Noemi (Becky) and Angel were married at the Ainsworth House and Gardens.  It was the first wedding of the year held under the giant sequoia next to the grand old victorian that sits as the centerpiece to this beautiful estate. What a magnificent backdrop to their colorful and joyful celebration.

The ceremony was presented by Rev. Kevin Yell and tears were flowing from several family members as Michelle and Todd spoke there vows to each other. How sweet they were.

The New Year is a wonderful time for a wedding.  Chloe and Ryan picked the perfect January Day to get married at the Oaks Pioneer Church, or maybe their weather karma was just peaking, or maybe it was just plain old lucky-in-love, cup-runneth-over, blissfully happy stuff.  It was a special day for these two lovely people.  The Oaks Pioneer Church is a quaint and adorable historic (previously episcopal) chapel that makes a wonderful backdrop for pictures.  Chloe and Ryan stretched that little chapel to maximum capacity and more with all of their family and friend attending.  The wedding ceremony was beautifully presented by Pastor Roger Moore (Moore Creative Weddings).

After the ceremony, flower petals filled the air and a limo filled the street. We moved to the Ainsworth House Conservatory for the dinner, catered by Sara Bergandine and the team at Art de Cuisine and the party MC/dj'd by Lynn and Mark of Celebration Music and Events.  The cake was provided by Pastry Girls and included a Grooms cake as well as the traditional and beautifully decorated Wedding Cake.

On a brisk, clear, beautiful New Years Day, Kass and Ben started the new year out with a party like many people do, however, it was preceeded by their wedding and what a wonderful wedding it was!

The festivities and the nuptials took place at the Ainsworth House.  It takes a master gardener to create a property that even looks beautiful within the clutches of winter.  The designers and creators wth the proverbial green thumbs did not disappoint on this day.  Stark and beautiful I believe are adequate discriptives.  With the chilly weather providing incentives, we used the property in different ways than we normally do getting beautiful images while staying warm and cozy.

The flowers, in beautiful, vibrant, striking colors and creative arrangements were provided by Jennifer Agard at Forte Floral Artistry.  The ceremony was wonderfully spoken by Fr. Kevin Yell who also happens to be one of the proprietors at the Ainsworth House.  Kass' father played a wonderful rendition  of Pacabel's 'Canon in D' for the processional on classical guitar.  The festivities were directed by Nancy, of the Ainsworth House.  Catering was provided by, Catering by Laurie.  Once the party started it was taken well in hand by Kris from Prime Time Music with lots of enthusiastic dancing and even a limbo!

Thanks for letting us be part of your New Years Day guys!
