Love is in the air! 💛
We can feel it all around us on wedding days. When the couple`s loved ones are all gathered in one place and every carefully planned detail comes together. A lot goes into the perfect wedding day, florals, food, music, decor, and so much more. But at the end of the day, the smiling faces and celebration make all the planning worth it.
Congratulations to Jennifer & Cole who had a gorgeous fall wedding last year!
