An Elegant Evening Picnic

This warm August weather is just perfect for an elegant evening picnic wedding don’t you think?  A color palette of teal, deep pink, and red, lanterns and lights strung from the trees, classic wood tables, blankets and pillows for lounging and of course, dinner under the stars.
