Thursday Things We Love: Inspiration!
I love wedding blogs. And we are proud members of some of the biggest wedding networks: Style Me Pretty, Wedding Chicks, etc. BUT the blogosphere/pinterest does NOT have the answer for how to make your wedding feel like you.

Things We Love: clean & clear
While there is something so beautiful about the layered, vintage look I must confess I am craving clean lines and light, clear centerpieces and decor. All predictions are saying that after the Royal Wedding this week we will see a trend in the wedding world to more traditional affairs. I think it would be lovely [...]
