August 8, 2015 marks the day that Daniel Gibson Bellerose and Rachel Hope Brunea vowed to love and cherish one another for the entirety of eternity. Sunflowers swayed gently in the mountain breeze as the promise was made and sealed with a kiss. There was much rejoicing. Fooding, dancing, and badmintoning then commenced; the frantic joys of such activities seen in gleaming fruit-and-cheese heaped plates, bare-footed-hand-held prancing, and some particularly well-aimed birdy driving. Along with this came the mingling of friends and meeting of sisters, mothers, fathers, and brothers so many of us had heard so much about. A highlight of my experience was swinging on a swing set with a certain absolutely delightful freckled redhead and watching the couples dance in their bumbly, blissful fashion:)

On June 13th, 2015 I had the privilege of witnessing the union of Eric Davis and, my dear aunt, Krista Drouin. Gallery of the special day and other wedding shenanigans below.
This weekend I attended my first wedding of the season- the union of Chase Ross and Bri Crist on May 16th, 2015. The ceremony took place in the backyard of the Crist's at the very spot were Chase proposed last Easter. The reception was held at the Aviary in Miller Park (Lynchburg, VA). With it's fresh and antique color contrasts, an honest do-it-yourself feel, and a tangible, just-out-of-college elation; this rustic and sophisticated wedding was a delight to witness and participate in.
Here are a few snapshots of the day: |
