It's natural for businesses to spend the last few weeks of the year reflecting on what has made the year memorable. Every Rosetree couple is incredibly unique and each one of their weddings holds a special place in our heart. Their love inspires us, motivates us, and brings us endless joy. Our lives are more rewarding and fulfilled because of this amazing work (if you could call it that). Our gratitude for everyone that crossed our paths in this journey is endless.  It seems that there are never quite enough "thank you's" to be said to the couples that allow us to be part of their love story, and the vendors that help us make these wedding day visions a reality. So with the closing of 2016, it only seemed right for us to share with you a few images that embody the year- the best of the best from this remarkable year. We suppose you could call them our favorites of 2016. It took hours of browsing through our fantastic portfolio of weddings and events to decide what to share (side note: we have a few that we can't share with you just yet because we have something extra special planned for them). But we think we finally did it.

We can't wait to see what this year holds in store for us- 2017 has a lot to live up to (we have a feeling it's up to the challenge)!

Enjoy!
