Okay, so yes, we had the gorgeous dress, the amazing florals from Erin at A Stem Above, the luckiest weather, that gorgeous rooftop, the incredible band. But what really made Amy and Sean's wedding so absolutely hands-down fantastic was Amy and Sean themselves. Down-to-earth, hilarious, and so in love, these two are just an awesome couple. Their ceremony was so unbelievably sweet and they had a blast chatting and dancing the night away with their equally-awesome guests.

Could we gush some more?? Yes we could, but let's let the photos from Z+V speak for themselves! Congratulations, you two beautiful people!

What's better than planning a wedding with a wonderful family? Planning the post-wedding birthday brunch for the FOB! After the incredible night Lizzie + Travis had, The Guesthouse Hotel was so accommodating and the perfect setting to ring in Sam Lovelady's 60th year. Gussied provided the music, and Ingrid captured the beautiful morning perfectly! We loved being a part of this wonderful family's weekend!

Love The Big Bang Theory? This one is for you. Kate and Stephen are both brilliant Chemical Engineers who met in college, fell in love, and got married in an awesome science-inspired wedding. From their out-of-the box venue, Ignite Glass Studio, to their centerpieces set in beakers, test tubes and urban meyer flasks, to the coolest lego card box we've ever seen, Kate and Stephen's happily ever after began with a colorful bang. We had a wonderful time planning with them, and wish them all the best! Congratulations, you two!
