Wrap It Up Pretty!
Labor Day weekend is such a bittersweet time here in New England. Sure, we all love a long weekend, who doesn’t? But it’s that whole symbolic end of summer thing that I have a problem with. Of course, fall is just about the prettiest time here with leaves turning and pumpkin picking and the whole apple cider thing, but in the back of everyone’s mind is the fact that it’s no doubt getting colder and right around the corner is winter…But I’m getting waaaaay too ahead of myself! So here’s to enjoying your Labor Day weekend festivities, end of summer and all, no matter where they may be and don’t worry your pretty, little heads because we’ll be taking a break from our own festivities on Monday to share some inspiration here and on all ten of our local blogs. Here’s a sweet, little e-session from Cade Bowman Photography to tide you over til then! xoxo

From Cade Bowman Photography: Mike and Laura will be celebrating the start of their life together on June 9, 2012 in Raleigh, NC. Laura went to school at the University of Virginia, and since they spent much of their dating life in the area, they decided to travel up to Charlottesville, VA for their engagement shoot. Barboursville Vineyard lends itself well to engagement shoots. Nestled in the Virginia mountains, the landscape is to die for. The ruins of former Governor Barbour’s mansion, which was designed by none other than Thomas Jefferson, add to the charm of this stunning landscape. Finally, we headed over to UVA’s campus where Michelle Smith pulled together many details and colors that the couple will be incorporating into their wedding day.

I can really appreciate those mixed feelings about the long weekend. We had our late summer bank holiday weekend here in the UK last week and it always marks the turning of the seasons for me. Fortunately we had lovely weather for the Monday which was the local regatta day in my home village in Cornwall so it made it much more bearable this year.
I love your blog and referred to it endlessly ahead of our wedding next Saturday.
Enjoy the weekend.

Fantastic style of photography ! This is something which is isn't mainstream in the UK at present, but it would be great if this style was filtered across the ocean and into some UK wedding albums.

Wahoowah! I'm reading this from my office, across McCormick Road from where the picture with Mr. Jefferson's serpentine walls was taken. Congratulations, Mike and Laura!

Thank you, I have recently been looking for information approximately this subject for a while and yours is the greatest I've came upon till now. But, what concerning the bottom line? Are you positive about the source?|What i do not realize is in reality how you are now not really much more well-preferred than you might be now. You're so intelligent.
