"Fairytale weddings are made at the Grand Hotel." Said by the bride, and truer words have never been spoken. For those of you who are naive to the magic that is Mackinac Island, we've got today's wedding to bring you into the loop. The little island has no cars, just bikes and horses. It's filled with gorgeous beaches, stunning views, and a hotel so grand, it is enough to inspire a wedding this gorgeous. You won't want to miss...

Give me a classic southern soiree and you'll have one crazy happy wedding blogger on your hands. But add in an A-team of vendors like Kristin Newman and Gathering Floral + Event Design, and I'm totally and completely head over heels. It's a wedding so beautiful you'll need to hold the phones and clear your morning schedule. But not to worry. It's all in the name...
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...
Vermont is yummy. It's all pretty landscape, fresh air, and an ambiance that just breathes. And through the lens of Dave Robbins Photography's camera, it's perfect. Especially when said lens is pointed at a wedding so elegant. TRUE Event was behind the soiree, so it's no surprise that it's amazing, but somehow I was still shocked at the utter hugeness of my smiles after...
New Year's Eve. One of my favorite days of the year. It's fun, fabulous and, if you ask me, the perfect way to celebrate a wedding. Which is why I may or may not have let out a little squeal of delight when I laid my eyes on this stunning Chicago History Museum affair. (Truth: I totally did.) Because not only is this wedding a fun-filled January 31st celebration, it's a serious lesson in all-out glamour and sophistication, with...
My very own big day was a seaside soiree with a touch of tradition, so it should be no surprise that I fell head over heels in love with this beauty captured by Liga Photography. It's dripping in that old Florida charm that never fails to leave me speechless, perfectly curated details from MMD Event and of course enough l.o.v.e to fill up that gorgeous blue ocean.
Sometimes a smile says it all. And this Bride's smile says she feels like the luckiest girl in the world. Lucky that she gets to marry the boy of her dreams surrounded by the people she loves most, and do so in serious style. When you start scrolling through the gorgeous images from Gina Leigh Photography, It's safe to say she has every right to feel that way. It's a day that would make anyone smile, and you can see even last...
This wedding just looks FUN. Like the kind of fun that has you still talking years down the road. You know the ones... totally gorgeous, filled with sweet, personalized details, amazing food and dancing 'til dawn. But, when you are as hip as these two lovelies (seriously - look at them) and celebrate your Big Day in a stunningly colorful way in downtown Chicago at theWit Hotel, it's pretty much a no-brainer that you're going to love...
One thing we know for certain here at SMP Florida? Boca Grande weddings are amazing. And Boca Grande weddings featuring beautiful florals from Botanica International Design Studio and captured in stunning images by BinaryFlips Photography? Even better. Which is why we happen to be head over heels for this little gem of a day planned to perfection by...
The ever-classy Public Hotel is one of my favorite Chicago spots, and this endlessly chic soiree held at the iconic locale has my heart all a-flutter! Using the Pump Room's celebrity-laiden history as inspiration, this fête exudes a vibe of 40s elegance mixed with contemporary touches. Crazy-beautiful blooms by...
