Growing up, my friends and I would play the "desert island" game on almost a daily basis. You know the one... the "what would you take if you were shipwrecked and stranded on a desert island" game? Yep. We rocked that. And even though I don't remember any of my answers (I am guessing they were NKOTB and lip gloss-related), I can guarantee one thing. They didn't look a thing like this breathtaking shoot from the talented ...
This wedding is everything I dream about weddings wrapped up in one lovely post. It's al fresco meets ballroom, DIY meets chic. Honestly, there isn't one thing planned by Something to Celebrate sitting in this gallery by Heather Curiel Weddings that I don't want to pin, favorite...or basically hang on my walls. It's beyond from start to finish, and...
New England weddings hold a special place in my heart. I tied the knot along its sandy shores, so when I see a Bride do the same, I feel like we are kindred spirits. This lovely lady took her love for her summers spent on Martha's Vineyard, and whipped up an affair I am positive everyone is still talking about. Thanks to Jennifer Langdon Photography, we can keep the party going ...
I've got a major soft spot for this wedding. Not only is it covered from beginning to end in the prettiest pink you've ever seen, but it just so happens to have taken place in my backyard. Well, almost. You see this beach is my beach - the beach I walk along every week. Taylor Lord Photography did it proud by capturing it's beauty - along with the rest of the stunning details from this big day - and I'm soaking up every ray of...
You know that J Lo movie The Wedding Planner? Slightly embarrassing confession, but it's one of my faves. 1) because a sucker for any and all romantic comedies and 2) because when a wedding planner gets to celebrate her own wedding. Well, that's pretty darn special. Enter, this sweet Bald Head Island Club affair where the beaming bride happens to be one of the creative forces behind ...
One thing I know for certain about this darling Atlanta duo: they really know how to have a good time. From their epically awesome First Look to their smile-filled ceremony to their seriously fun (+ seriously beautiful) reception held at the amazing Monday Night Brewing, you can tell these two really know how to throw a party. Even better? They do it all with a love that seriously bursts from the computer screen.
Brides these days can truly do it all. Look gorgeous and DIY the heck out of their wedding all without skipping a beat. It's really amazing if you think about it. Take this wedding from Michelle Lange Photography for instance. Not only is every.single.detail sitting in this gallery crafted with love by the lovely Bride, but that lovely...
Does anyone remember Jenna Lyons NYC apartment in Domino Magazine? Her living room was this amazing black and white space with a gorgeous pop of yellow. It seemed so alive, so modern and yet was filled with timeless details. And this party - crafted by Ooh La Love Events with photography by LMarie Photo - reminds me totally of that space. Chic, modern, style for days.
I like to think of this darling shoot as the perfect way to start the weekend. Well, that, and a darn good way to spend your Friday. Because when a talented team of vendors (think 5Thirteen Designs, L.I.F.E Events and De Azucar Bakeshop... just to name a few) join...
Have you ever come across a wedding that you just want to live in for the rest of your days? I have a few times over but this wedding right here; it just might be my soulmate.

Sarah and I actually attended the same high school and the same university for a brief moment in time. We both knew of each other but never really formed a friendship for whatever reason. Fast forward to eight years later, Sarah now lives on the west coast, me on the east, and we somehow stumbled upon each other via the wonderful world of blogging. With a few back and forth email exchanges, we become fast friends and the rest, as...
OK, I'll admit it. I'm obsessed with all things Plum Pretty Sugar. Since I gave my bridesmaids robes of their very own on my big day, I've had a serious affinity for every single piece in the collection! Since 2009, when Plum Pretty Sugar started the wedding robe trend, they've been dressing brides and their ladies in the most gorgeous + unique frocks you ever did see.
If we're being totally honest here, I've never actually heard of Boca Grande (I know, shameful being a Gulf Coast resident myself), but after this gorgeous wedding it's pretty much top of my vacation list right now. Vitalic Photo's images of the day are something out of a dream - a really bright and happy dream - and they have totally convinced me to pack my...
So I tried to chat with mother nature on everyone's behalf, but unfortunately there isn't much we can do about the weather slowly transitioning from summer to fall. And since it seems we have to accept the inevitable, we might as well dress the part, am I right? So here are a few of my personal favourite fall essentials. And after spending some time on my virtual shopping list, I'm kind of feeling better...
This citrus-inspired shoot is a little lesson in color. The takeaway here? Layering bright, like-minded hues is a complete and total "do." Add in the talents of Vanessa Noel Events, Kissing Bees and Alissa Bell Press, and you'll be left with quite possibly the prettiest, peppiest lovefest EVER. See every...
Of the million different places perfect for saying "I do," backyard weddings are (and always will be) one of my favorites. It's the sense of intimacy and coziness that always seems to burst from a backyard wedding that gets me... the feeling of "hominess" that just can't be replicated elsewhere. And this darling day styled to absolute perfection by Jessica Coleman is just that. A drop-dead gorgeous affair with sooo much...

But when you've got an incredible full-service planner like Erica Ota Events on your side, the daunting task of planning the most important celebration of your life is a whole lot easier!

Chicago has chic down to a science. I don't know what it is, but couples that call that city home know how to throw a glamorous affair. And this pretty little number from Robyn Rachel Photography and planned by Big City Bride is the perfect example. It's Louboutin's and a gorgeous ...
Engagement sessions are awesome. Soooo seriously awesome. I mean, an entire day dedicated to celebrating your impending nuptials and having some fun with your soon-to-be Mr. or Mrs.? That's pretty amazing, if you ask me. And when it comes to joy-filled days featuring an adorable duo, look no further than this cooking-themed shoot planned by the geniuses at Bespoke Event Design and captured in beautiful...
There are weddings you adore and then there are weddings you ADORE... drop-dead gorgeous affairs that are so utterly beautiful, you are almost at a loss for words. This is one of those weddings. A breathtaking Italian soiree featuring a stunning actress marrying her dashing music producer groom, all while surrounded by family, friends and moment after moment of "Miss Havisham meets Florence and the Machine" pretty (YES). It's the kind of day that will most certainly go down in SMP history...
