Congratulations Reagan & Rob!!

Back to Belhurst again ~ a drive that I always look forward to ... there's nothing like a Wedding at a historical castle!!

:)

First, I stopped at a hotel nearby where the guys were getting ready ... flasks in hand! They were a trip and having a great time hanging out before the ceremony.

Then I headed over to the castle and found Reagan and her bridesmaids in a room I had never been in before...I thought I knew the whole place, but there's a secret sort of section that I didn't know was there...as I opened the door, there she was all ready to go ... gorgeous!

The best part is shortly after I arrived, her father knocked on the door...it was going to be his first time seeing her in her gown. We opened the door, he stood in the doorway, stared at her and his first words after seeing her were "Holy S%&# !" LOL I couldn't believe it ! We all started laughing and it set the stage for an incredibly unique and happy celebration!

:)

After getting a bunch of getting ready shots, and some formals of the bridesmaids, I headed down to the ceremony area to see the guests coming in, and to congratulate Rob before he made his way out to the lawn

Here comes the bride! See? They're a trip ... the whole family had such amazing senses of humor ...someone in the crowd yelled something out making them both break out in a laugh on their way down the aisle. Priceless.

I love the setting for Weddings at Bellhurst. The ceremony overlooks the lake, and from this view, the original castle is the backdrop. It's such a peaceful and intimate setting. The ceremony was beautiful; heartfelt ... and the rain was doing its' best to hold off through the ceremony for us ~ so lucky! It was perfect.

Congratulations Mr. & Mrs. Weinhart!!

These kids were adorable ... and so friendly! One of the little boys kept running up to me at the reception and hugging me ! SO cute!

ahhhh... cocktail time!



We experienced just a few sprinkles, but luckily we could take shelter under a huge tree and we didn't even have to think about it...and it passed shortly after too!

After getting some formals, I headed inside to get the reception details ...mmm Cheesy Eddies cheese cakes!!!

Their first dance was so sweet...




One of the tables started making beer can sculptures !

Time to cut the cake!!!

Lots of dancing and good times to be had all night long ... so many amazing friendships, and family bonds ... I was honored to be a part of this very special celebration.

Congratulations Reagan and Rob!
