Fashion: Sail Away With Me
Words by Courtney KellarPhotos courtesy of Jen Huang Photography A nautical wedding theme is nothing new, but with its renewed popularity, we partnered with some fabulous vendors and creative minds to put a modern spin on this American classic. Blues and whites combine with pops of fuchsia and shades of gold to make this one head-turning event. The stunning Balboa Bay Resort in Newport Beach, California set the scene for our seaside destination wedding inspiration.
