Chrissy & Jenn's Wedding Photos

We got married on August 13th at Birch Hill in Castleton. Everything was perfect. The weather, the setting, the kids, and everything that we had planned came together beautifully. Jenn wanted balloons instead of flowers and her vision came to life. It was such a fun and amazing wedding. We were so grateful to our families and friends that celebrated with us. Here are just a few pictures of the thousand plus that the awesome Dino Petrocelli took. He's the best.
