I am officially taking the day off.  It just might be the first time I’ve REALLY taken a day off.  I am going to spend the day catching up on all of those little things that seemed to have spun out of control (read…my mail, my inbox, my closet) since I’ve been so addicted to all things SMP. But, I didn’t want to leave you without your little bit of eye candy. And although this isn’t a wedding, I’m pretty sure that you are going to fall MADLY in love with...

There is a lot to love about today’s featured affair. It’s sweet simplicity. It’s utter charm. It’s approachable, effortless style. But most of all, I am totally smitten with the laid back elegance of the day. The umbrellas plopped inside a rain bucket, friends and family helping with the flowers, the picnic table and chair set up for guests. It’s all just so lovely!
