Oakhaven Farm
Murfreesboro, TN
Rehearsal Dinner
My sister, Craig, and I got to TN on Thursday afternoon and got to work! We did a few things on Thursday, but Friday we hit the ground running with last minute errands for the weekend. We decorated for the rehearsal dinner which was held in the loft of the barn. It was a neat location and more special because Janell & Larry worked so hard fixing up the barn and his families farm for their special day!
Wedding Day Preparation
Saturday was spent getting all prettied up for the big day. Don't we look like sisters? I had the privilege of being her Matron of Honor. It's funny how our roles were defined and I became the calming force for her that day. She was so excited yet jittery and we prayed for God to give her peace in this moment.
As we got ready, I busted out the chalk and made sure all the signs were wedding ready! Never a dull moment!
Wedding Ceremony
The wedding was beautiful! The sun was out yet there was a cool breeze because of the rain that fell on Friday. It really felt like God had his hand placed on this location and was breathing blessings into it.
Reception
We did have to endure quite a little rain storm after the ceremony. But all was well and it cleared out pretty quickly. The boys left after dinner with my parents and we stayed until the bride and groom left around 11:00pm.
Janell,
Thank you for asking me to stand by you on your big day. I honestly haven't seen you this happy and that makes me smile. I pray for you and Larry. I pray that you will cherish each other, put each other first behind God, work through the good and the bad, be each other's best friends, and be blessed with a strong marriage.
Can't wait to see you in October!
