We love our dear friends over at NewlyWish for a million different reasons. So what's our one millionth and one reason for our obsession, you ask? It's all their fabulous entertaining tips to consider when building a registry that fits you. Because let's face it, when you register, you need to look at both your lifestyle and your entertaining style to make all those serious (yet obviously fun!) decisions. Some things to think about...
Any wedding held at the Foundry in New York is a gorgeous wedding in our book. It's one of those venues that marries the girly beauty of a pretty wedding with the industrial beauty of the space and the result is always a little bit of magic. So when you add a crazy beautiful red haired bride, a dream boat of a groom and a whole slew of terrariums, well...you have SMP gold. Photographed to utter perfection by...
Doesn't the Pacific Ocean make for the prettiest of wedding backdrops?!? I swoon every.single.time I see a stunning seaside fête... and this gorgeous L’Auberge Del Mar affair captured by Vallentyne Photography has left me seriously smitten this lovely Thursday morning. Set on a clifftop overlooking the adorable bride and groom's favorite Del Mar beach, this...
We all know I'm a huge sap when it comes to wedding films. They get me every time. And I know that I can't be the only one. The SMP offices are filled with saps like me - and judging from your comments on films of the past, a lot of you have the same sentimental gene. So when we received this Atlanta wedding film from Artworks Wedding Cinema, it was obvious that we had to share the smile-inducing, heart...
After poring through each and every image from this California wedding, I've realized two things: A) this Bride has crazy good style and it all started with that Preston & Olivia headpiece and B) Pinks and corals in a rustic setting are a match made in heaven. Not to mention that every single person at this fête looks like they are having the time of their lives. In my expert blogging opinion, these are all signs of a really great...
Calling all craft-superstars! This DIY wedding by A Simple Photograph is especially for you. The talented and motivated bride took on the bulk of the wedding projects herself from the invitations to the sugar cookie favors to all the desserts that she baked herself. To top it all off this celebration was held in the bride and groom's own backyard which made it just that much more special. ...
I don't think there is anything more fun than a destination wedding with all your closest friends and family in Spain. I'm loving the quirky seating chart which included fun descriptions of each guest on the back and the bold and bright flowers that certainly matched this adorable couple's spunky personality. Oh, and did I mention that they walked back down the aisle to The Power of Love by Huey Louis and the News? Ya, they are pretty awesome.
I dare any of you to spend ten minutes with this wedding and not want to crawl right into the overcast, but so happy and bright, Connecticut wedding. It's impossible. The wedding is so beautiful, and Raw Photo Design did a phenomenal job capturing the ambiance, that I have had the urge to jump into my computer screen and celebrate with these two beautiful people since I first opened it. But since that isn't possible, you will find me, all...
My giddy meter is registering some off the charts statistics this morning thanks to Beyond the Lens Photography and this seriously fun seaside soirée. With the most adorable little kiddos in attendance and a couple that you can tell is just head over heels for each other, it's hard not to adore every bit of this party. All the personal details were covered by this hands-on couple - making for...
Tory Williams Photography knocked this next little number so far out of the gorgeous wedding ball park my seaside soiree loving heart can't handle it! From the bride's one shoulder stunner gown to her to die for Jimmy Choo's, the lovely images of this picture perfect party just has my heart all a flutter. I do believe I will be staring at these images all day thanks to...
There's nothing dreamier than a California wine country wedding and this lovely Atwood Ranch affair is about as fabulous as it gets. The sweet combination of lush, romantic florals by Anne Appleman and the uber-gorgeous stylings of Julie Atwood Events is almost too much to comprehend... and I haven't stopped...
If you're a down-to-earth gal and a fabulous farm is your venue of choice then this Colorado wedding by Angie Wilson Photography will certainly make your heart flutter. It mixes some tried and true elements - mason jars, wildflower arrangements and honey favors - with some pops of fun and modern DIY details. I'm loving the perfect collection of stationery created by the crafty bride.
I swear I'll never get tired of pretty, little DIY weddings like this one from Brittrene Photo. The soft color palette with pops of gold sparkles literally has my heart all aflutter. Not to mention the gorgeous florals and the sweet-as-can-be attire of the littlest aisle attendants. There are so many steal worthy details nestled into this little charmer...
We think it's important to stop and get lost in a wedding video every once and awhile. OK, so maybe we think it's important to stop and get lost in a wedding video on a daily basis. Well this sweet as can be film by Bernard Lau Films can be your daily dose prescribed by SMP. It'll most definitely leave a smile on your face - so take a litte time to get lost today, it's so worth it. [iframe http://player.vimeo.com/video/31432220 601...
San Francisco weddings always have a way of leaving me speechless... and this stunning ballroom affair by Meg Perotti has literally left me grasping for words. The fabulous florals by Chestnut & Vine, the gorgeous purple hues, the lovely paper goods by Hello! Lucky, the adorable bride and groom... I. am. in. LOVE. with...
You know we go gaga for a modern wedding (ok, we go a little nuts for ANY wedding), but can you really blame us when they look this pretty? Kate Whelan Events™, was on board to make sure every detail of this modern fête was perfectly placed, and how much do you just love their ceremony set up? VIP front row complete with comfy couches? SO fab. But the pretty doesn't end there...
We all love a good wedding film here at SMP. Sometimes it's the tear jerkers that get us going. Other times, when a creative video, with something we've never seen before hits our inbox, it quickly becomes the new Must See in the SMP offices. And sometimes, we find a video that is just so happy, so energetic, that we can't help but smile all day long after watching, sharing, and re-watching again. So today, we're sharing a fantastic film from...
Al fresco nuptials run the gamut in terms of style. We are talking everything from rustic country fêtes to elegant New England garden affairs and a new group that is quickly making its way to the top of our favorites list: open air dining of the urban garden variety like this Los Angeles number held at Cafe Pinot. Benj Haisch Photography captured all the festivities laced...
I have to admit that I read the words from the bride before I even laid my eyes upon these images from Articulate Photo and I was already in love with the concept of this wedding. Little did I know I was about to fall even more in love with it when I saw the pretty, pretty design by MARRIED by Jessie Abrams Baca. I love that this art loving couple...
We are known for bringing it in a big way but today we are going huge with a heavy duty dose of inspiration. We searched high and low on the main page to bring you our favorite Illinois weddings and, boy oh boy, did we find some good ones.
