Instagram post 18065459491198955 This past January I had the great pleasure of traveling to the Dolomites with @chicweddingsinitaly for an unforgettable winter wonder experience in the hillsides of Cortina. On Monday I'll be sharing  a portion the snowy shoot on the blog (stay tuned!). In the meantime, here's a sneak peek of the heart-fluttering and flowering doorway at our location. Everything about this arch of dried and cozy flora sings to my heart. @ouifleurs nailed it and I just love her aesthetic. 🌾🍂 Can’t wait to share more soon!
