"Enjoy Cupcakes"

On a day like today, when the East Coast is about to get blasted with a few feet of snow, it makes me extra reminiscent of my home state. You know that place where the sun is shining 24/7?

Marianne Wilson Photography captured all the sweet and silly moments that made this wedding so...

I have two words. Holy. Moly. The light in this Los Olivos wedding is phenomenal, and Chris Humphreys Photography captured it in a way that has sent all of the SMP offices into a swooning fit. The soft sunset peeking over the mountains in the distance has highlighted the gorgeous couple, and accentuated their stunning soiree, in a way that is beYOND. Beyond. And there is even more...
