Sometimes I get so caught up in the modern meets lofty awesomeness of NYC affairs that I forget about the other side of New York weddings. That soft, romantic side that sort of blows your mind with pretty. Romantic weddings like this one from the ever-talented Kelly Kollar Photography; a day that is sooo sophisticated and sooo elegant, you almost need a new adjective to describe it. See exactly why...

Yes, we celebrated all things fall yesterday, but I just couldn't help but keep that party going when I came across this pretty soiree from Caitlinn Mahar-Daniels. And when I say pretty, I mean gorgeous. Blush dress, gorgeous. Autumn styling taken to an whole new level, gorgeous. Oh my goodness is this real life, gorgeous. It will make you want to hold onto the autumn months for just a tad bit longer, and...
On this festive day, we thought we would celebrate all things fall on SMP New York, because really, we love any excuse we can get to cozy up with some autumn inspiration. And it doesn't get more fall than an apple orchard engagement that is as adorable as this one from Amy Rizzuto. So break out the flannel shirts and boots, and...
You know what's better than an entire shoot dedicated to 1920's glamour? An entire shoot dedicated to 1920's glamour that also happens to be planned and executed by a serious dream team of NYC vendors. Think the powerhouses that are Violet and Verde, Cake Alchemy, SB Beauty and ...
When a wedding has this much heart, you can almost feel it. Like the pure joy and love that went into crafting this Big Day is almost too much for the internet to handle (it is). I guess that has a little something to do with the darling bride and groom, who went about creating a day that will not only stand the test of time, but knock your socks off with its pretty. Think lush, pink blooms from Violet and Verde meets a gorgeous...

As a wedding blogger, every so often I come across a wedding that I absolutely must spend time with. I flip through the images one at a time and give each one a nice good look. I ooh and aah over and over again. Today's wedding is just such a wedding. Alexandra Meseke Photography's images of the day make it seem like such a beautiful, romantic, intimate affair, and I'm ridiculously grateful for the bride and groom allowing us a peek...

I am starting off this darling post with a little quote from Emilia Jane Photography, because, well... truer words were never spoken. "There's just something magical about Badgley Mischka in Central Park." Yes, Emilia Jane, we wholeheartedly agree. Especially when that Badgley Mischka is a glittery gold masterpiece worn by a gorgeous Mrs. celebrating her anniversary with her...
Rise and shine SMP New York! It's time to start the weekend, and we can't think of a better way to do just that than syncing you up with one of the newest members of our SMP New York family - Studio Webber. Trust me when I say, it will be time well spent. [dotted] We drool over gorgeous images day in and day out on SMP, so when we come across a photographer with as much talent as Michael Webber of ...
People have many reasons for loving Manhattan. The style, the pace, the food - it's all unlike anywhere else in the world. But my favorite thing about the city that never sleeps is the people. Because after pouring over hundreds (ok, probably thousands) of weddings in the City, I would say that's where the style comes from. Take this wedding by Jimena Roquero at the...

A gallery from Rouxby Photography that is all around fabulous. See it all here. From the...
Sometimes I come across weddings that just have so much style I can barely contain myself. Weddings that introduce you to a couple the minute you sneak a peek at all their gorgeous images. Weddings just like this one captured by Alec Vanderboom and planned by La Vie En Rose Events. It's a New York City stunner packed with personality, and...
If we're being totally honest with ourselves, I think we can agree Mondays aren't necessarily the most inspired day of the week. So when we came across this wedding after party from the always amazing Michelle Edgemont, we couldn't help but think it may be just the ticket to pull us all out of the Monday rut. Because with vendors like Nine Cakes, ...
You know what makes for a pretty amazing e-session backdrop? The West Village. It's filled with gorgeous + fun locales (Carrie Bradshaw's stoop, anyone?) and some of the most picturesque settings you will ever lay your eyes upon. Case in point? This beautiful gem from the ever-lovely Brklyn View Photography, an engagement sesh that seriously screams "chic" with a beyond stylish duo and moment after moment of pure...
I can't help but love every wedding that comes out of Oheka Castle. The venue is so versatile no two weddings feel the same - yet they all have that je ne sais quoi that wins me over. Take this one from Amy Rizzuto Photography. From the stunning invites from Heritage+Joy to the sunset kisses and...
When opposite styles mix and mingle in a wedding, beautiful things happen. Take this gorgeous little party at The Foundry captured by Entwined Studio for instance. It's this lovely combination of industrial and uber romantic, which just so happens to result in a wedding worth spending some serious time with.
