**UPDATE: 1.may.10: unfortunately smittenxoxo has closed her etsy shop due to medical issues.
if you are looking for gardenias, try this little search to see what's the latest.
i can also highly recommend the gardenia from ericabstudios -- a lovely seller!
I love love love that gardenina hairpiece but the blue bird would be perfect for our blue wedding.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite photographer is Vanessa of photographybyvanessa.com/blog - I appreciate how she combines the snapshot feel of photojournalism in even the most traditional photos.
Wow!! Everything in Smitten's shop is so beautiful. It was hard to choose a favorite because everything was kind of my favorite!
ReplyDeleteI think the the Violets clip was my absolute favorite. (This one: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=33780212) The colors are so amazing! We are having a summer farm wedding and both the gardenia and the violet fit beautifully into our motif.
Whoops, forgot to leave my email address:

The pieces with veils are my favorite. I love the classy/chic look of short veils.
ReplyDeleteI am a big fan of Weeno Photography: they are so fun and fresh. Here is a link to their flickr wedding set: http://www.flickr.com/photos/37047965@N08/sets/72157617255546448/

I love everything in smittenxoxo's shop - and she's Baltimore based like me!
ReplyDeleteI'm currently crushing on Sweet Tea Photography - http://www.lisaoquinn.com/ - the photos are so fun, flirty and quirky.
I love the "Puff" piece- so gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite photographer is Jim Kocis (http://www.jimkocis.com/)- I love his classic portrait photography, with a hint of a candid fun!
.. I forgot too... tsboskenhammond@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteabsolutely beautiful pieces! the ruffle gardenia is my favorite.
ReplyDeletemy favorite photographer is our future wedding photographer of course! when we met with stephen bobb from love life images (http://stephen.lovelifeimages.net/) we knew that he would capture our memories perfectly. his photos have amazing, unique angles that I love. and he has a really adorable son who is v. photogenic!
my email is carolynflorey@gmail.com
I love my photographer Jessica Strickland at www.jessicastrickland.com Her use of color is AMAZING!!
ReplyDeleteI also love love love Smitten's Cream Sunset Peony.
agadiee@aol.com
I love the gardenia, and the off white ranaculus. Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI love J. Garner photography in Seattle. Everyone looks like they're having such a great time in every picture!
I think I plain just ove the gardenia, so simple and pretty. It speaks for itself.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=40873055
My favorite photographer is www.ericamay.com She's an amazing photographer and takes really fun, beautiful pictures. I can't wait to see mine!!!
ReplyDeleteI also love the 'strand of pearls' clip. I've been scouring etsy for hair pieces and this shop is the best!
I love Smittnexoxo. I have been looking at her hair clips since before my engagement!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite photographer would have to be my fiance', but he can't do our wedding pictures (besides he hates dealing with brides like me)! My second favorite would have to be Courtney Herod. He did our engagement photos in Chattanooga, TN and they turned out wonderfully. http://courtneyherod.com/ Unfortunately he cannot do our wedding, since it is Santa Barbara, CA. For that the only ones my fiance' would accept was FotoCielo. http://www.fotocielo.com/ Their work is gorgeous and they have been easy to work for so far.
My favorite hair clip would have to be the Two Ruffle Gardenias in ivory. So simple yet artistically crafted.
kd_one@hotmail.com
I like the 'sweetheart' clip the best, it's just so friendly for any occasion or even daily wear!
ReplyDeletecrickie@gmail.com
Her pieces are definitely memorable since I remember looking at all of these gorgeous pieces before when Smitten had a giveaway several months ago.
ReplyDeleteI'm still loving the Lady Alabaster and Dos Gardenias Para Ti. Thanks for another chance to win your beautiful work!
I love the work of Punam Bean [http://www.punambeanweddings.com/]. I love her photojournalism style, and that everything she shoots looked natural and candid instead of completely staged like the type of stuff I've seen from other Indian photographers.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the Frost Blue hair piece. I've been going back and forth about whether to do the netted veil or just a flower but I suppose waiting for the dress would be a better plan:)
ReplyDeleteALSO, as for photography...I absolutely love One Love Photo. It's artsy and unique and something I'd love to see with my own wedding photos. Besides all that they just seem to get you completely comfortable and the pictures reflect that!
I am getting married in WI and since cost is a factor, we'll be going with someone more local. Check out these 2 photographers from La Crosse, WI: http://www.dawnsilvaphoto.com/
http://www.tiffanybrubaker.com/
Enjoy!:)
Wow, everything is so beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteI don't have a favorite wedding photographer yet... but I just recently discovered Dana Grant. I love classy style with a touch of laid-back casualness and vintage, if that makes sense!
I love the Dos Gardenias, Sunset Peony, Apples & Honey, and Puff!!
I love the Off - White ranunculus in her shop!
ReplyDeleteMy fave photographer at the moment is our photographer we just booked!
http://www.breathoflifephotography.com/

