Kendra & Matt's Wedding

Kendra & Matt dancing on the wedding cloud

Today we are traveling to Jersey Shore for the wedding of Kendra & Matt. We will be inside the Rozenburg Barn for the reception and outside the front of the main house for the ceremony. 

As we are setting up we are hoping that the weather holds out for an outdoor ceremony as we are set up for that already. Looking at hourly forecasts we decide to move up the start time of the ceremony by almost 20 minutes. Trying to stay ahead of the rain. 

At 2:10 Kendra gets out of a waiting car to walk down the aisle to meet with a waiting Matt all to the music of Ellie Goulding's "How Long Will I Love You". Things have been sped up because of the impending rain situation, so the ceremony has been shortened a bit. 

The officiant presents the new couple Mr And Mrs Harrison, and the bride and groom walk up the aisle to "Kiss Me" by Sixpence None The Richer. Daniel James takes the bridal party and family for the pictures before it starts to rain, while everyone else moves to this beautiful old tobacco barn for the reception and drinks with Catherine from Drinks By Design. 

Once dinner is over the bride and groom take to the dance floor for their first dance as husband and wife on The Wedding Cloud to "White Lightening" by The Cadallic Three. When meeting with Kendra during our bridal consult I asked her why this song, because admittedly I had never heard it. She explained that when she met Matt she was so head over heels in love with him that it was like white lightening and the song seemed fitting. 

While playing the Mr & Mrs Game we learned that Kendra would be more likely to end up in jail, but also raised more money during the dollar dance. At the end of the night they danced to "Beautiful Crazy" by Luke Combs, and we closed the night with "Closing Time" by Semisonic.

On a side note: the rain we were racing, never came!

Congratulations once again Mr & Mrs Harrison.

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...
