Amy & David married at Lake Lure

Memorial Day weekend, like other holidays, is always a very popular time for destination weddings. This certainly makes it easier for guests traveling from out of town.
Lake Lure is one of my favorite places to visit so I was very pleased when Amy and David asked me to officiate their wedding ceremony at Rumbling Bald Resort. They had hoped to marry at the lakeside gazebo but the weather had other plans. Amy and David didn't let a little rain dampen their spirits. They just moved their ceremony to the patio. Just one of the many advantages of getting married at Rumbling Bald.

Although they had hoped for an outdoor ceremony, the patio still offered a beautiful view of Lake Lure. The bridal party entered to the lovely sounds of a bagpiper and this set the stage for a beautiful ceremony that began with a reading, 'The Irrational Season' by Madeleine L’Engle:

Ultimately there comes a time when a decision must be made.
Ultimately two people who love each other must ask themselves how much they hope for as their love grows and deepens, and how much risk they are willing to take.....

Another happy couple begin their new life together. Wishing you happiness always!
