What is a wedding, really, other than a giant celebration—a party from beginning to end, from the engagement through the goodbye song at the end of the big night. In our annual Weddings issue, we’re including things that can help you put that party together. A florist with an eye for natural designs, hot air balloons in which to pop the question and tie the knot, the officiants that can bring two people together in matrimony, and transportation options beyond the quintessential stretch limo. Read them all this week!
