“Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can’t help falling in love with you”
-Elvis Presley
They have a timeless kinda' love. The day had come for this beautiful couple, Kristina + Dennis to tie the knot. Kristina and Dennis were wed at the beautiful and charming 1812 Hitching Post in Harmony, NC.
“The 1812 Hitching Post with its 18-room main house and 26 private acres of grounds is the only authentic antebellum plantation in the foothills of North Carolina dedicated exclusively to wedding ceremonies and receptions.” – 1812 Hitching Post
Mason jars hanging from shepherds hooks along the aisle added a bit of vintage-rustic chic. These jars were filled with pale pink lisianthus, coral roses, purple scabiosa, etc. The lovely flowers were provided by Willow Branch Flowers and Design from Mooresville, NC.
For the bride, a hand-tied style bouquet of pale pink to ivory roses, white ranunculus, pale pink and white lisianthus, pale pink astilbe and ivory hydrangea tied with burlap and vintage lace. For the bridesmaids, a hand-tied style bouquet of pale pink pisianthus, dark purple veronica, hot pink stock, pale pink astilbe, yellow solidago, coral spray roses, lavender scabiosa and tied with ivory ribbon.
Hair/make-up by Tabatha Hefner at Salon Beyond in Hickory, NC.
Boutonnieres for the groom and groomsmen are made of ivory rose, ranunculus, or lisianthus accented with astilbe and greenery, and groomsmen had pink lisianthus accented with purple and yellow filler and greenery.
These guys grew up together and this is the car they used to drive around in together back in the day
Mother and son…
Kristina and Dennis have GREAT taste in music, that’s for sure! Their ceremony/reception featured timeless songs by Elvis Presley, Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra, Peggy Lee, The Chordettes, and The Beatles, as well as tons of other great tunes to dance the night away!

And to end a great night… sparklers for the grand exit!
