Natalie and Mark's photographer suggested that they indulge in a small picnic after the ceremony and before their reception - and it looks like such a BRILLIANT idea that I'm sharing it here for you to steal.

Check it out. Pack a lil cooler with some snacks - you know you and your peeps are gonna be hungry by then - and grab an adorable blanket or two and a festive basket. Then lounge around for some post-ceremony wedding party photos that showcase you and your closest people being super stylish and super relaxed. What a great way to unwind a bit before hitting up a high-energy reception, am I right?
