A sweetly crafted day of...

You know why I love A Brit & A Blonde? Well, other than the fact that they are two of the sweetest photogs you will ever meet? They are crazy talented. In a way that kind of takes your breath away.

DIY has come such a long, lovely way. Don't you agree? Brides (and their families) just keep getting craftier and we get to reap the stylish rewards through weddings like this one captured beautifully by Hales Studio.

I kind of live for weddings like this. Weddings that are the perfect combination of laid-back and whimsical, with a dash of DIY thrown in for good measure. Weddings that turn simple mason jars into chalkboard-infused cocktail carriers and BBQ and s'mores into the perfect wedding yumminess. It's a day that joins one darling duo with the perfect stylings of Sittin in a Tree Weddings and a whole lot of pretty captured by...
I've been in a New York state of mind lately, with visions of romantic soirees at The Harold Pratt House and Peterson Hall dancing around my head.
