Kitchen & Garden Party

The Red Oak Fillin Station served as a perfect backdrop for this Kitchen & Garden Party.

Brad's aunt Sandy selected this venue with our vintage rustic wedding theme in mind. 

Guests enjoyed flavored tea in mason jars and warm cobbler topped with vanilla ice cream reminiscent of a true Ice Cream Social. 

The hostesses gave a beautiful Cynthia Rowley watering can with garden tools. It was filled with fresh flowers from Texas and fresh rosemary from Pam's garden that filled the room with a wonderful aroma. There was also a cardinal hanging in the arrangement, a sweet memento of Brad's grandmother Willa.

Although this is not the best picture of me, it is one of my favorites from the shower!  My sister Rachel is sitting next to me (She has been married for seven years and is expecting a little boy in December).  Refrigerator dishes are these amazing vintage glass dishes that sometimes came inside your new fridge back in the day.  I have wanted a set of these forever. Apparently Rachel did too :)  Thanks so much to my Mammaw, I will treasure these always!

Like the true gentleman that he is, Brady showed up to haul all the gifts.  We received so many wonderful things and are thankful to have so many loving people support us as we venture into the next chapter of our lives!
