Today I'm excited to share my must-haves for Fall: a cozy fisherman's sweater, a great pair of oxfords, a felt hat, black skinny jeans and a soft...

I'm going to dare say that today's herb-infused festivities have earned a seat in my top ten favorite days on SMP, which may or may not have something to do with my love for food! And there's no doubt that the talents of Park Road Photography and ...
If I could find a little place on earth where it was fall 365 days of the year, I'd be there in a heartbeat. Breathing in the crisp-as-can-be air as the leaves crunch beneath my feet. But since that place doesn't quite exist, I make it my life mission to savor every second of autumn before it passes by. So let's kick back and celebrate the season with 10 wedding must-haves for the fall bride. Enjoy, m'dears! One. A bouquet filled to the gills with autumn-inspired florals.
I recently found myself diving head first into the world of babies from nursery design mania to the cutest little onesies and clothes galore. I seriously didn't know they could make skinny jeans that small! I'm traversing my way as a first-time mom and the carrier of not one, but two little beans. Yep, I'm having twins - a boy and a girl. I kind of feel like I've won the baby lottery. That's not to say I'm not up at night googling voc free paints in the perfect shade of minty blue or...
You guys, these adorable favors from Alisa Lewis Event Design are so simple and so lovely. I'm all about a favor that guests can actually use after the wedding and these most definitely fit the bill. Keep reading for the recipe and head on over to the gallery for the rest of this gorgeous herb-infused shoot! [dotted] Don’t...
I consider any day spent wrapped up in some sweet DIY goodness to be a very good day, especially when that sweet DIY goodness is a rustic meets crazy cool vintage love-fest with more than its fair share of pretty. I'm talking beautiful blooms from Oscar & Evie, the fab stylings of ...
My dears, I've got something to admit. I'm in love. The head-over-heels totally smitten kind, and I can't wait to share the object of my affection with you all. Allure Bridals. Once you lay your eyes on their collections filled with stunning gowns, you'll be smitten too! Incorporating rich, luxe fabrics such as satin and lace with incredible beading and detailing, ...
There isn't a single image from Ashley Dang sitting in this gallery that I don't adore. Not a single one. It's probably because this wedding is simply perfection. From the Bride's gorgeous Saja Wedding gown to the breathtaking florals from Primal Flower to the stunning space of the ...
This Chicago wedding by Robyn Rachel Photography is the definition of drool-worthy. From start to finish, it filled with wow-worthy details that could make your jaw drop a time or two. From the stunning jewerly to the gorgeous florals from A Stem Above to the beautiful couple saying I do - it's pure prettiness in every sense of the word, and...
Weddings this perfect are the reason I l.o.v.e my job here at SMP. The reason I jump up at the first sound of my alarm, eager to dive into all of the day's pretty. It's also the reason I spend quite a bit of time lost in the gallery. Because this wedding? This charming affair mixing traditional details and a laid-back elegance that seriously can't be beat? It's amazing. And you can soak in every last minute captured beautifully by ...
If you are lucky enough to live in Las Vegas like I do, you know it's the perfect place to throw a wedding. A place where the sun is eternally shining, the landscapes are forever beautiful and the fun is being had for every last member of your friends and family. It's a destination wedding paradise, if you ask me. And when you add in one of my favorite locales (Green Valley Ranch), succulent-filled blooms by ...
People often ask me if I grow tired of weddings. I am quick to answer, never. And all I have to do to make them see why weddings will always have my heart is show them a wedding like this one. A wedding focused on family and the belief in marriage. A wedding that is gorgeous, yes, but one that is layered with love. It's enough to make anyone fall in love with weddings, and with images from ...
Southern weddings are the epitome of perfection. They're the sort of weddings that are all at once dripping with elegance and a laid-back sophistication that just can't be found elsewhere. In other words, they'll make any random work day the most awesome day you'll ever have... and this charming South Carolina affair? It's doing alllll that and then some with beautiful blooms from Cote Design, a breathtaking ...
A Newport wedding like this one captured beautifully by Erin McGinn sits happily on the tippy top of my most favorite things list. Right next to long beach days and a cold glass of bubbly, a wedding like this seaside soiree makes me happier than I probably should admit. Modern and elegant, yet wonderfully casual at the same time - the vendors at the helm of this party created a vision of a day for this gorgeous family, and...
Darlings, do I have a delicious spread of pretty for y'all today. It begins with these downright gorgeous images from Park Road Photography that tell a story of the loveliest herb-infused inspiration you ever did see, dreamt up by Alisa Lewis Event Design. Talk about al fresco perfection. Stay tuned...
I have this weird compulsion in which I don't like to spend a ton of money on my clothes. Some may consider this cheap, but I prefer to consider it wise (and I'm sticking to that!) I tend to change my mind regularly on what I like to wear, and always purge my closet on a seasonal basis which makes it difficult to justify big ticket items. I splurge on the occasional timeless piece, and tighten my purse strings on virtually anything else. And when I find a deal? I'm like a kid in a candy store:...
This is one of those weddings that really needs no introduction. Because the pictures from Liz Maryann – well, they pretty much speak for themselves. Think blush pink prettiness amongst the rolling vineyards of Virginia, with the work of Sarah Park Events, Elegance and Simplicity and...
These two are adorable. A fact I learned when we featured their uber-darling, smile-infused engagement session last year. It was a happy-fest I just couldn't get enough of, much like their sweet, sweet Brooklyn wedding captured by Melissa Kruse. And guess what? You're about to fall head over...
In a single day, I see hundreds of weddings. Hundreds of stunning days that will be happily filed as the couple's "best day ever". Yet when I come across a beauty like this one captured by Caroline Maxcy Photography it always stands out. Because not only is this gorgeous garden wedding filled with the prettiest details, but it's also filled with so much heart I can almost feel it through the screen. And that's my absolute most...
This wedding is out to prove that a beach ceremony and reception can fit hand in hand with classic detailing and a glamourous approach to the big day. Sand and twinkling chandeliers are such a good combo and when they meet the likes of a monochromatic shindig planned by Savoire Faire Weddings, floraled by Florals by the Sea and photographed...
