I seriously want to crawl inside this shoot and live forever. Or maybe just set up a shop at the stunning Sanchez House in St. Augustine and have the talented vendors behind every last ounce of inspiration on hand to surround me with pretty. Because beauty like this? It's breathtaking. From the devastatingly gorgeous blooms from Shea Hopely Flowers to the...
City Hall weddings hold a special place in my wedding-loving heart. Not because I personally tied the knot on city steps, but because a part of me always dreamed of doing so. And my dream looked just like this couple's gorgeous day captured by Melissa Kruse Photography. To me, their day and their story is romance defined, and you can see every last moment...
Nothing makes me happier than sweet, romantic details mix and mingling with a fab industrial space. Well, maybe a fab industrial space with vintage stylings woven throughout, like the gorgeous gem that is the Marin Headlands Center for the Arts. When that happens, I am a little bit more than happy... I'm ecstatic. Especially when the adorable duo behind the day throws one of the coolest weddings I've ever seen with a yummy sundae bar...

If I've said it once, I've said it 1000 times, I'm a total, complete sucker for accessories. Jewelry, shoes, handbags and my one true love? Sunglasses. So when I was virtually introduced to DITTO, the new ecommerce site for designer eyewear, let's just say it was affinity at first click. Carrying 35 top designers including Ray-Ban...
In my humble opinion, we saved the best room for last. Living rooms have always been my very favourite spaces to design. They say the kitchen is the heart of the home, but I tend to believe the living room is where all the action happens. Family's gather, Christmas gifts are opened, movie nights are had. What's not to love?! Plus? We have the brilliant purveryor of all things beautiful...
The name of the game at SMP is weddings, but every so often we get a peek at the couple before the big day, and it's always a joy later to find the photos from their wedding in our inbox. These two first graced our pages with their Scrabble inspired engagement shoot, and today Craig Photography is back...
In my mind, the saying "you eat with your eyes" couldn't be more true. Though there's no real logic behind this thought, I fully believe that a meal tastes infinitely better when prepared within a well designed space. Perhaps it's just my inner design nerd emerging, but I'll stand by that fact until the end! With this in mind, we recently turned to interior designer extraordinaire, Kishani Perera, to learn all about how she tackles ...
You know that moment when you lock eyes with a wedding and are beyond convinced it's a professionally staged styled shoot? Thinking there's just NO way a day this gorgeous could be pulled off in real life. Well this Russian affair, m'dears, is one such wedding. With drop-your-jaw details, a modelesque bride and groom, and captures I swear look straight out of a glossy from Max Koliberdin, this...
Though the dining room seems like a simple space to decorate (hello chairs + a table) I can attest that there's much more that occurs than what meets the eye. Everything from lighting to art selection must be carefully curated in order to ensure a well-designed space (there isn't much worse than terrible lighting when you're trying to have a romantic meal). Thankfully, Kishani Perera has agreed to divulge some of her...

It's a backyard beauty with the perfect amount of elegance, and you'll want to join me in soaking up every last detail right here in the...
Now that we've got our bathroom designs underway, we thought we'd turn our attention to the bedroom. All too often this room becomes the most neglected space in the house. But with Kishani's tips and tricks, there's no reason not to...
Searching for the right words to describe this breathtaking engagement shoot from Evan Hunt Photo is kind of like trying to find a needle in a haystack; I know they are there, but I'd dig for hours before I could really do these amazing images justice. I guess that's what happens when you combine Evan's enormous talent with a duo as breathtaking as these two... pure, unadulterated perfection set against a stunning...
There are DIY duos and then there are, you know, duos who travel the world together on The Amazing Race and then return home to craft every last detail of their wedding. Those are the kind of duos that take DIYing to an entirely new level... and those aforementioned details? Amazing (but of course). I'm talking everything from the fab signage to the beautiful blooms, all crafted by two of your favorite sweeties (Trey and Lexi) and their devoted friends and family. It's a day that...
You might want to take a deep breath and sit down before soaking in this wedding - because to say it's breathtaking would be the understatement of the year. And really, I am struggling to find words to do it justice. So instead I'll let the images from Alpine Image Company and the film from Sunshine Wedding Films speak for themselves. And boy to they have something...
You know what makes a pretty amazing color combo? Apple green and vibrant hot pink.

Add in a bride who seriously glows in her lace ...
