of nothern California looked especially painterly on Molly and Mike’s wedding day. The entire day flowed as smoothly as the bride floated and glowed about. There were so many elements and moments that made this wedding extraordinary, I will just have to name a few:

The venue : This setting was perfect for a classy, fresh, and carefree atmosphere. You did not have to be a wine connoisseur to be able to recognize how magnificent this winery really is.

The bride and groom: Not ony are Molly and Mike a super sharp looking couple, they are also both zoologist, animal lovers, family lovers, hikers, and altogether great people. no, really!

The emotions: Of course all weddings have a few tears here and there, however this one was especially beautiful in all the emotions it encapsulated. The way Mike was moved by Molly walking down the aisle was an unforgettable moment, even as just an outsider. The drowning love this couple has for one another is palpable.

The details: This one almost deserves subcategories! However let’s just say that no perfect wedding is complete without a few great design and decor details. From the florals, to the bridesmaids’ custom clutches, every little feature seemed carried out with such taste and attention to detail.  The blue hues were not only beautiful, but added a bold touch of class!

Enjoy some of our favorite images:
