Amanda + Ben | Kentucky

The warm sun tickled her cheeks as she stepped from the porch. Mixing with a feint, cool breeze, the golden rays created the perfect environment. Weather every bride imagines to have. Wearing a necklace made from the ring of her great-grandmother, Amanda slowly made her way to Ben’s side. Her Ben. A man who had quite literally fought to win her heart.

I have been friends with Amanda for over three years now, and there are few people I feel I know as well as her.  Whether while we were working together at Triple R Ranch or exploring the cliffs of Wilmore, KY, here was never a time when I didn’t think she would have my back.  And now she has Ben, a perfect compliment that can match her stubborn personality wonderfully.

Good luck my friends.  I look forward to the next time you are both here in Chesapeake!

No joke, Rachel’s Rose Garden did an INCREDIBLE job on the bouquets!  Unbelievable even!

The necklace pictured on the left was taken out of Amanda’s great grandmother’s ring!  =]

The cake was AMAZING!  Sweets by Cindy did a fabulous job!  And the Willow Tree topper was a magnificent touch.

And the decorations!  I would recommend Goff Tents and Events to anyone!  Really… I would recommend all of these vendors.

Ben NEEDED his bowtie to be perfect for his wedding.  To much so after twenty minutes of fighting, we gave in and just looked it up again.

But it was totally worth it!

Ben’s #grovesyall socks.

One of the most beautiful best looks!

I think I might have my wedding at Estate at Creekside one day…  Ridiculously cool venue…  Just have to convince my family to drive ten hours.

You can never outdo the first dance between the bride and the father.

I think this the MOST playful smile I’ve ever seen on Ben’s face.

And what would a wedding be without a beautiful send off.

Your day was beautiful Amanda and Ben, and I know you two are having fun in Costa Rica.  Come back and visit us in Virginia soon!  Love you friends.