My favorite is Max Wagner, found him through Cup of Jo's site. http://www.maxwanger.com/
ReplyDeleteAnd the clips are beautiful!
So pretty! I would absolutely love to win this or any of her pieces. My other favourite would have to be the Sunshine hair clip!
ReplyDeleteI have fallen in love with the Ruffle Gardenia! My dress has soft ruffles at the bottom, and my great grandmother used to have gardenias in her garden. :)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite photographer is Lori Dill in Birmingham, Alabama www.appearphotography.com. She is wonderful!
Two of my favorite are wedding photographers are:
ReplyDeleteBen Blood http://benblood.com/
and Brandon Kidd http://www.bkiddphoto.com/ - I love both their styles, a little vintage and a fabulous use of color.
Closest to me, my favorite photographer is Deidre Lynn http://deidrelynnphotography.com/ she truly captures moments.
Lastly, LOVE Smitten's Shop. Favorite piece? Midnight Blues. Amazing.
She is already one of my favorite sellers! It is hard to pick just one, I love them all. If i must then it would be a choice between, the gardenia, the fields an the grasshopper.
ReplyDeleteI love JL Photgraphia. They take some amazing shots and capture some really lovely moments.
http://www.jlphotografia.com/theblog/
What a beautiful hair piece!
ReplyDeleteMy (current) favorite photographer is Fiona Andersen. http://fionaandersenphotography.com/blog/ We are both in New Zealand. Fiona has a way of capturing a certain clarity and light in her photos which I think reflects the atmosphere of our country. As a small country we dont have a huge amount of really exceptional wedding photographers, but i think Fiona is in a league of her own and she has a fabulous way of showing off our scenery too
lovin that hairpiece! my favorite wedding photographers are philip and kristin at novo-studio.com
ReplyDelete1. because i love their ethereal vibe and 2. we were school mates!
hollymetcalf at yahoo dot com
Classic and cutting edge at hte same time - I need one of these! They'd look great in my photos, which IF I were getting married in Cali would possibly be taken by Meg Perotti b/c I love her site: http://megperotti.com/blog/
ReplyDeletePick me, pick me! I love the gardenias, feathered peony and the purple one, oh and the list goes on!
i like the sweetheart hairpiece since my wedding's theme color are pink and blue

ReplyDeleteVery beautiful!
alezaberube@gmail.com
Oh my, I've fallen in love with the ivory gardenia! Although I wouldn't mind a big ivory/pink peony (they used to grow in my backyard...)!
ReplyDeleteI was referred to KLK Photography and I absolutely love the master mind of it all: Kristi Klemens! Her images are so well crafted - editorial at times, but she also captures traditional shots that are classic and timeless. Can't wait to work with her in 30 days! :)
daniellekinkel@gmail
The gardenia would be perfect with my wedding dress... perfect.
ReplyDeleteMy fave photographer is my wedding photographer of course -- Our Labor of Love... t
Smittenxoxo is such a great find, thanks. As for photography, I love the work of Tec Petaja: http://www.tecpetajaphoto.com/

I have been a long time admirer of Smittenxoxo and have always loved the Perch clip:
ReplyDeletehttp://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=33293345
I blogged it a while back and it sometimes makes me wish I were having a blue wedding.
Wow! I love the Sunshine clip--beautiful and cheerful and made me smile.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite photographer is my dear friend Andrew: http://www.andrewburtonphoto.com/
He is ridiculously talented and I can't wait to snag him while he's young and cheap before he wins his first Pulitzer :)
My favorite photographer is Benj Haisch. His work is just stunning.
ReplyDeleteThe turquoise veil with the red flowers in the back would be perfect for my color scheme!
I wore the gardenia flower on my wedding day. It was so perfect and everyone thought that it was real. Leah is incredibly talented.
ReplyDeleteAs far as a local photographers goes.... andrewjordanphotography.com
ReplyDeleteLooking through his wedding portfolio it looks like he takes photos more to suit the couple's personality and style rather than his own which is what I think is great.
Smitten's shop is great. Good variety and different sizes for the hairpeices. Having custom orders is definetly a plus especially when it comes to wedding stuff.
littledeadmommy@gmail.com
These hair clips are amazing! I have been looking for the perfect one to wear at my wedding!
ReplyDeleteThe absolute best photographers in this area Ray and Erica Tisdale of 35 Atlanta. They are so amazing and talented. They're shooting my wedding in May. :)
http://www.35atlanta.com
Smittenxoxo is so incredible. The Gardenia Hair clip is stunning, I would love to have the chance to wear it proudly.
ReplyDeleteMy favourite (Sydney, Australia) wedding photographer has to be, Lucy Leonardi:
http://www.lucyleonardi.com.au/index.php
Her photos are truly beautiful and she's able to capture all the emotion of the day.
eeee! That's gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI like One Love Photo.

