In this wedding blogger's opinion, everything is better with a bow on it — from white dresses to invitations, it's all about that extra-special touch. And when it comes finding the perfect ribbons and embellishments, look no further than Midori. With a million and one options for colors, shapes + sizes, and the addition of their brand-new custom printing feature (which I'm seriously swooning over!), it'll be easy as pie...
Working at SMP, you see your fair share of gorgeous weddings. I mean, that's sort of how we roll here in the land of pretty. And even though I have drooled over literally hundreds of big days, there's always a little something special that makes each one completely unique. A little something special that makes my jaw hit the floor in ways it never has before. And today's beautiful Victoria wedding? It's chock-full of love-filled moments, all designed by a bride and groom who couldn't...
It's a well known fact that here at SMP, we love Macy's Wedding Registry. It's our go-to for all things house + home, and it's the perfect spot to find everything you'll need to start your new life together! Outfitting your home...
Love stories are the best. That first meeting, that first date, that first look across across the table when you just know something special is taking place... I could seriously listen to tales of "how we met" all the livelong day. And this dapper duo? Well, their first date story is awesome. An hour turned into ten kind of awesome that most of us only dream about. (Seriously.) And their e-session captured by Studio Finch? Well...
You know how you can tell if your wedding was an absolute success? When you can't name a favorite moment, because every last second was amazing. And this darling bride and groom? Well, they fall right into that category. Two happy-to-be-wed people who loved every gorgeous detail and every beautiful moment of their Auberge Val Carroll wedding. A wedding, I might add, that will blow your mind with all of the pretty. See so...
There is so much I want to say about our beloved city right now. I could go on and on about how its cobblestone streets are the most charming, or how its historic sights can't be matched, or how it's quirky design can't be compared (have you ever tried to navigate this pretty city?) - but the thing I absolutely love most are the people that fill it's gas-lamp lit streets. People like these two cuties captured by ...
When a wedding is this beautifully executed, it's hard not to get lost in all of the pretty. The gorgeous blooms from Cedarwood Weddings, the breathtaking Nashville setting, the amazing details sprinkled throughout... it's mind-blowing. But one read of this lovely bride's heartwarming description and you'll be thinking of one thing and one thing only. Love. The true love between two perfect-for-each-other people and the love a...
Ok, these two? They are adorable. Downright, all-out cute as they come. So it should be no surprise that their detail-filled love fest at Star Hill Ranch was equally fabulous. Because, oh, it was. It's baby's breath and cardigan-wearing maids, it's burlap and flower girls in tutus. It's a Texas beauty through and through captured beautifully by The Bird & The Bear, and...
I feel as though this wedding has danced in the dreams of girls all around the world. It's perfectly fairy-tale like. With the perfect dose of romance and the loveliest splash of pink, all in hosted in a venue, the Cloister, that just oozes fancy - it's a dream, really. But for this Bride and her handsome Groom, that dream was their reality. And thanks to the beautiful images from ...
This wedding gives me a serious case of the warm fuzzies. I can't pinpoint exactly what about it is so special, but in my vast experience as a wedding blogger, I've come to learn that usually means the whole affair is the special part. Everything from the flowers to the setting to the laughter and love is extra heartwarming, especially when captured by m three studio. Molly always knows how to capture the essence of the warm and fuzzies...
The Ace Hotel in Palm Springs is kind of like a blogger haven. It simply oozes that easy breezy, not-trying-too-hard cool factor that you just can't fake. Not having had the opportunity thus far to see it for myself, I'm glad we have talented folks like Anais + Dax who can bring us along virtually.
If there's one thing we can learn from this outdoor affair, it's a lesson in the beauty of natural light. And with every sun-soaked image from Leo Patrone more beautiful than the last, it's pretty much a wedding lover's dream-come-true. But what takes this kind of oh-my-goodness gorgeous to the next level? Honey of a Thousand Flowers' impeccable floral design that's total...
Intimate weddings have a tendency to make me weak in the knees. And when they are held at the uber-gorgeous Soho Beach House and feature strings of cafe lights and a reception that is like the greatest dinner party you've ever seen, that's a weakness that can't even be described in words. Case in point? This beautiful affair captured by ...
When this couple couldn't quite decide where they should celebrate their I dos - the country or the city - they ultimately decided, why not both? So that is just what they did. And when most couples struggle to plan one fête, this duo doubled up their planning and arranged for the most gorgeous of affairs in both the countryside of Millbrook and the stylish streets of Brooklyn. The result is a gallery of images captured by...
Not once have I met a Vibiana wedding that I didn't want to devour image by image. It's unparalleled in its breathtaking architecture and provides the perfect backdrop for a modern affair like this day so beautifully captured by Christine Farah Photography. Think elegant details crafted by Sugar and Fluff and wedding...
Texas and rustic go together like peanut-butter and jelly. Honestly, the two were destined to be the bestest of buds and that declaration holds true for this ranch shindig in Waco. With a romantic color palette, and horse guests a plenty, this affair planned by Keely Thorne Events and photographed by Nancy Aidee Photography is one not to be missed. Luckily, we have even more...
In the SMP land of all things lovely, this wedding ranks among the very best. It's a celebration set in the most stunning Mexico locale with pretty pops of pink sprinkled all along the way. Jillian Mitchell perfectly captured this all-out party and Karen Ruezga made certain it went off without a hitch. Enjoy a swoon...
California is chock full of gorgeous venues, but after seeing this gorgeous wedding captured by Jessica Burke, the Ramekins Culinary School is moving its way to the top spot on my favorites list. The entire wedding is, actually. With its sweeping vistas, perfectly planned details from A Savvy Event and a gorgeous couple in the...
At the end of the day, throwing a great wedding isn't much different than planning the ultimate party. Take this whimsical Atlanta affair, for example that breaks all the wedding rules in the best way possible. It's a celebration in the city where this love story first started, featuring the most fabulous decor and design by Amy Osaba. We're tickled pink to have all the pretty photos from ...
Leave it to Heidi to take a simple idea and infuse it with something so fantastic that it's instantly elevated to the next level. This honey lavender syrup is not only beautiful (hello, hostess gift!? party favour?!) it's also insanely easy to make yourself. And? It could be used for a multitude of different applications. Today, the honey lavender simple syrup world is your oyster! From...
