Weddings

This summer Miguel and I went to two of Miguel's high school friends' weddings. The second one was this past weekend. We had a great time but we are happy to be back! After driving back and forth all summer we are happy to be able to just chill in Savannah for a while without having to travel.

The first wedding was Miguel's friend, Jeff and his fiance, Jesslyn. This wedding was so beautiful! It was in the north Georgia mountains and the views created a picturesque backdrop for a wedding. We also especially enjoyed being able to see friends we hadn't seen in a very long time. Here are a few pictures from Jeff and Jesslyn's special day:

This was the setting

I loved Jesslyn's dress!

The cakes were really neat! A bear for the grooms cake and really tasty cupcakes for the bride's cake. It was really clever too, because they had little boxes that the guests could box up the cupcakes to take home with you!

The bride's shoes! Keds that her mom dressed up! So cute!

The second wedding was a friend from high school as well as a Georgia Tech track friend of Miguel's, Veronica. Veronica got married in downtown Atlanta at the Basilica of the Sacred Heart of Jesus Christ off of Peachtree Street. The reception was at the Trolley Barn in Inman Park. Such a neat place for a reception! One of my favorite things about this wedding was the bells at the church ringing after the wedding! I also thought it was really sweet when Veronica teared up over her vows. Very sweet couple and very pretty bride! Here are pictures from this wedding... I didn't have a good camera with me and the majority of my pictures came out super blurry...

The bar at the reception for cocktail hour.... oh they had great spicy grits for hor d'ourves!

Instead of having one wedding cake Veronica and Michael had multiple cakes! So yummy and pretty!

At the cocktail hour they had fans as favors. It was toasty outside so I was thankful for these!

We had a great time at each wedding! Congrats to the couples and multiple blessings during their marriages!
