Saturday afternoon, D had to go with the groom and the groomsmen to the Wolf Mountain Vineyards to take pictures and get ready for the wedding.
We tried to take a selfie in the hotel room before he left, but it proved a little difficult.
I hitched a ride with the best man’s wife closer to the ceremony time.
The setting was beautiful. There was even a light shower before the ceremony, which was special since rain holds a special meaning for the couple. #LetItRainAsWillis.
This being Georgia, it was quite warm and humid. The couple took this into consideration when they made their wedding programs into fans!
The cutest ring bearer (bride’s nephew).
The bridesmaid D was paired up with was the bride’s cousin (her parents are to the left). The parents mentioned that they thought D and their daughter looked like they could be brother and sister, which I thought was funny.
After the ceremony, there was a time for refreshments.
The father-daughter dance was a hit. I heard they use to enter father-daughter dance competitions when she was small! (She is now a dance instructor).
I can see why this place is popular for weddings.
Dinner was buffet-style and was delicious.
The cake was from Whole Foods and had a difficult time in the heat!
The groomsmen had a good time preparing the getaway car. Notice D’s addition of “Go Bears”.
Overall, it was a lovely wedding. I have only met the groom a few times, and I did not have any time to talk to the bride, but I am so happy for them and wish them the best!
