Wedding on the Farm


Ashley and Jim hired me to be their day of coordinator.

Their wedding was this past Saturday, April 13 on a beautiful horse farm at Serra Valley Farm in Mt. Airy, Maryland.  You could not have asked for a more beautiful day for an outdoor ceremony.  Their wedding was small and intimate with the closest of their family and friends in attendance. 

Ashley is very organized and a great DIYer.  She, along with help from family and friends, either made or put together all the little details that made their wedding their own.  Ashley also is a baker and made her own wedding cake and individual cups of ice cream in a variety of flavors to serve with the cake.  This bride is talented!  The cake was Tiramisu, celebrating her new husband’s Italian heritage.  They even had wine from a distant family relative’s vineyard in Italy.  All the little details made this wedding unique and their own. 













For the ceremony, Ashley had arranged flowers in a variety of Mason jars and hung them on the end of the chairs along with lace-wrapped sprinkles (because they love ice cream) for guests to sprinkle them as they walked back up the aisle.  After the ceremony, I hung the flower-filled Mason jars in the Barn on horseshoe hooks for the reception.
The reception food was tapas served family style by Isabella’s Tavern & Tapas Bar.  From the comments I heard, the guests really enjoyed all six courses. 

There was dancing and toasts and at the end of the reception, guests were invited to After Hours S’mores by the fire.  A great ending to a wonderful day and evening.

Congratulations,
Ashley and Jim!
