Ryan + Ashley . Married! A Lesner Inn Wedding

Jake & I started our drive to Ryan & Ashley’s getting ready sights.  The clouds were rolling in and looked like storm.  By the time I dropped Jake off at his location the rain was pouring and I had to run in to where Ashley was without getting drenched! There went my perfectly curled hair and I completely left my wedding shoes in the car.  With my Canadian flops on I headed into the room where Ashley was preparing to be a bride.  As I entered every one was dressed in beautiful flowered robes and so beautiful.  I got started a bit early which made the day flow so much more smoothly.  Ashley was so beautiful as she slipped on her very gorgeous dress.  It was very different from dresses I have seen, but so her and so pretty!

 After we finished up at the hotel we headed over to the beautiful  Lesner Inn in Virginia Beach, VA . This was our second weekend in a row there and as always it was such a treat to be there.  Her navy blue and champagne colors filled the venue and decorated the place so perfectly.  I have to say I cannot believe how humid of a day it was for October.  My lenses were actually fogging up in October?

The ceremony was on the outside deck and Ryan & Ashley’s friends and families filled all the seats.  They were waiting to see the beautiful bride and groom get married.  As Ashley walked the short aisle Ryan was nothing but big smiles.  He anxiously waited as Ashley’s dad gave her away!  The two of them hand in hand reciting their vows to one another, it took everything for Ashley not to cry as she recited hers.  Then the kiss!  Ryan and Ashley are now husband and wife and the true party and celebration began!  This wedding reception was so much fun to watch.  There were very few seats with bodies in them because everyone was on the dance floor having so much fun!

To Ryan and Ashley, thank you for letting us celebrate with you both.  We are so grateful to have been a part.  We wish you both a life of love and happiness.  Blessings to all your family and friends, too!  Jake & Jennifer x0x0
