We are soooo excited to finally announce A Beautiful Mess: The Documentary!! It’s been so hard keeping it a secret after almost a year of having cameras following us around all the time gathering footage.
Our good friend Brandon Goodwin had just wrapped up his work on Linotype and was looking for his next documentary project. He approached us about potentially doing one on A Beautiful Mess, and at first we kind of shrugged it off. We just didn’t think he’d get much of a story out of us, but this past year has been such a roller coaster! It’s so amazing he was here to capture it all. Anyway, we’ll blog more about the whole process and everything that went into it later, but for now check out the trailer!!
A big thank you and congrats to Brandon and everyone at Goodwin Films for bringing this project to life. It turned out so beautiful! xo. Elsie + Emma

I’m late to the party, but that was awesome. Excellent work.
lmao! this is amazing.
So, I’m a little behind…I just watched it and I loved it. This was genius!
Haha what! I love this. Like, seriously. I wish this was real! 🙂
this was super rad! loved seeing your light-hearted take on your blog. love love loved the bleeped out cursing <3
Um, I’m late to this. But this is adorbs and I just giggled so hard that I dropped ramen on my pants. I love you guys.
This TOTALLY got me. You guys do such amazing things and have been so successful, I mean, why shouldn’t you have a documentary? I’d love to see it! Haha. But anyway, I watched this for the first time with my husband and I think he knew right away it wasn’t real but I didn’t know until it said April Fool. I died. What a great joke! I thought it was just a goofy trailer but when I watched it knowing it was fake, it was ten times funnier even. SO GOOD!
Oh that’s amazing! Looking forward to checking it out.

Best April Fool’s joke of the year.
Hilarious! Best April Fools post EVER.
I am so sad that this was a spoof 🙁
Well done! Make the movie & join Spinal Tap, Best in Show, etc!
haha that was fun 😀 I would soooo go see this if it was for real!! :))
xx
lol i know this was posted yesterday but i didnt get a chance to comment til now. i usually read my feedly posts in the morning as soon as i wake up (to help me wake up :P) and i watched the video and i was like, oh cool! they’re doing a documentary! haha i totally fell for it at first. there were a few things i thought were weird, like when elsie was saying “i should put this cute stuff on the internet because i’m good at making it.” lol no offense but i thought, how strange, that seems a little shallow, hahahhahaa. halfway thru, when i got to the photoshop segment, is when i realized it was april fool’s :D. in my defense, it was 6 am! anyone would have thought the same that early in the morning 😛
the end 😉
ps the swearing and bleeps had me giggling pretty hard the rest of the day
This is hilarious. Hands down the best April Fool’s ever.
I’ve watched this trailer four times already, it is so freaking funny! I can’t handle Emma’s voice, she sounds almost too cute! The cursing part was so adorable.
Kindness is the best accessory,

Very funny. I totally think you guys could do a documentary for real, though. Your story is pretty amazing!
Oh NOOOOOOOO!!! Not the succulents!!! Always a prickly ending…… 😉
so good! I would actually watch it if it was a documentary ! you guys rock
This is amazing! What a great April Fools idea! :’)
Aaaaw I was so excited when I saw there was coming a documentary!! 😉 no but seriously 🙂 x
Didn’t get me this year but still loved the trailer! X xxx
Thanks for the laughs!! Made our day…especially the finite idea and idea wheel. Hilarious! Best was hearing Elsie try to throw some curse words…haha. So great!
This is absolutely hilarious! It makes me want to be legitimate friends with you guys! “Why don’t I just make all this cute stuff and then put it on the internet?” Overspending on succulents! The idea wheel! Hahaha! Happy April. =) *dancing girl emoji*
Haha I just love that you took the time to do this! Rad!
THATS SO EXCITING ! looking forward to it !xxx

god bless america, i totally fell for it! just when i thought i could escape April Fools un-fooled!
You totally had me! Especially as I saw this on the 2nd of April, so it being an April Fools didn’t even cross my mind!
Second time commenting here, but, seriously, I think you found THE way to spot people who commented without watching the video 😛
The “son of a b*tch!” at 1:02 SLAYS ME hahahah!

I totally thought this was real until you got to the succulents part. (the “this is a fake film festival – Best Movie Ever Prize” should have tipped me off, though.) LOVE IT! Also, yes, please make an actual documentary!

