The Amazing True Story of Leah and Brian’s Wedding

We had the privilege of going to a wedding this past weekend in Asheville. Now sometimes, I hate to say this, but at this stage in life sometimes you get a bit wedding’ed out, but we were super excited for this joyous event. For one thing, it was in Asheville, which is an awesome city, but most importantly, it was Leah and Brian’s wedding.
Now I have been a fan of Leah’s since we were in the same sorority at UVA. We lived together in a house with 15 other girls… and somehow we survived that and stayed friends! Leah and Nicole and I were The Hellionz in college and we had many a wild night.
Aaron and I have been fans of Brian since we got to meet him for the first time. Leah and Brian visited us in Boone. Brian walked a mile in the snow to go get us groceries and make us breakfast. We were totally won over.

So clearly Brian and Leah are awesome and they are an awesome couple.

That’s the happy couple at the rehearsal. They asked Aaron to take some pictures and he definitely did! He had a blast capturing some awesome moments, like this one of Leah looking demure and pensive…

You can see she’s really excited to be getting married.
I was also honored to be part of the wedding. So I kept busy rehearsing…

And eating…

The rehearsal was at this amazing restaurant called Posana in downtown Asheville. We all had a blast.

Here are Nicole and Ramey making a toast. And Leah and Brian enjoying themselves…

The nicest part was getting to hang out with friends. But, I particularly enjoyed the slide show Brian had made for the wedding with multiple awkward photos. After that we went back to the hotel and partied with some of the out of town guests.
Then, oh so quickly, it was the big day. We started with a bridal breakfast, then hair, then to the venue, which was Claxton Farm, was so beautiful.

Now I’m going to leave you in suspense for a while about the wedding. More photos to come!

Back at it….

Yeah.. it’s been a while once again… but.. let’s catch up…

The weather has turned around… and instead of crappy cold weather all of the time, we now get…

… crappy, rainy, wet nasty weather all of the time…

… and fog….

and tornados.

But… on some decent days, we’ve managed to get to the farmer’s market….

 

It was a good showing for the first farmer’s market.. not a lot of veggies quite yet… but we were glad to have our farmer’s market bread and meats again…

I really love this time of year in Boone… if the weather I decent. It’s that magical time of year where the student population has significantly decreased, but the Florida people haven’t gotten here yet…

Also… graduation was at the beginning of May!

 

So… our parents came down from Lexington.. and my sis came from Richmond… we had some good times… ate some good food…

There’s another update coming soon… the updates should be more regular in the coming months…
