A wedding on the family dairy farm might just take the cake for romance, but we'll get to that in a minute. This bride said she got a lot of the inspiration for her stunning day on SMP, and that's totally obvious. Everything from the minty color palette to the gorg blooms from Butterfly Petals are totally our favorite. But the sweetest part of the day? The sentiment behind the venue.
Ballroom weddings have a way of stealing my heart. And when they're designed in the hands of Green Ribbon Party Planning Co and Brown Paper Design, you know they'll be spot-on amazing. From the sparkling chandeliers to the bride's dreamy Kirstie Kelly gown, the result was basically a fairytale brought to life. ...

So when a trio of talented ladies -- Belathée Photography, Kirstie Kelly and The Bloom of Time -- got together to celebrate flower girl frocks that break the mold, I knew...
Engagement sessions are kind of my thing. Don't get me wrong, my soul melts for a good wedding, but the pure, unabashed, let's grow old together kind of romance tied up in an e-sesh? Well, there's just nothing better. And today, lovelies, we get to indulge in an engagement like no other. An engagement where the leading lady in love just so happens to be the fabulous Katrina of Tone it Up! So sit back and get super excited, because ...

It's Messina Madness. But first, we're diving head long into layers of Dreamy McDreaminess in the form of short dresses, long dresses, pretty dresses, so freaking fabulous we want to eat them...
We all remember watching the Royal Wedding. At five in the morning, a laughable amount of tears streaming down our faces. It was a game changer, after all. The kind of wedding that will be remembered forever, that brought the classics squarely back into fashion. The kind of wedding that urged tradition and ceremony, understated elegance and quiet beauty. Much like today's wedding...a game changer in its own right...photographed to heartbreaking perfection by...
Every now and then we get our hands on a wedding so breathtaking, so pick-your-jaw-up-off-the-floor beautiful, we can hardly believe our luck.

And although I fall hopelessly in love nearly every hour on SMP, I'm not sure I've ever fallen quite as hard as I have with today's stunner. The kind of wedding...
For anyone that is a regular SMP reader you know that I am a total sucker for two things...perfect white weddings and anything Jose Villa. So what do you get when you put those two little numbers together? You get a very happy blogger who just happens to be dorking out on many different levels...from squeals of glee, to wedding butterflies, to maybe even a high kick or two. Or three. You get a dancing, twirling, whirling...
