Fathers' Day with ALP's Favorite Dads

Today more than ever we want to give a little extra love to all of the amazing dads, father figures, and dads-to-be that we’ve met over the years!

Wedding days are that much more special because of these wonderful men and all the love and guidance they bring our couples on their big days and beyond! We love getting to see all of the father-daughter first looks (and even a few flower girl and groom first looks with our grooms who are already lucky enough to be dads!), those emotional walks down the aisle, and of course parent dances during receptions.

Cheers to all the incredible fathers out there, our world is that much better because of your love and kindness!

Mother's Day with ALP's Wedding Day Mamas

If there’s one group of amazing women we appreciate more than anything, its all the incredible mamas out there! For us, Mother’s Day is the perfect excuse to celebrate these incredible women, but honestly we want to make all of the mothers in our lives feel extra special everyday!

Due to all of our pretty weddings and elopements, we’ve met some beyond wonderful mamas. From mothers of the brides and grooms, to stepmoms, to mother-in-laws, to grandmothers to mother figures, we’ve witnessed so many angelic women make wedding days that much more beautiful with their love, compassion, and light.

Our team is made up of a strong group of gals and many double as badass mamas as well. We’re in awe of the mothers we’ve met on wedding days and the mothers we have in our very own lives. Cheers to being surrounded with so many stellar women, today and every single day of the year!

Bridal Inspo - Bridal Hair and Makeup

If there’s one thing everyone knows about us its that bridal glam never ever fails to absolutely blow us away every single wedding day. Not only are we always in awe over our angelic brides, we’re beyond inspired by the amazing teams of makeup artists and hair styles that make bridal dreams come true!

Although wedding trends and details may change, season after season bridal glam is something that remains a true classic, no matter what a bride’s vibe may be. Whether its a natural beauty look with soft tones, a bold makeup statement with a stand-out lipstick , a classic updo , or a simple, messy-glam bun, all of our brides look like goddess when they walk down the the aisle (and for the rest of their wedding days)!

We can’t help but be major fans of some of our industry besties who make all the hair and makeup magic happen time and time again. We’re beyond lucky to capture the artistry of these talented babes!!!!!

Wedding Inspo - A Whimsical Backyard Wedding

Have you ever seen a wedding that looked and felt like an absolute movie from start to finish? One where the couple is dreamy, the details are amazing, and every last piece of the day is just pure perfection? Well, that’s what we were treated to last fall and we can’t stop obsessing over all the pretty little parts of this day!

If there’s one way to our hearts, it’s through killer bridal style and this day was filled with it. A stunning sheath gown from Bridal Elegance by Darlene, moody fall florals from Agave Florist, and gorgeous makeup by our gal Kata Baron, made this bride absolutely radiant. Our lovers not only made our dreams come true with golden hour romantics to die for, but they also included special touches like a vintage mint-colored trunk, a mini confetti toss, and a backyard swing!

To top it all off, these babes had the most magical reception with a little help from Just Lovely Weddings and Darling Details Rentals. From a tent adorned with sparkling star lanterns to hand painted tiles for table numbers to one of the coziest fall lounge situations we’ve ever seen, we’re forever wishing we could just live in this day forever!

Cheers to more beautiful wedding days that turn into awe-inspiring nights, we’re so here for all the beauty!