I like Lady Alabaster the best. it is pretty and understated, my favorite qualities.

smyaecker@hotmail.com
My favorite photographer is Jasmine Starr. I've been following her for at least a year before being engaged.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite smitten item is the ruffle gardenia b/c it looks so soft and delicate.
I love all of these creations! I have been looking around for a fascinator for my Virgin Islands wedding in June.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite photographer is Greer Rivera.. so fresh and so clean clean. I am unable to contain my excitement about having her photograph our wedding! http://www.greerrivera.com/
I'd go for the Victorian - I'm really pale with dark brown hair, so it would be perfect for our small, casual summer wedding.
ReplyDeletenot.a.ship(at)gmail.com
I've got to say that the gardenia is by far the most perfect piece. I would love to show that off at my wedding this August.
ReplyDeleteThe most fantabulously amazing photographer is the one and only Tammy Swales: http://www.tammyswales.com. Complete fun and totally beautiful shots. Couldn't ask for more! LOVE her!!
wcswan2010@gmail.com
Wow.. this stuff is gorgeous. SO hard to pick a favorite... but I think I'd either go with the gardenia or Lady Alabaster.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE photography and one of my favorite things about planning my wedding has been the discovery of so many wonderful photographers. My favorites so far are www.jeffholtphoto.com/, http://www.sandrasalisbury.com and of course- our photographer!: www.kateharrisonphotography.com/ . All have a gorgeous style that is at once photojournalistic and intimate, modern but with an organic bend. The style that I'm drawn to was expressed perfectly by Kate: "You are searching for a photographer who brings joy, calm, eyes in the back of her head, passion, originality, laughter, spunk". Love it!
Oh! and my email, should you need it: aslan2806 at sbcglobal dot net
You have exquisite taste. I adore all your pieces, but 'Dove' takes the cake!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite photographer is Matthew Wright of Fig Tree Photography (FigTreePhotography.com). He's absolutely amazing at capturing the important moments in a photojournalistic/documentary fashion that makes flipping through one of his albums the next best thing to actually being present.
Oops... Forgot my email! It's khrysnikk@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteMy favorite wedding photographer is Jessica Claire at www.jessicaclaire.net, only wish she could travel to my wedding in South Africa!
ReplyDeleteI just love the Dove- hairpiece and veil!

I'd be over the moon to win the gardenia flower - our first dance is to "Dos Gardenias" played by the Cuban band we're having. (We are telling them to leave out the last verse...if you look at the lyrics you'll see what I mean!)
ReplyDeleteI love the photographer we're having for our wedding - she's just starting out but we had an engagement shoot with her and she was wonderful, and her photos made us look amazing:
http://emmacasephotography.blogspot.com/ - UK girls, book her! She's fab!
AHH!! I love those flowers! My dress has this huge icky sparkly bit on the hip and I need to cover it up with a big awesome flower - but so many are so beautiful! I really like the Number 10...or Number 5...or the Two Ruffle Gardenias in ivory...or the Ivory Peony! Are you kidding me? You want me to choose one!?!?!?
ReplyDeleteAs far as photographers in our area, I'm in love with Kage Imagery for their clean look and ability to capture the moment with such clarity. Also, Gene & Katie seem to be genuine and fun people who I'd be happy to have at our wedding.
*PHEW* so much beauty.

