Real Wedding: Anna and Nicholas, II

This featured wedding is all about the venue. I died when I saw how ridiculously cool this space was, perfect for a casual but ultra chic couple. Infused with perfect little details and some gorgeous flowers, it's perfection.I am so loving Artisan Events, the photographers behind the affair, for sending it to us!

We have so much more from this lovely affair on the way!

Real Wedding: Anna and Nicholas

If today's earlier featured wedding captured my mantra "It's All in the Details" to perfection, this next one is the epitome of my second favorite tip...find a really cool venue and the rest will fall into place! Nicholas and Anna's wedding took place this past August at Salvage One, an architectural artifacts warehouse in Chicago. It was shot by one of my all time favorite photography studios...

Real Wedding: Margaret and Yancy, IV

There is only one word for Margaret and Yancy's wedding reception...OBSESSED. The modern and yet whimsical centerpieces, the perfectly crafted menus, the cake, the flowers, the everything. It's just perfection. Thank you so much to Margaret and Yancy for sharing their big day with us!

Real Wedding: Margaret and Yancy, III

Today's first real wedding must have been kismet. In my sleep deprived state (thanks to a teething baby), I totally forgot that it was St. Patrick's Day! And for an Irish girl to forget about St. Patty's, she better have a good excuse. Well, the Irish gods are shining because today's gorgeous wedding is all about the green. The FABULOUS, fabulous green.

I have to admit, it was the reception that really sold me on featuring this affair. It literally made me throw my hands up in the...

Real Wedding: Margaret and Yancy, II

I love today's featured wedding for two reasons...the first, is the gorgeous photography by one of our favorite Little Black Book members, 5ive15ifteen. The second is that the bride tended to the details with such a thoughtful energy, such an edited voice. She paid attention to the little things, those that she knew would really make for a lovely wedding...

Real Wedding: Margaret and Yancy

If I've said it once, I've said it a hundred times...it's all in the details. I am always on the hunt for weddings that capture the details to perfection so when I saw Margaret and Yancy's ridiculously lovely reception, I swooned! Before we get to that though, here is a first look at the beautiful couple and their oh-so-pretty day!

SMP Loves…Daffodils!

Well, not really. But, I LOVED this sweet daffodil arrangement that I spotted over on Design*Sponge. The shock of yellow paired next to the rough, silver vessel. It's perfection. Plus it reminds me that Spring is just around the corner, with its glorious weddings, perfect palettes and all around goodness. Thanks...
