wow. not sure where to begin on this wedding. rachel, dan, and and i hit it off from the start. they were so much fun to work with throughout the planning process, the wedding day…and through it all we became friends too! {even though they are gator fans.. and you all know i am a diehard gamecock!} i was sad the day after their wedding, maybe even already having a little withdrawal. i never dreamed that the day after their wedding they would call and see if ian and i could go and have drinks with them in downtown asheville. i mean really…for them to take the time to share with us meant so, so much to me. we sat and talked for hours over some good vino. that is why i love what i do. the people you meet, the stories you hear, and the incredible people who have such a love for each other and it shows in every. single. way.
dan and me at the end of the wedding 😉
there are so many pics i want to post from this wedding…it was gorgeous with so many details that it just might mean several posts! to start…check out this couple…
i might be in love with her bridal jewelry. and the eyelashes.
a biltmore house backdrop...stunning
the first dance started of classic...
and just to prove what a fun couple…they did the unexpected first dance. i was privy to all the details…no one else knew. they are so fun and such great dancers, they definitely pulled this one off perfectly, and the guests loved it!!
and then it got super fun!
they even toasted their guests with a shot to the tune of "its 5 o'clock somewhere"
....and the dancing continued throughout the wedding! their whole crowd definitely knew how to shake it 😉
and then the send off!
stay tuned for the all the amazing details…you will not want to miss them! and rachel and dan, i hope to see you in asheville for your first anniversary. and just for the record, call me if you need anything!
thank you to michael oppenheim for all the wonderful pics!
