Seriously, some of the most amazing set of pictures I have ever seen. All done by the amazing talent over at Steep Street. Enjoy!

How cool are these Save-the-dates? You can check out more from Jeff and Stacey’s shoot on the Steep Street blog.

Brides, Stacy of You Can’t Take it With You and Kelly of Miss Pug’s Pawfect Wedding started The Pissed Off Bride blog, for well… some royally Pissed Off Brides.

Here is an excerpt from their ‘About’ Section:

Everyone has someone they’d like to tell off – but this site is for the pissed off brides out there.

Did a baker completely screw up your wedding cake? Write them a letter here – as unprofessional as you’d like.

Your great-aunt decide that the dress she’ll be wearing to your wedding will be… white? Tell us how you really feel.

It doesn’t matter if you got engaged 3 minutes ago (and already are considering eloping) or got married 30 years ago (and still harbor hefty resentments) – this site is for you. So stop ripping out your hair! Spill your guts, breathe a sigh of relief, and anonymously commiserate with like-minded women everywhere.

The Pissed Off Bride

The post that was up there today is a Pissed off Bride who is tired of getting calls from David’s Bridal, and tired of receiving their copious amount of catalogs in the mail. I can’t help but laugh, because what she says is so true. Whether you need to vent something that has bothered you for days, months, or years, or you just need a plain old laugh, head over to The Pissed Off Bride Blog… it is bound to have you saying “OMG… that really happened?…. She did WHAT?” And… can put your own wedding planning in perspective.

I have yet to submit anything to The Pissed Off Bride blog… but if I had… I wouldn’t tell you, now would I?  :-)

I love her hair and makeup (very similar to how I want to do my hair and makeup on our wedding day) and her bridesmaid dresses are very similar to my lady’s dresses. I just love the whole look. Check our Mrs. Cowboy’s sweet wedding. All images by Tec Petaja Photography

Ahh.. Why do most grooms act like they are 14 years old when you take them in public? :-)

Strange… this dress looks a lot like Miss Gator’s dress (but isn’t!). Could be why she loves this picture so much!  Is it weird I’m talking about myself in the third person??? maybe. :-)

I’m just having a very obsessed week over here in the Gator Bride World. :-)

Okay, so here’s the deal with the Weekly Obsession. Everyday I see incredible images that I absolutely love and inspire me, yet they don’t fit nice and neatly into posts on my blog. So instead of them sitting on my desktop for weeks (waiting patiently to fit into a post), I will be posting them as a Weekly Obsession (or daily? who knows!).

Chic Bride and Groomsource Once Wed

Absolutely love this bride and groom. Mr. Knight would look sooooo amazing in this suit. He knows I love him in straight leg jeans (wide leg… no thank you), and he would look amazing in a more slim-line suit. ahhh.. the possibilities, only… you wouldn’t catch Mr. Knight dead in a skinny tie, and upon seeing this entry he will probably veto this look all together but hey…. a bride can dream.
