Hilltop Manor Inn Country Wedding

The air was thick with that sticky August heat, and blue skies reigned without a cloud in sight. Because of this, last Saturday was the perfect day for Ashley and Brandon’s Hilltop Manor Inn country themed wedding. The bride wore a lovely, lace dress complete with pearls and cowboy boots. Also, sunflowers provided the perfect complement to their sunny day. The bridesmaids wore purple lace dresses, and the groom and groomsmen wore their cowboy hats with pride. Everyone looked great, and everyone was excited their day was here!

“Ashley and Brandon tied the knot while surrounded by their loved ones and friend at the Hilltop Manor Inn”

As Ashley and Brandon tied the knot, surrounded by their loved ones and friend at the Hilltop Manor Inn, it was obvious that laughter was the theme of the day, and I’d have to say that Ashley and Brandon’s son stole the day with his antics. He was the cutest! The minute the wedding ceremony was over and family photos were done, off went his shirt, and I’m pretty sure he didn’t wear it for the rest of the day. Not that I blame him, it was crazy hot! Even more entertaining was the little John Deere tractor that the ring bearers played with before the ceremony.

There’s always something you notice about a wedding day, and almost always something that stands out. Each and every one. Most noteworthy, for Ashley and Brandon, was how much their family loves them and wants them to succeed. They were there to cheer them on as they began their life together. Everyone was surrounding them to offer support and love and encouragement, and there’s nothing better than having a strong support network of generations of love to help you succeed on this adventure of a lifetime called marriage.

Ashley & Brandon, you are so blessed. Thank you for letting me be a part of your big day, and I wish you many long and happy years of marriage! Congratulations!
