mountain wedding: amy + joe
A perfectly delightful summer wedding in the mountains of Western North Carolina, one of my favorite places on earth. Amy and Joe's dog, Sydney, was part of the celebration, and the bride's dressing room was a tiny cabin behind the reception barn. The original
{ Claxton Farm } barn burned down a few years ago, but in its place is a wonderfully rustic space with modern amenities. I loved the high ceilings, and the views from the open field are unrivaled. As always I was lucky enough to have
{ Traci Arney } as my co-shooter. Enjoy!
Dress:
{ Romona Keveza }
Ceremony and Reception Location:
{ Claxton Farm }, Asheville, NC

Her bouquet is wrapped in a piece of fabric that belonged to her grandmother, an avid sewer who was always working on a project.

Swizzle sticks were found on

One of my favorite "guest book" ideas ever: ink pads for the guests to turn their thumbprints into leaves on the couple's wedding-day tree. Also, a great idea for escort card display -- vintage window shutters.

Amy and Joe included the Limelight for their guests -- Amy is wearing fake chest hair, and I must say it becomes her, no?