Noooo!! As soon as I saw this post, all thoughts of Aprils Fools tomfoolery left my mind and I was completely ecstatic over the thought of ABM releasing a Documentary 😀
And then came the end of the video… shucks! You guys should really make a documentary though! I would watch it in a heart beat <3

Well done.
Hysterical and oh so creative…but I’m still sad there won’t be a documentary 🙁
TOO MANY SUCCULENTS! My fave April Fools today.
OMG! This totally had me! As I am watching it didn’t even dawn on me that it was April 1st! I really was thinking as that “trailer” was playing, I hope that actually documentary is not like this and is REAL! HaHa!!! Best prank of the day!
haha! April Fools!
This is sooo funny !! It totally bought it… Until I watched the trailer !
Amazing, thank you guys for making me laugh this morning.

You guys: this is the BEST BEST BEST BEST BEST gift you could have given your blog following. I’m like scrolling thru instagram like Oh wow yeah I’d love to see a documentary about them. And then I watch the trailer and I’m giggling and snorting at my desk. Oh my god. SUCCULENTS. Lol. Thumbs up ABM team.
Bwahahaha! I blew my succulent budget last month too!
Haha great idea!!
Oooohhhhkkkaaayyyy. This is hilarious!
You should really do a documentary though…life for real. I would watch it.
Get on it. Now.
Every year!!!
SO cool! Can’t wait to see!
This is the BEST April Fool’s for sure!! I’m glad you found a way to solve your succulent money problems! 😉
This is so great! It’s awesome to get to see a different side of all of you! A documentary would be a stellar idea!
Hilarious!
This was absolutely hilarious! I loved it!
Hahahaha love the gold leafing & succulents budget comments.
cheered me right up after my phone interview. can you guys just do this silly documentary? not gonna lie, i’d like to see the end of how you guys deal with your succulent debt.
Probably the best one I have seen all day!

That was perfect! only figured it out when i paused to see what all those “awards” were! HAHAHA
So this is hilarious,, but I thought it would actually be an awesome reality show.. just saying
Literally snorting at my desk. Love ABM April Fools!
Haaaaan I almost believe it !
Awesome april fool’s! The video is really funny!
Well you got us!Although i think i speak for pretty much every follower of yours when i say JUST DO IT! a short documentary on how you run things, and how you work with all the people involved on a beautiful mess! DO it ! DO it!
Lorelai <3
This is great. At first I thought it was real but then I saw the pie chart and the succulent overspend and I was like AHA!
That. Was. AWESOME!!! HAHAHA 😀
From following this blog I knew you all had a sense of humor, and this was a perfect display of that humor!!
Thanks for making me laugh!
Hahaha, such a good April Fool’s joke. Love you guys.
That was adorable. That must’ve been so fun to make!
Very cute you guys! LOVE the April Fool’s jokes you play!
Hahaha….you guys totally win!!!!!! :))
Kimi.
This was so incredibly funny! And obviously you did a good job because some people here think it’s a real documentary! 🙂
Hahaha this was so good! Love it!!
Ahahah excellent ! That joke is totally epic. Happy April Fool girl !
So funny – you gals are great!
OMG that was the best!!!!! But please tell me you’re kidding about the documentary not happening….
I’m so bummed! I really wanted to watch that documentary!
So. good.
Crippling succulent debt actually made me keel over. Great April Fools joke guys!!!
Hilarious! Love it, you guys are the best. Best April Fools ever, but seriously I would watch an hour of succulent debt jokes….
OMG that was great! Love the bedazzled ski mask! Happy April Fools!
Hahaha I kinda believe it and I couldn’t stop thinking wait -WHAT?? And the first think I thoughts in the morning was: BEWARE APRIL FOOLS DAY! (this day does not even exists here in spain…)
haha!! Well……..you got me!!!
xo
hahah… great! A few seconds in I was really hoping that this was a dark humor, critical look at the occasionally superficial world of blogging…. really hoping, because if it wasn’t a spoof, that would have been pretty bleak. Great work ladies.
I knew you would come up with something for April 1 (so you didn’t have me for a minute), but I’m so glad I clicked over!! hahaha! THIS WAS AWESOME!!!!!! Trey’s serious face cracked me up the most. hahaha.
That’s bloody marvellous!! If you could stretch that humour to an a hour and a half….We’d go for it in the UK xx
NO!!! Please say there IS going to be a documentary! Maybe if enough people ask you??? OK, well it was a perfect April Fool’s gag, one of the best. But what else could we expect from you? Thank you!
Best April Fool’s joke EVER!!!!! Loved it!!!!
APRIL FOOLS you goofballs!
I can’t stop cracking up, awesome april’s fool!!!!
So freaking cute! Best April Fools I’ve seen today 🙂
LOLZ! Too funny and cute. I wanna see that glitter plant 😉

