Cuteness Overload Alert! Just in time for St. Patrick's Day!
The fact that the magical matrimony date was on St. Patrick's Day, just added to the fun and frivolity of the delightful Newsome wedding! From the beginning of the planning stages, when we knew it was happening on March 17th, until the final moments, it was magic and special. These two are made for each other, and just getting to watch them attempt to put together their forever cross at the altar during the ceremony was enough to convince us that they're the ultimate team!
Congratulations, Lorie & Keith! Woohoo!
I love the look on Lorie's face in this photo..."look what I won!"... The newest Mrs. Davis is truly blessed and loves her some Keith, so it's all good. What a tremendous wedding...and primarily because it turned out EXACTLY as they had wished! Laid back, elegant and comfortable were their goals, and they got all three. Guests had an excellent time and it was lovely all the way around. We even got to have the ceremony outdoors, despite the strong winds from the North!
The ringleaders of the "Stickel Squad" were in the house for WHD!
Who traveled the furthest for Wedding Homecoming Dinner this year? That's right, Kristi & Lynn! All the way from Arizona! We were so thrilled to have them here, and so glad they could 're-visit' their special place from their special day. Denise is working with Jennifer and me to get the photos of all our WHD couples out here little by little....but I'm usually the hold up....we'll get there. Patience. Patience! A red-letter day at the chapel today! Lorie & Keith were
Can we get you a little vintage with that wedding?
One of the genuinely excellent parts of being able to custom craft each and every wedding at the chapel is the opportunity to use our personal collection of cool, old stuff! From antique cups and saucers, to vintage cake plates, to one.of.a.kind old-school dinner plates, etc., it's all like no other place we know. So many of our brides are swept away by the vintage elegance and rustic uniqueness of our special place. We're so blessed by the facility, but also so very bless
Welcome to the world, Miss Heidi Rae!
Who is the NEWest Caliber Oak baby?!?! That's right, Miss Heidi Rae Mastrilli! She declared her independence from Molly yesterday morning, and it's fitting that it was Texas Independence Day! We couldn't be happier for two people we love greatly and now love a third, already! It's such a wonderful feel when the couples who are married here become parents...kind of completes a cycle, and we get to feel like we've been a small part of that story. Cannot wait to meet the ne
