    CIndy, I am in awe of all you did for this wedding! Gorgeous. I love every single little bit! The tables with the yellow stripes, and the buckets of flowers were just darling..Especially love the ceremony in the open there and looking toward the mountains. You transformed your driveway into such a festive and pretty spot! Looks like this was a whole family effort of love and it shows. How fortunate you are to have such a talented and close family! The bride looked so beautiful and I loved her dress and the bridesmaids dresses and colors!

    I am going to pin a bunch of these!

    Beautiful is the only word for all of this! Every last detail was gorgeous, and I LOVE the color scheme. What a wonderful celebration of love! I will need to send this to my daughter since she is dreaming of making a career out of wedding and event planning. 🙂
