Every now and then, we see a wedding that makes us blush. The kind of blushing you do when you just know that it was so incredibly romantic...so overflowing with total love. And blushing is exactly what we did when we spotted this next little beauty. Held at the absolutely enchanting Calamigos Ranch in Malibu, this wedding will easily make you fall in love all over again and just might make you rethink all of your wedding decisions thus...
Good morning, lovelies! We're kicking off the day with a wedding that just screams girly goodness. Which is exactly the kind of wedding that I love the most, filled with pretty feminine touches, gorgeous florals and a bride and groom that make you want to give your own hubby a good, long squeeze. Throw in some seriously gorgeous design by Amorology and photographs by...
This next little number is proof that inspiration can come from just about anywhere. And in this bride and groom's case, it was all about The Parker Palm Springs. And the incredible black and yellow palette with modern, whimsical detailing. Yep, this style savvy couple interpreted the gorgeousness of The Parker with their Canadian venue and the result was a jawdroppingly gorgeous, completely graphic inspired affair.
Even in the most beautiful of beautiful weddings, there is usually one or two things that completely catch my attention and force me to devour every inch of the affair. And in the case of this next wedding...it was ALL about the flowers. And the gorgeous, adorable, totally charming wedding cake. The bride and groom really approached their wedding 2 ways, with a Western foundation and a heavy infusion of the groom's Chinese culture. And the result, was absolutely lovely.
I'm pretty sure that heaven looks exactly like this next wedding. Set in Portofino, Italy...it's the epitome of beauty. The epitome of luxury, the epitome of total gorgeousness. And thank goodness Corbin Gurkin, who happens to specialize in really beautiful weddings, was on hand to photograph every last detail. This is one of those affairs that you will fall in love with every time you look at it and frankly, I'm pretty sure that the...
This next wedding has SMP written all over it. It's charming, it's undeniably pretty, it's heavy on picture perfect details and and it has personality for days. Oh and it looks like a total blast. I seriously heart this bride and groom for taking the time to infuse their day with so many sweet touches that really represented their own personalities and Amber Karson Events for bringing it all to life. Absolutely lovely.
We've been working with the team at PurePhoto on a fun new project that we're absolutely dying to tell you about. It's a totally comprehensive, no-holds-barred ONLINE photography workshop geared specifically to brides and grooms-to-be. The thing is, we get a TON of questions from couples who are so hoping to get that SMP style photography with their own wedding images, but are kind of lost as to where to begin. Especially if they don't...
Even though it definitely feels like Winter here in New England, we aren't letting go of Fall THAT easily. We still have a handful of absolutely gorgeous Fall inspired affairs and this one, well...it's Fall's finest. Designed by A Savvy Event and Frenchie & Flea (remember...
Okay kids. New favorite wedding alert. BIG time. This drop dead gorgeous bride approached her day with SUCH charm, such sweet style and personality, you can't help but fall in love. You can just tell that every detail was thoughtfully crafted and lovingly designed so that the wedding really told a story about the bride and the groom's personality. And when I say that this wedding is a new favorite, it definitely has a lot to do with the killer style of the day. But even more to do with the...
We are beyond thrilled to bring you this next little tidbit of wedding goodness. SMP has cozied up with Blue Nile for their aaahhh-mazing “Ring It. Sing It.” holiday contest...giving one lucky couple the perfect proposal weekend. So, if you're nearly engaged (and we KNOW there are a lot of you out there) you could win a...wait for it...a diamond engagement ring, a trip to NYC and the chance to pull off the...
I think we just might have saved the best for last and in a full day of wedding gorgeousness...that says a lot! We've been obsessed with this insanely beautiful wedding that photographer Kristin Vining (who we heart big time) sent our way since the moment we opened the very first image. It's kind of like a fairytale wedding taken up a notch, with CRAZY chic styling and a modern but timeless approach to design. A combination that just...
We don't feature a ton of e-sessions on SMP because we like to focus more on the details and the style of a real wedding...BUT, I couldn't resist sharing this one with you. The photographs, by CLY Creation, are so insanely beautiful. Romantic, ethereal, artistic. Images that you could easily hang on the walls of your home and without a doubt use as incredible inspiration for your own engagement portraits. To see even more...
I have to admit, this next wedding...is all about the bride. The groom is definitely dreamy and their wedding is totally adorable with perfect candy and pops of gorgeous color, but the bride? A TOTAL knock-out. She has more spunk and style than a blogger could ever wish for and is literally ROCKING that super short, super cute dress. She's definitely cooler than I will ever be and I officially love her. And if you have to see more...
We are cranking it up a notch with this next wedding, sent to us by the always fabulous Natasha of Waterlily Pond. Natasha is a floral and event design genius and always approaches wedding decor with SUCH a fresh perspective. One part whimsy, one part total elegance. And this wedding is the epitome of her uber-chic style. Photographed by Cliff Brunk, this is one of those...
You just might mistake this next little number for a photoshoot. The details are so ridiculously perfect, it's almost hard to believe that it was an honest to goodness wedding, with an honest to goodness bride. And the moment we laid eyes upon it, we were instantly friends. The sweet but lovely decor, the edited approach to design, the personality and the magazine-worthy style...all kind of added up to absolute perfection. Photographed by...
So, we've feasted on the pure beauty of Paul and Krystal's gorgeous New England wedding...one stunning photograph after another where the love and the joy literally jumps off the page. But now it's time to get down to the nitty gritty. The details. And after photographing weddings for over a decade, this pair knows how to do great SMP style details. Plus, they enlisted the help of...
It's pretty incredible to see how different photographers approach the very same wedding. Although the details are the same, the way that we read them are so incredibly different. And each photographer has that little something special that really makes their images beautiful. So when I found out that Paul and Krystal of Studio Foto hired three of our favorite photographers to shoot their day, I knew that we were in for SUCH a treat.
What do you get when you pair two brilliant photographers together for ten years...shooting wedding after gorgeous wedding while simultaneously building their own home, their own love, their own dreams? Well, you get a wedding that has soul. That has depth. That has an undeniable beauty, filled to the brim with the most incredible details a girl could ever want. The kind of wedding that Paul and Krystal of Studio Foto threw when they...
This is one of those weddings that will make you grin from ear to ear, head to toe. It's a wedding that is off the charts in terms of styles and chic design, and yet it's the really fun, totally laid back details that completely jump off the page and leave you wanting so much more. The bride and her adorable groom did much of the wedding on their own and really thought creatively about how to infuse their day with total personality. Photographed by...
This is hands down the best interpretation of a Halloween wedding I have ever seen. Gorgeous Fall hues, elements of bohemian textures and metals, potted succulents and tiny touches of spook in all the right places. It's subtle but spectacular and a wedding that has totally and completely changed my mind about Halloween. Just goes to show that even the most goolish themes can be absolutely, positively drop dead gorgeous. With images by...
