The Champagne Cellar in the Winery on the Biltmore Estate in Asheville, North Carolina provided the perfect setting for PJ and Melissa's wedding. Originally from Indiana, PJ and Melissa now reside in Charlotte.
Their intimate destination wedding -- accented by candlelight -- was a great event witnessed by friends and family that traveled to Asheville from Indianapolis, Chicago, Fort Wayne, Terre Haute, New York, and Ohio. The poem, "Love's Philosophy" by Percy Shelly, was read by both moms - Lynne and Beth. PJ and Melissa wrote their own beautiful vows and began each set of vows with the words, "I love you because...." The exchange of rings provided a special moment as the wedding couple chose to use the words used in Melissa's parents wedding ceremony nearly 30 years ago. The ceremony closed with PJ reading the poem, "A Dedication to My Wife" by T.S. Eliot, to his beautiful wife, Melissa. The wedding was captured through the amazing photography talents of Cori Anderson.
It was a beautiful ceremony and one that was filled with lots of well wishes from family. PJ and Melissa - best to you as you share your lives together! I was honored to be a part of your special day! Best to you in your journey! Enjoy life!
