At night I dream of parties. The prettiest, most colorful soirees full of music, laughter and love - SO much love. And when I wake up, I spend my day starring at fabulous fêtes worthy of my wildest dreams here on SMP. This is one of those weddings - seriously dream-worthy, if not better. With a Bride and Groom so in love you can't help but swoon, and gorgeous images by Picotte Weddings that capture every perfect detail - the...

There is just something about Saddlerock Ranch. A place I most definitely need to see with my very own eyes at some point, because the pretty parties that parade out of that Malibu venue are just to die. Seriously, they are beyond. But when Amber Events is holding the styling reins and Picotte Weddings is...
You all know that we have a soft spot for California celebrations here on SMP. It's just that as a Texas girl (hot, humid) living in Boston (cold, cold, very cold) the idea that you can have an al fresco affair without a plan B is like crazy talk. So to see a perfect outdoor wedding in all its California glory...well, it's like wedding crack for me. Then, when the bride and groom design an affair that is also stunningly beautiful with details that blend so seamlessly into the backdrop of the...
Get ready to be wowed in a big way. To be completely inspired to the point your mind is floating with fabulous for the rest of the day (or week even).

It's luxe, cultural and overflowing...

And this couple, my oh my are...
I am a sucker for pink. Anything pink. Pink walls, pink pillows, pink dresses, the works. So when it comes to pink weddings, well...pitter patter central. Add to that a jaw dropping collection of reds and oranges, aquas, greens and yellows. And the most cry-worthy peonies you've ever seen in your life. Then layer it with handmade details sitting pretty next to uber-elegant design and well, you have SMP perfection. This wedding that the FAB (and I mean more fab than the word fab could ever...
Saddlerock Ranch. Malibu's gift to brides everywhere complete with Zebras (for the pop of print), camels (for that touch of whimsy) and the most picturesque of gorgeous backdrops for photo opps around every corner. And although I'm pretty sure that this particular wedding would have looked just as beautiful in a backyard or in a ballroom, the Saddlerock Ranch has taken the loveliness to an entirely new level. With heartstoppingly...
Two shoots, two amazing photographers, one day and one darling design guru make for an afternoon post full of pretty, pretty inspiration. So get settled and get ready to soak it all in!

An English garden wedding. That just sounds like a dream, doesn't it? Something out of a fairy tale or a Jane Austen novel.

This team, including the talented Suthi of Picotte Weddings behind the camera (both photography and...
