I love the amazing work of Matt and Chatti from Savady Photography, and while browsing through their blog I came across Aubrey and Colby’s engagement session. They’re such a cute couple! I love their choice of meaningful locations and how they incorporated things that they love: horses and planes. Stanley Lake in Broomfield, Colorado was their [...]
Diamond Try-Ons? There’s An App For That

It was recently announced that Time, Inc. will no longer publish InStyle Weddings after the Dec. 25, 2009 issue of the popular bridal magazine.
