We spend day after day on SMP Illinois swooning over moments. Moments that pull at our heartstrings and make us love our job more than you could ever imagine. As past brides ourselves, we all know the important decisions it takes to make your day your own, and one of the most important choices you'll make is choosing the wedding gown of your dreams.

Today is a very good day here at SMP Georgia; a very good day. One in which we get to spend every second of our morning, noon and night swooning over the top-notch wedding locale known as The Georgia Club, a beautiful venue just perfect for saying "I do." I'm talking award-winning service meets breathtaking settings meets crazy yummy food. And when I tell you that they are holding an ...
Wrapping up a week's worth of pretty is no easy feat. But this time around, we found a little something that more than fits the bill. You see, this stunning bride is also a breast cancer survivor -- talk about amazing! But she also happens to be a fashionista through and through. She slipped on her vintage James Galanos gown for a...
Jetting off with the one you love for "I dos" in the Italian Riviera sounds like a dream. But what makes this story even cuter (if you can handle) is that these sweeties met at the tender age of 15. Fast forward 11 years and you get what has to be one of the most romantic weddings EVER. Ocean views, Italian charm and all. Exclusive Italy Weddings made sure it went off without a hitch and ...
I have a soft spot for color. Also on that soft spot list? Anything and everything captured by Troy Grover Photographers. They've not only snapped the beautiful moments behind this Pasadena affair but the vibrant details too. Take those yummy florals by The Little Branch or the laid back yet totally beautiful open air reception from ...
I'm one of those people that sort of tries to pretend like my birthday doesn't exist. The only surprise party I've ever had was when I turned 16 years old and my friends decorated my new car in maxi pads. I know! Anyway, I think that my tunes are a-changing after devouring this absolutely beautiful, girly goodness of a party that was hosted by some of the most talented wedding ladies around at White Peacock Styled Events!
Any self-proclaimed SMP bride holds a special spot in our hearts. The reason we do what we do (aside from our extreme obsession with everything pretty, chic, and matrimonial) is for you. For the bride who spends her lunch hour scouring our galleries, reading our archives, and perusing our Pinterest. We're happy to do it, and all we ask in return are a few pictures of your big day. Especially if it's planned by one of our fab LBBers like...
O'Malley Photographers has the right idea with this photo shoot. Winter Weddings are some of the most romantic affairs ever.

The sweet girls who shared this adorable Apple Porch Party -- DomestiKated Life, Little Flower Cottage, Bring to Light Photography -- were gracious enough to send a few recipes our way, the first of which is a cocktail that I am...

Weddings like this one are meant for Fridays. They are sleek, sophisticated and chock-full of beauty. In other words, if you are looking to kick off your weekend in grand style, this, my lovelies, is it.

I couldn't be more in love with this engagement session if I tried. It's perfectly seasonal and perfectly adorable. Complete with pumpkins and a couple so cute I would squeeze if it wasn't a weird thing to do.

This wedding at the The Goat Farm Arts Center surprised me in the best possible way. Just when I thought I found the prettiest possible moment of this couples' big day, I would discover an even more gorgeous layer planned by Jade Lee Events, I couldn't help but drool over. With each image snapped up by ...
I kid you not. The moment I laid my eyes on this darling day captured by Emily Delamater, I was speechless. As in, my mouth was unable to form words and my brain was unable to make sentences. And as a professional wedding blogger, that can be kind of a problem. But stare for even one minute at the gorgeousness that is the full gallery and you'll be doing the exact same thing. ...
We love a bride who rocks her mother's dress. But a bride who carries a bouquet inspired by her grandmothers is something I've never seen before, and I'm officially naming it the chic thing to do. This trendsetting bride carried a bouquet from Parties & Petals that stunned and though the rest of the wedding had a lot to live up to, somehow it did it effortlessly. It's gorgeous, and thanks to...
