A Fall Fairytale Wedding
1. The bride did not arrive in a carriage.
2. Her ride did not turn into a pumpkin at the stroke of midnight.
3. She did not run from the ball at the Rockwood Manor or lose a glass slipper on the stairs.
4. Toasts were made and vows exchanged. A community of friends with longstanding bonds, new friends, and family who had watched her grow-up joined together, showering her and her prince with loving blessings. Roses bloomed by a gushing fountain. On a perfect fall day, gold and silver gifts were piled high.
5. The chocolate cake matched the dresses on the ladies in waiting. Fireworks exploded and everything from the polka to the “Rock the Casbah” was danced to.
6. A kiss sealed the spell. Friends and family wish them well as they write the first chapter of their happily ever after story.
Post note: Wedding congratulations to out to my friend Juniper’s daughter, Autumn, and her new husband Kris!

Lovely photo essay. The shadow on the pumpkin was fun. A chocolate wedding cake is an interesting idea, and delicious I bet. They look wonderfully happy.

It looks perfect, a realy storybook wedding. And the bride's name is also a perfect match for the season, the weather, the decorations! Congrats to the lovely couple.

That is one of the first autumn weddings I really really liked. What wonderful decor and cake! The cake was magnificent...I wish I had a bite. And the pumpkins on the table, very cute and still so tasteful. Traditional with a new look, very nice. Congrats to the new couple. They had tons of presents! They must have lots and lots of friends!

It seems the wedding reflected the same sense of wellness you have when you meet Kris and Autumm personally..I see this wedding as a victory of life.
