A Little Country Wedding

Brittany and Bret tied the knot in a cozy country church which sits at the foot of The Peaks in Bedford, VA.  Their candlelit guests could be seen through the time-warbled glass windows of Peaks Presbyterian Church.  It was standing room only with a candlelit ambiance.  Piano music of old hymns drifted across the misty fields of cattle and between the many barns that color and dot the vista.  I relished the sound of the beautiful hymn, Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing which was played during the processional.  Be still my heart.  *This* is how it is done.  

Brittany and her family and friends prepared themselves at the Claytor Nature Center, Cloverlea Farm . That's an old farmhouse and property that is just 10 minutes away from the church.  

We had to take a bridesmaid's dress up a couple of sizes because she recently lost weight.  It's kinda handy to have a seamstress around ;) I delivered Brittany's dress to the venue, pressed the pashminas and bridesmaid's gowns, static treated the gowns, and sewed Brittany's zipper flap down. I also replaced a button that popped off of Brittany's gown as we zipped her up.
