Dan and Rachel Wed at Biltmore Estate

The Deerpark on the Biltmore Estate in Asheville, North Carolina was the setting for Dan and Rachel's wedding. Having conducted many ceremonies at the Deerpark through the years, I am always amazed at the creativity and the imtimacy of this special place. Nicole Riley of Verge Events (www.vergeevents.net) in Asheville was the master designer of Dan and Rachel's wedding. She is amazing in her creativity and is such a delight to work with. The beautiful wedding music was provided by Allegro Music - a stringed quartet of amazing musicians (www.allegromusicevents.com). One of the blessings of being a part of Dan and Rachel's wedding was being able to share officiant duties with a lifelong friend of Dan's family -- Willis Foster. What a great blessing it was to be a part of Dan and Rachel's wedding! I really enjoyed getting to know you, Dan and Rachel, and I wish you every blessing as you share the journey of life together! Enjoy life!

Kevin and Charity Wed at High Vista

The beautiful panoramic and spectacular view of the High Vista Country Club in Arden, North Carolina was the perfect setting for Kevin and Charity's wedding. Surrounded by a great group of friends and family, the happy couple shared their wedding vows in a very special ceremony. Kevin and Charity live in Florida. I had the blessing of being the pastor to Kevin, his sister Kendra, and his mom Kathy, while at Beverly Hills Church in Asheville. It was a great opportunity to share with them. The beautiful wedding event was coordinated by Jennifer King of Verge Events in Asheville (www.veregeevents.net). She is always a delight to work with and always makes sure that every detail is covered. This was my first wedding at High Vista. I found the staff there to be excellent in their effort to make sure that Kevin and Charity were pampered and cared for in a very special manner. Kevin and Charity, I was blessed to be a part of your wedding! May every joy be yours as you share life together in the years ahead. Enjoy life!

Jason and Maren Marry at Grove Park Inn













The majestic Grove Park Inn in Asheville, North Carolina was the ideal setting for Jason and Maren's wedding. Residing in California, Jason and Maren traveled across the country to celebrate their love and to share their vows. Jason is a project manager specializing in solar energy. Maren recently received her doctorate in clinical psychology. A wonderful group of family and friends from literally across the United States witnessed the intimate wedding on a beautiful June afternoon. Gwenn Ford, owner of Wedding Inspirations (www.weddinginsp.com) in Asheville was fabulous! It is always such a wonderful time to work with Gwenn and her amazing staff! The beautiful wedding music was provided by a classical trio led by Donna Germano (www.classictouchmusic.net). Donna's music is always a blessing and adds so much to the celebration. As if the Grove Park Inn needed any additional beauty, the floral decoration provided by the Flower Gallery (www.flowergalleryasheville.com) were simply stunning. And the staff of the Grove Park Inn (www.groveparkinn.com) made sure that every detail was coordinated and that Jason, Maren, their bridal party and guests were treated with elegance and style. Even though Jason and Maren reside on the west coast, it was a joy to get to know then through phone calls and email. Jason and Maren, you make a great couple and it was a blessing to be a part of your wedding celebration. May you be blessed in countless ways as you share your journey together. Enjoy life!
