I'm beginning to see this more and more often these days. Brides are opting for small, intimate wedding ceremonies with just a handful of people, and then throwing a big ol' bash shortly thereafter to celebrate with the world. It's a fabulous way to keep things personal, stay on budget and still enjoy this huge milestone surrounded by everyone you love. Founder and creative director of Pretty Plum Sugar, Charlotte Hale, and her new...

I felt like the luckiest duck to have met the KT Merry in person last week. And guess what? The lady behind the lens is every bit as wonderful as you'd think. With the kind of work that makes us squeal, sigh, and wish we could do our wedding days all over again, there's no doubt she's officially one of our faves. But just when I thought my girl crush couldn't get any bigger she sent us, dare I say, some of her best work yet. It's an...
You Chicago couples blow me away on a regular basis. I mean, not only are your weddings seriously chic and beyond breathtaking (they sooo are), but you always, always manage to incorporate the sweetest details into each and every aspect of your big day. Take for example this darling duo, whose gorgeous Germania Place affair featured fab florals from...
Tuscany is one of those places that I have never had the opportunity to visit, but just know I would love. Maybe it's because every wedding we receive from this Italian paradise is literally dripping with romance and every image captured looks straight from a fairytale. All I know is that I would rush off tomorrow to spend all eternity soaking in the fabulous countryside and old-world magic... and would say "I do" in an instant in one of Tuscany's amazing villas. So, this breathtaking affair...
Planning a wedding in just three months may seem like an impossible task, but if I've learned anything from these stunning Austin sweeties, it's that it CAN be done. And not only can it be accomplished, but with the help of devoted family and friends (+ awesome vendors), it can be accomplished with flying colors. I'm talking a rustic meets desert-inspired love-fest planned to perfection by Heavenly Day Events with amazing...
Let's face it, saying goodbye to the week here at SMP isn't always easy.

This beautiful Miami affair from 13:13 Photography, which is sooo full of sweetness (here's looking at you, DIY details), it was well worth the wait. Start your week off...

When this couple couldn't quite decide where they should celebrate their I dos - the country or the city - they ultimately decided, why not both? So that is just what they did. And when most couples struggle to plan one fête, this duo doubled up their planning and arranged for the most gorgeous of affairs in both the countryside of Millbrook and the stylish streets of Brooklyn. The result is a gallery of images captured by...
Reading love stories simply never will get old to me. And I do believe my heart will always pitter patter when I come across a story as sweet as this couple's. That darling tale lead them down the aisle of their perfectly Cape Cod wedding, which is something I'll simply never tire of either.

Few weddings stop me dead in my tracks but this one has reduced my brain to producing only short phrases like the colors: wildly vibrant, the Bride: insanely adorable, and the whole event: what dreamy Mcdreams are made of. The longer version tells the tail of a crazy talented group of vendors like Events of Love and Splendor, Heavenly Blooms...
