Tracey & Kevin – Stone House at Stirling Ridge Wedding

It’s only fitting that the first time I met Tracey & Kevin, for our initial consultation, it was Valentine’s Day. It’s hard not to fall in love (see what I did there 😉 ) with these two. They have such a lighthearted way about them. It’s just easy being with them and they instantly made me feel like part of the family. I kinda forgot I was ‘working’ the day of their Stone House at Stirling Ridge wedding!

Note to all future groomsmen… you need to step it up a notch when it comes to getting ready when your friend gets married.  If you don’t have skeeball, Budweiser, and a Costco sized box of Goldfish crackers, are you even doing it right?

The difference between men and women when getting their photos taken, in a nutshell.

Just kidding guys, you know how to pose beautifully!

You can’t tell from the photos, but it was freezing that day!! We’d had such nice fall-time weather up until the wedding day when a cold snap decided to roll in. Thank goodness we had these color-coordinated blanket-shawls for the bridesmaids to keep warm.

My favorite part 🙂

If you’ve ever eaten at the restaurant side of the Stone House at Stirling Ridge, this is probably the part you remember most: the glass wine tower! I wonder if I can live in there? Talk about a happy place!

Bestill my heart! Is this not the coolest ceremony spot!! YELLOW!!!!!!

When the maid of honor’s speech is that good!

When the Best Man knew the bride longer than the groom there is sure to be lots of good dirt to dig up.

And now for the get down! So twirl-worthy, every future bride should take into consideration the twirl-factor of their wedding dress when making the decision.

When the bride plans events as a career, it’s sure to be a bitchin’ party!

Apparently there was some family tradition to dance with the ties across their heads according to Kevin’s sister. Or perhaps that was the tequila talking.

I love how the bride and groom are barely in this shot, kinda like a Where’s Waldo. Their friends just love them that much!
