Father of the Bride is a favorite movie around the SMP offices, so when this ridiculously adorable bride mentioned she had infused a little FOTB into her Wisconsin wedding, we were all smitten. Captured by Anna Page Photography, the wedding definitely lives up to the hype - it's gorgeous, fresh, and clean - and of course, centered around two super cute lovebirds. We've even got a fantastic little film from...
It wasn't long ago that we spent an entire day obsessing over every last ounce of this stunning Chicago soiree, so it pretty much goes without saying that we were ECSTATIC to spend even more time wrapped up in this wonderful affair. Yep, thanks to the geniuses at I Do Films, we're devoting our...
Remember this lovely little fete? We certainly haven't forgotten it and loved it so much we just had to share this sweet, little film by I Do Films, that totally completes the picture of this classic soiree. I Do Films has captured the feel of Chicago and the meaningfulness of this sweet...
When the bridesmaids arrive by boat, you know it's going to be a great wedding - and when the bride happens to be a wedding planner we love, you know it's going to be a pretty wedding.

There's just something about a traditional wedding, with the grand dress and the ballroom reception, that sends my heart all a flutter. And this Chicago stunner by Artisan Events, Inc. is the kind of soiree that sends my heart racing AND leaves me completely speechless. It's true. From the beautiful ceremony and reception locations to the fabulous florals and lighting by...
When I heard there was a wedding waiting in my inbox that was inspired by, in my humble opinion, the best wedding film of all time - Father of the Bride - I couldn't open it fast enough. When I saw that it was from Avery House, some of our favorite Mid-Western Photographers, I may or may not have let out a little gasp. And as I poured over image after image of this gorgeous Indiana affair, the gasping turned to squealing in my...
I must admit, I am ever so slightly jealous of this Chicago wedding. It has more of a green thumb then I could ever hope to muster and the result is a delightfully eclectic soirée in Chicago all caught on film by Lark Photography. The bride and groom wanted to create a day that was not only a reflection of their love and commitment but environmentally conscious (like really, really conscious) to boot and all hand-crafted, sourced...
We are wrapping up another wonderful wedding Wednesday with a wedding that mixes both vintage and industrial elements like a champ. I'm talking warm, rich tones juxtaposed with girly lace and two of the cutest little attendants you ever did see. Alec Vanderboom certainly worked his camera magic on this one.
