California may have the lock-down on perfect weathered outdoor affairs but New England takes the cake when it comes to all out classic, sophisticated elegance...until now. This So Cal wedding is the true embodiment of West Coast sunshine and East Coast flair. Designed by Brooke Keegan Weddings and Events along with the most romantic of blooms by Holly Flora, this is a wedding so...
As this bride admits, planning a wedding can be a bit... overwhelming. But it's weddings just like hers that we think help inspire other brides-to-be... which is why it puts a smile on our face every day to share them with you. Weddings like this are extremely pretty, with the absolute best flowers (from Roberston's Flowers) and always focus around the love between the two people at center. And of course, are captured brilliantly...
Now that Spring has officially graced us with it's presence, it's safe to start busting out those deliciously fruity, cold, crisp cocktails. And kicking off this new found sun and warmth is this Sweet as a Peach version from Amber Housley. Photographed by Leslie & Dusty, it'd make for the perfect accompaniment to any afternoon porch-swing sessions you have on the docket.
I'm fairly certain there's a bit of magic sprinkled on each and every Australia wedding we feature here at SMP, and this Xanadu Winery soiree is no exception. Choosing the venue for it's amazing location near the Boranup Forest and the open, lofted space, this sweet couple needed little in the way of decor. Thanks to Big Love Photography, there's a gallery full of...
There's just no other way to start off this feature than to tell you to read the beautiful description below. Just no other way. Because, when it comes to captivating love stories and meaningful weddings, these two gorgeous brides have it down in spades. And honestly? I can't even begin to do it all justice. From their simultaneous walk down the aisle to their beyond heartwarming ceremony to every last moment captured stunningly by ...
Oh, Salvage One. What can I say? I love every little thing about you... and the weddings you host? Some of my all-time favorites. So, when I spotted this lovely little shindig from Modern Image Studios, I knew (just knew) it was going to be fabulous. And, oh my goodness, was I right. From the awesome French Bulldog cake (!) from Amy Beck Cake Design to...
When East of Eliza, I Do! Wedding Cakes and Lg Weddings get together for a wedding at the ever-gorgeous Graydon Hall Manor, it's a serious recipe for perfection. But, when you add in a sweet-as-can-be couple, an etherial pink palette and a bride in the prettiest...
If I was allotted one wedding do-over (with the same sweet husband, of course!) I'm pretty certain I'd plan an elopement as simple yet stylish as this. Inspired by elements of the Old West, this Mr. and Mrs. worked with Three Nails Photography to handcraft as day as personal as possible. The result? A simple cermony for two with moments to cherish for a lifetime. Feel free to gush away and get inspired...
Bryce, Bryce, Bryce. I'm not certain how the magic happens when he steps behind a camera, but I couldn't be more thrilled that it does. Because each and every image he's ever snapped up, I've fallen head over heels in love with. My love fest continues after just one look at this inspiration shoot set in...
When modern meets traditional, pretty things tend to happen, pretty things like this Veranda 17 at the Sam Houston Hotel wedding. Known to friends and family as "Geoff and Jess," an ampersand became their theme, which they infused into stationery by 23and10 and throughout the event's decor! Thanks to...
Oh how I love a girl that knows what she wants. And this Bride knew since she was itty bitty, that she most definitely wanted her big day to shine. So when she fell in love and got engaged to her Boston beau, she started to make those dreams a reality. A gorgeous Watters gown? Check. Cascading florals? Check. A iconic venue (aka The State Room)? Check, check...
Looking for the world's sweetest duo? We found them. Right here in this Jekyll Island engagement session captured by Brooke Roberts Photography. An engagement session, mind you, that happens to mix gorgeous hues and beyond beautiful cultural elements with one seriously stunning setting. And the aforementioned world's sweetest duo? Well, they used their e-session as an "excuse" to vacation in one of Georgia's...
Getting pretty for a party with the girls is always an event in itself, pop the bubbly, throw on some tunes and get gorgeous! So, when a friend tells me she's tying the knot, I look forward to all of the stylish soirees leading up to the big day. Whether it's a sophisticated bridal brunch, al fresco engagement dinner, or sassy bachelorette party, there's a style for each event. We got together with one of our lovely LBB fashion gurus, Sarah Baucom of...
I loved the concept of today's feature from the moment I laid eyes on it. One gorgeous event. Four wildly different lenses. One piece of stunning dinner party inspiration from Gibson Events, 4 photographers to capture it the way that their own incredibly unique eye sees it. It's genius. Because even if a group of photographers stand in the same spot and photograph the same details, the story that they tell through their images will always be...
Wedding Wednesday is here yet again for your much needed dose of mid-week pretty. And while every SMP wedding is beautiful in its own right, I think today's slew of features are especially stunning. We're starting it all off with a blush-toned beauty set amongst a Minnesota flower farm. The whole day was documented by Jeff Loves Jessica, and there's also a...
If I wasn't craving carefree summer days before, I most certainly am now after spending some time with this Montauk beauty at Sole East. It's everything a seaside summer fête should be, complete with a color palette so happy, so vibrant you can't help but smile at all the pretty images snapped up by Cappy Hotchkiss. And when you stumble on all the shiny happy details sitting in...
One thing we know for certain here at SMP Florida? Boca Grande weddings are amazing. And Boca Grande weddings featuring beautiful florals from Botanica International Design Studio and captured in stunning images by BinaryFlips Photography? Even better. Which is why we happen to be head over heels for this little gem of a day planned to perfection by...
All the weddings we feature on SMP are special. Sometimes we aren't able to put our fingers on precisely why a party stands out at us, but with weddings like this one captured by Cliff Brunk it's the feel. When opening up a gallery of images is like opening the best of presents. A gift. Which is exactly how we felt when we first opened this whimsical woodland wedding. And when you do start to see what's inside - DIYs that couldn't be...
Matthew Robbins. He's one of those total keepers in this business. Because not only is he one of the most talented floral designers on the planet. He's also really nice. And gracious. And humble. And in the few seconds that I finally had a chance to shake his hand a few months back, I could tell that no matter how huge he becomes, he will always be that same lovely person. So today, with photography by the equally captivating ...
Loving destination weddings is an easy task. Far off locales mixed with the ultimate life celebrations = a no brainer in the adoration department. Especially when that destination is turned into all out glamour. Palm trees strung with chandeliers is a beautiful thing my friends. With photography by Lacie Hansen, blooms by Amaryllis Designs and planning by ...
