To Break Bread
When I was growing up, I loved sharing dinner with my family while sitting outside in the warm evening air, and I still feel the same way now. It is something I always look forward to when the weather gets warm and the days get longer, which is why enjoying meals outdoors with family and friends makes the list of my favorite things about summer.

Inspiration Board {Summer Fun & Games}
We are focusing on things to love about summer this week, and for today's Wedding Wednesday, we have an inspiration board for a celebration that fully embraces the season.
This wedding would be a playful, afternoon affair for close family and friends. Both ceremony and reception would take place outside, and the day would be filled with classic games including croquet and badminton.
The decor for this event would be colorful and cheerful, while the food would be simple and reflective of the season with items such as burgers, blueberries, and ice cream on the menu.
Row 1: L to R- Jose Villa, Phyllis Asher, Karl Juengel. Row 2: Alexandra Rowley, Jose Villa, Pottery Barn- Summer '08. Row 3: Anna Kuperberg, Millie Holloman via Southern Weddings, Carrie Patterson. Row 4: James Carriere Photography, Adrienne & Michale- Kelli Cohee via Once Wed, Joe Schmelzer.

Girls In White Dresses
I am not sure where Spring went this year, but it certainly flew by quickly! It's hard to believe that June is already upon us.
Since June signifies the start of summer to me, this week I wanted to take a look at some of my favorite things about the season, and nothing says summer quite like a white dress.
