So I've been totally bubbling over with excitement the past little while because I knew we had a bit of a special treat in store for you guys today. If you've yet to hear about Laundry By Shelli Segal, you need to stop what you're doing right now and re-evaluate your life. Because this shop is chalk full of beauty in gorgeous dress format. And today we're featuring their stunning Spring/Summer 13' bridal ensemble collection. Because when it...

I may have mentioned a time or two (or three or four) that I adore Winter weddings, but I think it's most definitely something worth repeating. Because Winter weddings? Well, they are amazing... especially when they are as fabulous as this Bloomington affair captured beautifully by Maggie Fortson Photography. A vintage chic celebration chock-full of sophisticated blooms from Shari's Enchanted Florist, it's sweet DIY details meets...
I could say this wedding is charming, but that wouldn't even do it justice. It's an entirely new level of charming, and one that takes darling up a notch. It's gorgeous Washington backdrops meets handmade loveliness, and it's all topped off with some of the most beautiful blooms by Florarama Modern Design. That's just scratching the surface of this sweet fête captured by ...
We've swooned over a Savannah wedding a time or two on SMP, and for good reason - they are always show-stoppers. Maybe it's the spanish moss, perhaps it's the southern charm, but I happen to think it's the people that are attracted to that beautiful city that truly make it special. People like the ones who fill the gorgeous images by Memories N More at this stunning soiree planned to perfection by the Bride and ...
You know when you log onto your computer first thing in the morning, and you're kind of in a haze waiting for that coffee to kick in? I'm about to knock you right out of it. Because I have a wedding from Viera Photographics +Thomas Bui Lifestyle that is just going to make you smile. It's going to brighten your day nice and early. It's the perfect amount of quirk, with...
Rain or shine, this wedding is stunning. So stunning, that anyone peeking at Julie Massie's photos or Thomas Bowen's film would never, ever guess it was pouring buckets mere minutes before the ceremony. But with Holly Chapple on hand to design the day, it's really no wonder the rain didn't dampen spirits in...
Alright SMPers, we're shifting focus today and talking all-things-Amalfi-Coast. My boyfriend and I recently returned from a week stint in what can only be described as the most beautiful place on earth (not that I'm biased or anything). I'll be sharing some of my photographic proof later on today, but in the meantime we need to ensure we're equipped with the essentials before we head off on our virtual journey. As a sleepy sea-side Italian slice of beachy, mountainy heaven, you really don't need...
When two cuties as adorable as this tie the knot in a classic meets preppy soiree, magical things are just bound to happen. Like an uber-stunning Cypress Grove Estate House affair filled to the brim with heartwarming moments and beyond whimsical touches. I'm talking lush florals from Blossoms Orlando, a yummy cake from ...
When it comes to gorgeous gowns and the ultimate in customer service, look no further than New York's premier bridal salon, Bridal Reflections. From jaw droppingly gorgeous wedding dresses to the sweetest outfits for your littlest attendants, they've got it all, and it's all amazing. Now get this, my dears, this month, you're invited to preview the brand-new...
A wedding captured by Troy Grover is a thing to be celebrated. Especially when that wedding includes a Bride in one of the prettiest gowns ever. Ever. But this is so much more than the dress. It's an all white wedding crafted by Gatherings By Stacie + Floral Occasions and the result is true Southern California...
The best part of being bride and groom (besides the obvious getting married part) is the chance to play model for a day. To get the most gorgeous captures of you and your sweetie all dressed to the nines and so very in love. And whenever we get the chance to sit back and soak in a pre-wedding portrait session, you can always count me in. MoAE Story Photography has a wildly talented way with the camera and filled the most stunning full...
It absolutely never fails. Weddings at the SmogShoppe are some of the stylish around. It somehow attracts the some of the most seriously chic couples, and this Bride and Groom fall beautifully in that category. With only a month to plan their dream fête, they pulled together their family and friends and a few stellar vendors - and that day? It couldn't have been more perfect.
It's not every day two childhood friends become husband and wife. But when it happens, you better believe the wedding will be a celebration like no other. And while every detail of this Coyote Ranch wedding is spot-on stunning, it's the love that steals the show...the heart and the soul that outshines any amount of pretty. See the day unfold through...
Please excuse me while I pick my jaw up off of the floor because this 30th birthday dinner party is completely beyond. Designed by Amanda O'Shannessy and photographed by the birthday girl herself, Melanie Duerkopp, there isn't a single thing I'd change. And if I'm being honest, it's the first time I've ever legitimately looked forward to the idea of a 30th birthday. A casual...
This affair is all about sweet farm style. But underneath all those layers of rustic beauty are so many cool details. For instance, this couple opted for a Thanksgiving Day wedding complete with turkey dinner and in true rustic Idaho fashion, guests were transported from the main house to the barn by horse and carriage. But maybe the best detail of all? All this gorgeous decor and styling was crafted by the Groom! Have a look at all the pretty captured by ...
As a lover of all things wedding and a new mother to boot, it's not hard to get me teary eyed. I got a little misty eyed the other day over a car commercial. But this couple has me straight up weeping. Frenzel Studios captured a love so pure, I didn't even have to read their story to know they were madly and deeply in love. But then I read their story. And oh my goodness, pass the tissues. This is a...
We love a good wedding but behind all those celebrations are other amazing celebrations like showers and rehearsal dinners that so often get any airtime. Until today. This rehearsal dinner is laid back yet wholeheartedly elegant (kind of how I want my entire life to look. Think fire pits, a beautiful cabin overlooking the water and family and friends gathered in the backyard for yummy eats. It's the makings of the perfect Vermont rehearsal dinner and ...
So consider yourself warned. This recipe is like um, maybe the best thing I have ever made. Okay well, the second best, next to last week's triple chocolate donuts. Regardless, they are good. Like CRAZY good. Here's the backstory. I kept seeing these little twix-like bars making their way...
Australia, Australia, Australia. If I could bottle up your style and take it for my own I so, so would. Because it just seems completely natural for everyone who calls your beautiful country home, and this wedding captured by Danni Knight Photography is the perfect example. With an easy elegance that can't be matched and a lineup of the most adorable flower girls you ever did see - this stylish soiree just proves my point...
I've never really had a sweet tooth. I can walk past a plate of donuts and cookies all day long, but give me some french fries and ranch and I can't look away. The one exception? Cotton candy. I love that bundle of sugary sweetness with a crazy passion, i.e., I'll stop at every fair and carnival along my route home to stock up on bags of blue and pink goodness. I am not kidding. So, when I spotted this beautiful shoot from the geniuses at ...
