Katherine & Jason: Sunshine on a cloudy day

August 19, 2011 |


It was a beautiful summer day at Oakhurst Farm in West Point, GA when Katherine and Jason tied the knot.  What a lovely venue, with big open fields, gorgeous flowers, a beautiful pond, and even cows!  Even though the rain threatened, we had such a gorgeous day filled with love and family!  The pending storms actually brought a lovely cool breeze that made this outdoor July wedding so lovely.   My wedding wish to Katherine and Jason on their wedding day comes from one of my favorite hymns “The clouds you so much dread Are big with mercy and shall break, With blessings on your head”  So the big beautiful clouds are one of my favorite weddings guests!  On to the photos! bloglogo02bloglogo112Katherine’s dress was so cool – 2 dresses in one!  It was long, with a gorgeous train for the ceremony, and then the bottom came off for the reception….and she had the perfect shoes to accent this dress… can’t wait to show you!   bloglogo211Katherine’s mom helped her into her gown.bloglogo311Chandelier earrings and the rings.  Hot pink shoes & matching garter..  the perfect pop of color!bloglogo410Beautiful bridebloglogo510

I am in love with Katherine’s natural hair, accented perfectly with a flower… its is sooo beautiful!

Isn’t he dapper?  I really want this three piece suit for my hubby.  Jason got his from StudioSuits.com and his tie from TheTieBar.com.

STUNNING!

bloglogo401bloglogo411bloglogo421Katherine and Jason had a bagpiper for the ceremony.  I also loved the cute program fans with the adorable hot pink touches!  My fav personal touch is that Katherine’s two brothers were both involved.  Her brother, Sam, is a minister and officiated the wedding and her brother, Dan, did a special scripture reading.  bloglogo431bloglogo441Katherine’s daddy walked her down the aisle.bloglogo451Look at the excitement on Jason’s face as he catches his first glimpse of his bride.bloglogo461bloglogo471bloglogo481bloglogo491bloglogo501bloglogo511bloglogo521bloglogo531bloglogo541The bagpiper led the new Mr. and Mrs. Jason Elliston back down the aisle as husband and wife!bloglogo551bloglogo561Their first quiet moments as husband and wife.bloglogo571
