“In the opinion of the world, marriage ends all, as it does in a comedy. The truth is precisely the opposite: it begins all.” (Anne Sophie Swetchine)

It was a balmy 110 degrees and the sun didn’t let up all day, making the dry grass prickly and the air thick. And though we ended up with most of the photos inside the church, Kyle and Allison were kind enough to step outside with me for just a bit.

I absolutely adored Allison’s gown (from David’s Bridal); the one-shouldered top with that gorgeous ruffle just did me in! All of the florals were done by Bobbie of Cherry Blossom Boutique and, as per usual, she did an amazing job! I loved the pops of blue jewels!

I love, love, lurve the sound of a harp. I could’ve just sat and listened to this all day long; it was magical.

Kyle had arranged to drive this car from the ceremony to the reception. The two problems were that it 1) didn’t have air conditioning and 2) on the way to the reception, kept stalling. (They made it though!)

To all your new beginnings together, may you both be so blessed!! Congratulations, Kyle & Allison!!
