{personal: trip to the peony farm: part 2}

Wow, remember this post way back when? Well, I've finally gotten time to finish the rest of the pictures from our trip! Enjoy more details of the farm and the people (and dogs) who make that place possible. And of course we had to stop at the strawberry field on the way home!

{wedding: Grace & Brian 6.19.10}

I have known Grace since my college years and I was so excited when her and Brian got engaged (in Africa!) because I knew it was going to be a fabulous wedding and for two people who are so perfect for each other to finally be joined in marriage! Grace of course was on point and on time as soon as I showed up at the house. This was one bride who was not going to be late. A chance of rain lingered over our heads all day as it normally does in the summer but God graciously held it back. I loved the simplicity of this wedding. It was just enough detail to make it personal and sweet. The flowers and decor was by Salt Harbor Designs, which never ceases to impress. The catering was put on by a friend of the family and was my first mini burger at a wedding. I loved it! The day just flowed seamlessly together, with the ceremony held at the Kenan Chapel in Landfall and then everyone headed to the reception to Brian's parent's house in Landfall. Talk about an amazing backyard! I couldn't get over the architecture and landscaping. The earlier rain of the day made everything just burst with color! I'm so happy to see two great people declare their love for each other!
