My Fair Maiden: Finale

Fiiiiiinally I'm getting around to giving you a look at the final product of my summer-long bridesmaid dress project. I made it for my dear friend Aly's wedding that was held on a beautiful fall day in Southern Indiana.

I managed to snag a few of the beautiful wedding photos, but first I took a couple boring pics at home for some close-ups of the dress. Ta-da!

 The open back was one of my favorite design features of the dress.

Shout out to the brilliant Lexi Arielle Photography who captured Aly and Will's big day perfectly. While I'm at it, Aly has a pretty sweet photography business herself, check her out at Alyson Naville Photography. The rolling hills of Southern Indiana, or "God's country" as Will likes to call it, was the perfect setting for the rustic chic wedding. 

Aly and her girls. We all got to choose our own dresses and they ended up going together perfectly! It was meant to be.

The bridal par-tay....ignore my cheesiness there.

These were all taken in Will's grandparents' back yard. Hello photo op!

So so happy that I got to be a part of this big day for two of my favorites.....and that my dress turned out to actually be wearable. I had my moments of doubt on that one, and I won't elaborate on the fact that I didn't actually complete it until two days before the wedding ;) But alas, it came through for me!

After the beautiful ceremony we danced the night away with friends and family. An all around perfect day.

XO,

Lo

Wedded Bliss

This post is extra dear to both Lo and myself. We celebrated the nuptials of the newly Mister and Misses. Morgan happens to be Lo's oldest and best friend. She had the honor of standing at Morgan's side as her maid of honor this weekend. Whereas Morgan and I go back to high school days kickin' it around the soccer field.

It was a day full of love, friendship, and wedded bliss.

Before I lay all the pictures on you let me explain the reception site as it is the cherry on top. Morgan being the strong willed woman that she is insisted upon a romantic yet rustic reception in a barn. Not something particularly difficult to come by in Southern Indiana. However, she had her eye on our historical hometown Round Barn. There is only one catch...it is typically filled with cows and has NEVER been the location for any sort of event.

Despite the skepticism, her family and friends pulled together, to herd the cattle out, scoop up the poo, and managed to make a barn smell pleasant. The outcome was magical. And so you enter into a romantic, rustic, Southern Indiana wonderland...

Find your table.

Grab a drink.

Take a seat.

 The closest thing I have to a little sister. Isn't she pretty?

 My best friend and partner in crime.

The red velvet was superb!

Lo's best friend.

 The happy couple.

My best friend.

Not amused...

 She is clearly as excited about the cake as I am.

I am so in love with this picture. The bride and groom sharing their first dance as the bride's parents cuddle up to watch. Precious.

 Gearing up for the speeches. Which by the way was the best collective job I have heard in a long time.

Father of the bride.

Lo knocking it out of the park.

 Best man

 One of the groomsman had the whole room bent over laughing.

 Sister of the bride.

 Sisters...they only look slightly related ;)

 Austin looking ghost-like in the back.

 Lo and Bee.

This pic is stolen from Facebook, but these gals are too sweet not to make the blog. Meet Amie and Zarah. They happen to be sandwiching the ever dapper brother of the bride, Austin.

 Also stolen, photo from the owners of the Round Barn. Magical right?

The little picture thief that I am stole this one too. But I thought we should end with a great photo of the bride and her maid of honor. They may live in two different parts of the country, but their friendship I am sure will withstand the test of time. 

Cheers to Morgan + Brandon!

With all of our love,
Lo + Bee
