We dreamed big dreams for making the farm the perfect wedding spot and worked hard to make it come true.

| The Ceremony Spot |
On the day of the wedding the weather was perfect and the Spot dressed up
 |
| pathway to the Spot marked with streamers and with a table set up for the wildflower seeds |
The tent pitched and tables set up all ready for the reception
The flowers all set in vases ready to be taken out to the tables - Megan did a great job making them!
Signs and balloons put out along the roads and also placed along the pathway to the Ceremony Spot and tent
 |
| The "Burma Shave" style sign was put out down the road right before the turn to our road...I don't have a picture of that unfortunately |
 |
| The heart marks the "Happily Ever After Begins Here" sign |
 |
| The chalkboard bistro sign - see what I used to make it in this post. |
Games were set out, the fire pit made ready, and lights strung up to light up the yard.
It all came together with lots of help from friends and family - we couldn't have done it without them.
The ceremony was beautiful and special.

Wishing them the best for their "Happily Ever After".

And me? I didn't cry...well, maybe teared up a tiny bit. But I was prepared - thanks to my sister Christine for the beautiful hankie she made me.

Thank you to everyone who shared their pictures. (I chose not to carry around a camera. I wanted to soak in every minute.)
Congratulations, Cecilia, to your beautiful daughter and awesome new son! May they enjoy a life together filled with joy, love and happiness! You did great - everything looks and sounds lovely! And I love the handmade hanky - I knew you would get one for "just in case" moments! Now you can just relax and revisit all of your wonderful memories of this very special union!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful, beautiful wedding. Your daughter looks gorgeous and I think her gown is simply stunning in its simplicity...and it fits her beautifully. I love all the special touches-they truly make it a one-of-kind wedding- No cookie cutter wedding for your family!
ReplyDeleteThat cake topper is adorable, too...must be a story behind it, I bet.

So beautiful Cecilia ... congratulations to Megan and Dylan ... wishing them many happy years ahead. Megan looks so beautiful ... love her dress and the paper flowers she made. Pretty handsome son-in-law too. Each year when the wild flowers bloom, you will relive this wonderful event. That was a great idea. Hope someone got a picture of you and Megan together. Fantastic wedding and so well planned.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Audrey Z.
Oh Cecilia...I love it! It was perfect and beautiful. I love all the handmade elements you all used. So much more unique and personal that way. Megan's dress is simple and gorgeous....it looks like something my daughter would pick out. She was absolutely stunning and Dylan was looking very dapper! I know you enjoyed every moment. I hope you were able to get some rest in the days that followed. Hugs and Happy Sunday! Vicky
