Christina and Charlie's Christmas Wedding

This year the holiday spirit has been.....somewhat elusive, to be honest.  Lots of damp and gloomy weather the past few weeks haven't helped--it's just been hard to feel jolly!  But thank goodness for my brides!  Several beautiful Christmas weddings have been wonderful experiences and reminded me of all the good things about the holidays:  beauty, joy, family, and laughter.

Christina and Charlie were married at Zoar United Methodist Church, and celebrated with a reception at Summit Chase Country Club.  From the moment I stepped into the beautifully decorated foyer I had a feeling it would be a beautiful setting, and it truly was.  Once the candles and tree were lit, the scene was just magical.

Fathers and their daughters:  Christina with her dad and Charlie with his little girl, Isabella.

 

 Sure, I could have shared one of the formal portraits of the bridal party......but what fun would that be?!

 The entire wedding party made a grand entrance, culminating with the happy couple.

I love it when the bride and groom are in their own world during the first dance.

Christina and her father performed a choreographed dance routine that brought the house down.

Congratulations and Merry Christmas to Christina and Charlie and their families!
