Good morning lovelies! We hope you all had an amazing weekend and are looking forward to the week ahead. Ours is jam packed as we are in Italy for the start of it planning some fun for later in the year, I unfortunately have a birthday that I'd rather not talk about and most importantly, Amy is actually overdue her first baby so hopefully, we will have a little bundle in the coming days. You can imagine how excited I am to be getting an office baby. With a child only days away, we are feeling pretty bad that we still haven't gotten around to showing Amy's beautiful destination wedding to my brother Gabriel over 18 months ago! In September 2013, fifty of us travelled from all over the world to spend four fab days at Hawksdene House nestled at the foot of the Blue Ridge mountains. Mike and I travelled from Mexico to Atlanta about a week ahead of the wedding to join the rest of our family and friends and all I can say is, they were two of the best weeks of our entire trip around the world. We spent the first few days "wine tasting" and planning the details of the wedding before heading up to North Carolina two days before the big day. While I'm mad to get into the details and tell stories of the fun we had, we do have two more days over which we are featuring their Hawkesdene House wedding so for now, I'll leave you in the incredibly talented Rylee Hitchner 's hands who captured the day to perfection.
