Even though they were fewer and farther between, these are the centerpieces that still gave us heart eyes. Sweet + Simple Lavender Mason Jars Pretty tiered…
Intimate weddings have become such a thing that even with the loosened COVID restrictions, they don’t appear to be going away anytime soon! I’ll be honest, I am THRILLED that intimate weddings are here to stay. But how do you add wow factor when your guest count is low? The good news is, it isn’t…
