I love surprises... and I happen to consider myself a master at keeping said surprises secret.  But, a surprise wedding?  That's a whole new level of secret keeping.  One that these two Jacksonville sweeties managed to pull off with flying colors, and the help of some behind-the-scenes friends and family.  The result?  A day that was chock-full of pretty (see: beautiful blooms from Shea Hopely Flowers + a plethora of gorgeous...

Jessica Lorren's photography slays me. And that slaying happens each and every time I meet one of her weddings. I think it's the mixture of dreamy Florida nuptials (Key West in this instance), an eye for just the right moments captured by her lens and of course all of said moments and that tropical backdrop wrapped up in the dreamiest film photography. It's a slam dunk in our book of favorites and you can see all the pretty festivities...

When I first locked eyes with this Montaluce Winery wedding from Heather Cook Elliott, I would have never, in a million years, guessed it belonged on the Georgia blog! The gorgeous rolling hills and lush vineyard locale took my mind directly to Tuscany, Italy, not Dahlonega, Georgia! It was at this little gem of a venue, in the North Georgia Mountains, where the sweetest...

We all know that Brooke Images has delivering the pretty down to a serious science, so when she sent along this beautiful Anna Maria Island affair, we simply couldn't wait to share.  And when I say "couldn't wait to share," I mean we put this glorious little number on the schedule faster than you could "wedding."  Because when drop-dead gorgeous bouquets from...

We sing the praises of backyard weddings on a daily basis here at SMP and with good reason.  They are awesome - and the perfect place to weave a day that is all at once elegant and chock-full of personality.

They say when you find the one, you just know.  And, yes, I am talking about the dress.  THE dress you'll wear to marry the love of your life on one of the most important days you'll ever have.  And for this drop-dead gorgeous (+ amazingly beautiful) bride, it wasn't the dress she expected to fall for, but this White by Vera Wang gown was most definitely made for her AND for her intimate seaside affair...

On a day that we stop and give thanks to all that we hold near and dear, it seems only right that we add this gorgeous St. Petersburg wedding to the list.  Because any wedding that boasts a sunny yellow color palette, a breathtaking seaside ceremony and an al fresco reception under towering palm trees is most definitely one that needs our complete and total appreciation.  The always amazing Scobey Photography was on hand to snap...
