Happy Friday, my dear friends! I don’t know about you guys, but I’m ready to do absolutely nothing this weekend. Emily and I traveled to South Carolina for another V6 photo shoot this week and the next four weekends are full of my own personal travel plans. So I intend to just enjoy my apartment for the next two days (and catch up with my momma on Sunday, of course!).
Speaking of travel, we were blissfully (and okay, jealously,) soaking in the photos from Emily’s honeymoon to Nevis, where she and John stayed at the beautiful Montpelier Plantation and Nisbet Plantation.
With two shoots for V6 now finished, we think it’s high time we gave you a proper sneak peek! Last week’s shoot with Katie Stoops was berry exciting!
We’re even giving away two High Cotton bow ties from the shoot to celebrate! Enter here.
We think moms are the backbone of the South and love that weddings and Mother’s Day are both wonderful excuses to publicly honor them. We posted a few of our favorite mom-centered wedding moments.
Real weddings steal our hearts!
Molly Gee + Justin’s Mississippi wedding was full of lovely details, gorgeous flowers and the bride’s own designs! See it here.
Kelly + Corey’s military wedding proved that distance is no obstacle in the face of true love! See it here.
