Our sprinkles themed party is still one of my favourites to date (in fact, I loved it so much I even re-posted it on my personal blog way back when). So you can imagine my excitement when Indi's colourful birthday party fell into my lap. I mean, it's adorable overload. Is it not? Designed and...
The weddings that often top my favorites list are the ones that center around a love that you can feel... even if you weren't present. Part of that is a good photographer, and Photography by Jay C Winter is one of the best, and part of that is a profound kind of deep love. The kind of love that inspires. From the beaitiful bride... Edan and I...
The way these two look at each other? Man. I get that heart-melty, dumb-smile, *sigh* feeling big time. With the only guests being the maid of honor and best man, this sweet, intimate love story told by Ballyhoo Photography makes me think twice about having a large guest list when I get married. I'll be mulling it over in the gallery with...
I'm guilty of spending more time than I care to admit poring through the features on SMP Living. But can you blame me? It's basically a one stop shop for everything lifestyle. Fashion? Yep. Home? You betcha. Food? Duh! But it doesn't stop there. This week Living went above and beyond with some extra amazing posts -- like...
When a garden affair is on the agenda, my day is made. And today's soiree just so happens to be a garden affair complete with barn, ring bearer in seersucker, and pretty amazing light, captured so brilliantly by Kristin La Voie Photography. And the love at the center? Blog worthy, to say the least. From the photographer... This is...
I want this wedding. I want this wedding in the worst way. Because when it comes down to magical ways to say "I do," this pretty little affair really knows how it's done. I'm talking an intimate love-fest with a small group of friends and family, a weekend getaway in paradise and a whole host of lovely captured by Jonathan Canlas that will literally rock your world... and fill your entire day with pretty.
When I was planning my wedding, there was a big part of me that wanted a wedding just like this one captured by The Studio B Photography. A beautifully intimate affair followed by a delicious meal where conversation (and champagne) flowed. Which is precisely how this lovely day unfolded, and you can see every moment right here in the...
This is the kind of rehearsal dinner that you just can't wait to attend. A rehearsal dinner that is all at once drop-dead gorgeous and a full-fledged celebration. It's stunning paper goods meets lush, flowing florals meets a downright southern style that just can't be replicated elsewhere. Styled to perfection by Maggie Griffin and captured in mesmerizing images by...
Lisa Frechette is filling our screens with serious pretty this morning by way of this adorable Rhode Island fête, and I just can't thank her enough for it. It's overflowing with all of my favorite things (bowties, coastal towns, pretty blooms) - it's almost as though this Bride crafted this wedding just to make me smile. And although I know that is not the case, you can bet your bottom dollar that I'm smiling from ear...
What you are about to see is the world's absolute best confetti first dance. It's made my day and then some. And served on the side of that cheery confetti is a wedding so perfectly relaxed and beautiful, you're going to die. Marianne Taylor Photography sent in this one, complete with vintage ice cream truck, cute as can be flower girls and...
In my next life, I want to be a kid's party planner. Seriously! They're always fun, whimsical and there's truly no end to the ideas you could churn out. Plus, so long as there's some form of cake in attendance, I guarantee your mini client will be more than satisfied. Inspired by Fleur de Lis Events' sweet nautical 2nd birthday (hello whale cupcake toppers!), we thought it'd be fun to pull together a miniature version...
I love Aneta MAK -- plain and simple. She's a master of fine art film, and manages to send us weddings that redefine our notion of "perfection" time and time again. *Cue* this elegant winter soiree nestled in the snowy little village of Megève. Every last detail, down to the stationery by Paper + Cup Design is something straight from wedding blogger...
You know what makes for a pretty amazing e-session backdrop? The West Village. It's filled with gorgeous + fun locales (Carrie Bradshaw's stoop, anyone?) and some of the most picturesque settings you will ever lay your eyes upon. Case in point? This beautiful gem from the ever-lovely Brklyn View Photography, an engagement sesh that seriously screams "chic" with a beyond stylish duo and moment after moment of pure...
To say I love Kate Spade would be the understatement of the year. There isn't a brand that makes me happier, so coming across this Kate Spade inspired shoot from Chelsey Boatwright Photography is like striking gold in my book. It's filled to the brim with perfectly preppy details to brighten your day, complete with a cake from Sugar Fancies that...
When you work at SMP, there's never a dull moment. Exhibit A: this crazy gorgeous Mexico wedding that's layers upon layers of wedding fantasy brought to life. With two stunning gowns that'll Rock. Your. World. plus all the pretty snapped up by Orange Turtle Photography, this day is officially one to love. Ready, set...swoon! From...
Champagne, sparkles and weddings are some of our favorite things. I think that might be the case for LS Designs and Oak & Owl Florist as well, who crafted this villa affair incorporating all of our favorites – bridesmaids in sparkling gowns, loads of champagne and an alfresco wedding as pretty as they come. And between the images...
I have a bit of a love hate relationship with Ibiza. One summer, back in high school, two of my best friends took off on a whirlwind month long European vacation. For a multitude of different reasons I was, unfortunately, unable to join them. Though they visited a number of different cities, Ibiza is one that specifically sticks out in my mind. Yes, it's absolutely stunning. Yes, it's overflowing with culture and history and all things great. But it took my friends away from me when I was 17 and...
Y'all know we're NEVER ones to keep secrets, which is why we've been waiting on pins and needles to let you in on our sparkly new collaboration with (drumroll please)...BaubleBar! They've always been our go-to for accessories big and small, but today we're launching a limited edition collection curated specifically with you and your 'maids...
I'm not sure how to say this without sounding like a total creep, so I'm just going to go ahead and creep away. Julia of Gal Meets Glam has the softest looking skin I ever did see. Not only that, but she's also a mastermind with that makeup brush of hers, doning a flawless complexion regularly. Truly. Go peek, I can wait! I've always longed to inquire about her daily routine, and have thus made it my mission to unleash her...
This is the kind of engagement session that makes me want to pack up my leggings, say goodbye to my winter boots and hold off on those comfy sweaters just a little while longer. Because even though I happen to adore fall and all of its coziness, this little gem of a shoot (and the adorable duo starring in every last moment) are making me crave summer in the biggest of ways. Which is to be expected, really, since it's a literal warm weather fairytale, complete with beautiful sunsets and crazy...
