"Coral"

Whenever I'm prompted with the "stranded on a dessert island" question my response is always, without question, "lip balm". I'm legitimately convinced that my lips no longer know how to moisturize themselves since I rely so heavily on the stuff. So I'm pretty excited about the notion of making it for myself in my own kitchen for, well, pennies. And how cute would these be as little for-no-reason-at-all gifts...

I've come to the realization that the happiest weddings start with the peppiest palettes. So when coral and peach mingle with a mix of varied neutrals, the result is a Sarasota wedding to perk you right up from the Monday morning drag. And from the prettiest stationery crafted by Paper Moss to Day Planners' oh-so-obvious attention to detail, this color-infused Indian wedding...

I've told you before that I work with some of the most talented ladies (and gents!) in all of the land, right? Well today I have visual proof! Our darling editor, Mrs. Abby C, recently threw this gorgeous baby shower for a dear friend of hers and I can't even get over all of the cute. The theme? "April Showers Brings May Flowers" - with umbrella cookies and handcut ombre raindrops to boot. ...

Abby recently asked me to put together a list of things I would consider purchasing if I was given $300 to spend at Net-a-Porter. So I started browsing their site and, to be honest, went a little buck nutty. I legitimately had to give myself a time limit so that my virtual shopping spree didn't end up being 56 items long. I ultimately ended up with this cute collection of flirty, feminine, classic items that are sure to last for years to come. And today might just be your lucky day because we...

This wedding is crazy beautiful.  Like in a blow your mind, leave you speechless kind of way.  Which is something we happen to be quite fond of here at SMP, so to say we're excited to share every last moment with you would be a serious understatement.  From the breathtaking ceremony (hello, Bluff Overlook) to the downright darling details to the bride and groom who were so obviously meant-to-be, it's just one beautiful moment after another filling our hearts with happy.  And the gallery...

My mom coffession. I'm not the best at playing. Like imagining that we're princesses that run a doggie spa with a hospital on the side and then the pirates come and we decide that we can be princess doggie spa doctor pirates. I'm just not that good at it. But what I am good at? Crafts. Anything with glue. And definitely anything with glitter. Which means that these two easy breezy art projects are right up my Mother's Day ally. Whether it's a gift for grandma or an activity that you can do on...

When you are completely dedicated to adding a dose of personality to your big day, you'll do just about anything.  Like drive from Wisconsin to Key West in a great big van chock-full of meaningful details, just like these two sweeties.  And then you'll sprinkle those meaningful details and travel-inspired memorabilia throughout every last moment captured by the always amazing Erin Jean Photography... and the result?  Pure, seaside...

I'm not exaggerating when I saw my jaw literally dropped at these photos. Do you know, half of them are at the art historian bride's home? You've simply got to read all about the wedding below and then block out your entire afternoon. You're going to need at least that much time to devour every Tuscan inch of the full gallery from...

I've spent my entire life obsessed with weddings.  From the age of ten, I would leaf through bridal magazines like it was no one's business, obsessing over every last floral arrangement, stunning locale and beautiful gown.  But, my favorite part of the Big Day?  The stories behind it all... the way it all came together.  And these two Boca Raton sweeties?  Well, they enlisted the help of family and friends to craft one of the most beautiful days you will ever see.  From DIY paper goods to...

The inspiration behind this wedding design (on top of the absolutely beautiful love between these two) was the most beautiful flower, the Protea. I mean, it's amazing. To take inspiration from a bloom so interesting, and so lovely, this bride absolutely had to know what she was doing. She was creating a wedding whose images from Sharon De La O have captivated me all weekend... and with...
