We are big fans of a whimsical wedding and Abby and Jake’s celebration epitomizes that laid back, romantic, let’s-do-this-thing love aesthetic we can’t get enough of. Abby and Jake chose a stunning stone church for their nuptials and celebrated accordingly at Avent Orangery - one of Kansas City’s most unique venues. Their day was a perfect blend of romantic and organic vibes and they let their venues speak for themselves while incorporating minimalistic decor for an ethereal feel.
Well, hello, friends! It’s been awhile since we’ve blogged (over a year to be exact) and I cannot think of a better wedding and couple to kick things off again! If you follow Something White in any capacity, you know my brother, Ben, got married over the summer. You also know that Ben married my best friend - so I guess you could call me Cupid. ;)
Gorgeous views, an industrial style venue, a dusty romantic color palette and lush eye-catching florals - Summer and Jacob’s Manhattan wedding was as breathtaking as it was classic. The pair filled their big day with personal details and a whole lot of love.
Nothing is quite as wonderfully heartwarming as watching your friends live their best day. It’s even better when their wedding looks, feels and represents the couple perfectly.

Grab your tissues - today’s blog is a good one and sure to cue the waterworks. These lovebirds kicked off their newest chapter of life together with a fun-filled celebration inspired by a deep earth toned color palette, dried florals and vintage flare. Emily planned her entire wedding on her own and she didn’t skip a single beat.
There is nothing quite like a downtown Kansas City wedding in the fall, so it makes sense that Katherine and Alex planned their wedding to be just that. When planning their wedding, they knew they wanted modern accents with a timeless and simple feel. While wedding planning, they drifted towards dried florals and rust, navy and champagne color ways that played well with the time of year and feel of their rustic industrial wedding venue.
Lauren and Shawn’s beautiful fall wedding had everything they asked for. From moody jewel toned florals to a stunningly simple Rebecca Schoneveld gown, every detail went off without a hitch.

We are thrilled to announce the beginning of our brand new charitable initiative, Something Furever by Something White! We’ve partnered with one of Kansas City’s most loved rescue centers, Unleashed Pet Rescue, in effort to make this dream project a successful reality. Inspired by our team’s collective love of furry friends (especially our beloved shop doggo, Lard) we wanted to give back to Kansas City’s animal community in the most thoughtful way we could think of. Here’s a run down of “The Why” behind Something Furever.
In order to keep their wedding date as they faced the challenges of the Covid-19 pandemic, Laura and Alex decided to celebrate their union with only 15 of their nearest and dearest loved ones. With a vibrant color palette and a stunning private residence in New Mexico, their wedding was an intimate event and they opted for an epic one-year anniversary celebration to follow. Although the pandemic offered its challenges, Laura and Alex were able to celebrate two days filled with love, gorgeous details and unforgettable moments.
With muted tones, a one-shoulder Madi Lane gown, drop dead gorgeous accessories and a garden party feel, Lauren and Matt’s June wedding has all the makings of a classic and modern wedding celebration. Lauren and Matt enlisted the help of Lovestruck Events to plan their special day and from the artistic florals to the modern signage, we’d say the decision was a great one! Lauren and Matt’s garden party feels intimate and fun and full of happiness. Personally, we’re celebrating the fact that we landed Lauren as a #swbbkcbride and that we get to share her stunning day on the blog! It simply doesn’t get better.
Some of our favorite wedding details aren’t the big moments, but the little ones carefully styled and preserved in flat lay photos. This summer, we were smitten with the way bouquets, stationery, rings, and meaningful mementos came together to tell each couple’s story. Every arrangement felt like a piece of art, capturing both the beauty of the florals and the personal touches that made each wedding unique. As we say farewell to summer, we’re reminiscing on five flat lays that had us absolutely obsessed this season.
