Andrew and Jodi

Andrew and Jodi were married November 12 and had a fabulous reception at The Stables afterword. All day long they were just giddy with excitement and their wedding was truly a joy to be a part of. They had some really neat aspects to their wedding and we wanted to share them with you! 


Their guest book was a photo book featuring all of their engagement photos. 

At the rehearsal Jodi changed her entrance song from "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desire" to a more dramatic song we had on file and it was amazing! We are still basking in the moment of the doors swinging open!!


We thought their centerpieces were the coolest! They looked beautiful in The Stables. 

The leaves on the cake were the perfect touch for a fall wedding, plus everything is better with some sparkle!!

Don't you just want that in your house?! So pretty! 

Guests moving through the buffet line. 

Those rolls look so yummy! Another great meal provided by our chef, Jaime Akers. 

The sweetheart's table taken from (the stalker view) the balcony above!

Some sweet treats set up in front of the fireplace. What could be better!


Such an amazing sunset that night, and such an amazing couple!!

Once again, we wish you nothing but the best Jodi and Andrew! Thanks for choosing to celebrate with us!!

Amelia and Matt - A Match Made in Heaven!

We were so blessed to have Matt and Amelia get married this past weekend at the chapel. We loved getting to know their fun families and be a part of their special day. Amelia was a GORGEOUS bride and was so organized! She chose a beautiful fall theme that was carried out wonderfully in the reception decor at The Stables. Amelia and Matt had their families involved in every step of the wedding and it lent such a heartfelt feel to the whole day. Her father prayed over the couple before giving her away and her mother and aunts spent the afternoon putting the final touches on the decor at The Stables for the reception. We wish you nothing but the best Matt and Amelia!!

Here are a few of our favorite pictures we snapped throughout the day:

 This is just moments after seeing each other for the first time. They were both so excited and yet so calm! 

 The whole day was such a reflection of their personal flare...we loved Amelia's headpiece and Matt's spiffy hat! 

Absolutely breathtaking!

 Praying before the ceremony.

Amelia had such a contagious laugh. It's no wonder why Matt was so excited to spend the rest of his life with her!  

The rain did get the best of us for a little bit, but underneath the covered front doors of the bridal suite were a great place to get some pictures outside.  

Amelia's dress was a gorgeous creamy satin that had rows of pearls and beads on the train and bodice. 

It goes without saying why Matt couldn't keep his eyes off of her! 

Amelia and Matt chose to have a harpist play for their wedding and it turned out wonderfully. It was the perfect touch to the simple, yet elegant ceremony.  

The couple recited their vows, exchanged their rings, and sealed it with a kiss all to be followed by a closing prayer for their marriage. It is always so encouraging to see a couple get married who understands the covenant of marriage! We'll be praying for you too!

Then it was time to CELEBRATE!!  

 We loved the idea of a big kids' table!! It was complete with candy and favors for the kids!
  
Guests enjoyed a dinner of pork tenderloin, seasoned chicken, vegetables, and more. It's always a delicious meal when it's at The Stables!

The amazing centerpieces added the perfect touch of fall to the evening.  

Another neat detail were the favors Amelia and Matt chose. They had guests pick out a tree to plant in their honor. What a way to give back! 

Not that Matt wasn't already having a great day, but the NBA lockout ended on his wedding day!!! He was so excited! Go Heat! 

Look at those flowing leaves, how beautiful and how delicious!!

The happy couple ate their meal at the sweetheart's table right by the fireplace. How romantic! 

Congratulations again Matt and Amelia! May God continually bless your marriage!

Real Weddings: Jon and Jen

We had the privilege of spending the 4th of July weekend with some great couples, kicking off by welcoming the families of Jon and Jennifer to Integrity Hills. This great group checked in to the Villa and Cottage on Friday, enjoying the pool and warm weather throughout the weekend while celebrating the joining of two families.  Jon and Jennifer put great care into planning their wedding weekend, making sure all their guests would be happy and entertained.  The couple hosted a barbecue dinner at The Villa Friday night, where the kids enjoyed swimming and the adults enjoyed cocktails and mingling.  On Saturday the ladies relaxed while the fellas braved the heat for a round of golf.  

The ceremony Saturday evening was kept intimate with only family and the closest friends attending, and when it was time for the reception the bride and groom greeted additional guests to The Stables for dinner and dancing.   Jon is a big fan of fireworks so it was perfectly fitting that they ended their reception with a huge display over The Villa patio.  One of our favorite things (besides the couple themselves who we adore!) was the kids corner...Jennifer planned two tables filled with crayons, craft paper, gift buckets, candy and cupcakes for the little ones.  This was a huge hit for the kids, and also for the adults who got to enjoy their adult meal while the kids enjoyed coloring and dining on hamburgers.

Congratulations to Jon, Jennifer and their wonderful families.  Thank you for sharing your special weekend with us.

A stunning bride.
Jennifer and Jon were able to enjoy some private time before the wedding,
sneaking into The Stables for photos alone.

Jennifer chose bright colors of pink, purple, and blue.  
Two different centerpieces, one tall and one short, filled the tables.
Three cylinders showcased the three individual colors and flowers Jennifer chose.
Garden Roses. 
Jennifer's bouquet was gorgeous! 
Artistry in Bloom provided extra flowers to decorate the buffet table.
This is a great idea!
As guests arrived they were greeted by the bride and groom, and offered a glass of champagne.
The couple shares a love for wine.  Jon specially ordered a few of his favorite bottles to share with guests.
We are happy to help get specific items that are meaningful to our couples. 

The Kids Corner.
We set up a seperate buffet and two tables with craft paper in one of the corners.
Everyone loved this.
Candy, Crayons and Cupcakes decorated the tables.
Each kid received a gift bucket that included glow stick bracelets, sticker books, coloring books and bubbles.


Nothing says "Let's Celebrate" like fireworks.

Our staff enjoyed the fireworks display as well.
Guests took home boxes filled with truffles and tied with sparklers.
