It may be chilly outside but this weekend is all about warmth and goodness as one of our favorite people, Maggie Batista over at EAT Boutique, is hosting her annual Holiday Market highlighting over 60 artisan food and drink makers, authors, culinary experts and food trucks THIS WEEKEND. Held at the Cruiseport Boston, the event will take place...
No doubt about it, this wedding rocks. And not just because it was held in the awesome little locale known as Sedona. No, it also happens to feature one seriously adorable duo (high school sweethearts, no less), lush, colorful blooms from Jazz Bouquet and a stunning setting (Creekside Inn) that will sort of take your breath away. See it all captured beautifully by...
Charleston is the sort of city just made for marrying. The kind of place where romance, tradition and whimsical details join forces with some of the cutest duos you will ever meet. Together, it's a combination that makes for one crazy gorgeous party... and when it's a breathtaking day like this one captured by Sean Money + Elizabeth Fay, it's all kinds of amazing. See so much more right here in the...
I've been a bit weepy all morning, and this stunning North Carolina wedding from Eric Boneske is to blame. The couple is so gorgeous and their wedding so beautiful, my eyes have been leaking since the moment I laid eyes on that beautiful bouquet from Fiore Fine Flowers. I'm going to insist that you head into...
Deciding what to give the hostess on your list? Here are a few ideas that might just make the perfect gift! From cocktail mixing to appetizer serving, you can’t go wrong with any of these domesticated goodies. Shopping for a hostess can be as simple as wrapping up a nice bottle of wine or as elaborate as splurging on a gorgeous rose quarts serving tray. Either way she will thank you whole-heartedly for your...
My favorite kind of weddings are the ones that break the "rules." The weddings that buck tradition in favor of bespoke. So when this edgy-meets-modern-meets-classic Jersey affair plopped in our wedding loving laps, we knew it had SMP written all over it. But of course, the photos from Trent Bailey Photography and film by Red Shoe Bride didn't hurt one bit either. So what are...
SMPers, meet Nick and Jess. Two seriously sweet cuties that know a thing or two about being adorable... and planning an adorable engagement session to match. I'm talking a lemon-filled, yellow-hued beauty with one beautiful moment after another captured magically by Cassi Kennedy Photography. Get your pretty on right here in the full gallery.
We are big fans of Ryan Ray at SMP, BIG fans. He has a way with the camera that makes our hearts flutter and our eyes smile, so when he sent over this beauty for our latest SMP Fashion & Beauty Magazine, we should have known we would be head over heels for every perfect moment sitting in this...
Registering for your big day is like creating the most fabulous, all-encompasing Holiday list you + your honey could ever imagine. Sometimes the task of picking out all the goodies that will fill up your new home can be daunting; that is, until you head over to Target. With everything you could possibly want (or need) all in one place (we're talking sheets to sleeping bags to mixers), you honestly cannot go...
Let's face it, the holidays can be downright EXPENSIVE! With presents to buy, a home to fill with holiday cheer, food to stock up on, hostess gifts to purchase and parties to dress for, one can easily find herself with a smoking credit card and an empty bank account come New Year. So today I thought I'd do some bargain hunting just for the season and I've put together a holiday party outfit that hits the...
When it comes to a SMP-worthy wedding, pretty pictures are a must. Steal-worthy details are at the top of the list as well. A beautiful gown never hurts. But the thing that makes it a YES every time is the palpable love, like that in this wedding from Rouxby. Adrianne Elizabeth Events was inspired by that special bond and planned...
Florals are my weakness. There's just no getting around it. Beautiful bloomage can take any wedding to the next level, so when Flowerwild shared the snaps from their latest floral design workshop, we jumped at the chance to share. Along with a few of our industry faves - Jose Villa, TEAM Hair & Makeup, ...
This, my friends, is what perfection looks like. A sweet combination of stunning French-inspired details from Folklore Vintage Rentals + Carly Rae Weddings, beautiful blooms from Pamela Lowe Floral Design and a whole host of drop-dead gorgeous details, all captured by ...
It seems as if we're just filled with exciting news these days. First, our mini collab with West Elm (still sitting on pins & needles to unveil those bad boys!) and now our dear Abby Larson has signed on to be the December Guest Curator over at...
The pretty little state also known as Oregon happens to be one of my all-time favorite places in the world to visit, and I've often caught myself daydreaming about a lovely destination wedding of my very own in the land of fabulous wineries and amazing scenery. So this beautiful affair captured by Colleen Kerns is awesome...and filled to the brim with vibrant colors, fab DIY details (hello crafty bride) and enough love to...
It goes without saying that my job at SMP is pretty darn special, but sometimes it's practically impossible to put together a little paragraph worthy of doing a wedding justice. Because when you run into a wedding like this Colorado beauty from Laura Murray Photography, there simply aren't words pretty enough. Coordinated by La Boheme Events and designed by ...

My love for this engagement shoot from Marissa Lambert is off the charts. It's stylish in every sense of the word, and filled with special moments these lovebirds will cherish forever. It's image after image of some of the prettiest engagement pictures you'll ever see, and they are all sitting pretty right here. From...
When it comes to jewelry, I'm a statement necklace kind of girl. A pop of color, a splash of bling, you name it, I love it. So when I saw this Cape Cod bride rocking a major J. Crew sparkler on the Big Day? Well, I was instantly obsessed. It's a wedding full of unexpected pretty tucked around every nook and cranny, all captured by Julia Cumes and ...
A few weeks ago, I got the sweetest email from a groom turned fantastic husband requesting that I take a look at his wedding pictures. And if I liked them, could they pretty please go up on the blog December 5th for his beautiful wife's birthday? Well, that just about won my heart, but then I laid eyes on the stunning day, planned by the bride +...
