I hope nothing ever comes along and knocks casual elegance off it's reining throne for the best weddings ever. The weddings that fall under this category really are just the greatest, with a sense of romance taking the lead over anything else. Fawn Christiansen sent over just this sort of wedding and I've been letting my hair down with...
This, my friends, is what I call an amazing start to the weekend. A blush-hued, light-filled day of Southern California beauty styled to perfection by Chic Celebrations that literally makes you want to run outside and soak in every ounce of spring sunshine. It's a good thing we have an entire day to do just that, don't you think? See it all captured beautifully by ...
I knew I was going to love this wedding with all my being when I laid eyes on the images from Ines DiSanto, but then I read the Bride's story and I fell head over heels. That's when I realized my words could never possibly do this wedding justice. Their story will pull at your heart strings and then make you smile from ear to ear (the Groom did his Bride's wedding day hair!), so it goes without saying...
Spring is awesome, but you know what makes a sunshine filled day in April even better? A meet and greet with the amazing Julian Ribinik Photography, a husband and wife photography duo who know a thing or two about snapping a pretty picture. Think jaw-dropping images that will leave you speechless at every turn. Oh, and did I mention the giveaway? Check out their fabulous work below... From ...
Here at SMP, our love affair with the Weddington Way Collection continues to grow. Not only are the bridesmaids dresses gorgeous and amazingly versatile (hello, post-wedding wear!) but they're...
I've said it once and I'll say it again: intimate weddings are the way to go, in my book. Just you and your love, with only the nearest and dearest to bear witness. Plus a killer backdrop like Yosemite National Park? Well, that doesn't hurt one bit, either. Jenna Norman Photography captured this stunning affair among the mountains, and you can see it ALL...
We're fresh off of this year's Spring Bridal Market and are rounding up some of the fabulous trends spotted on the runways. From Monique Lhuillier to Jenny Packham and Oscar de la Renta, Spring 2015 is brimming over with lace, tulle and all out glamour. Grab a bit of bubbly, get cozy and dive in...
When it comes to love stories, I'm a sucker for them all. Serious, silly, romantic - you name it. But the ones that REALLY get me are the stories like this Melbourne couple who found each other when they very least expected it. Woodnote Photography captured their love behind the lens, and you can see the full shebang in the gallery right here....
The level of prettiness in this wedding is insane. I mean, the vibrant hues alone are enough to spend days obsessing over, but add in the talents of Cynthia Pesce Events, Juan Villanueva Designs and Brian Dorsey Studios + a whole host of heartwarming moments and, wow. I didn't know weddings could...
When you pair The Crane Estate with a celebration like this one, you get a wedding that would make Kate Middleton proud. Beautifully timeless and classic at its core, every image from Zev Fisher Photography tells the story of the most magical of days planned by Paula Marrero of Marrero Events - and...
Three things that are on my favorite list are present in this beautiful bit of wedding inspiration from Amalie Orrange Photography: stripes, that beautiful raspberry color, and a naked cake. In my humble opinion, the shoot, dreamed up by Ashley Stapleton of Table 6 Productions, featured...
We've really seen a resurgence in the wedding world of a more formal affair. It's classic turned up a notch or two and this garden wedding couldn't be a more perfect example. With imagery by Loft Photography, this gem is an elegant palette of neutrals mixed with a classic formal dinner all designed by 36th Street Events and greenery galore by ...
I think my favorite thing about Easter Brunch is that you can pretty much bank on a really good quiche. The kind that is both fluffy and creamy, with a hint of something sinful and a crust for days. And this one that Sinclair & Moore crafted is nothing if not the perfect combination of everything I love. Times 2 because it's deep dish. And if you missed the brunch that this masterpiece was crafted for - with photos by...
I think that I'm officially being swayed from my go-to roll recipe. Because the cute duo at Sinclair & Moore has left me vowing to my kids that barring my impending labor, I am 100% making these this weekend for Easter Sunday. I might even make them the night before and bake them the morning of. I know, I'm a rebel like that.
If you're planning your honeymoon to anywhere but Maui, drop everything and look at Wendy Laurel's images. As if the beach wasn't enough to convince you to change your plans, Mandy Grace Designs has pulled together a floral design that is so beautifully indicative of Hawaii I could cry.
Y'all know we're never ones to miss a good sale, so when our friends at GILT asked to team up for a wedding sale extravaganza...we basically couldn't say YES fast enough.

But it gets even better, because Abby is taking over...
This wedding right here? It's the reason I love elopements. The reason I fall head over heels for intimate soirees with only your nearest and dearest in attendance. It's a heartwarming look at true love through the lens of Brittany Lauren Photography, with enough magical moments to fill your entire weekend with happy. Just the way we like it. See so much more...
One of the showstoppers from Sinclair & Moore's Easter Brunch that we featured was the perfect macarons that helped grace the table's centerpiece. Because when placed on a pretty white cake stand, well, they sort of steal the show. Plus placing them on the table means that your guests can access them easier and are more inclined to devour every last inch. And...
This Michigan affair photographed by Kristin La Voie with design by New Fusion Events is so classic, so totally lovely, it sets the bar for Vineyard weddings. And would you believe it rained, like torrential downpour, during the ceremony? Yet not a frown in the place. It's all love and smiles and happily ever afters.
There's not a question that Hawaii is pretty fabulous all on its own. But paired with the modern beach stylings of Maui's Angels + Dellables, it takes on a whole new meaning of destination wedding. Folded into this inspiration shoot are clear ghost chairs, eclectic vintage accessories and a view for days captured by ...
