Wedding preparations at Chestnut Ridge Resort and Chestnut Spa in Blairsville, PA
Becca and Josh met in high school when Josh started playing baseball on a team that her Dad was coaching. At the time they were just friends and later started dating in college.
The proposal:
“Josh brought me flowers and took me out to dinner one evening. After dinner, he had gifts for me as a “congratulations” for finishing a couple of graduate classes. Before I opened the final gift, he read me a beautiful speech that he had prepared. Then I opened the last gift, and it was a wedding planner/binder. He took out the ring, got down on one knee, and asked me to marry him!”- Becca
I told them to describe each other using three words, here’s what they had to say:
Josh’s response: Becca is loving, sweet, and kind.
Becca’s response: Josh is hard-working, determined, and thoughtful.
If you look closely, you’ll see the cross in the middle of one of the roses in memory of Josh’s sister Dessa! <3
It wouldn’t be a wedding day without hairspray filling the air!
Can we talk about how GORGEOUS the back of her dress is!!!
I love all of the emotions of a wedding day. Earlier she swore she wasn’t going to cry. <3
I think a hand written note on your wedding day is one of the most absolute best gifts anyone can give. In the day of electronic communications, the art of a hand written note just means so much!
She basically walked right out of a bridal magazine! The locket in the image above is one of the gifts Josh gave her before the ceremony.
Thumbs up….time for Dad to see his baby girl!
Cue the water works! This is laughter of having to admit they can’t read what was engraved on the gift because they didn’t have their glasses! haha!
The GORGEOUS bridal party!
It was a little warm…but it didn’t rain. It was a beautiful day for an outdoor ceremony over looking the golf course.
Dad giving away his baby girl! One of my favorite moments!
Because wedding ceremonies don’t have to be so serious!!
Mr. and Mrs. Stoehr!!
Stay tuned for their portraits and reception! There was a whole lot of fun on the dance floor!