Excellent, excellent, excellent! This started my 4/1 right! HOWEVER–I dunno, now I’m thinking a blogging mockumentary is great idea. Ha!
Nice work!
Brittany
http://whitedogvintage.wordpress.com
THIS IS HILARIOUS!!! You guys fooled me!
OMG!!!! This might be my favorite thing you guys have EVER done. I laughed out loud at my desk at the part about the succulents budget and hearing Elsie say “son of a b!”
I love seeing you guys make fun of yourselves–it shows you all are human and probably have tons of fun every single day!
You got me!!!! ah ahah!
You had me at “crippling succulent debt.” Also: Trey is a grade-A straight man. lol
Hahahaha! You totally got me! The sad thing is I’d see a movie about blogging bank robbers with a succulent problem! 🙂
So good! I always look forward to your April fools jokes- and still I usually forget it’s April 1st until i’m 1/2 way through with it. Haha good job- I love that y’all don’t take yourselves too seriously.
it started out all serious like an episode of hoarders, and i was like- whoa this is going to show us the real trials of ABM. then turned into total hipster cliche!!!! $23G on succulents! hahaha loved it!!
Best April Fools joke ever! So clever.
hahaha I was expecting something else, but i absolutely love it. Can’t wait to see it!
http://aparedeindecisa.com.br
HAHHAHAHA alright guys!!!! bravo!!! this…would be a fabulous freakin’ documentary i would totally watch but…announce this on any day other than **april fool’s** and i’ll believe it beyond a shadow of a doubt 😉 hahahahaha i love you guys!!! <3 laughing so hard at that perfect trailer.
xoxox, Naomi | http://bunnyandfawn.blogspot.com/
Ahhhhh! I didn’t think it was possible for me to love you girls any more than I already did! 🙂 Thanks for the laughs this morning.
Oh wow. Very well done guys! You totally got me. I was laughing at the succulent debt and the bedazzled beanie thing so much! I only wish the ABM documentary was true. It would be awesome to see all the behind the scenes in video format. The thought is simply amazing.

HOLY WOW!! Congrats guys!
Sarah M
I hope there are many more mocumentaries in ABM’s future.
I totally almost spit my breakfast all over the place…high-larious!
I’m secretly wanting this to be real! Well, not so secret anymore!

Full length A Beautiful Mess mockumentary?

You guys! that was mean!! But seriously, at first i was really excited. And then I was like “hmmm, this is really contrived. Not sure I can make it through an entire documentary like this…”
LOL
Good one.
Wow!! This is the best April Fools joke ever! 🙂
Wow!! This is the best April Fools joke ever! 🙂
I love you guys! LOL
That was … amazing. “We’re out of ideas! We used them all up.”
Best April Fools prank yet!!! Though it would be awesome to actually see a documentary about A Beautiful Mess too! 😉
Good one guys!
But I really want the movie lol
That was an amazing start to the day! Thank you all for making that, even that was beyond cute! Though I do think a real documentary on what you all do would be amazing.
That was one of the best April Fools! Yall are great!
April Fools! You almost got me!
🙂
Oh, you guys, this is BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I laughed so much (Emma – you were *so* funny in the last bit!!!!!!!)……thank you!!!! Totally made my morning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Um. I actually got so excited about this!! Totally fooled. Good job!
Best. April. Fools. Joke. Ever.
I totally thought this was real at first
This is so hilarious!
Omggg I fall for this EVERY SINGLE YEAR!
You’re the best! hahahahah
Ha ha, awesome!
The succulent debt! The swearing! This is the best april fools ever.
LMAO…I have to hand it to you too that you ROCK at the April Fools thing! Last year I was ready to get in my car to go cross country to snatch up two dogs lol and you had me on this one totally until the ski masks…when I saw the trailer I thought WOW how awesome…you had me the whole way!!!! Thanks for the laugh…you should write a book on April Fool’s pranks!!! You are Queens and Kings at it! Hugs!
Brilliant! You really had me going there for awhile. 🙂 You have the best April Fools day jokes-thanks for making me laugh!
Will you be documenting about the time you posted an opportunity to adopt your gorgeous puppy Suki..I believe it was exactly one year ago today when it happened (wink wink) hee hee.
Hilarious!!!
That was awesome!!! So funny, and creative!! Thanks for the laugh…..
Ok that was f’in hilarious!
hahahaha So so good!
Hilarious. High five and dancing girls emoji to you.
That is so funny – love it we’ve run out of ideas! Brilliant!
Ha haaa! Okay, ya got me!!
For real…April fooling aside…
I would be the first in line to see a documentary about your blogging life.
XO
So cute! So fun! 😀
April Fool’s Day!?
Well done!! Very funny!
Best April Fools so far! Love you girls haha.
You guys are hilarious! Happy April Fools!
This was one of the best videos I’ve watched! You guys are hilarious!
Have such a fantabulous day!
Exciting! However, I think I’m gonna have to call April Fool shenanigans. I trust no one on April 1st.
I think you’re really onto something there ladies!!
hahaha, AMAZING.
This is AMAZING!!! I’m laughing so much right now! I can’t believe you guys actually made a trailer, it was awesome. How did Trey managed to be serious saying: “They will be pretty shocked when they see… the mess”? hahahahaha
You guys rock.
😉
April fools
That was amazing! So hilarious
APRIL FOOL’S!!!! Hahaha! (This is great.) 😛
xoxo
Allison
Well played!
LMAO. Got me… for a minute I was like: YAAASSSSSS!
Oh my gosh. I am dying. That was awesome!
Oh my goodness, I’m so very excited! Congratulations on another great adventure!
???? oh my god, I got so excited when I read you’d been making a documentary – Dammit! That “Oh sh*t, we overspent on succulents” was amazing. Happy April 1st A Beautiful Mess!
Omg! Love!!! I was kind of lost half way through like there is no way this is serious. They have to be making a mocumentary like the office or something. Then I thought maybe they are hoping to get a sitcom. Had me all the way till the end!!
Oh god you guys are amazing! I actually would love a documentary on bloggers I love- something to show friends/family that don’t get it 😉 But this was almost just as fabulous. Efffiin succulents, man! xo
Warm Regards,

