This interior designer by day bride takes DIY to another level. How so you ask? Well she not only designed the bridesmaid dresses, boutonnieres and so much more but she also designer her own gown. Yes, her own gown. How amazing is that? I am just in awe of all she was able to accomplish, and still make it such a fabulous party at the end of the day. My party hat is off to this couple for sure! For even more inspiring images from...

And so it comes as no surprise that Anne & J.B. would choose Fredericksburg for their destination...

Today we are looking at the art of an indoor wedding...finding chic ways to really beautify a space. I love this wedding that Brian and Stella Alesi sent me for the absolutely lovely details. It's not over-the-top, it's not overly designed. It's simple and totally SMP...
