Count the Happies

Congrats to Kat & Adam! Their wedding cuteness started at the ceremony. Their banjo motif was carried from their invitation suite to their programs. I love the quote placed on their programs that I previously blogged about here. This quote was placed on its own separate flap of the program, so no matter what section you were reading, you could always read this quote too. Each guest received a wooden horseshoe as well - We're lucky!


They're married!!


This was the pathway through the pines to the reception.


They were blessed with an absolutely gorgeous day : )




I loved their 'guest book' idea! A polaroid was taken of each guest with vintage frames. Then we shook it like a polaroid picture (because it was one) before writing a message & our names on our polaroid with a sharpie. Then we tacked it up on a burlap board... LOVED THIS. They had a custom corn hole set made for guests to play as well. This corn hole set included their new monogram & the banjo as previously mentioned - So fun.


Mason jars? I'm always for them! I loved the flowers as well... BEAUTIFUL.


Below you'll find the precious newlyweds dining on some seriously tasty Southern fare. We had mac n' cheese, sweet potato biscuits with ham & mustard, shrimp and grits, BBQ sliders with coleslaw, veggies, southern pasta salads and lots of other deliciousness.


Everything gets hotter when the sun goes down...


They had a pumpkin mousse layer in their cake! The bride surprised the groom with his favorite dessert for all of us to share in on too - Banana Pudding.


Instead of the traditional bouquet and garter toss, Kat & Adam opted for this... Every married couple started dancing. Then as the band called out various lengths of married times, five hours, less than six months, one year, etc. the couples would leave the dance floor. The last couple standing got the bouquet (which was 43 years). So sweet! Their band played one of my favorite songs - I Gotta Feeling - so of course I was dancing with Hank!


Dancing the night away & drinking out of a mason jar ; )


I loved the stamps on their favor bags, 'Count the Happies' and 'All You Need is Love.'



The bride & groom's favorite cookies were inside. This was such a fun night. Wishing the happiest of happy lives to Kat & Adam - They're always a blast, and they can dance!!
