Rachel & Cody

Rachel anc Cody's childhood homes back up to each other. Rachel was best friends with one of the boys from across the yard- Cody's younger brother!

While she always found the older sibling cute, Cody wasn’t interested. . . until, that is, he moved away and came home to visit. He chased after Rachel until he won her over.

The ceremony was held beneath an ar- bor overlooking the property. Guests sat in chairs provided by the venue that coordinated perfectly with the tan suits sported by the groom and groomsmen. The bridesmaids were dressed in light blue, which was picked up in the florals and groomsmen’s accessories.

Wrapped in Rachel’s bouquet was the necklace her mother in law had worn for her wedding day. They performed a unity sand art ceremony, creating a fun memento that the couple can keep in their forever home.

Cody remembers Rachel’s entrance mo- ment clearly; he said that he could see his entire future standing before him. He had never really thought about his wed- ding day growing up, but in that instant, he said that his dreams came true.

The main goal for Rachel and Cody was keeping their day simple and classy. They didn’t want a lot of color or rentals. In- stead, they used the white linens provid- ed by the venue. The table centerpieces were created using candles and greenery. Rachel loved the fireplace inside the country club, so the florist highlighted it with a beautiful swag of greenery and flowers. Their simple approach meant that the entire look was very cohesive.
