Vermont Vows Magazine

Last Thursday this couple drew inspiration for their engagement shoot from a deserted ghost town they stumbled upon in Arizona while traveling throughout the west. Utilizing the classic simplicity of the western background, the couple’s character shines through.

Happy Friday, lovelies! This week, we've got a fantastic giveaway for you - a custom dress sketch by Lisa Murley of Dress Sketch.

Our favorite vendor of elegant, graceful tents implemented yet another component of their business that makes us love them even more. Announced recently on their blog, Sperry Tents has successfully completed the installation of solar panels on the roof of their Rochester, Massachusetts headquarters!

With summer upon us, all our our autumn brides-to-be have their wedding planning well underway. That's why we thought that this bouquet of the day was beyond perfect. Inspired by the rich colors of fall, this beautiful combination of fresh flowers is bold, vibrant, and utterly chic.

This DIY project was created by Jen Gawler of Pokeberry Ink Press, a boutique stationery designer who works with brides to create totally custom wedding stationery with a unique, eclectic, and vintage style. This cute project involves creating and hanging tags that can be strung from a vase or jar holding messages and well-wishes for the bride and groom and can easily be used as your guest book. All of these lovely photographs were taken by Hilton Pittman Photography.

We love Winter weddings, and even though warm weather is upon us, we want to highlight the sweet details of this lovely wedding. The warm shoes, vintage cake topper and charming hanging place cards, all captured elegantly by Landwehrle Photography, created a cozy and welcoming celebration for this lucky couple. 

We simply love this stunning bouquet by Silver Toad Floral Design! It embraces the vibrant hues of summer, while still incorporating crisp white tones that are classic and sophisticated. So pretty, chic, and cheerful - we have to name it "Bouquet of the Day"!

Brides who attended the 2011 Hamptons Wedding Affair were certainly in for a treats - The Cotton Bride provided some simply stunning gowns for a runway show of fabulous bridal couture. We couldn't have been happier with the results of the show - it was a fantastic way to conclude the event while serving brides with fresh fashion inspiration sure to influence their own wedding day looks.

Winter weddings never fail to tug a little on our heartstrings. It may be that they're indoors - and therefore often more intimate - than outdoor wedding celebrations, or the simple fact that candlelight is a winter wedding-must. Whatever the reason, cold weather weddings are always gorgeous and this particular one by Spencer Leonard Photography just helps demonstrate that. If you're planning a wedding during the summer of 2012, consider, even just for a moment, the idea of a winter celebration.

We love this wedding for its elegant style and modern flair. Not only do this bride and groom absolutely nail a classically sophisticated look, they also jazz things up with a bold, orange cake creation and beautiful overall decor in shades of soft peach and cream.

Though they had to travel over 8, 032 miles just to meet each other, Iohanna and Bruno Nicenboim couldn't be happier. While the two are both from Argentina they didn't meet until their families moved to Israel and they began studying Hebrew. After spending three years living in different cities, the two moved in to an apartment together and have been inseparable ever since.