I ove our photog!!
ReplyDeletehttp://jacobgalleries.blogspot.com/
He captures moments you'd never think of.
I am smitten BY SMITTEN! The ruffled gardenia is timeless. It channels a little billie holliday with a modern twist!
ReplyDeleteMy FAVORITE photog BY FAR is Jacklyn from JAGSTUDIOS photography. She has a great spirit, is eco conscious and captures such honest pictures. People are always so happy in her pics and her color processing is awesome. www.jagstudio(dot)net.
Yay. I'm a wedding photographer-- www.paigelehmann.com, and my favorite local wedding photographer is Michelle, or Lucille Von Tron -- she's doing our wedding and she's amazing! What's really nice is that she uses a mix of digital and real film with toy cameras.

i'm in love with the "greens" piece and "little bellas"!!
ReplyDeletemy favorite photographer (who's our photog at our weding, hehe), is moe of moleyphotography.com. He's very artistic, creative, and is really fun to work with!

I have been eyeing of those gardenia clips for a while now...
ReplyDeleteMy favourite photogrpher is named Vincent Lai from Australia (www.vlblog.net). His compositions are natural and engaging and he doesn't rely heavily on post production to get great results.
What a great giveaway! Thank you!
neeshy *at* gmail dot com
SO many choices! Argh.. but I am totally wanting a birdcage veil for my upcoming wedding, and her "Ravishing" headpiece is exactly what I want to wear!
ReplyDeleteI'm actually liking Nine Photography at the moment (www.ninephotography.com). I love how they can capture the joy and happiness of the event, without making their subjects look like they were posing. I especially love the filters/lighting effects they use to give the photos a vintage feel, yet some shots still keep that modern touch.

I'm loving ALL these hairpieces! All are so gorgeous and add an element of FUN. My personal favorite is Lady Alabaster. Simple, but elegant and beautiful.
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite wedding photographers is Todd Pellow. (I think that's how you spell his name...) He's based out of Louisville, and his work takes my breath away!
Here is my photographer for my upcoming wedding: http://5fourteenphotography.com/
ReplyDeleteI'm super excited to see what she will do and am confident I will end up with great and unique pictures.
As for Smitten's items, my favorite is the peacock twirl. http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=33292391
Gorgeous!
I like the single ruffle gardenia piece. The double is really pretty as well. Also there are several talented photographers in the Raleigh, NC area and I can't choose just one. My favorites are Caroline Ghetes ( http://www.carolineghetes.com/blog), Millie Holloman (http://www.milliehollomanblog.com/), and Marthanna Yater ( http://www.marthannayater.com/).

The gardenia needs to be in my hair, on my wedding, when I make out with my new husband! I have been growing my hair out for just such a flower. Gorg!
ReplyDeleteThe photography I can't get enough of and prbly can't afford is max wanger http://www.maxwanger.com/
there is such an identifiable viewpoint in his photos that they really border art rather than anything else. any of the pics would make an amazing living room piece even if they weren't your own wedding photos, ya know?
he clearly understands people and the subtlety that can be achieved with photography.
Love the gardenias! SO pretty! That's definitely my favorite. All of them are so fun!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite local photographer is lynell shooks at www.lizzieweddings.com. She's amazing and fresh and fun and gets incredible colors and creative scenes.
Would love to wear your design at my wedding.

I love their aesthetics and their daring to be different.
Beautiful shop! I absolutely love the gardenia and the cream sunset peony piece as well.

L-O-V-E, love! All the gardenias are my faves...and the peony makes me happy too. So pretty...perfectly simple, modern and whimsical.
ReplyDeleteOne of my many favorite photogs is Sean Flanigan. http://www.seanflaniganphotography.com
I just found your blog - what a great idea thank you for sharing all of the beautiful items and please keep celebrating all that etsy has to offer to make a wedding unique!
ReplyDeleteThese are so amazing! I dont know if I should thank you or be upset for all these amazing options! I always wanted a flower for my hair, but now to choose the style....I think I'm debating between the Poison in Peach or the Orchid...or thirties....or crystal blue - as you can see I can't decide!
ReplyDeleteMy fave photographer is Ben Di Caprio: I love his "top five" photos, and his ability to capture so much emotion in his pictures. http://www.benjamindicaprioblog.com/
Very cute shop!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite wedding photographers are definitely Max Wanger (www.maxwanger.com) and Our Labor of Love (www.ourlaboroflove.com)
I completely love the Alabaster hairpiece, gorgeous stuff!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite photographer is Chandra at www.moonstruckvisions.com - she is just starting out, but takes gorgeous photos, and is an all around awesome, down to earth human being.
I fell in love with a certain Southern California photographer because I came across these photos---http://braedonsblog.com/2008/12/25/seth-and-dionna-el-capitan. The pictures are a natural mix of rustic romance and simple elegance.
ReplyDeleteThe hair clips from smittenxoxo are also a good example of simple elegance. I'm thinking the ruffle gardenia clip may be a good detail for my wedding day!
Mmm, Etsy AND a giveaway, how can I resist?
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, I LOVELOVELOVE these hairpieces!! I already have smitten noted as a favorite shop, and have swooned over these clips (including the Gardenia) for months! Another that would be absolutely PERFECT would be the Red Russian hair clip. The colors for our wedding are black and white with a dash of red, and this would really pop against my dark brown hair. We're also getting married in a barn near Boston, so the berries are a perfect rustic-New-England touch.
Email! douxquemiel at gmail dot com!
I love the gardenia clip!! I planned my whole wedding around the blossoming period of spring flowering trees, and this piece fits so perfectly into our wedding design.
ReplyDeleteI have loved for over a year, and still love, the women we ultimately chose as our wedding photographer. Megan Dupuis of Perspectives Photography, based outside of Boston, MA. Her detail shots are beyond compare! She manages to capture everything, and really highlights the natural beauty and architecture of the settings, something that was really important to my fiance and I. Her link is: http://www.perspectives-photography.com
Oh, I have always wanted to wear a gardenia in my hair! So lovely.
ReplyDeleteI love our photographers, husband and wife team Jagger Photography. Their pictures are so real and fun!

