There is so much to love about this next real wedding from KMI Photography.  Ashley + Joo may have met in the Triangle, but when it came time to exchange their vows, the couple chose the most personal of locations – the bride’s small hometown of Rose Hill, NC.  The ceremony took place at the picture perfect Oak Plain Presbyterian Church and the reception took place…where else…the bride’s family home where she (and her grandmother!) grew up.  A picture perfect, Southern reception took place beneath a tent set on the grounds.

Love this last shot of Ashley and her dad waiting for their big moment down the aisle.  It is such a moment to be treasured forever and I love that KMI immortalized it with this photo.

There are so many great details at this reception…so perfectly location (and season!) appropriate.  I love the lemonade in mason jars of course, made extra festive and wedding appropriate with their adorable personalized flags.  They are simple and beautiful all lined up on a charming eyelet cotton linen.  Ashely took extra care to tell her guests exactly what was so special about a few different elements of the reception.  I love the result.  So low on effort but high on style and personality.

Is this not the perfect at home wedding?  These two are so cute together, it hurts.  Thank you so much Ashley + Joo for letting us all share in such an amazing day.  We’ve got another wedding from KMI Photography coming up later this week!
