Growing up in a very suburban area of Detroit, surrounded by lakes, trees and nature, a visit to the city always evoked a sense of awe. I remember the first time I witnessed a wedding in a park in downtown Chicago, surrounded by skyscrapers and honking taxi cabs, and I thought to myself, “this is beautiful.” Beautiful doesn’t have to be a wedding in the country, or on the beach, or at a country club. The city in and of itself is beautiful and today’s inspiration board touches the part of me that absolutely adores the sharp contrasts between a soft, white wedding and the bright, loud lights of the city.
Please pay special attention to these products and links today, as many of them deserve recognition and hold a special place in my heart!
