Amanda & Brandon's Wedding

This week we travel to southern PA for the Wedding Ceremony and Reception of Amanda & Brandon at DuCar Farms in Chambersburg.

The weather has been crazy in Central PA this summer so far. If it is not raining, it is crazy hot and this week is no exception as temperatures are pushing the upper 90s.

The reception will be in the barn and the ceremony will take place at the gazebo in front of the main house. At 3:45pm the groom and groomsmen take their places and the bridal procession starts down the aisle. Amanda then makes her way around from the back of the house and down the stairs to the sounds of The Piano Guys covering "Perfect" from Ed Sheeran.

When the officiant presents the new Mr & Mrs. Gricks, the newlyweds head back up the aisle to the sounds of The Piano Guys covering "Somewhere Over The Rainbow". Once the bridal party has made it back up the aisle, guests are invited to enjoy cocktails from Catered Cocktails downstairs while Yasha takes the bridal party and family for pictures.

When the bridal party returns we do the grand entrance, blessing, and toasts and enjoy a wonderful meal from Mission BBQ. After the cake cutting Amanda & Brandon take the floor for their first dance as Husband & Wife in front of friends and family, to "I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)" by Sleep At Last.

Once the father/daughter and mother/son dances are completed the dance floor opens for the rest of the night until the Bride and Groom take to the floor one last time to dance to "Stand By Me" by Ben E. King and we send everyone home to Lone Bellow's "May You Be Well".

Congratulations again to Mr & Mrs Gricks!

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,
