The setting seemed surreal, beneath a canopy of hardwoods on a crisp October afternoon.

Jennifer and Brad were married on October 14, 2006.

Jen's dad escorted her from the Rose Cottage across the bridge that carried them to a group of loving family and friends. The day was perfect.

After the ceremony we all stepped into an adjoining courtyard where we enjoyed a feast! Just inside, the atmosphere was very festive as music filled the air, yet still couldn't drown out the laughter. Toasts were made, tears were spilled, A Longhorn cake was cut and the garter thrown.

It was a sweet occasion that will always be remembered.

Thanks to Butler's Courtyard for providing the rich and elegant surroundings for a new beginning, and for managing the entire occasion so flawlessly.
