A few weekends ago we visited Galena, Illinois to celebrate our friend's wedding festivities (Ben + Angie = #Bangie2013) and hit a few tourist spots in between. A few hours from Chicago, Galena is a sweet little town that surprisingly reminds me of Tennessee (Jonesborough, to be exact) and I absolutely loved it. Quiet, quaint and relaxing; truly a breath of fresh air. The wedding was beautiful, complete with a spectacular view of the Mississippi River and it was an adventure we won't soon forget.

What an incredible escape–and a gorgeous weekend!
