Courtney and James share that kind of relationship that is so heartwarming…they are truly each others best friend in every way and it was such a joy to see them tie the knot in a beautiful ceremony surrounded by their closest friends and family. They are the kind of people that make you feel so welcome and I’m so thankful to  have been a part of their special day! It was a dream holiday wedding from start to finish…Courtney’s sparkly tulle dress and James’ grandmother’s fur, the gorgeous winter florals, a special surprise appearance from Buddy the Elf and a hot chocolate bar at their reception…I couldn’t help but feel like it was the perfect way to end the year! It may have been rainy, but it was perfect!
I hope you enjoy my favorites! This one makes me want to hold onto the Christmas spirit and keep my decorations up in my house for a few more weeks…it was so full of joy, love, and holiday cheer!
