Hendrick and Kelly: A Very Virginia Rehearsal Dinner at Castle Hill Cider

Tuesday, October 18th, 2011

Here’s another posting from Kelly and Hendrick, this being their rehearsal dinner which took place back in late July at Castle Hill Cider. This being my first visit to Castle Hill, I immediately fell in love with it’s wide open indoor space and ring of trees off to the side. Kelly had mentioned to me and Jason that a lot of their guests would be children, so the rehearsal dinner would involve many games and activities with them in mind.

The dinner theme was also very “Virginia” oriented. Wines from nearby vineyards and wineries, and local Starr Hill Brewery beverages were provided for the “adult kids.”

I took several shots of this guy doing hundreds of somersaults on what felt like the hottest day of the year. He didn’t seem phased by the heat one bit, though. The young are so resilient.

Refreshingly cold, lavender-infused washcloths were passed out to cool guests off. These cloths reminded me of the end of Bikram yoga class, when the instructor would pass these out to everyone after sweating their bums off for 90 minutes.

Aubrey and Loo: 7.24.2010 Amissville, VA Wedding

Thursday, August 26th, 2010

006836 R1 021 9 Aubrey and Loo:  7.24.2010  Amissville, VA Wedding

Sweet Aubrey and Loo.  I just love seeing the two of them together.  When Loo looks at Aubrey, I can see tenderness and awe in his eyes.  We met them six years ago through our friends Todd and Sara, whose beautiful vineyard wedding we photographed in 2008.  In the time that Jason and I have been friends with Aubrey and Loo, we’ve come to know them as our friends who can make great music, delicious food and beautiful babies.  Aubrey has a little baby girl on the way due sometime in September!

It was only natural for the two of them to have a casual and laid back wedding amongst their friends and family.   The celebration took place at Aubrey’s parent’s home in rural Amissville on what felt like the hottest day of the year.  Just about everyone found themselves at some point in the pool, myself and Jason included.

The day before the wedding, Jason and I, along with Todd and a few other friends were hanging out in our dining room.  While Todd was trying to write his speech for the toast, someone came up with the idea of writing a haiku.  This is what we all came up with, and yes, this is exactly what Todd recited at the wedding:

Loo and Aubrey

Louis… is a short ninja

Aubrey… is pregnant

Laughter all around, and Todd continued with a heartfelt speech, and at the end of it, read another haiku:

Loo and Aubrey

They are a perfect pairing

Lifetime happiness

Thank you so much Louis and Aubrey, for being our good friends and for letting me and Jason be a part of your lives and celebration.  It was so amazing to be amongst all of our dear friends on such a special day.  We love you and wish you a lifetime of happiness!
