If you were to ask me to pin down my favorite type of fête, I would first become a flustered mess because picking a favorite is nearly impossible, and then, when I gained my composure, I would say that I adore a wedding that is simple, yet elegant. Timeless and classic. A wedding that looks just like this one from Matt Edge Wedding Photography. Because this is a soiree that will never go out of style, and...
Helloooooo Friday! It's been a busy week here at the SMP offices and I think we could allll use a bevvy or two to celebrate.

Is everyone else as sick of winter as I am? I don't think I'll be the first to say that this year has been bad. Brutal, even!

And what better way to do so than with a super simple, super adorable hot chocolate party a la Christina Vo. Captured by Sonya Yruel, it's...
