Cultivate Retreat 2014 – Day Two

After all the fun of Day One, we enjoyed an elegant “Peaches and Cream” themed breakfast, which was as beautiful as it was delicious. The beautiful paper goods for this event were provided by 521 Designs and the flowers were designed by Kennedy Occasions and Simply Yours Weddings. We loved the beautiful linens from I Do Linens, too!CultivateRetreat2014_318CultivateRetreat2014_314
