Below is the start of the day from our very first wedding of the season. It's one of our all time favorites and we're doing multiple posts because there is just so, so much we want to share from Paige and John's wedding at Blackberry Farm. One of the reason's there is so much gorgeousness to share is because we had our dear friend and amazing photographer Ashley, of Ashley Hoskins Photography to come shoot with us! The three of us combined were in, as my mom would say, "hog-heaven"... and maybe had a little too much fun because we shot over 7,000 (!!!) images on this gorgeous day! And let me tell you, whew, that was a job to edit down (thankgoodness for Dan)... and even harder to decide what to blog so hence the multiple posts :) 

This first part from the actual wedding day is a combination of details, getting ready, and portraits leading up to the ceremony. The next will be the ceremony and candid moments around the ceremony and then... who knows, I haven't decided. This is so much fun!! Here ya go! Happy Monday!!! (My favorite day of the week! Seriously! :):)

Just look at these bridesmaids bouquets!! LOVE!! Paige and John had vendors from all over the country! The hair and makeup people came in from Chicago. The florist and musicians were from NYC, the cake and wedding planner from Raleigh. In the last post I'll include all of their names and links. Gosh the flowers were amazing!

Before the ceremony we spent some time shooting The Barn, the building where the reception was held. The light in there was just right for these beautful center pieces and place settings.
