::::Kim & Chris:::: 5*28*11

Kim & Chris shared a day of sunshine and love on May 28th 2011. Both ceremony and reception was at Gatherings in Virgil, NY.

Inspired by their dream to own a family farm Kim and Chris asked A Pink Door to give them a feel of rustic home. Things from the garden (basil, rosemary, and strawberries) greeted the guest as they were offered bottled water from a vintage red wagon (not pictured).

Surrounded by the mountains of green trees and a back drop of tiny rustic wood cabins. Kim and Chris said their vows of love to each other under an arch draped with white blossom garland, framed with willow branches, and on each side of the couple two vintage whiskey barrels host lilac bushes named of course The Kim Lilac (not pictured).

Family and friends were escorted to their tables by a little packet of seeds. Each table was centered with a match fruit, flower, or veggie to match the guest's packets.

Each centerpiece was labeled with a recreation of a vintage produce ad with Mr. and Mrs. Kelchner's name hidden in each design. Inside the box sat lovely tulips growing from moss and wildflowers picked and sat in vintage Ball Mason jars found in the Grooms basement.

Tasty cupcakes by Gingersnap Bakery with flavors of mint chocolate, orange cream, and chocolate raspberry. The little treats sat on silver trays and stacked crates. As dainty dragonflies gently laid on the cloud of whipped frosting.

Kim and Chris was such a delight to work with. It was magical to see them together....but what was so special was the love that they shared for their children,family, and friends.

Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Kelchner for letting A Pink Door apart of your special day!
