I hope you aren't on wedding overload quite yet because we are only halfway through today's lineup and it just keeps getting better and better. Take for instance this cute couple from Virginia who had a lovely outdoor soiree packed to the gills with vibrant color and fun details and get this, the bride designed EVERYTHING. She is an aspiring wedding planner and I think she may have found her niche. Check out the...
I'll admit that we go crazy for gorgeous, meticulously planned and executed weddings BUT (yes, there is a BUT) we also go nutzo for intimate, super, duper sweet affairs. You know, the ones that pull at your heart strings and have you balling like a little baby because they are just.that.sweet. This is a secret wedding sent to us by Simply Jessie Photography and it falls right into that category. This couple absolutely could not wait...

I am definitely a vintage girl at heart but I can surely appreciate a well executed modern affair and our next wedding in the line-up is just that and oh so much more. It is the essence of urban, modern, lofty glamour and it's GORG. We are taking a peek inside this NYC wedding through the lens of photographer Michelle Arlotta and there is so, so much more in the gallery. Check out the bright whites and the bold details by clicking...

As a self-proclaimed design geek, I've always loved the pairing of contrasts.
When I visited Sonoma for the first time nearly ten years ago, you would have thought I was looking at the eighth wonder of the world. I was so taken aback by the rustic, understated elegance, by the total, unabashed beauty of the area, you could have knocked me over with a feather. So although I know we feature a lot of wine country weddings, each one is incredibly beautiful and I honestly can't help but share the goodness with you. And this wine country wedding is no exception. Photographed...
We love a short wedding dress, and this one does not disappoint. The bride found this sweet little BCBG dress on eBay for just $110...SCORE! Even though the bride says that the "one word to sum up the plan for our wedding would be budget", they certainly did not scrimp on style. They infused their personalities throughout (check out the adorable mad libs below) and handmade all the papergoods themselves. We are swooning over their creative style and are certain you will soon be too.
This is a super-gorgeous wedding that was sent to us by our great friend, Tifany at Gourmet Invitations. Classic. Elegant. It's a true testament to knowing what you love ... knowing what is most important to you on your wedding day ... and going to town with it!
First, ~ the dress!
I knew my “perfect dress” had to be lace, and that once I found it, we’d design everything else...
We like to chat about our potential wedding do-overs a lot around here. Not only because it would be SO much fun to do it again but also because of all those lovely little tidbits that we miss about our weddings. Our vows, the celebration, the fun, the laughter, the joy, the flowers ... our dresses... our invitations... our wedding registry. Not even kidding. How often to you get to pick out your presents!?!? It's pretty much the opportunity to totally outfit your next stage in life and...
Are you sitting down? You may want to because this next wedding from Raya Carlisle and designed by the wedding dream duo Bash, Please is out of this world. My favorite weddings are those that show off a couple's unique style and this one is full of personality. It is an explosion of color and crazy fun. I am amazed how they transformed the ...

We're talking DIY projects, super cool real weddings, product finds and oh, SUPER fab deals and steals that are EXCLUSIVELY available to newsletter readers.

Little known tidbit. A lot of the inspiration shoots that we feature come from photography workshops. Where some of the best photographers in the world essentially re-create a wedding so that they can impart their words of wedding wisdom to up and comers. It's pretty genius if you ask me. Photographers get to learn how to snap all of the little details that make a wedding so swoon worthy...and WE get to eat up all of the eye candy! Well, some of the best photography workshops come from the...
We are uber excited to share with you today that we have added another fabulous vendor to our little ol' SMP Shop and when we say fabulous, we mean these chicks KNOW their wedding accessories.

Well we are DYING to spill the beans...
The backdrop alone for today's wedding...is basically as good as it gets. And when we saw the entire wedding unfold through the lens of Hello Super Studios, we completely fell in love. It's the most intimate, sweet, absolutely lovely affair we've seen in a long time and we are thrilled to be able to share it with you today. From the bride's Audrey-ish gown to the peonies lining the tables, every little...
If you have a sweet tooth, we have some seriously irresistible wedding goodness coming your way. Two words. Hula hoops. Need I say more?? The couple was engaged at an amusement park, so it's no surprise that their nuptials were a summertime, fun-fest. Photographed by the lovely Kristin Vining and planned by the talented ladies at Weddings and the City, it's a little bit...
We have a little something different to share with you today. It involves an adorable couple, their first love nest, amazing photography by Alison Conklin...oh and the couple's precious pup. In celebration of buying their very first home together, Nicole and Garri decided to celebrate in style with a little love session on a private farm in Hershey, Pennsylvania.This is such an amazing way to document a huge milestone in your life...

To send you off into the weekend with an oooohhhh and and ahhhhhh ... we have one more wedding sent to us by the terrific team at 31FILMS! Seriously, there is no other word for this wedding except exquisite. From the bride and her amazing gown to the venue and the totally decadent decor ... this wedding is e x q u i s i t e ! Janae and Kenny were...
My favorite sorts of weddings are those that don't follow any kind of style rules. Those weddings that layer on the personality and bring in unexpected, fun elements that totally reflect the bride and groom's personality. Which is pretty much exactly what this next gorgeous couple did (and don't you think the bride looks like Leighton Meester?). It's a little bit rustic, a little bit glam, a little bit bohemian and a little bit victorian...and totally, completely, ridiculously lovely.
This wedding is gorgeous. Flat. out. gorgeous. And it's a bit of a departure from some of the weddings that we've been featuring lately...with a rich, warm palette and a sense of sophistication that literally gave me butterflies. It's the twinkle lights, the ceramic vessels, the rustic and yet unbelievably elegant florals, the ridiculously gorgeous bride in her ridiculously gorgeous gown...it's the layer upon layer of style that make this wedding, designed by the fabulous Rebecca Feeney of...
