Elegant Italy Wedding by Jose Villa::

I love the simplicity of this wedding in Italy.  It is the perfect combination of rustic and elegant - ideal for an outdoor Italian affair.  Also ideal that Jose Villa was the one to capture this gorgeous day - his photographs are stunning.

Lavender Details ::

I love lavender for an outdoor, french inspired wedding.  It is so soft and feminine and
adds the perfect touch of color to an otherwise white and green color palette.
