Dress Up: Wedding Wear

There are so many things I love about wedding season, but near the top of my list is the excuse to step out in some of my finest threads. I actually bought this lace and neon combo for my own rehearsal dinner last spring, but I pulled it out again this month for our friends Maxwell and Genevieve’s wedding.

Max and Gen are a pretty stylish pair themselves. Instead of opting for a traditional wedding dress, Genevieve wore a gorgeous navy blue Zac Posen gown down the aisle. It was stunning! In fact, I may have to ask Max and Gen if I can share a few pictures from their wedding in a later post. Stay tuned…

Congrats Maxwell and Genevieve!

Relationship Question: Do You Celebrate Your Dating Anniversary?

Confession: Mark and I recently passed our 10-year mark as a couple, but since we got married last June, we pretty much skipped over the date. I sent him a sweet little text reminding him what day it was and he responded, but the day was nothing out of the ordinary. Continue reading
