Jessica was like a kid on Christmas morning. Excitement was in the air of  The Citizen Hotel. The room was busy with bridesmaids helping Jessica prepare for this amazing day, this day that Jessica gets to marry her very best friend Danny.  She was just glowing.  The wedding was beautiful- vintage details, amazing bouquets by Visual […]