Is it weird that I could see this as a genuine comedy show?! ?
Woah this is big news. I bet this will be fascinating.
That was AWESOME!
Love it!
Bah!
OMG!! You just KILLED April Fools! The only bummer was I was so looking forward to seeing the movie! xox!
Hahahaha awesome! 🙂 So funny, I loved it!
I knew this was an April fools prank before i pressed play. But this one was amazing. You topped the others of years past.
But seriously, succulent debt is a real thing! Well, at least it is in my house.
Thanks for making my morning a little brighter.
Now if only i could find myself an idea wheel…
Bwahahaha!!! This made my morning! I would totally go see this documentary. And thanks for showing us the agony of succulent debt. 🙂
LOVE IT !! Particularly the end. You gals rock out loud. Xo thanks for starting my day with a big fat smile!

Thanks and bravo you guys! julie
You guys, rock! You also have great ideas for April’s fool??? Amazing! thanks for the video!I had so much fun watching it! (something is telling me you had great time doing it too!) xoxo
That was actually pretty funny. The little jokes at yourselves/the blog totally earns respect from this girl. I love people who can bring a bit of humour about their quirks and habits. Great April fool xx
Maybe because it is early… ugh. But you totally got me. 🙂 im going back to bed.
I will say I was really worried for a sec thinking ” this makes them look so bad!” So well played ABM, well played.
You totally had me!! Love it!

I think we’ve all been there, with the succulent budget.

Oh, that’s amazing! When I saw the announcement for the trailer in my feed, I squeaked . You are a true role model with “A Beautiful Mess”. A film about everything and especially about you, is like the cherry on the cupcake.
I’m really looking forward to August.
Dearest Greetings,
Leah
You guys had me for a second! Until I got to the part about succulents, that is. Lol. I love it!
this is the best April Fools ever!!! It took me about 90 seconds to realise!! 😀
Hahaha! I thought this was legit! I WOULD love to see a documentary of this blog though! 😉 😉
Good job ! I didn’t see it cominG… At all !!
Fell for it! 🙂 🙂 🙂 Awesome!
haha I’m not gonna lie, I’m really disappointed this isnt actually real!
Again…can’t believe you got me again… Isn’t is last year that you were giving your dogs away or the year before that you were both pregnant at the same time. The worst of all, I was talking about your april fools, yesterday with my husband and saying that there were no way you would get me again this year! This one is one of your best though! Loved it! (and the elsie burglars mask… 🙂
Hahaha so funny!! I believed it!! LOL

Okay, just watched the video. Haha, you should totally do this!

Although, if it was true {because I will not completely, 100%, disbelieve it} it would be kind of aweosome. I’d watch it!
