Leslie & Mike's Wedding

Today we are heading to Laurel Rock Farms in Mifflintown for the Wedding Ceremony and Reception of Mike & Leslie. AJ actually went to school with Leslie so was honored when he was asked to DJ their wedding.

Upon arriving it was an unusually warm day for October. The ceremony was to have been outside but with blazing sunshine and temperatures already near 90 degrees, Leslie made the call to move the ceremony indoors.

At 2PM, Mike and the groomsmen took their places down front as the Bridal Party made their way down the aisle. Then all the guests rose as Leslie made her way down the aisle to an instrumental version of "Marry Me" by Train. After the officiant presented the new Mr & Mrs Carter they walked back up the aisle to an instrumental version of "Beautiful Day" by U2. After a short receiving line, the bride, groom, bridal party, and families were taken for pictures by Nikkie and Nick.

Upon returning the Bride and Groom had their grand entrance, followed by the blessing and dinner. Dinner was followed by the cake cutting and then the Bride and Groom took to the floor for their first dance as husband and wife to "Then" by Brad Paisley

After that we opened the dance floor for some partying, until the parent dances. This was a really cool concept that the bride and groom came up with. Instead of 2 separate dances, they did the Father/Daughter and Mother/Son dance together to "Stand By Me" by Ben E. King. This was followed by the Garter/Bouquet Toss and then more dancing, before we wrapped the night up with "Na Na Na Hey Hey Goodbye" by Steam.

Congratulations To Mr & Mrs Carter

Venue Spotlight April 28, 2019

Next week begins the full brunt of wedding season and each week we are going to spotlight the venues we visit. So if you are planning a wedding or event, keep your eyes on our blog page. On the off weekends this wedding season we will continue to spotlight some of the places we visited last year. With that said, this week let's head right down the road from us to Harmony Forge in Bellefonte, PA. We were here for 2 weddings last year. In August we helped Todd and Paige get married and in October we were here for Nicole & Christopher's Wedding. How about a little history! The Harmony Forge property dates back to the 1790s. It is the site of the Harmony Forge/Milesburg Iron Works that was built after the Revolutionary War. There is no definitive date to when the mansion was built, but can be dated to somewhere between 1796 and 1820. The iron works no longer exist but the mansion does, and the property has seen many different reincarnations over the year,
