8-9-10…Happy Wedding day John & Liz! It’s a whimsical feeling, as your feet carry you around the grounds of McMenamins Edgefield. So many details to take in and trying to keep your “GPS” working, so you make it back to the place you’ve just come from. Making our way down the never ending hallways, we feel the energy surrounding our bride and groom. Many people come together to celebrate the union of a couple and you can tell how loved John and Liz are this day. The jokes, the laughter and anticipation mount as the clock draws on to their evening wedding ceremony.
The girls are curling hair, applying makeup and drinking chilled champagne. Liz looks… stunning as she is trying to keep it all together, as questions are being asked and cell phones are ringing. It can be crazy, being a bride! Liz pulled it off impeccably well. The guys…well they will be guys! Helping each other with suspenders, ties, and occasional sips from a flask…WHAT!? Jon is being his amazing self, making last minute arrangements and trying to calm his nerves, as everyone is looking for the backpack!? (I know I saw it on the lawn) and doing it in style, with his amazing fedora. What a handsome man!
The reception was so earthy and natural. The chosen wedding colors blues, greens, brown made for one of the most beautiful bouquets. The wooden floors saw A LOT of dancing and within the four walls, a million memories were made. From the initials that hung so beautifully on the front doors, to the basket of flip flops on the dance floor, the handmade beer (yes, Jon and Liz made beer for their guests!) It was an unforgettable wedding.
Thank you for letting us share, such an incredible part of your lives. You are such a fun loving couple. You know how to have a good time and just let loose. We wish you the best in your life together, and know for a fact you’ll have fun celebrating YOUR journey.
