Today we are featuring the most gorgeous wedding....filled with sweet, charming details and a bride that is absolutely lovely. Being involved in events and such, she was able to really design a wedding that reflected her own chic, effortless style. Where friends and family took center stage and where pure romance wasn't designed but simply fell into place. Her budget for the wedding was $17,000. Some of you may consider this a fabulous wedding for that budget, others are working with much...
The minute I saw this wedding, I swooned. It satisfies my new passion for vintage style photography, it's the soft elegance that we love so much here on SMP and it was all about the charm. Basically perfection in a nutshell.

Since it's the fashion that really made me jump for joy, I figured we'd have the bride start there!
For the Ceremony I wore a BCBG...
There are two reasons that I randomly decided to create this DIY project. The first, is that after seeing so many of you comment on the one crafted for the Aaron Delesie rehearsal dinner, I thought that it would be fun to just give you something that you could do on your own! The second reason is that I've been working so hard at writing, at making the site a beautiful, completely clean...
And speaking of great rehearsal dinners, I am head over heels for this Mexican inspired affair that Amy Nichols designed! It's the perfect way to welcome your guest...a few margaritas, some great music and a casual but festive vibe. Love. Love. Love.
Timothy Teague shot these perfect photographs and completely captured the spirit and fun of the day. You know...
The color palette is what really sold me on this rehearsal dinner that Aaron Delesie sent me. It's the definition of perfection...a subtle teal blue, a washed out orange and a crisp white. Ahhh, it just doesn't get any better! Throw in a few pretty blankets, some adirondack chairs and lovely lanterns and you have the best version of campside elegance.
The green, mossy centerpieces are the perfect element of texture against...
Yesterday we featured the most gorgeous Aaron Delesie / Lisa Vorce wedding you've ever seen. Well today, Aaron sent over the RIDICULOUS rehearsal dinner that the couple threw...complete with a fresh, contemporary color palette and the most perfect details in the world. Love, love...
I have this thing for perfect cakes. Really simple, sweet cakes that scream style. When I spotted these little beauties, designed by Sweet and Saucy Shop, I found a huge smile that I just couldn't put away!
For me, the best cakes are those that are edited, tailored and timeless. Those that are inspired by fashion, by design, by all things chic. And...

Taaa-Daaaa! The secret is out of the bag! We have a brand spanking new site and man oh man, are we excited!

Before we get into the last of the details from today's featured affair, I wanted to say a HUGE thank you to Robert and Kathleen for sending this to us and of course, to Dagney and Michael for letting us share in the celebration.

This afternoon we are all about travel inspired weddings. And when we saw this one, photographed by the incredible Robert and Kathleen Trenske, our heart did a little pitter patter. It's just so unbelievably romantic. Seriously makes me want to swoop my husband away for an incredible vacation, a trip to Paris, a weekend of kisses, old movies and really great champagne.

A few more little bits of travel inspired detail...loving this suitcase and luggage tag welcome pack designed by Studio R. Super cute red and blue palette too!
These luggage tag place cards were sent to us by the fabulous team at Table 6 Productions. Too, too cute.
I completely heart these next details. The first, suitcases, were also...
I am not much for themes when it comes to weddings. I am not much for themes when it comes to anything. BUT, there is the rare exception to the rule in my book of all things great...travel. I've started to see weddings that focus on travel and long distance loves start to pop up and there is just something so romantic about the idea.
We have a gorgeous travel themed affair coming up in a bit, but before we get to it, I wanted to share some fun travel inspired details that I've found...
