Love, Family, Cabins, and Waterfalls :: Massachusetts
It’s the summer and I think it’s fitting to catch up on all of my blog posting. After all, I have stuff from last year I haven’t posted yet! Eeek! Here’s a few of my favorite photos from my trip to Massachusetts. My family and I went to several waterfalls in the surrounding area, saw my cousin’s beautiful wedding, and overall, just had a fantastic time exploring.
BY THE WAY, we stayed at the Woolman Hill Quaker Retreat Center (where the wedding was). It is a very peaceful and gorgeous place to vacation to and have events at. They have so many cute cabins to stay in.
Ben and Lindsay’s Wedding :: Raleigh, North Carolina
Ben and Lindsay’s wedding rocked! It was located at the beautiful Brier Creek Country Club in Raleigh, North Carolina. The entire day was filled with love, laughter, and all around good times. I was fortunate, too, to have a super awesome chica and photographer, Autumn, from Autumn Harrison Photography help photograph the wedding with me.
Some of the highlights of the wedding (in my opinion of course)- the simplicity of an “I love you” text before the ceremony between Ben and Lindsay, the Groom’s brother forgetting to come back and usher their mom during ceremony closing (oops…it happens), the fantastic cake smashing into each others faces, the sweet toasts, the very purposeful geometrical calculations and chatter between Ben and Lindsay during the garter toss, the crowd singing on top of their lungs to “Don’t Stop Believin'” by Journey, a nephew running around with a disposable camera taking many pictures (future photographer!!!), a pool table groom’s cake, and of course the cow bell playing by Ben and Lindsay when they went up on stage with the band at the end of the reception. All around, it was a fun night!
Ben and Lindsay- thank you so much for having me there for your wedding day! I wish you both all the happiness in the world =)
