Plus, we have one last dose of Valentine's Day inspiration for you lovelies before you head off into the weekend, all courtesy of the talented team of Poppi Photo and Fox in the Pine. [MORE]
Going out with a bang. Truer words have never been spoken as we wrap up this week with a big ol' Texas celebration with even bigger heart. And we have the picture perfect musings of The Nichols to thank for all this beauty. Seeing the world through their lens is one of our favorite past times and this view is BEYOND. It's an impeccable mix of natural details, crazy gorgeous flowers by... [MORE]
Our giveaway extravaganza is coming to an end, but not before we thank each and every one of our oh-so-fabulous advertisers for helping to make this one very awesome week here at SMP. And, of course, each and every one of you lovelies for joining in on all of the fun. We've loved every last second of celebrating the Best of Magazine with each of you... and revisiting all of the insanely... [MORE]
Vow renewals are quickly becoming my favorite type of fête. Stylishly telling your main squeeze that you are 100%, without a doubt in it for the long haul just makes my sappy heart leap. So when I saw that Brinton Studios decided to say I Do again with the help of Love This Day Events alongside their could-not-be-cuter little girl , I couldn't wait to share it with the... [MORE]
Hip hip hoorays are in order because not only have we been graced with the presence of a Terrain at Styer's fête but the magic maker behind the camera is none other than Alison Conklin Photography. Amazing photographer + killer venue along with a melt-your-heart couple is a total win win in SMP land (actually in most lands I'm sure). And we adore every single... [MORE]
My obsession with this next couple is a little embarrassing. There are like a million pictures in the gallery and I kept pulling the ones of the bride and groom. I couldn't resist. They are obviously gorgeous. Obvi. But they also seem so madly, hopelessly, crazy in love that I can't stop staring at them. Okay, a great pair of Fendis doesn't hurt, nor does an impeccably Californian style and photographs by... [MORE]
I've said it before and I'll say it again - oh, what a wonderful week it has been here on SMP! Day after day of stellar giveaways from some of our amazing advertisers AND a look back at the dazzling weddings of 2011 via our Best of Magazine. Honestly, it just doesn't get any better than this. And though we may be nearing the end of this awesome week, you can rest easy... we still have TWO MORE giveaways... [MORE]
Ryan Ray Photography sent us such a sweet bundle of goodness, we could hardly stand the wait to share. It's all at once intimate and wildly gorgeous with a couple exchanging vows in front of a handful of loved ones in the vast beauty of Sedona. There's snow, there's lots and lots of love and insanely pretty imagery by Ryan Ray. You know what that's called? A Wedding Trifecta. [MORE]
I've tried to come up with the perfect way to describe this breathtaking wedding by Lauren + Abby Photography at the oh so gorgeous Ocean House, and I can honestly say words just don't do it justice. It's one of those weddings were you can literally get lost in the full gallery of images... [MORE]
What do you get when you marry the sweeping and yet utterly charming backdrop of Martha's Vineyard with the genius that is photographer, Shawn Connell? Well, my lovelies. You get this next wedding and what just might be the perfect combination of style and substance. And heart-stoppingly gorgeous images. I apologize in advance for teasing you with a venue as crazy beautiful as this one, that just happens to belong to the the... [MORE]
We've reached the third day of our giveaway extravaganza here on SMP and, oh my goodness, are we LOVING this week. It's been a downright fabulous time reliving all of the pretty, pretty inspiration from 2011 with our Best of Magazine. And with an entire week of amazing giveaways from some of our favorite advertisers on the agenda, well. Life is good. Plus, judging from the comments... [MORE]
What's not to love about an island destination wedding? MAUI to be exact. That description alone conjures up so many delightful thoughts of sandy beached nuptials and sunshine, lots of sunshine. Did I mention sunshine? So to add to that a wedding that is pretty much the best graphically-endowed, whole heartedly fun and modern approach to getting Maui'ed that we've ever seen, it is leaving us a bit speechless. But not speechless enough to gush about the photography skills of... [MORE]
You might notice today is Wednesday, and typically we crank out wedding after gorgeous wedding for a day full of inspiration (full is actually an understatement) on this pretty day. Well this week we are changing things up to make room for a week of giveaways (see the first here and ... [MORE]
Joielala Photographie just gets us. They have an impeccable way of capturing a wedding. A way that speaks to a viewer's heart and dazzles their design sensibilities. Each image from this Anna Maria Island Wedding is doing just that. It's a punch of color, a dash of laid-back style, a layer of chic, sun-splashed details and so, so much more. It's destination done RIGHT. [MORE]
Yesterday was a good day on SMP. Not only did we bask in our usual lineup of show-stopper weddings, we also announced the beginning of one VERY fabulous week of giveaways... all in honor of our annual Best of Magazine. Yep, just when you thought it couldn't possibly get any better than an entire digital mag devoted to all of the lovely from 2011, we thought we'd spice it up a bit with a Monday... [MORE]
