Sabrina + Ryan - August 2011 - Owls, Nature, Farm theme!
Testimonial from Sabrina and
Ryan
August 1, 2011
Falcon Ridge Farms, Harvest
Golf Course
Hiring Agatha to be our
wedding planner was definitely the best decision we made leading up to our
wedding. She was a fantastic resource during the planning stage and instantly
gave us years of insight and experience about planning fantastic events. The
recommendations and advice she provided were spot on and she help us find the
best wedding vendors in the business.
Our wedding was everything we
hoped for. It was truly the greatest day of our lives and we were flattered to
hear many friends tell us it was the best wedding they had ever attended.
Agatha played a huge part in that. She was organized, calm, and helped direct a
perfectly executed ceremony and reception. Having Agatha work her magic behind
the scenes provided us confidence and peace of mind, so we were able to simply
enjoy the day. If we were to ever get married again (which we don't plan to
do!!!), we'd definitely hire her again.
-Sabrina and Ryan
Sabrina and Ryan chose an outdoor ceremony location, Falcon Ridge Farms and their outdoor natural theme carried through with their mason jar centerpieces filled with summer blooms, wheat, grasses and hypericum berries. This couple put so much thought into this wedding. The personalizations were extensive and the day was truly there's. Even the outhouse on the farm had a marvelous poster created by Ryan for the day. Even some of there photos took on a whimsical tone, similar to "Ma and Pa Kettle" on the Farm. A -4 page program outlined the events of the weekend for guests. There were arranged Golf tournaments, Wine Tours, Dinner Parties, Beach and Volleyball, a Country BBQ at Bertram Creek Park for rehearsal dinner, with guests invited. Then after parties and more after parties.
Comfort of their guests was forefront for this couple. After the ceremony at the farm, they served Blueberry Echinacea Iced Tea to the guests, with the Echinacea grown on location, along with prepackaged cookies to nibble on. Shuttle buses transported the guests from location to location, so no one had to worry about drinking and driving. A fitting location for their reception was the floor to ceiling wood and glass beamed room at the Harvest Golf course. Guests looked out onto a large pond and waterfall inhabited by ducks and other wildlife. The 3 day event was an extraordinary party for both the couple and their invited guests.

He was the master of event forms. Equally, the Wedding event portrayed exactly who this couple are, their interests and tastes acknowledging the strong ties they share with their family and friends. They shared themselves with those people most important in their lives. Best wishes always!
