Last weekend we traveled to Asheville, NC for the wedding of Fawn and Patrick. The wedding and reception were being held at the beautiful Richmond Hill Inn just outside of Asheville. Fawn and Patrick traveled from Texas back to Asheville so that they could be married near family and friends.

The small, intimate wedding ceremony was held in the beautiful garden courtyard at the inn. It was a gorgeous day with bright blue autumn skies and cool temperatures, a welcome departure from the scorching heat of summer! During the ceremony, Fawn and Patrick each released a white dove to commemorate their love and marriage. Once the two doves took flight, a flock of doves were released, one for each person at the ceremony! Following the ceremony were hor d'oeuvres on the trellised patio, dinner in the inn, and dancing with lots of fun and laughter. As the celebration wound down, Fawn and Patrick prepared to make their grand exit through a sea of bubbles created by family and friends!

Fawn and Patrick, we really enjoyed being part of your celebration of marriage! Below are a few images from your day that we really liked, so we thought we would give you a little preview to hold you over!










The dads, strong of character, and full of thought on this special day!

The gorgeous cake sits upon a cake stand carved by the Bride's father with their initials and wedding date in the hearts - a very special touch!

This weekend was high school homecoming for our oldest son Eric. With the football game on Friday night and the homecoming dance on Saturday night, the weekend was full of scheduled activities. Saturday afternoon, the teenagers had planned a meeting for pictures at the gazebo, followed by dinner at Macaroni Grill, and then off to the dance. Eric was escorting his friend Dena for the dance, and boy were they dressed for the part! With flowers and smiles they were off for an evening of fun! Here are a few pictures as they prepared to begin their jam packed evening of homecoming fun!
