You know what I love? A great dress flipping pic. Scrumptious layers of tulle floating in the air – it gets me every time. And this Holman Ranch wedding so beautifully captured by Edyta Szyszlo Photography has not one, but three very fliptastic images tucked inside. Oh happy, happy day. Get your dress flips, your alfresco dining details and everything else wrapped up in this...
As far as I'm concerned, Jennifer Chong can do no wrong. The girl simply breathes beauty. Whether it's in the form of a recipe (like this Thai papaya salad - holy yum!) or incredible photography, everything she touches simply turns to gold. So I'm beyond excited to have her here today sharing one of her delicious treats. And I, for one, know what...
What you are about to see is a lesson on how to plan the perfect wedding weekend. Rehearsal dinner, wedding, brunch... tie it all together so the images (like these gorg ones from Melissa Hayes Photography) flow in a way that is beautiful. This is a rehearsal dinner and a wedding all in one post, and even I am learning so much about honing in on your...
We tried to get our hands on Jimgermanbar's paella recipe from this beautiful dinner party (because, um, how good does it sound?!) but apparently it's an old family recipe that they're just not ready to divulge. I know! Crushing! BUT they were sweet enough to give us one of their fabulous cocktail recipes straight...
Taking rustic farm inspiration and raising it to a level that shines through with elegance is the name of this photo shoot's game. And it's infused with a dash of French flair for good measure because, really, who doesn't love a little dose of Frenchy goodness? With Kristyn Hogan behind the camera, Cedarwood Weddings behind all the design and decor and ...
It's only recently that the idea of throwing a dinner party has become appealing to me. I suppose that means I'm growing up? But when I'm surrounded by inspiration of the prettiest variety day in and day out, can you really blame me? Designed by The Pen & Anchor and beautifully photographed by Ali Walker, this sophisticated dinner affair is...
Around these parts, nothing says "Happy Friday" like a Living spotlight. Don't get us wrong, we love, LOVE the wedding world, but the happenings over on our home-driven sister site get us all sorts of giddy. And this week hits home in more ways than one. From Abby's daughter's darling birthday to my little ol' abode, we're giving you an up close and personal look at life behind the blog. I ask you, could anything be...
Let's face it: the week after a holiday weekend is always a little crazy. The kind of crazy that comes from trying to frantically pack five days worth of work and activities into into ninety-six awesome hours, rather than one hundred and twenty. It can be madness. But when a sweet dose of inspiration like this adorable 1930's tea party shoot from Catie Coyle comes your way, you can't help but stop and soak it all in. Because with lush...
I'll tell you one thing, this lovely Bride knows how to accessorize. She is simply dripping in style, and that eye for all things pretty trickled beautifully into every aspect of her big day. But it's the smile she wears when she is with her dashing Groom that is her greatest accessory of all, and every smile-worthy moment captured by SugarLove Weddings is tucked away...
I'm one of those sappy romantics that believes in fate, true love and all things meant-to-be. One of those ladies who can't seem to ever get enough of a romantic story (here's to you, Jane Austen) or a fabulous, love-filled wedding. And when I meet two cuties as sweet as this adorable duo captured by Ashley Biess Photography, my day jumps from amazing to outrageously happy. Because these are the type of sweethearts...
When I first came across this beauty from Mat Simpson Photography Co. I was head over heels for all the pretty touches. The soft pink palette, the vintage details and the sweet romantic feel - it was love at first sight. But then I read this couple's love story, and I fell in love with this wedding all over again. It's sweetness in every sense of the word, and...
Getting lost in the loveliest of destination weddings sounds like one fabulous way to spend this Friday, don't you think? Well, I plan to do just that - and this stunning Dominican Republic wedding as seen through the lens of Caroline + Ben Photography will be the perfect way to do so. It's stunning to say the least, and it's all waiting for you right here.
This is a real wedding. I just wanted to get that out there from the get-go before you start thinking that this is, in fact, a gloriously executed photo shoot from a dream team of Texas vendors (I'm looking at you, Verbena Floral Design). Because even though this gem of a day may seem just a tad bit unreal (it is perfect, after all), it's 100%, without a doubt an authentic set of nuptials captured amazingly by...
You know what makes me happy? This sweet duo. This sweet duo with their contagious smiles, love-filled faces and downright adorability. They rock... and so does their drop-dead gorgeous wedding, a laid-back meets elegant affair literally brimming with pretty. I'm talking beautiful blooms from Bella Floral Design, a stunning ...
Oh what I would have given to be on site at this seriously gorgeous shoot. It's a flower-lovers piece of heaven thanks to all the beautiful blooms provided by the talented Colonial House, and pining over every petal in this gallery one fabulous way to spend your day. The pretty was snapped up by ...
If SMP were here for one reason and one reason only, that is to inspire. To inspire our readers, you, to build a wedding centered around your love story, and just as beautiful. PenWeddings is a favorite because of that one reason. They always have the most inspiring stories. I especially love how these two decided to exchange traditional vows... but exchange their own, personal vows at their first look. It's perfect. [iframe...
Tunisian tea is a new-to-me beverage, but it's one I think I could happily get on board with. There's something about the tradition behind a simple tea ceremony that will forever remain sacred to me. And the resulting warm cup of deliciousness is just an added bonus. Beautifully captured by Nancy Neil, I'm confident that this...
This Bryant Park wedding is the cutest thing ever. End of story. It's the kind of day us girly girls dream of with those classic New York moments that sort of make me wish I called the Big Apple home. Add in pink peonies a'pleny from Michelle Edgemont and pretty capturing by ...
There's a special place in my heart reserved for Brooklyn weddings. A special place where sweet whimsical details join forces with fabulous settings and bride and grooms who will literally take your breath away. This Prospect Park Boathouse affair is one of those weddings. A drop-dead gorgeous soiree boasting colorful blooms, mismatched maids and an entire world of lovely. See it all captured by ...
Equal parts lovely and fresh, this pretty little party at the Winterbourne beautifully captured by Julie Paisley warms my heart right up. Maybe it's the happy color palette, or perhaps it's the sweet southern style - but I'm pretty sure it's the love between the new Mr. & Mrs. that is giving me the warm and fuzzies, and...
