Rebecca and David were such sweethearts! Music was the theme, and we absolutely loved the flowers that Rebecca made! It was a beautiful day after rain threatened, and their ceremonies were simply lovely. We had a wonderful time coordinating the Christian and Jewish ceremonies, and their reception was so full of love and laughter and wonderful speeches. We wish the newlyweds all the happiness in the world!

It's time. It's time to talk about our gorgeous Lauren's gorgeous wedding back in June! We absolutely adore these two, and were so happy to be a part of their day. Lauren planned her day so well, and made it so easy for us to execute. The Lynchburg Lemonade station, the Ray Bans, the delicious BBQ, giant Jenga, bags -- all of Lauren't careful planning and little details came together to make the best "backyard bbq" wedding ever. 

And check out that handsome husband of hers! Eric is hilarious, genuine, and one of the best guys around. Truly someone Lauren deserves, and the bar is very high! We love you two, and wish you all the best in your life together!

Lauren's friend, Jessica Philippo of One July Photography, couldn't help but snap these beautiful photos. BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE! Ingrid Bonne Photography was also there, so keep an eye out for her snaps later on the blog!

They met on the math team! We loved the fact that these two science and math aficionados got married at the MSI. It was an excellent setting for a wedding, and the exhibits gave their day a unique twist! Guests had a blast, and so did they! Their ceremony was so sweet, they were just so much in love, and we had so much fun with them. What an adorable couple, and we wish them a long and happy life together!
