When two architects with an eye for design tie the knot, you know you are about to see a wedding that wows. And not only did they craft a lovely fête, they also learned how to jam for their adorable favors and even brewed their own beer for their guests. Talk about impressive. It's personal, heartfelt and all them - and thanks to Olivia Gird Photography, every moment is waiting for you...
Having met my fiancé at college, I have such a soft spot for college sweethearts. And these two? They're completely adorable. Add in pretty details galore (hello gorg bouquet from Fragrant Design!) and we've got ourselves one lovely as ever gallery from Husar Photography and film from ...
I love great details and decor as much as the next girl, but it's the people, the stories, the love that speak straight to my heart. It's stories like this bride whose 9-year-old son escorted her down the aisle or the fact that they traded formalities for a family-style Southern comfort food affair that make a wedding come to life. Jodi Miller captured every bit and you can...
Though it's tempting to deck a babies nursery out in colorful doodads and tchotchkes alike, I tend to be partial to a more modern sentiment. One in which mom and dad can happily reside, and will easily transition with that new baby as he grows. And this nurser? Well it's nursery perfection. Captured by Hogger & Co., there's...

There's nothing that says 'cozy' more than a rustic, DIY farm wedding. Homemade jam favors and s'mores, handwritten wooden signs, the sweetest pup ever and hayrides followed by a bonfire… feeling warm and fuzzy yet? There's a whole lot more from Julia Newman in the gallery!...
When you're hosting your wedding in a locale like the Sacramento Grand Ballroom, it's sort of a given that your day will be amazing. But throw in a gorgeous bundle of Gatsby-inspired details and an adorable bride and groom with a love of orchids and it's the kind of amazing that leaves you swooning all weekend. Soak in every last...
I 100% believe that the majority of weddings are fueled by love and flowers. Lots and lots of flowers. At least this Glynwood Farm affair is. With blooms as bountiful as they come and a sweet barn reception that put's the R in rustic elegance, you can see the full day photographed by Lauren Gabrielle in the gallery...
Mother's Day is on Sunday, and here at SMP, there is nothing we value more than a bit of mom advice. From life to love and everything in between, she's usually right (ok, always right!). One of mom's most highlighted lessons? Always send a thank you note, and send it promptly. Well, we couldn't agree more, so SMP teamed up with Vera Wang Papers to dish the skinny on...
To me, there is nothing more magical than an engagement session in Central Park. And a session that features some gorgeous foliage, a ridiculously good looking couple and is all captured by Vanessa Joy Photography? That's when we know we've hit the engagement session jackpot.
This wedding basically rocks my world for a million different reasons, but let me start out with these four words: root beer float station. Umm... awesome. Add in a bride and groom who know a thing or two about throwing a casually elegant party and a crazy cool outdoor setting like Biola University and this, my friends, is the perfect end to the work week. See it all captured by ...
It's no secret we're total suckers for a good bridal bouquet. Big, small, we love 'em all and Marti's Floral Designs is here to break down the pretty. She's sharing her recipe for the ultimate bundle of blooms and thanks to Lexi Vornberg Photography you can see the snaps...
I'm a go go go kind of a girl, but when I took a look at this gorgeous wedding film from Purple Ribbon Weddings I couldn't help but to stop for a moment and take it all in. Because this wedding? It's stunning, and the cinematography is worth some serious time this today. So do yourself a favor and hit play, it's time well spent, trust me.

In terms of wedding style, I'm pretty sure rustic romance beats all others for Most Popular. With a nod to vintage, and a simple elegance all mixed into one beyond gorgeous yet totally unfussy day, what's not to love? This wedding at Ojai Valley Inn & Spa designed by A Touch of Bliss with pastel flowers galore by ...
Here's what happens when preppy meets traditional with just a dash of vintage glamour: it's fabulous. Think stunning navy and pink hues, gorgeous baby's breath-filled centerpieces from Colony Florist and awesome Victorian candlesticks. Throw in a breathtaking setting like Shelter Island and it's more lovely than you can handle from ...
If you ask me, gorgeous lighting can change the entire look of a wedding. There's nothing more romantic than a soft, glowing chandelier floating above the dinner table, a perfectly lit first dance or a room sprinkled with flickering candles. So when I laid eyes on this al fresco affair in Umbria, I couldn't help but fall in love. With Italia Celebrations behind the planning (and those gorgeous chandeliers!) and...
I thought a New England Spring was pretty darn fabulous but a Floridian Spring? It might just take the cake. This inspiration crafted by Anthology Co. and Gianny Campos Photography is a colorful spread peppered with sparkle and the outdoor beauty of the South East. And whenever a naked cake is involved, like this beaut by ...
Though there's no shortage of lovely here at SMP headquarters, every so often an event sneaks into my life and throws me for a loop. As it turns out, when you pair RomaBea Images with Jill Fawcett, magical things ensue. Things like Mother's Day brunches that are so lovely it's almost painful. Ones that are dripping in delicious details every which way you turn. And if you like...
At the heart of every DIY wedding is a bride who's not afraid to get her hands a little dirty. The type who can craft like nobody's business and involves her family every step of the way. It's exactly what you'll find in this farm affair from Fabrice Tranzer, and the full gallery is something truly special. From...
I knew I loved this couple the moment I read their description of their romance: "straight from the rom-com genre." (They are awesome.) And then I laid my eyes on the gorgeous images captured by Sara Wight Photography and it was hook, line, sinker, obsessed. Because any time a stylish couple like this frolics around the city streets of NYC, it's pure, unadulterated magic. See so much more...
