Last Thursday, I had the pleasure of taking a very scenic trip out to Fort Lewis Lodge in Millboro, VA. It’s absolutely gorgeous out there and the weather couldn’t have been more beautiful for Melissa & John’s wedding!

These flowers were magnificent and so fitting for the wedding – I loved how Melissa’s bouquet and that her her maid of honor were the same color scheme, but also so unique and different from each other.
