Fabulous Wedding for Jessica and Rick at The Umstead!

(Yikes, I am so behind on my blogging. This is the last wedding for the weekend before last and I have seven more weddings to blog from this past weekend! October is such a popular wedding month.) The photo above was taken before Jessica and Rick's wonderful wedding at The Umstead on October 2, 2010. Notice the pink things hanging from the chairs...they are actually very nice wedding programs and this was a unique way of giving them to the guests. They were made by Paperwhites.

 Marty scoped out the reception area before the wedding ceremony started and got these photos of the lovely floral decorations by A Watered Garden.

The color scheme was hot pink and you can see it reflected everywhere. Lovely cake by Sweet Memories.

 

Our string trio was provided by Mary Greiner, owner of Save the Date Music, formerly known as Musicians Booking Agency. 

And now we are ready to start the procession. Rick is escorting in his mother and grandmother then will come back and join me to process in. 

The groomsmen are in place and now the bridesmaids enter. What pretty dresses. Pink is such a happy color for a wedding. Standing with the girls is Ami Wheeler with The Umstead who is our director. 

Here comes our beautiful bride and her proud father! 

 

All the guests are standing for her entrance. 

This is a view from the terrace above. You can see Kevin Milz, our photographer, getting his shots. What a lovely wedding party and what a gorgeous setting for a wedding in the garden at The Umstead.

 

Jessica and Rick, what a great wedding you planned and made happen. I loved working with you to write your special ceremony with your story in it. Congratulations! Have a wonderful honeymoon!
