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!
