M&M's Commitment Ceremony- October 23, 2010

As I have stated in previous posts, I so enjoyed getting to meet these wonderful ladies & their family and friends. Enjoy these fabulous pictures taken by Austin Proshots.

And here are a few taken by a family member who stayed at The Inn over the weekend. Thank you Jeff...I loved all your picture descriptions on FB. =)

We went ahead and set the ceremony in both locations due to the large chance of rain. However, the evening turned out beautiful so the ceremony went off in the lawn and these chairs got moved to the tables before the event got going.

Ceremony musicians...always a nice touch especially when they are friends of the couple and sing an original score.

New Twitter Sign

Here is the latest addition to our sign post that welcomes guest into The Inn. Another wonderful use for the old fencing I aquired several months back. A couple of paint pens, a sharpie and the "how can I make this unique?" attituded and voila.

As you can probably guess more signs will follow. Right now there is the welcome sign to The Inn along with parking & handicap/vendor drop off directional.

Farmer-Ussery Wedding's Professional Pictures

It always amazes me how fabulously creative professional photographers can be. What a wonderful art form that is!

These pictures are highlights from our August 2nd wedding taken by Cho Photography. They are a husband and wife team and as you can see they are fabulous at their art form. Enjoy!!!

Updates on Landscaping

The first three pictures where taken last July. This barren hillside has been a thorn in our side aesthetically since we became owners. This is where my love of landscape design gets utilized.

This is off the back porch.

This shot is taken off the veranda towards the pond.
This is looking out towards the ceremony site.

So here is the landscaping work in progress. We have created two sets of rustic stairs with a terraced flower bed in the middle (still in progress here).

This is the way most brides walk out towards the ceremony site. We wanted to make the stairs nice and wide for the times when brides are walked down the aisle by both parents.

No more climbing the bare hill. :)

This picture is taken from the veranda. Another view of the terraced flower beds.

Here is a view of the terraced patio area we are creating. The patio off the deck (where the bar is) will consist of pavers and grass that will taper off into the lawn area. We are planning on another flower bed in the very sunny spot right next to the pond walkway. It is the area that doesn't have green.

Shot of the gazing globe. This bed includes Mutabilis antique rose, columbine, bronze fennel, yarrow, nicotiana, penstemon, thyme, fleabane, lambs ear, hostas, mock orange and sweet olive.

The upper small patio will consist of pavers and river stones.

I will post pictures as everything gets finished up. I am so excited! I hope you are too.
