Now That's A Large Wedding Party!!!
Well, one thing’s for sure - Sarah & Graham have A LOT of close friends! This must be one of the largest wedding parties we have had. 12 bridesmaids, 12 groomsmen, plus an adorable flower girl. Hats off to their planner and photographer to keep things organized and moving the entire day/night. Not an easy task with that many people. Thankfully, Keswick Vineyards offers a very spacious bridal suite and man’s cave for the men to enjoy while here. That man’s cave also doubled as a viewing room for the Kentucky Derby later that evening. It never fails that every year for the Kentucky Derby wedding guests will pile into the man’s cave for about 10 minutes to watch the race and then head back out to the reception.
So, a big congratulations to Sarah and Graham for being married at Keswick Vineyards on May 6th, 2023. Again, the weather could not have been any better. Blue skies, a few clouds to add texture to their photos, a slight breeze, warmth of the sun and then cooler at night to keep everyone comfortable during dancing and boy did this group dance! Food was amazing! So many complements about it. My favorite is always the shrimp and grits appetizer.
Sarah and Graham chose to have their ceremony in front of Edgewood Estate. An Estate built in 1911. Such a classic, elegant backdrop. The couple chose to add some florals along the edge of the fountain which could be moved to a 2nd location after the ceremony. I think what really sold Sarah on this ceremony location is how we surprise the wedding guests by having the bride come in from a different direction then the rest of the wedding party. While the wedding party enters from the top of the fountain and we use the pathway around the fountain sort of like a maze for them, I sneak the bride and her father off in my golf cart to enter from the back vineyard. No one is expecting that. When the bride’s song starts, the fountain turns off, and the bride magically appears out from the vineyard walking the long driveway to the alter. Yes, my daughter is a theater major, and it definitely is wearing off on me. ☺ Seriously, I just love it when we do this! And just take a look at that view! Hard to beat.
