Last month I had the incredible opportunity to work with some amazing vendors on a gorgeous stylized shoot! Alyssia from Alyssia B Photography and I joined forces and created something so beautiful, so elegant and truly classic. It was so much fun (and incredibly stressful) to plan and I have a whole new perspective on planning a wedding. Brides, both past and present, you have all of my empathy. Planning a wedding, and all the details that go into that can be so crazy! And interest doesn’t make it any easier! Anything I see on there, I wanted to re-create, but making it all flow together, while keeping with our simple and elegant theme, proved to be quite the task. In the end, I am so proud of how it turned out. I am so grateful to all the vendors that participated, as none of the beauty before you would have been possible without them. Once again, I will tell you that I truly do have the prettiest friends around, and Camilla and Mike are no exception. I was literally drooling when looking at the back of my camera all night! Love their chemistry and the love they still feel for one another!
First, the images, then after the jump, look for the full list of vendors!

Life can get a little crazy…ok who am I kidding?? My life is wild!! But i have learned to roll with the punches and find humor in everything. Lucky for me I have 2 beautiful and amazing children. They light up my life, and one incredibly supportive husband. Couldn’t ask for anything better. Happy Friday everyone!!
