Sarah is from Birmingham, Alabama, but she’s a world traveler – which is how she met Henry, who is English. Since they made friends all over the world, and Henry’s family was based in the UK, most of the guests would have to travel for the wedding, no matter where it took place. Sarah’s family has had a cabin in Cashiers, North Carolina for years, so she already had an affinity for the area. With the help of the team at Invision Events<\/a>, they decided that Lonesome Valley<\/a> was the perfect place to celebrate!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sarah’s Martina Liana<\/a> dress had the prettiest lace back with a long line of tiny covered buttons. As a nod to his roots and his new life in the States, Henry wore cufflinks that were half American flag, half UK flag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maid of Honor Tullia’s medical school graduation ceremony was scheduled for the day of the wedding, but she skipped it to be there for Sarah – talk about a ride or die kind of friend! The ribbon on Sarah’s bouquet was fabric taken from her mother’s wedding dress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The reception was held in and around Canyon Kitchen<\/a>, the restaurant within the Lonesome Valley community. They also catered dinner for the event, served family style. The featured cocktail was Pimm’s Cup<\/a>, a classic British favorite. Henry gave an epic toast that brought the house down – he announced he had purchased one square foot of land in Scotland. Why? Because as landowners, that officially made Sarah and Henry a “Lord” and “Lady”!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I had no idea Henry was a musician until this happened. Turns out Henry has some mad drumming skills, so the band let him jump in for a song, and he KILLED it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