I love Brandon Kidd's photos. You can find him at www.brandonkiddphoto.com. I just love his use of light!

My absolutely favorite photographer in Kansas City, Mo is www.chelseadonoho.wordpress.com! She's doing my wedding and is so fabulous and young-only 21!

The dove piece with birdcage is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteMy new favorite photographer(s) are:
Liesl & Randy www.photopinknyc.com

2. a photojournalistic approach that doesn't get in the way of the moment
3. they're REAL people, Liesl is SO sweet
We are signing w/ them this Tuesday :)
savannahreneelopez@yahoo.com
All of her work is so fantastic. The flowers are amazingly realistic. My favorite photographer is Amy Parsons. www.amyparsons.com because she has such gorgeous saturated colors and just seems to have a good eye for it. I was looking at the album of pictures from one of her weddings and had to keep reminding myself I was looking at pictures and not watching a video.
ReplyDeleteoh my gosh i can't even begin to tell you how perfect these flowers would be for me! I was planning on wearing gardenias in my hair for my wedding because my grandmother did the same thing when she played in the Evansville Symphony Orchestra. Also, I'm from Baltimore so I'm a local :) My favorite wedding photographer is my photographer (and longtime friend) Melissa Barrick www.melissabarrickphotography.com . She's new and she's awesome! I love her angles and how she perfectly captures mood and emotion.
ReplyDeletegorgeous stuff! I love three and frosted purple...tough to decide!
ReplyDeleteAhhh! I have a flower on my dress but want to replace it with this - have been obsessed with gardenias since Katherine Hepburn's "Summertime"...beautiful stuff!
ReplyDeleteWedding is in the Berkshires, but I'm blessed that my Polish cousins will be photographing our day. They are amazing! http://www.flickr.com/photos/swiatek-oracz/
I would love for my daughter to win the ruffle gardenia! It is our family's favorite flower. We all have them planted in our gardens, and it would be the perfect traditional tie in! It matches her dress perfectly!
ReplyDeletestudio g photography is my favorite! www.studiogphoto.net
Gorgeous gardenias - they are among my favorite. I also really love Gates of Ivory. I have a weak spot for flowers and feathers!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite photographer is hard (Labor of Love, Tec Petaja, Max Wanger, Gia Canali are all great). But I love photography with a whimsical, classic style that can capture the essence of the couple, their style, and a venue in one!
I have to say the gardenia piece is my favorite! I don't have a wedding photographer yet, as I am in the early planning stages. My other favorites of Smittenxoxo's is Greens and Soft...love the feathers!
ReplyDeleterebecca_moffet@yahoo.com
Off the top of my head, Max Wanger (http://www.maxwanger.com/) does beautiful shots of weddings and everything else too (who doesn't love the big balloon photos?). Also, Erin Hearts Court (http://www.erinheartscourt.com/) manages to make their photos so much fun.
ReplyDeleteI do hope I win - these gardenias are stunning and would make a great wedding present for my friend! Also, I love all these comments because I have so many more wedding photographers to look up now!
Everything in the shop is sooo gorgeous!!!

Everything in Smitten's shop is absolutley beautiful...but I'd have to say that the Gardenia's still take my breath away. If I had to pick another piece, I'd go with the Ivory veil and flower.
