Jenna Nelson | August 23, 2016In an effort to showcase the possibilities and historic beauty of the John H. Barker Mansion in Michigan City, Indiana, a team of vendors put their heads together to design a style shoot that could inspire brides to have a realistic, intimate wedding there.

Jenna Nelson | July 8, 2016Puppies, patriotism and prettiness pretty much sum up today's Instagram faves! We started off the list with a puppy photo because we realized that this is not a three-day weekend (insert sad emoji with tears), so we did what we could to compensate.
