Good morning, SMPers and a very happy 4th of July to you! Before you head off to celebrate the holiday with friends, family and fireworks, we just HAD to share this stunning Lake Geneva soiree to add a touch of downright awesome to your festivities. It's chevron linens meets pretty, pretty tulips by Bloom Floral & Event Design meets beyond lovely images by...
July 2012
It is only fitting that we celebrate today by gazing at this all-American Thomas Bennett House wedding. Luke Wilson Special Events made sure no nuance of Southern charm went without a nod (hi, cotton boutonnières), and blended them like a perfect strawberry banana smoothie with classic prep. We have all the final results, courtesy of ...
Before you head out to celebrate the good ol' US of A today, we just had to share a bit of DIY inspiration we couldn't keep from you any longer. It's easy peasy but makes a big impression, and I do believe that is our favorite kind of DIY. It's from the lovely Shawna at Event Styling by Shawna Marie, so you know it's stylish as all get out, and definitely worthy of filing away for your next shindig! Supplies: A...
What better way to celebrate America's independence than with a good ole fashioned southern, vintage style photo shoot by Berrytree Photography! The unbelievably charming table arrangements and elements of gingham with lace have all been so beautifully coordinated by Chancey Charm Weddings and I absolutely love the splashes of cotton that ...
Happy fourth of July SMP Massachusetts! In honor of this fab summer holiday, we thought we'd share with you this adorable couple's e-session. They sashayed all around the city with Mikhail Glabets Photography and got some seriously silly, not to mention totally gorgeous pics, and lucky for us there's even more right here in the full gallery!...
Before the hot dog eating, watermelon seed spitting, cozy up to your hunny under the fireworks kind of day gets into full swing, we wanted to stop by with our one wish for you. We hope that you enjoy this Independence Day, lovely little LBBers! Don your chicest red, white, and blue and have a wonderful, special holiday! xoxo Photography: 217 Photography / Planning:...
Seeing as how today is the Fourth of July (whoop whoop) which hopefully encompasses a fun day off, celebrating with family, sun and a sparkling ending...this engagement shoot by Kristin Vining is about as fitting as you can get. It's fireworks and a cute couple with splashes of red, white and blue sprinkled throughout. Start your day off in a festive way with even more right here...
New York City – the magical spot where engagement photo dreams are made. And the master behind this particular dream making sess is Caroline Frost; a woman who knows her way around a camera. From sweet moments in Central Park to a cozy drink at their local watering hole, this couple is bringing us along for the ride and what a pretty one it is.
It's 4th of July, the sun is shining and there's a whole lot of BBQ yumminess in our future... what a wonderful day to celebrate. So wonderful, in fact, that we couldn't help but spice it up even more with this breathtaking Key Largo affair by Bob Care Photography. Filled to the very brim with gorgeous florals by Parrish Designs, clear blue skies and perfectly pretty...
It seems like I've spent hours searching for just the right words to describe this breathtaking Los Angeles Country Club affair and, try as I might, I'm still coming up short. Sure, I could say the images by the ever-amazing Amy and Stuart Photography will literally stop your heart with their beauty or that the fab stylings of Jo Gartin of ...
Colorado, can we just say, you have been extra fabulous lately? Everything that has come across my desk from your beautiful, beautiful state has been extra special. A little rustic. A lotta beautiful. A gorgeous dress, a fabulous bouquet, a delish cake. We've always been big fans of the Rocky Mountain state, but thanks to weddings like this stunning soiree from IN Photography, we're quickly approaching number one fan status. And once...
It probably won't surprise you that I'm a complete wedding photography junky. I eat it up by the heaping spoonfuls and there are a few shots that get me every time. First looks send me into an emotional tailspin. That walk back down the aisle as newly crowned husband and wife; also a tear-jerking favorite. And last but certainly not least any and all images containing long, flowing tulle veils. I DIE for those images and this wedding captured by ...
Even though the majority of us here at SMP are married (and have been for a few years), one of our favorite pastimes is picking palettes for our dream wedding do-overs. It's true. We love pretend styling, and may or may not spend hours on ...
Beautiful, passionate and colorful . . . I'm not just talking about the couple in these lovely photos by Caspix, but their entire wedding day is dressed head to toe in love. The landscape surrounding Centennial Parklands Dining pretty much looks like it was lifted out of Alice in Wonderland and can we just put our hands together...
Apricot is this bride and groom's jam. The creamy love child of orange and peach is the featured color of these Seed Floral flowers, and well, this couple actually hand made apricot jam for friends and fam to take home from their Dominick's reception. Shoe lovers, you can stop here today with this bride's platinum ...
Just in time for the 4th of July, we have an engagement that is infused with love and some good old fashion sparklers. Because, really, who doesn't love sparklers, or love for that matter? I'm President of the Love and Sparklers Fan Club and I happen to think this sweet engagement captured by Ashley Biess Photography should be our anthem. See more from these two firework wielding love birds...
This sweet photo shoot by Paperclip Collective goes to show you don't need much more than sparkling (pink) wine, strawberries and some fresh-cut tulips to create the perfect wedding backdrop. Romantic touches like the bride's birdcage veil and vintage pearls make for a shoot you'll be sure to pull inspiration from! See the rest right here....
If you've been dreaming about what a beach wedding in Costa Rica may look like, you're certainly in for a treat this morning! Thanks to Carla Ten Eyck Photography who captured the gorgeous work of this fab dream team that included Datura: A Modern Garden, Jubilee Events...
Texas and rustic elegance go hand in hand. They're like campfires and s'mores; both equally awesome on their own but so much better together. And while we're at it, another great combo can be found in the peachy florals of Unexpected Elements, the vineyard filled backdrop of Driftwood Estate Winery and all the lovely imagery captured by ...
From the sparkly Jimmy Choo stilettos to the gorgeous tablescapes filled with roses, hydrangeas, and peonies, this Boston Harbor Hotel wedding is downright gorgeous. There are so many details that we are seriously dying over, one of which are those quirky mustache flask groomsmen gifts. How amazing are those? They are a fun contrast to this beautiful, elegant day which was photographed perfectly by Captured Photography by Jenny. It really...
