Palm Springs Wedding by Shannen Norman Photography

Holy gorgeous flower explosion! Flowerwild took it to an entirely new level of lovely in this Palm Springs wedding, and I am loving every minute of it. Actually, let me be honest, this entire fête is upping the ante on prettiness, and you won't hear this wedding blogger complain one little bit. Instead I'll be gushing and gasping over all the gorgeous images captured by ... [MORE]

Los Olivos Wedding by Michael + Anna Costa Photographers

Michael + Anna Costa might need to enter the SMP Hall of Fame. The weddings that they send us are pinned, favorited and commented on like crazy with brides and grooms that are always madly in love, flowers that scream romance and a photographic style that is all together kind of delicious. So when we spotted this beauty, we knew... [MORE]

Wintry Farm Wedding Photo Shoot by Chantal Andrea Photography

To describe a farm wedding as COZY is just hitting the very tip of the iceberg with this genre of fêtes. Farm weddings are so much more than that. They're like a fire-side family dinner surrounded by your favorite people and loads of yummy comfort food only kicked up about a billion notches. It's a wedding paired down to the beautiful basics: FOOD, FAMILY, and LOVE. And this inspiration shoot styled by... [MORE]

Des Moines Wedding by Mark Kegans Photographs

Weddings tend to strike a separate cord in all of us, and this personality-filled Iowa fête by Mark Kegans Photographs is the perfect example of what tends to strum every cord in my wedding-obsessed heart. Because not only was this wedding held in the chicest of lofts filled with the most sophisticated details (hello fabulous ceremony backdrop!), but when the best man also has the rings flown in by a remote-controlled helicopter and...

Temecula Wedding by Erin Hearts Court

Dear Breathtaking Temecula Wedding... you are hands down one of the prettiest little gems I've ever laid eyes on. All it took was one brief look, one itty bitty little glance at all that pastel-infused gorgeousness and I was a total goner. The only bad thing about this wedding is trying to decide what to pin first. On my "to pin" list: the wildly romantic Monique Lhuilier dress, the row of perfectly unmatched bridesmaids, the ribbon table runners...actually EVERYTHING. And we have ... [MORE]

Saddlerock Ranch Wedding by Events of Love and Splendor

Vibrant doesn't even begin to describe this cultural beauty crafted by Events of Love and Splendor and captured by The Image is Found! Oh no, this fête would need a completely new adjective for all of us to fully grasp the lovely that is this behind the take.your.breath.away details and florals whipped up by ...

Missouri River Valley Wedding by Lisa Hessel Photography

I have fallen head over heels in love with this next little number by Lisa Hessel Photography. It is filled to the brim with prettiness, of course - the flowers are perfect, the color palette is flawless and the Bride is GORGEOUS, but when I read the description by the new Mrs., I realized that this DIY duo is even more darling than I had even given them credit for. Their teamwork approach to their big day paid off and then... [MORE]

Backyard Ojai Wedding by Amy & Stuart Photography

When you feature one gorgeous wedding after another, it's easy to become a bit jaded. Well some people might I supposed. But when you sincerely love weddings, in all of their many layers and textures, it's like living in a candy store. And this wedding is such a treat. It's one stunning chapter after another of beauty. It's expressive, it's thoughtful, it's utterly gorgeous and as the story unfolds, you realize just how very soulful it is. Photographed beautifully by... [MORE]

Lincoln Center Wedding Photo Shoot by Bellafare + Jen Huang

A black and white palette is a no-fail combo. It runs the gamut from classic to whimsical and sometimes it's whole heartedly modern. In this case, it's the latter with a decidedly Breakfast at Tiffany's-esque twist. Bellafare set out to craft a modern infused photo shoot inspired by fashion and crisp details that make for an unexpected yet insanely gorgeous winter wedding. Add to that delicate blooms by... [MORE]

Bighorn Mountains Wedding by Alissa Ferullo Photography

We see a lot of pretty weddings around these parts and yet we always let out a gasp when we see a wedding as pretty as this one by Alissa Ferullo Photography. It's a backyard beauty if there ever was one, and full of the most darling details to boot. And we think you'll agree that the vibrant flowers mixed with stripes and the stunning Wyoming backdrop are sure to make any wedding-loving lovely let out a gasp or two. [MORE]

Monte Rio Wedding by First Comes Love Photo

When it comes down to it, a wedding is about the L-O-V-E. Sure, we go crazy for the prettiest of bouquets or a stunning pair of shoes, but above all else, we adore that spark between a newly crowned husband and wife or that melt-your-heart kiss after the vows. It's these moments that make a wedding and our last installment of the day is toting so many of these warm and fuzzy snapshots along with a big dose of Fun (with a capital F). ... [MORE]
