As promised here is part 2 of Seth & Kristi’s wedding celebration! If you missed Part 1 you can find it here. Part 2 features their ceremony, the reception decor, and the reception. The backyard ceremony and reception were held at the bride’s family farm in Westminster, MD. All of the beautiful rustic and vintage decor and signage were provided by Dirt Road Designs based in Carroll County, MD. One of the ladies who runs Dirt Road Designs was actually a bridesmaid! The country home-cookin’ was provided by Bullock’s Restaurant and Catering. (all links at the end of the post). So many family members and friends stepped in to pull this all together.   The florals on the sweetheart table were displayed in a grain scoop. Kristi told me that she won it back in the day in 4-H and her mom found it in the basement the week of the wedding. The guestbook bench is a huge trend right now! It fit their wedding day theme perfectly. Straw bales not only suit their theme, but were perfect for seating almost 500 guests. Kristi and her dad arrived in vintage style! A family member or friend was tinkering with it to get it running up until the day before the wedding. It worked great on the wedding day, but when they went to move it the day after it wouldn’t start! It was meant to be that she arrive in this neat old truck. Kristi’s niece wanted to be a part of the fun! One of my favorite dances at any reception is the anniversary dance. I always spot a few older couples holding each other and looking at each other like it was their own wedding day. True, lasting, committed, unconditional love only grows as the years pass by. I always love hearing the words of wisdom from the longest married couple! Seth’s garter removal was definitely the most animated I have ever witnessed!   Vendors: Florist – Becky Rickell
