It has been awhile since we have posted one of our favorite Friday features but it was well worth the wait. If you are new on the block, we'll catch you up to speed before we dive in to all the pretty stuff. Today is the day for another From Inspiration to Reality feature where some of our favorite vendors take an inspiration board and turn it into real life...
I know that we see a ton of gorgeous weddings on SMP every day. Which also means that we see a ton of gorgeous venues grace our pages. But I have to say, secretly, my favorite venue of all time is the Saddlerock Ranch in Malibu. I think it might be the zebras that get to make their way into the wedding photos which is kind of like the coolest wedding detail EVER, but it's also the pure beauty of the space. The graceful, unfussy, totally movie star gorgeousness of the space. And this wedding...
Jessica and Mike's beautiful Colorado wedding at Crooked Willow Farms in Larkspur is being shared with us today by Debbie at Save The Date Events. And as a real treat, here are a few sweet, sweet words from the handsome groom!
It has almost become cliché to say “I married my best friend”, but I...
Before I started blogging...I was definitely a glam wedding kind of girl. We're talking chandeliers, TONS of peonies, white, white and more white. But having pored over literally thousands upon thousands of weddings every day for the last three years, my appreciation and love for the sweet backyard style wedding is quickly creeping to the top of my favs. A wedding like this next one, photographed to perfection by Jesse Leake, where the...
We have been busy, busy bees around here working on some exciting new features that are sure to delight all of you bride and grooms to be. We know that wedding planning can be crazy at times (or most of the time) and we want to make it as easy as possible on you. That is where our awesome new feature, the Events Calendar, will save the day. Think of this is as your own personal assistant for wedding events in your area.
There is something so fabulous about a preppy, pink and navy, New England wedding. Kind of Kennedy-esque and yet totally chic and modern. Well, this wedding, photographed by the FABULOUS (and I mean fabulous...sweet, kind, so ridiculously talented) Lauren Killian of Person + Killian Photography in Boston, is the epitome of New England Chic. And I heart every last bit of it.
This yummy, yummy, wedding took place in the deep darks of a Portland, Oregon wine cellar. It was the perfect setting for an intimate, romantic wedding because the tiny space was filled with family and friends. The bride and groom opted for soft candlelight to highlight the flowers and wine barrels and the overall effect was both cozy and luxuriously romantic. This is one of our favorites this summer because it just goes to show that a wedding needn't match the cost of your first mortgage.
We love pretty much every single little detail that goes into the making of a wedding...the flowers, the fashion, the lovvvee. But one of the things that really gets us, really makes us stand at attention is coming across a wedding that is a true reflection of the bride and groom. These are the celebrations that we can't get enough of. The ones that we earmark and come back to time and again and Anda Marie Photography has managed to capture...
We are wrapping up another day of gorgeous upon gorgeous wedding and this last number photographed by Cedar House Photography is what they call the "icing on the cake." Seriously if I weren't already married, I just might run away with all these beautiful flowers. They are THAT good. Plum Sage Flowers was the mastermind behind these beauties and we think they are...
I've been staring at this next wedding for the last hour and something about it just kind of takes my breath away. It's this perfect combination of backyard effortlessness and total elegance. A combo that isn't that easy to pull off this beautifully. I think that it's probably the insanely gorgeous flowers that has taken this design to an entirely new level...but the perfectly gorgeous bride in her perfectly gorgeous gown, the wedding cake that I want to magically appear at my front doorstep...
Maneli and Tim were married this past May at her parent's home in Great Falls, Virginia. Between the vibrant garden colors, her spectacular Oscar de la Renta gown, the adorable vintage mini-Cooper ... we could go on and on ... this is one wedding that guests will remember vividly! Pineapple Productions has shared some of...
If nothing else, this wedding is going to make you smile. Chances are, it's going to do a whole lot more than that, but at the bare bones minimum...you're going to fall hard for the charm and total fun that is gracing each and every photograph of this wedding. Held in Mackay, Idaho (which to be honest, I had NO FREAKING CLUE was so unbelievably gorgeous) this wedding is such a lesson to all of us...a reminder to kick up our heels and have a really great time on the day that should always be...
You know, these real wedding Wednesdays are a little bittersweet for me. On one hand, we get to show off all of the gorgeousness that comes into our in-box every day. But on the other, we move from one wedding to the next so quickly that just as I am falling in love with one of these gems, another wedding totally steals me away! It's a love/hate thing. But the good news is that our galleries live on the blog forever and ever, so anytime you see something you heart, make sure to bookmark it...
This Florida wedding is so full of lovely vintage inspiration, it just might be my absolute favorite. The bold punches of color are complete perfection. But wait till you here this – ALL of this fabulousness came together because of a wonderful vintage headpiece that the bride picked up at an antique shop. How is that for inspiration? For more of those tropical hues, check out the gallery filled to the brim with...
We are going to switch gears a bit and give you some inspiration of the artsy, rustic kind. Totally different from the Swiss wedding we just pored over but breathtaking none the less. If you are a fan of gorgeous, organic florals, then this particular wedding is surely going to make you smile. A bevy of power hitters were at work behind the scenes to make this day come to life. From the photography by Maggie Conley , to the...
For me, the highlight of Mark and Kristi's wedding? Fabric flowers. FABRIC FLOWERS! They are awesome!! But of course, there is more. Much, much more!
Shared with us by LBB photographer, Sean Flanigan, Mark and Kristi are passionate about sustainable design. On Sean's blog, you will...
This week happens to be a nice, short work week but that doesn't mean we are going to deprive you of any wedding pretties. In fact, we have a ton of gorgeous inspiration up our blogger sleeves and we are going to be laying them all out today, one fabulous wedding at a time. We'll give you a snippet of each wedding and all you have to do is click on the gallery of the weddings you are dying to see more of. We have a feeling you are going to be checking out each and every gallery but that isn't...
This wedding is exploding with gorgeous vignettes full of little details and we seriously can't stop staring. The bride's french family traditions were infused everywhere and we are going gaga over the cute-to-boot eye candy. From the unstructured florals to the glamorous chandeliers hanging from the trees, this wedding has french garden chic written all over it. Check out more prettiness in the gallery. XO, ...
This next wedding, brought to us by Matthew Morgan Photography, was a true labor of love for not only the bride and groom but for all their friends and family as well. It is a perfect example of a community coming together to celebrate a marriage. And, it is pretty hard to believe that they accomplished all of this in only four months! There are so many little details (think, a Polaroid wall and rustic furniture vignettes)...
