My mother passed away several years ago, and keeping her traditions alive is important to our family.
I also love the pictures Ashley was able to capture of us in the park- our friends look like themselves, and we had so much fun with zero stress. I think everyone was relived to have their only responsibility be enjoying themselves, and it really kept the focus on celebrating our marriage in the presence of loved ones.
We invited our close friends to join us early in the day for getting-ready festivities (golf for the boys, mimosas and catching up for the girls). When we agreed to just have my sister Tory and his friend Greg stand up with us, I felt as if a huge weight had been lifted. I was intimidated and stressed by the idea of coordinating a large wedding party my husband has three brothers and many close friends, and I have a wonderful group of girlfriends from school scattered around the country. When Sydney's mom used to write her letters she finished them by signing with the word "always", so Tory had her handwriting printed in gold and attached to a gold chain anklet as a reminder of her love.įrom the Bride: Don't be afraid to do things your own way. One of my favorite pieces of the day was a bracelet that Tory, my bride's sister, gifted to Sydney. Sydney's late mother was represented in so many gentle ways, from the subtle tulips (her favorite flower) to the heirloom jewelry.

We have even more peaceful peach and ivory wedding images to share with you thanks to Ashley Link Photography!įrom Ashley Link Photography: The entire day was full of emotion, but in the calmest and softest way possible. No cake, no giant wedding party and no overly packed schedule for this wedding couple. Sydney and Thomas took all of this stress in stride and chose to cut anything that wasn't necessary or personally satisfying. Planning them, organizing your vendors, and even the actual day can easily make your head spin.
