The first thing on the agenda today is to wish you all, especially you military loves, a happy Veteran's Day. We want to thank each and every one of our military members, past and present, and their families for their service, and we're starting to spread the love thick with these two. Sarah and Walter met while he was at the Naval Academy and got through his second deployment the best way I could imagine... by planning this beautiful wedding! Captured by...
I have my own special Veteran at home; my dear, sweet husband. So I know all too well how important and special this day is and in honor of all the service men and women who have so bravely served for our country we wanted to celebrate you in true SMP style; with a wedding that embodies all things Americana. It's a red, white and blue extravaganza captured by Brooke Courtney Photography and you can see even more...
True story: I discovered Erika and her blog Urban Grace, chronicling her life and interior design projects, over 4 years ago and immediately pored through the ENTIRE thing in one sitting. My eyes were burning by the end, but the inspiration I felt while reading like a mad woman was unlike anything I had come across at the time. I've since held Erika in high esteem, and it's a bit of a...
An all white palette never fails to stop me in my tracks. Give me a crisp, clean all-white wedding, and I'll give you one happy little wedding blogger. This beauty from Vitalic Photo is the perfect example of why I'll never tire of such a fête. It's refreshing and lovely from the first image to the last, and you can get your fill of all the gorgeousness...
From this point on, when I think of drop-dead gorgeous garden affairs, I will think of this stunning (and I mean stunning) Lasdon Park and Arboretum wedding. A wedding sooo full of pretty and outdoor-infused loveliness, it's almost impossible to NOT love every second captured beautifully by Caroline Frost Photography. I'm talking one moment...

So today, we're keeping the party going as we introduce you all to three fabulous new members of the SMP family: RH Signature Co., Bubal'e and The Wedding Chicks Shop!

We love Monday through Friday on SMP Florida, but Saturdays are equally special. Because that's when we get to cozy up with some of the nearest and dearest members of our SMP family who just happen to be right in your backyard. And today, we get the pleasure of spending some serious quality time with Isabel O'Neil Bridal Collection. A bridal boutique that we couldn't possibly adore more, and might be a tad bit jealous of all the...
Here at SMP, end of the week wrap ups are sort of like icing on the cake. We try to end the week with a big ol' bang, so when Design*Sponge shared their fall wedding inspiration shoot, we knew we'd found "the one." But it gets even better, because on top of all this major wedding swoon, they're giving away a styled engagement sesh with e la Barra Photography! Head...
Marrying amongst the Florentine hills has to be about the most romantic way to go. Because if you ask me, being surrounded by the olive groves and Tuscan scenery easily makes for a mighty fine day. So who better to bring it all to life than Laura of Varese Wedding? She wove in sense of rustic chic style, with our favorite Lisa Poggi capturing behind the camera. Ready for even...
The folks at Design*Sponge are one talented team. We've oogled over their site for years (and that's a long time in blog land), and it's always one of the first we check when we open the computer in the morning. So when we heard they were sending over some wedding inspiration, we literally dropped everything to sit by our computers until it hit our inbox. And boy did they crank out some pretty. It all took place at the fabulous...
Classic tented receptions are a definite favorite around these parts. The all white draping sets off everything from a romantic, traditional affair to one with a little rustic flair. This Cayucos wedding with it's farm-style tables and boxed centerpieces by Flowers by Denise lands somewhere in-between traditional and rustic and with tons of beautiful imagery by ...
And just when I didn't think I could love Waiting on Martha more, she goes and wrangles the most amazing giveaway EVER with Pomegranate (my new favourite home goods store, by the way). Inspired by her Thanksgiving spread? Yep, the entire look can be yours by entering below.
To understand my obsession with this wedding, you first have to understand my obsession with Lauren Kinsey Fine Art Weddings. Fine Art says it all, because Lauren's work is enough to give me goosebumps every single time. So when Lauren announced that this bride (coincidentally, also named Lauren) would be her sister if she had one I knew the goose bumps were going to carry over a hundred fold. But I didn't take into account that...
In the South few things are held as high as tradition and family. And what's more traditional than gathering around a Thanksgiving table with family and friends to feast on the season's bounty? Inspired by my love for a classic Thanksgiving, I combined rich browns and oranges with an unexpected twist of coral and sage greens to create a picturesque Southern table. Captured by Rustic White Photography, there's a ...
Confession: This adorable couple I hold very close to my heart for numerous reasons, but a major one being this duo is made up of my sister and soon to be brother-in-law. And I happen to think their engagement photographed by Ruth Eileen is about as perfect as they come. The images capture their laughter-filled spirit and their undeniable love. But the story behind those cute faces makes them all the more endearing. This is a love...
A tried and true ingredient for any fabulous affair? Romance. Yep, add a dash of the big R to any wedding and you can guarantee a day that is not only drop-dead gorgeous, but chock-full of meaning. And this pretty little day captured by Dapper Images? Overflowing with romance, from the pretty pink hues to the lush blooms from A Good Affair Wedding & Event Production to the...
