A lovely family legacy!
So thrilled to see all three of the Madden weddings featured in the latest issue of Southern Seasons Magazine! It was such an honor to get to work with this wonderful family for all three of their daughter's weddings over the past few years. And as always, Britt Wood Designs did an absolutely amazing job with the decor!
