Saturday, October 9, 2010, I had the pleasure of photographing the union of the Whitmire and Rhew families. I acutally went to high school and college (go Heels!) with the groom, Adam. He met his bride by chance while on a cruise after graduation. The bride, Brittany, was described during the toasts as a planner. She planned every detail of their rustic mountain wedding at Pinebrook Manor in Hendersonville, North Carolina and it was gorgeous!
Brittany even handmade the ceremony programs (below)!
The session started in the Lord Byron suite (how poetic) where Brittany and her girls were primping & sipping champagne. Here are a few of the getting ready shots (below).

The bride wore boots (by Frye)! |
Yes, that is a UNC garter (above)!
We went outside for some fun group shots (below).
The ladies went into hiding while the men had their session (below).
The groom pours the men a glass of scotch. Afterward, they watch the Alabama v. South Carolina football game in the library.
The ceremony was held outside in the rose garden & the weather was perfect (below)!

The maid-of-honor signs the marriage certificate and makes it official (below)!
We stole some time before the reception to pose in front of the getaway car - the bride's uncle's restored red Ford truck (below).

After dinner, the couple cut the delicious cake, which sat atop a tree ring (below).
The flower girl, Bella, didn't want to give up those petals, even at the reception!
The Rhews' first dance (below).
The bridal party changes into boots so they can get down!
This was a FUN crowd! They had a Quad City DJs train going on below

A little trouble getting it over the boots...
He got it!
The ladies went all out for the bouquet toss!
The bride is thinking, "why do you have a sparkler in the truck?!"
And they're off to the Dominican Republic!
