This, my friends, is how we kick off March around here. A little mental trip to Venice, Italy, following along with the talented Eric Kelley and this gorgeous couple as they document a sweet love story along the canals and at Belmond Hotel Ciprian. It’s pretty much the most romantic elopement story ever, with details designed by Pamela Barefoot Events + Design.

Oh, and did we mention the intimate reception in the country? Would make such a beautiful way to celebrate with family afterward.
