If you are new to the block, we’ll bring you up to speed before we immerse ourselves in total inspiration. Today is the...
I'll never forget the first wedding that we featured from photographer, Yvonne Wong. That wedding has become one of SMP's most loved affairs and I'm pretty sure that this next one will creep high up on your list of favs too. Sent to us by the beautiful bride and her equally dreamy hubs, it's Napa Valley at its finest, with pretty pops of color...

Ladies, let's be honest. There are times in all of our lives where we unleash the "girliness" from within. Times where we indulge all our feminine wants, turn up the Madonna and celebrate being a GIRL. For me it happens every time I step foot in Sephora. But it also happened on my wedding day. A day where all women, if they so choose, get to don an incredible handpicked dress, jazz up that hair of theirs and flutter around with the bouquet of their choice. Well, today's gorgeous...
Fall weddings are always pretty spectacular, but this past fall's weddings seemed to be even more so than usual!
And today's feature is no exception! Sent to us by LBB photographer Adrienne Maples, Erica & Brent's magnificent October wedding celebration began with the warmth of an awesome autumn day and culminated in a vibrant palette from around-the-world! Just wait 'til you see!

And the details...oh the details! photographs by the oh-so-talented Frank Becker and Sarah Jane of The Time Photography From Jennifer, the lovely bride...

I get emails here and there from brides who are looking to design a super chic wedding with their ceremony in a traditional church but with there reception in kind of a fun/funky spot. Well, that is just what today's bride did! I know that in many parts of the country, it's hard to find those great farms, the incredible seaside resorts, the modern lofts and the lakeside estates that we often feature on SMP. But, I will tell you this...EVERY town has hidden gems that are definitely worth...
I have to say, the best part about today's wedding is probably the ridiculously great reception that the couple threw. But, the ceremony details are pretty gorgeous too, so I wanted to share a few more photographs of those before we dive into the party! photographs by the oh-so-talented Frank Becker and Sarah Jane of The Time Photography More to come!
There is just something lovely about infusing your wedding with traditional touches.

Today's wedding, in Lexington, Kentucky is all about traditional charm...with a twist of course! photographs by the oh-so-talented Frank Becker and Sarah Jane of The Time Photography From the bride... We held our wedding ceremony at a small, country church that holds only 140 people. The small chapel made the...
Jennifer emailed me about a month ago with pictures and details from her recent wedding...and when I saw them, there was just something special there. From her traditional ceremony held in a small chapel in Lexington, Kentucky to her ridiculously great reception at the Kentucky Aviation Museum (complete with airplanes hanging from the ceiling!). And of course, her dress...oh her wedding dress. photographs by the oh-so-talented Frank...
If the gowns that I featured earlier today were stunning in their simplicity and affordability, this next set of gowns are those that we dream about as little girls. Fairytale dresses fit for a queen.

Last month I did a write-up on the Fall 2007 gowns...I really thought that I had found my favorites for the season. Well, as I was doing yesterday's inspiration board, I discovered so many more that I am madly in love with. I am particularly in awe of the beautiful detailing that seems to be mastered this season...from antique lace to delicate beading. Some a bit traditional and others more unique and...
I have had a few people write to me requesting an Inspiration Board that reflects an ultra-glamorous affair...complete, unabashed luxury. With a bit of bling. So today's board isn't really for anyone in particular, but rather for all of those girls reading this blog, that dream of a lavish wedding fit for a princess.
