This wedding. Oh my goodness, this wedding. Captured in such a stunning fashion by Smallpigart Photography, it has lifted my wedding-loving soul - and made me realize I have a strong affinity for weddings where lace and concrete dance happily together. And that dress by Ida Sjöstedt? Don't even get me started. It's to die. Sweet , strong, and beautiful all over - ...
Yellow and modern seem to be besties around these parts. They go together like peanut butter and jelly and when blanketing a gorgeous DC wedding captured by Gabe Aceves Photography, it's a sight to be seen. A gorgeous sight at that, made even more so by that show stopper of a dress and one that you can see from beginning to end right here.
I just love when we get a wedding where I can take one look at the lovebirds and instantly think, we could TOTALLY be best friends. The lovely touch of retro and the laid back reception (including more than a few fun games of table tennis) all at A & I Hall in Bangalow really make us true kindred spirits. This bride especially made the day her own by the exquisite DIY-ed lace flags, baking the cake all on...
Shabby chic + Lovisa Photo and it's at the Montage Beverly Hills equals me screaming like a school girl. This is one of those weddings that is the definition of exquisite taste and style. Inspired by the bride's favorite colors pink and silver, Catherine Cindy Leo created a...
It's personable. It's tasteful. It's a beautiful wedding captured by Jovan Matic Photography. I love how this bride stepped outside of the {antique crate} box in how she decorated her aisle and used her Swiss dot patterned wedding dress by Ivy & Aster as inspiration! There are simply too many dreamy details to this wedding, you'll have to...
Show me clean lines, pretty hues and details that dazzle like the ones that fill this pretty party - and I'll show you one seriously happy blogger. A blogger that may or may not just pin all the pretty in this post thanks to the gorgeous images by Elizabeth Scott Photography. The sweet maids dressed in LulaKate? Pinned. The chevron-infused stationery by...
It's often a process for a bride to select the little white number that ends up being the one, but this super-amazingly talented bride decided to skip the shops, instead designing MAKING her wedding dress! To carry the sewing theme throughout, the couple stitched their invitations, programs and place cards getting their fingers (literally) on every.single element and detail! Maggie Fortson Photography had the pleasure of photographing...
Prague holds a special place in my heart having studied there in college, so it was a real treat getting to stroll down the magical streets of this great city through the lens of Claire Morgan Photography. The bride and groom, a Canadian couple of Chinese descent, started with a traditional Chinese tea ceremony and continued the celebration with a church wedding (and a Vera Wang dress...
This glorious fete at Grand Oaks has the perfect blend of gorgeous antique charm and soft, flawless beauty. It is everything classic and perfectly graceful, just as you would hope every Southern Belle would be. From the amazing images from Peach Blossom Photography that make us...
Lovely LBBers, meet this wedding. She is full of personality, has wonderful style, and is a total blast to be around. Just ask Carla Ten Eyck, who spent her time behind the camera giggling along with the gorgeous couple at center. And Sixpence For Your Shoe can vouch for her sense of spunk after planning and designing her from her fun nautical pieces to her cowboy boot reception.
Does it get more romantic than marrying your special someone in the exact same spot where you got engaged? In the case of this bride and groom, yes it does! Due to the groom's military duties, the couple eloped and shared the most beautiful and intimate ceremony at Trois Estate at Enchanted Rock. The bride glowed with flowers in her hair and a loving twinkle in her eye that makes me positively giddy. Check out...

This wedding has a rich old-timey, estate-like elegance that has me totally gushing with praise! I love the vintage inspired details, and the setting is beyond stunning. Modern charm mixed with the grandeur of the Elm Court Estate property showcases New England's finest assets and this couple's timeless style. The full gallery of images is a must, thanks to...
If ever I were to have a do-over for my wedding, this my friends would be exactly what it would look like. From the sweet and simple chamomile and mint bouquet to the rolling green hills on the Hudson River, this wedding is just too adorable and pretty for words. They kept it simple and stuck with their casual, garden themed style and it all came together brilliantly. Lindsay Madden Photography captured all the details and...
These two cutie pies have a lot to celebrate and it all began with a surprise proposal on St. Lucia! Their gorgeous e-session was captured brilliantly by Elaine Palladino Photography and judging by the description of their wedding plans, their day is not only going to be off the charts fun, but super meaningful to boot! We can't wait to see it!
We've been basking in all things Elizabeth Messina today on SMP. And this next piece of Kiss the Groom perfection is the epitome of Elizabeth style. Soft, romantic, heartbreakingly beautiful. This is the canvas for her latest workshop which we figured was the perfect way to kiss your day with a bit of bridal inspiration - from the stunning palette to the whimsical details, from...

Who is graciously providing us with inspiration to the nines...
When the bride and groom can playfully don zebra and giraffe masks for their wedding portraits, count me in. As in, count me in as one of their (wannabe) best friends. They are just that cool. They enlisted Asheville Event Co. to plan a super gorgeous wedding, grabbed whitebox weddings to fill their albums with gold, and had a total blast. It doesn't get better than that...
We recently had the chance to sneak behind the Elizabeth Messina curtain of awesome and sit in on her Lovely workshop (appropriately titled might I add). It was filled to the brim with gorgeous details, crazy talented attendees and Elizabeth, who is a wealth of photography know-how and one of the coolest people on the planet <-- good combo. She also has amazingly talented friends. One of them being Leah MacDonald, founder of...
I struggled to find the appropriate words expressing my adoration for this totally vintage and perfectly pretty wedding in the California woods. Channeling their eclectic style and that of their closest friends, this bride and groom asked guests to don their best vintage outfit-and this crew dressed to impress! Kitschy details and homemade elements (like the bride's gorgeous felted flower bouquet!) brought everything together and ...
