(Hint: The below image is the backdrop of said scene)Cantigny-Gardens-Engagement-Photos-Chicago-Rebecca-Marie-Photography-Design_0021Cantigny-Gardens-Engagement-Photos-Chicago-Rebecca-Marie-Photography-Design_0022Cantigny-Gardens-Engagement-Photos-Chicago-Rebecca-Marie-Photography-Design_0020Let's talk about how absolutely perfect the details of Emily & Devin's outfits were!  From the pattern of Emily's skirt, to complimentary textures of her multiple bracelets, even their belts were coordinated together. Not to mention, Devin rocked some fantastic shoes.  Emily also paired the gold of one of her bracelets with fantastic gold earrings that flowed perfectly in the breeze.  Staying in the same color scheme while mixing up textures, made these two look even more adorable together without looking like twins.  If you are looking for inspiration on how to tie together your outfit with details, bookmark these two!Cantigny-Gardens-Engagement-Photos-Chicago-Rebecca-Marie-Photography-Design_0023Cantigny-Gardens-Engagement-Photos-Chicago-Rebecca-Marie-Photography-Design_0009Cantigny-Gardens-Engagement-Photos-Chicago-Rebecca-Marie-Photography-Design_0013Cantigny-Gardens-Engagement-Photos-Chicago-Rebecca-Marie-Photography-Design_0012Cantigny-Gardens-Engagement-Photos-Chicago-Rebecca-Marie-Photography-Design_0019Cantigny-Gardens-Engagement-Photos-Chicago-Rebecca-Marie-Photography-Design_0017Cantigny-Gardens-Engagement-Photos-Chicago-Rebecca-Marie-Photography-Design_0005Love!Cantigny-Gardens-Engagement-Photos-Chicago-Rebecca-Marie-Photography-Design_0001Huge props to Nick for one of our favorite images.Cantigny-Gardens-Engagement-Photos-Chicago-Rebecca-Marie-Photography-Design_0011Cantigny-Gardens-Engagement-Photos-Chicago-Rebecca-Marie-Photography-Design_0010Cantigny-Gardens-Engagement-Photos-Chicago-Rebecca-Marie-Photography-Design_0008Cantigny-Gardens-Engagement-Photos-Chicago-Rebecca-Marie-Photography-Design_0002Cantigny-Gardens-Engagement-Photos-Chicago-Rebecca-Marie-Photography-Design_0014As the sun continued to set the light complimented the comfortable beauty between Emily & Devin more and more...Cantigny-Gardens-Engagement-Photos-Chicago-Rebecca-Marie-Photography-Design_0016Cantigny-Gardens-Engagement-Photos-Chicago-Rebecca-Marie-Photography-Design_0018Cantigny-Gardens-Engagement-Photos-Chicago-Rebecca-Marie-Photography-Design_0024p.s.
