I don't think I've ever met a proposal quite as cute as this one. With Cheers Darling Events at his side to plan every lovely detail, this Groom-to-be was determined to surprise his sweet, beautiful Bride and that he did—picnic style, complete with a couple of calligraphy-adorned bottles of bubbly by Laura Hooper, a cake from...
These beautiful images from the equally beautiful Allison Kuhn are special in so many ways. Yes, former bachelorette, Emily Maynard, is maternity perfection. And yes, the floral crowns from Springvine Design and hair & makeup by ...
A refreshing mint palette paired with an oceanside views sound gorgeous enough, but add in the fact that this family affair is brimming with DIY details? Well, it puts the significance in the celebration.

And summer is full of reasons to celebrate—beyond the gorgeous weather and all-around good vibes, there's Father's Day, Summer Solstice, Fourth of July, and countless others. We rounded up our favorite outdoor parties to inspire you to put on...
There's a reason this Bride's Bobbi Brown lipstick shade is called "Old Hollywood," and it's because nothing says classic glamour quite like a red lip. Complemented with a neutral smokey eye and sultry black cat-eye, this makeup...
My favorite part of any wedding is by far the Father/Daughter dance. The moment the music starts to play, I quickly become a little girl again picturing what that moment will feel like to me, often resulting in a few tears. In honor of Father's Day, we asked our lovely SMP editors to share their...
From messy buns and tousled waves to loose braids and even bedhead, the lived-in look is our favorite for summer hair. To nail this trend, we'll be following these 10 commandments for undone hair featured over at Sarah Sarna (an SMP favorite!).

Ahhhh, Paris. The City of Light, City of Love... Whatever you call it, Paris is truly magical, and the most romantic city in the world to fall in love -- and have your engagement session! Blogger Bride-to-be, C.J. of Toe That Line, and her handsome fiancé (who met on an international class trip in law school!) did just that, and shared all the ...
Happy tears? Well, they're something I'm all too familiar with - especially after watching the Fiore Films below. Because it's the moving words shared from the Bride's father that'll have you reaching for a few tissues. A day filled with love and desserts a la Cake Studio Of Ocean City...
Happy weekend, lovelies! For this week's Bouquet Breakdown, we have this gorgeously organic and lush peony-filled bouquet from last week's Rustic Glam Summer Wedding at Sunstone Winery. You already knew that...
Written by Katie Sweeney from MyDomaine ... "When I found the hardback, navy-blue 1945 edition of Etiquette: The Blue Book of Social Usage by Emily Post at a library sale a few years ago, I immediately snatched it up. As a modern hostess who prides herself on following etiquette rules (I always RSVP and never show up to a party empty-handed!), I couldn’t help but wonder how entertaining was in the past." Aside from the obvious differences (invitations weren’t emailed!), there’s a...
It's no secret that here at SMP, we are obsessed with all weddings of every shape and size. So when we came across this amazing video from Brides Magazine in honor of Pride Month, we just couldn't help ourselves. Caution: it's a tear-jerker!
Guacamole gets all the crazy eyes these days, but salsa you had our hearts from the very beginning. Easy to make and a total crowd-pleaser, salsa is our go-to party dip, and this version made with roasted tomatillo and pineapple from Sequins At Breakfast is what we'll be eating all summer long. "This salsa strikes the perfect balance between sweet and spicy and roasting the tomatillos and onions gives it a slightly charred flavor that really...
Remembering being a little girl and standing on your Dad's feet to dance? I do, it happens to be one of my fondest memories. So, with Father's Day on Sunday (the day before my own wedding) it's moments like those that I can't wait to relive. Although this time I won't need the boost in height, it's that simple spin on the dance floor that we're dishing this week and we've asked Boston Common Band to share a few of their favorite...
