Today, we are featuring one of those weddings that everyone can love. Although not all brides swoon at the site of a fabulous loft affair, as I do, I think that it's fair to say that all brides swoon at the site of gorgeousness...in every shape and size!

When I was planning my own wedding, I had this fantasy of hosting an all white soiree in some swanky loft in NY. Clearly, that didn't pan out. But for some reason, whenever I see a really well done loft affair, I still get all giddy inside.
Today's wedding, sent to us by the adorable bride and groom, was all about the chic. Sophisticated, elegant and yet fabulously New York chic. Plus, it was designed by one of our favorite...

One of my very favorite movies (get ready for some serious cheese people) is The Notebook. I swear I've seen it 20 times and anytime that it's on TV, I find myself falling head over heels in love with it all over again. And when I opened the wedding that we are featuring tomorrow, I instantly saw that same vintage romance, that same total and unabashed love. So needless to say, I swooned.
Here is a little sneaky peek of the ridiculously in love couple...
