There is something about a Melissa Sweet gown that just takes a wedding and makes it perfect. It's like the Melissa Sweet brides are one part creative, one part romantic, and one part chic. This Oregon wedding, captured by Holland Studios, is the ideal, sweet wedding. Filled to the brim with amazing florals from...
Welcome back to what promises to be another amazing week here at SMP! Kicking off the pretty parade is this sweet Maryland wedding by Kate Headley Photography that just so happens to be overflowing with the most amazing display of flowers I've seen in a long time. I love all the soft, muted colors juxtaposed with the maids black cocktail dresses. Totally brilliant.
Confession: I have a thing for sweaters. I just might own one in every color and would wear them every single day if I could. So when I spied with my little eyes all those pretty bridesmaids lined up in a row and sporting a magnificent array of colorful knitwear; it completely made my year. Jason + Anna Photography captured the magic swirling around this...
There is something oh-so-sweet about this Houston wedding. I can't quite put my finger on it. It could be the adorable, little flower girl, peeking at the bride. Or maybe the bride herself, stunning in her Melissa Sweet gown. Perhaps it is the warm and romantic ambiance, courtesy of all the candles. Or the green palette, so fresh and floral. You know what? The more I think about it, the more I realize it is...
I am madly in love with this next wedding by the always fabulous Daughter of Design. And I mean madly. From those red Kate Spade heels (swoon) to the stunning location (double swoon) to all of the gorgeous, gorgeous images captured by Verité Boutique Photographers, there are not enough minutes in the day for this wedding and me. ...
Once again I am enthralled and captivated by a Hawaiian destination wedding. I swear there must be magic swirling around those big, beautiful islands that seeps into each and every detail of the nuptials that take place there. Greg Lappin Photography brings us this simple and sweet celebration from the island of Kauai. Classic and whimsical meets beachy and breezy. ...
This contemporary Philadelphia wedding, seen through the lens of Sofia Negron, had me at that dress. That perfect, simple dress with the over the top, fabulous back. It is THE gown for this chic affair - classic with amazing, gorgeous little details. Coordinated by lovely Lynda of I DO Wedding Consulting, the whole fête went down at the...
San Francisco is one of my favorite cities in the world. It is urban and romantic, sophisticated with layers upon layers of history, chic and playful. This wedding by Plum Events in the city by the bay encapsulates the multifaceted personality of the city that the bride and groom both live in and adore. Set in one of the city's finest restaurants, it just goes to show that you don't need a quaint backyard or glittering ballroom...
There isn't a rule in the Wedding Planning Handbook that says high-maintenance = high style, and this is just the wedding to prove that. The delegating duo in this darling affair picked vendors they loved, and then just let it all fall into place. The October occasion ended up being a perfect fall fair, and the proof is in the pudding...or in this case, the proof is in all the lovely images by Uplift Photography in...
There is nothing like spending a Friday soaking up a healthy dose of inspiration! Especially when that inspiration comes in the form of a subtly '60s, clementine-hued, modern collection from one of our amazing inspiration board mavens Mfrezza. 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 feel like this next wedding is a page out of some great romance film. Like Leonardo Di Caprio should be smoking a cigar and Reese Witherspoon should be rocking a sequined gown, riding an elephant in the background. Okay, maybe not an elephant but doing something fabulously glamorous. It's the kind of wedding that just sweeps you up and makes you fall in love all over again. Thanks to the insanely beautiful photography by...
There is something about a wedding under the stars that gets me every.single.time. Photography extraordinaire Chelsea Elizabeth sent us this little Los Angeles number and it has all the makings for an alfresco fave: outdoor festivities at Cafe Pinot, bright and beautiful florals by...
Sometimes it's a perfect detail that really gets me. Other times it's a fabulous dress, a gorgeous photograph or the most lovely cake on the planet. But today, it's the story. It's a tear jerker for sure but one that I think we can all learn from. Plus, it's one of the sweetest, prettiest weddings we've seen and is overflowing with steal-worthy deets. Pink, peony filled, totally girly steal worthy-deets.
I definitely have tomboy tendencies but show me anything with a Parisian flair and I turn into a big squealing girly girl. This Napa Valley wedding by Michelle Walker Photography definitely got my heart racing with blue and white Parisian street signs, French-inspired postcards and an all around feeling of whimsy and enchantment. And how cute are those custom cake toppers made to look like the bride and groom down to her...
I love Dan and Natalie of Watson Studios. For many reasons, but on the top of my list is their ability to capture the very essence of the couple's personality in each and every wedding I've seen from them. So you know when they were asked to capture the wedding of their dear friend in the gorgeous mountains of North Carolina, it was going to be a good one. Well folks, it turned out better than good. It's all that is lovely about...
It's easy to design a pretty wedding. A few beautiful flowers, a lovely white dress, maids dressed perfectly all in a row. The hard part is designing a pretty wedding that is also deeply personal and unique. The kind of wedding that guests remember for years and years to come.The kind of wedding that was built by a bride and groom who wanted their day to reflect their own unique vision and style. And yet those are just the kind of weddings that have us swooning here at SMP...and it just...
I am a bit of a brunch fanatic. Seriously, I could have it for every meal. How can you go wrong with crepes and mimosas? I have wanted to see the mid-morning wedding make a come back and I think its moment has finally arrived. This Washington D.C. wedding by Amelia Johnson Photography might just be the poster child for the break of day bash. It is refreshing and chic with sweet handmade goodies and a heaping pile...
I have a feeling y'all are going to just eat up this sweet as can be North Carolina, New Year's Eve wedding beautifully captured by Smitten Photography. The lovelies of Salt Harbor Design took a darling spin on the New Year's Eve theme with vintage clocks spread throughout the celebration to help keep with the classic feel of the wedding. Just as darling was...
I am loving this stunning bouquet, I am loving this darling couple and I am loving the industrial oasis that is The Foundry for a venue. That's a lot of loving for a Tuesday, and it was all captured by the talented Karen Wise. A terrific blend of culture and style, it's one of those weddings where it seems as though New York City was an honored guest, and for good reason! There is so...
This lovely Monday morning, we thought you could use a bit of a kick start - so here is a darling wedding AND a fabulous day after shoot by Sloan Photographers all wrapped up in one pretty little post.
