Jesse & Ashley's Wedding

Jesse, Ashley, The Bridal Party, & Guests partying!

Today we are heading right down the road to Mingoville at the Nittany Country Club, for the wedding of Ashley And Jesse. Jesse contacted us after finding us on Google, and after speaking with him through a few emails we were able to strike a deal. 

During our bridal consult I learned that Jesse was a musician and that the song they had chosen for their first dance was a song that he has written for Ashley, performed by him, and recorded by him back when they were in college. 

Jesse's mother had passed when he was younger, so his step mother (which day of wedding we found out was our bank teller) stepped in to dance with him to a song from James Taylor that his mother would sing to him when he was younger. A touching moment for all those involved. 

During the dollar dance the bride and groom decided to make it a competition to see who can raise more money. Ashley won this competition but not by much. After a lot of dancing we wrapped things up with a special song requested by the Bride and Groom, James Taylor's "How Sweet It Is To Be Loved By You".

Congratulations one again the newlyweds Mr & Mrs. Hall.

Louise & Evan's Wedding

This week we are headed to Laurel Mountain Winery in Falls Creek, PA, for the wedding of Louise and Evan. This couple has actually been married since December of 2016, but had issues with getting friends and family together for the reception until now. We were set up inside a pavilion that overlooked the vines for the winery. The cocktail hour music was provided by a local artist who played guitar and sang for the cocktail hour. This was a laid back event so the bride and groom mingled during the cocktail hour. Towards the end of the cocktail hour we lined up the bridal party and did a grand entrance and then ate dinner which was provided by some of the guests, who brought their own recipes. After dinner Louise and Evan took to the dance floor for their first dance as husband and wife...Something that they had waited over a year to do. For the first time friends and family watched them dance to Ed Sheeran and Beyonce's "Perfect". We then partied later into the ...

Leslie & Mike's Wedding

All photos used in this post are courtesy of NixPix Photography 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...
