Sometimes we can get caught up in the details, and rightly so. It's the flowers you choose, the candles you light, the paper suite you so carefully pick out that represent you as a couple. But inspirational shoots like this from Megan Pomeroy are proof that all you really need is love. The bride was dressed from head to toe in beauty by Rhylan Lang but aside from some...
Inspired by the story of this historical home, Geneve Hoffman Photography, Beautiful Days and their whole talented team put together a batch of beauty. A story told three ways, all of which spectacular. From the romantic tale of the lovebirds at center, to the timeless design, to the amazing images, it's the kind of soiree we would die to see come to life.
I'm a sucker for high school sweethearts, and these two are the sweetest. They met over homemade cookies and pies and fell in love over roasted 'mallows, all at her grandmother's country home. It doesn't get much cuter than that. Therese Marie Wagner Photography was the lucky lady to capture the adorable love between these two, and she's filled a gallery...
As this bride admits, planning a wedding can be a bit... overwhelming. But it's weddings just like hers that we think help inspire other brides-to-be... which is why it puts a smile on our face every day to share them with you. Weddings like this are extremely pretty, with the absolute best flowers (from Roberston's Flowers) and always focus around the love between the two people at center. And of course, are captured brilliantly...
Getting pretty for a party with the girls is always an event in itself, pop the bubbly, throw on some tunes and get gorgeous! So, when a friend tells me she's tying the knot, I look forward to all of the stylish soirees leading up to the big day. Whether it's a sophisticated bridal brunch, al fresco engagement dinner, or sassy bachelorette party, there's a style for each event. We got together with one of our lovely LBB fashion gurus, Sarah Baucom of...
When a puppy in a bowtie and a gorgeous view of the New York City skyline are trumped by a wedding, it's good. So, so good. And with Ulysses Photography behind the lens, it's like we were there experiencing every bit of the romance and beauty. So a BIG thank you to Ulysses Photography for letting us tag along with a gallery of gorgeous images.
One look at that lace cake. That's all it takes to fall in love with this wedding from LK Events. And to fall in love with the wedding is to fall in love with the couple, because they are even more perfect than that fab cake. Captured by Becky Hill Photography, the gallery is one that...
You would never guess that this bride wasn't the girl spinning around in her mother's veil at eight years old dreaming about her one day wedding. Because just as she picked a super charming husband, she planned a super beautiful wedding. A Southern Soiree was on hand to help bring her newly discovered dream to life, and Robin Lin Photography graciously captured every sweet detail.
This wedding is instant goosebumps. It's gorgeous blooms from Hana Floral Design, it's stunning reds and warm laughter, and it's a photo story from Ashley O'Dell that will warm every part of your being. I can't speak highly enough about this gorgeous soiree, so please, please promise me you'll block out a nice chunk of your day to spend...
It's weddings like this that make my job so romantic. Couples that are so sweet to one another, soirees fit for fun (and fabulous), and wedding films that bring a happy tear to my eye. Fiore Films creates the latter every time, and when the rest of the puzzle comes together like it does in this wedding, I can't help but thank my boss for letting me do what I do every single day.

I know some of you may be dancing in the streets as the start of Spring is here, but for someone who loves winter, I felt we needed a proper farewell. Craig Photography sent over the sweetest engagement shoot that does the job perfectly, so to all my winter loving lovelies, make sure to peek at the gallery for every snowy moment. Enjoy your hopefully...
Okay, my new favorite thing in the world is when two talented designers get married. Why? Because the wedding looks like this. Lexia Frank Photography sent over images that were a swoon at first glance and as I've spent my time diving deeper and deeper into the gallery, I've fallen more and more in love. It's the kind of wedding you'll be in awe over, the kind...
Unparalleled beauty. mk Photography produces unparalleled beauty every single time that camera is picked up. And today is no exception. That camera and the talent behind it were guests at a Philadelphia wedding so perfect, it could have only been planned by Proud to Plan (it was) and so beautiful, it could only belong to a couple so in love.
This may be the cutest "first look" I've ever seen. These two didn't want to break tradition, but needed just a little squeeze before walking down the aisle, so they held hands one last time before saying "I do." And the look on the grooms face... the glowing happiness brought on by enormous amounts of love... had me in tears instantly. Thank goodness Kim Le Photography was on hand to capture that magical moment. There is so much...
From the very beginning, this couple set out to plan an elegant soiree to celebrate their love. Atelier Isabey was on the job, setting the tone for a gorgeous wedding. And gorgeous it was, if Carla Ten Eyck's images have anything to say about it. The whole day teetered on the edge of "just as beautiful as the bride," never quite tipping over, only because she is unbelievably...
I have a grin from ear to ear today. Why, you ask? It's officially Spring!!! And there are so many things to love about that. I am personally celebrating a few things... today is my seven year anniversary with the love of my life, I'm looking forward to planting my garden, walks on the beach with our pup, and I'm SO ready for all of the sparkling new inspiration to come on SMP and SMP Living! We're starting off fresh today with...
Jen Fariello Photography makes magic. She takes a gorgeous wedding and captures it in a way that really shows off every beautiful light from the day. And when her photography is combined with the art that is Beehive Events' floral design, holy moly is it pretty. Pretty enough to spend a whole afternoon in...
When Palm Springs cool is invaded by the British, and Viera Photographics is there with their well seasoned cameras, it's a good day. It's a super fun, dance in your seat, laugh with the adorable couple kind of day. My little blogger booty has been dancing away in my chair since I laid eyes on that gorgeous bride and it's boogying straight into...
There is one color I fell head over heels with a long, long time ago, and it has never quite left my heart. So when a wedding with a palette built around a mint dominated ballroom pops up on my radar, it's like instant swoon. Laura Ivanova Photography's dreamy images captured a wedding so deserving of the adjective "perfect" it left me breathless, thanks to the sophisticated palette and the extra sweet love.
You may recognize this lovely bride's smile from American Idol. She was a finalist on Season 8, and her wedding? We'll let's just say, it's weddings like this that will live on the pages of SMP forever, known simply as stunning. Pretty as a picture (and oh Christina Carroll Photography's pictures tell quite the beautiful story), I can't help but file this one away in my wedding-brain-catalog under the heading of Gorgeous.
