My first job ever out of college was at PR firm located right across the street from the beautiful Boston Public Library. I still remember watching a bride walk out of that stately building and thinking to myself, that is one lucky lady. Fast forward to today, and I find myself staring longingly at that stately building again, but this time through the gorgeous images ...
You Cape Cod sweeties really know how to throw a beach wedding. I'm talking a seriously sophisticated, downright elegant, toes-in-the-sand kind of affair. The kind of day that makes me want to throw out every plan I've ever dreamt up for my "someday" (and, let's face it, there are many) and start exclusively pinning only Cape Cod soirees. Ones like this beauty captured by Katie Noble Weddings, which is literally overflowing...
You know what I love? Getting to know couples through their wedding, particularly when they are as personal as this beauty captured by Shane Godfrey Photography at the deCordova Sculpture Park and Museum. Every detail stylishly crafted by Kor Floral was so "them" - giving us a peek at just how fabulous they are.
I compare weddings like this one to that first breath of fresh air after a rainstorm. You know what I mean... that overwhelming feeling of happiness and contentment that fills your entire body when you open up the front door and soak it all in. It's just sooo good. And this darling gem of a day is just that; a beautiful Harrington Farm affair that leaves you wanting to breathe in every.single.moment. From the lovely blooms crafted...
We are big fans of Kari Herer over here at SMP, and one peek at this beyond stunning Boston Public Library wedding and you'll see why. It's as though each of her images tell the most lovely of stories, and when those stories are surrounding a Bride and Groom as gorgeous as these two? Pure wedding magic happens. We end up with a gallery worthy of some serious...
Weddings will always make me swoon, that's a given. But if you want to really know what makes me tick, it's the stories behind the soirees. The effort, the thought, the days that led up to a beautiful Bride walking down the aisle to meet her Groom. Which is precisely why I fell head over heels in love with this Martha's Vineyard beauty captured by Jocelyn Filley Photography. It's gorgeous backyard wedding meets the sweet stylings of...
I basically live for two things: football and weddings. I know, I know... it's a strange combo. But, every once in awhile those two things merge in the coolest of ways, like in this beautiful East Bridgewater wedding captured by Katie Hall Photography. You see, this darling bride and groom happened to meet at a Patriot's game - and after a day spent cheering on their favorite team, well... the rest is history. A move to Seattle...
An intimate Nantucket wedding at The Chanticleer basically sounds like heaven to me, and one peek at the pretty captured by Henry + Mac and it's safe to say it looked like heaven too. With sweet DIY touches to make the wedding personal, a candlelit dinner and florals so beautiful they'll leave you breathless - this Nantucket wedding is a one for the books, and you can see...
Any girl who describes her dream wedding as "soft, sophisticated, and, mostly, pretty" is a girl who would fit in here at SMP without the blink of an eye. And when she handmakes her entire, soft, sophisticated, pretty soiree, well, let's just say we're rolling out the welcome mats. She wed her love in a wedding captured by Pizzuti Studios, that simply put, was a...
This couple has made it through some pretty great, big distances in their relationship (just see below) so at the end of the distance and the beginning of the "we" they decided to throw a gorgeous, and I mean gorgeous, soiree to celebrate their love. And lucky for us, the amazingly talented Daniel Aaron Sprague was on hand to capture the whole thing... so we've got...
When your mother is the owner of Fatima's Bridal in New Bedford, finding the dress of your dreams becomes the easiest part of planning your wedding. Especially when she happens to have custom gown making down to an absolute science. And when this darling bride found the prettiest lace ever in NYC, she knew it was just the fabric she needed to create her dream gown. The result? A seriously gorgeous work of art that shines bright in...
Charming. If there was one word I could place on this picture perfect wedding from Rachel Kate Photography, that would be it - charming. It's the type of fête where you can just feel the sweetness by simply scrolling through the gallery, and I can't think of anything better than that. Add the gorgeous vistas of this couple's beloved Martha's...
I love coastal New England. And it's weddings like this one from Katie Pietrowski Photography that make me remember all the reasons why. Beyond its gorgeous beaches, delicious clambakes, and shingled houses - what I absolutely love the most are the people that retreat to the stunning sandy shores. Take these two newlyweds for example, they nailed that seaside chic feel on their big day in a way you would only see in New England...
I've never met a styled shoot I didn't want to swoon, but this Kentucky Derby bridal shower takes that love to a whole new level. And what's even better than playful pastels, pretty pink florals and those wide brimmed hats are the vendors who pulled it all together. I'm talking creatives like Lauren Wells, Pollen Floral Design and ...
There's just something about a Martha's Vineyard wedding that can't be replicated elsewhere. Maybe it has a little something to do with the breathtaking scenery and beautiful traditions steeped into the island's history... the exact something that drew these two sweeties to Edgartown to host their nautical-inspired soiree. Styled to perfection by Desiree Spinner Events and featuring beautiful blooms from ...
Stories are what make my heart sing. I love to hear how two people go from strangers to lovebirds, and Kirra Cheers is my kindred spirit in that regard. Her images of these two soon to be Mr. & Mrs are beautiful, of course, but they are also taken on the street in Boston that started their love story - which has my heart singing the sweetest of songs.

Katie Gardner Photography captured all the crafty goodness, so be sure to soak up every last inspirational image right here.
Photography: Gabe Aceves Photography There really aren't words for what our beloved city has been through this week. This horrible event has hit so very close to home, and although we are all safe at this moment, it has shaken us to our core. These are our neighbors, our friends, our friends of friends. And to our fellow Bostonians, we pray that you stay safe and sound and that we can all use this time to pause and really understand the magnitude of...
There is so much I want to say about our beloved city right now. I could go on and on about how its cobblestone streets are the most charming, or how its historic sights can't be matched, or how it's quirky design can't be compared (have you ever tried to navigate this pretty city?) - but the thing I absolutely love most are the people that fill it's gas-lamp lit streets. People like these two cuties captured by ...
I love to dance. Being an 80's baby, I will forever love Dirty Dancing and Footloose. So, it's no surprise that when the tunes start at a wedding, I kick my heels off and don't stop for the rest of the night. But behind the scenes and before all the fun can happen, choosing entertainment for your wedding can be quite a challenge. Should you have a band or a DJ? What should you look for when hiring entertainment? How much should you budget? Jonathan Wiegratz of...
