For those of you who may have missed it, Monday was sort of a big deal here at SMP. A big, big deal really. Because not only did we get to know our sweet Libby just a little bit better, we spent the entire day soaking in all of the pretty that is Target's Registry. A registry, I might add...
You've probably figured out by now that we are completely obsessed with The Southernmost Hotel Collection and their many beautiful options for drop-dead gorgeous nuptials. And if we don't happen to say it enough, let me tell you... we love them. So spending our Saturday soaking in all of the beauty that is Key West? Fabulous. As is getting to know the new venue spaces ...
It's a well-known fact that we go just a tad bit crazy for all things photography here at SMP. And when a brand new (+ oh-so-talented) photog joins our advertising family, we throw a virtual dance party like you've never seen. One that celebrates uber-amazing images and breathtaking artistry, like the beauty you're about to lay your eyes upon from Liesl Cheney. She's what we like to call a "photog extraordinaire" and we're beyond...

Wrapping up a week at SMP is never easy. With so much pretty and too many perfect moments to count, topping it off is no simple task. But thanks to Landon Jacob and a team of top-notch vendors, we get to bid adieu with one of the loveliest styled shoots we've ever come across. It's the ultimate in bridal romance with a slew of BHLDN gowns that'll leave your jaw dropped. Join me in the...
Maybe I watched The Little Mermaid a few too many times when I was younger, but this anniversary shoot is kind of my dream come true. It has a moody, mermaid feel to it and I'm eating every single image right up. Lime Green Photography, you just made my weekend. I think this is the best way to scoot you off into your weekend, but don't forget to pop in...
The second I laid eyes on this gorgeous engagement shoot, I emailed Leila Brewster to get on her calendar for an anniversary shoot. It's true. Because it reminded me just how priceless images like these are. Images that capture such a fun time, and that speak way more than a thousand words. Images that are worthy of every wall in your home. So this couple? They hit the engagement session jackpot with this gallery of...
Truth be told, I completely instagram stalk the husband and wife duo behind Erin Hearts Court. They're totally the cutest and their little girl Avi is enough to send my baby obsession into overdrive. But on top of all that real life greatness, they also capture some of the most gorgeous weddings we come across. Weddings like this pastel perfection designed by ...
I'm totally adoring Amber's backstory to this lovely affair. We originally posted her best friends wedding shower back in 2009, and now we're back with babies on the brain. This stunning event, beautifully captured by the uber talented Anne Robert no less (I swear I can spot an Anne photo a mile away they're so darn pretty), casually celebrates a beaming mom-to be in the...
With all of the fabulousness that SMP Living has brought us this week, I can confidently say that we're geared up and ready for a lovely weekend ahead. So, set the wedding planning aside for a moment m'dears, 'cause you deserve a delicious cocktail...
I might have the absolute best thing ever to get you through the next few hours and off into your weekend. How does a trip to the Bahamas with the Karen Hill Photography sound? Like Heaven? It should, because it is. This wedding was stunning in that way that only a relaxing, yet totally awe-inspiring wedding can be. And the photos? Don't even get me started.
There is this restaurant near my parents house where you can get a $.99 cent margarita and I kid you not, it's the best damn drink you've ever had in your life. So good that it's the first and only stop I want to make on the way home from the airport. We even threw my son's 1st birthday at this very restaurant. I know...sad and awesome at the same time. Anyway, when my daughter discovered that she could guzzle pink lemonade like it's water, I simultaneously discovered that with a little of...
I must admit, when it comes right down to it, I'm a cold weather kind-of- girl. (I know, totally in the minority here!) But, it took less than five seconds with this e-sesh to have me convinced a life in the Las Vegas desert just might be my perfect cup of tea. Why? Because these images from Gaby J are filled with all the quiet romance and sheer beauty a girl could ever hope for. And that succulent bouquet from ...
Courtney Illfield just made my Friday. Made my weekend, really. Because this beautiful York affair she sent our way? It's perfection. An uber-elegant, vintage meets classic gem of day seriously overflowing with perfection. And from the very first light-filled image to the very last love-filled moment, it's the kind of affair that will fill your wedding lovin' souls with nothing but sweet, sweet happiness. And if that isn't...
After a long, long distance relationship (California to New York!), these two sweeties are moving to the same state and tying the knot in a beautiful August wedding. And to celebrate their upcoming nuptials (and co-habitation) they called upon the oh-so-talented MoAE Story Photography for a day of capturing all of that pre-wedding bliss. The result? A seriously stunning gallery chock-full of breathtaking backdrops, California...
This, my friends, is one dapper duo. A duo with a style all of their own. And that style? It's totally steal-worthy. Her Vera Wang gown and his Paul Smith get-up are simply perfection, and that's just the tip of all the fabulous that happened at their Fermenting Cellar soiree. It's image after image of...
I grew up in Montana, and spent my life dreaming of marrying in a barn or in a breathtaking field smack-dab next to a lake. But for the last few years, every time I even begin to imagine saying "I do," it's in a seriously fab urban loft space. And the wedding of my dreams? Well, it's a lot like this inspiration shoot created by Mandy Blair and Lauren Wave Weddings, aka, a...
Island perfection. That's really the only way I can describe this breathtaking St. Regis Princeville Resort affair, because, well... it's just that good. From the stunning ceremony overlooking the ocean to the thoughtful details that went into every last moment to a ballroom reception that just looks like a really fun time, it's a serious celebration in paradise. On hand to...
Umm... this wedding? It's awesome. Awesome in that way that every single Austin wedding we see seems to possess. You know what I am talking about - that crazy cool meets seriously sophisticated meets downright whimsical Austin charm? This wedding has it, and it's bursting from every last second designed by Ana Louisa Perkins, planned by Country Sugar and captured by...
