Today on Style Me Pretty

The wedding I just posted last week on the blog is featured today on Style Me Pretty! It's funny, the day I wrote up that blog post I thought to myself - Emily's wedding really should be on Style Me Pretty, about five hours later Emily emailed to tell me that it would be featured soon! Crazy-Cool!

I love the photos by Jenna Walker that are included on the post.
