Almost two months have passed and our wedding day is still a blur. I remember it was cold. But thumbing through our wedding pictures for the last week sure has made the day seem more real, more like it actually happened. And I'm so excited to share these photos with you.
Nothing went tragically wrong with our wedding. No one dropped the cake. Everyone showed up. It wasn't supposed to rain and it didn't. But we still left feeling worn out and thankful that it was our one and only wedding.
Our rehearsal dinner, ceremony and reception were at J&D Farms, about 1 hour northeast of our hometown. We were married in the orchard that overlooks wide open acres of land and we celebrated with dinner and drinks in the gorgeous pole barn. The owners of the farm were laid-back and all around fantastic. They definitely made us feel at ease and even tolerated some of our off-the-wall requests (Can we put 16 300lb. church pews in your orchard?) We were so lucky with all of the vendors we chose -- they all made us feel so comfortable and taken care of, I wouldn't change a single one of them.
