Erika and Dakotah are Married!! A Rustic Beach themed Wedding at Harley’s Haven in Windsor Virginia!

Did you know that Erika even saved my life once?  I won’t go into details, but it involves a few too many beers one evening and a box of fund-raising Krispy Kreme doughnuts delivered bright and early…just when I needed them most!  🙂  I have known Erika since she was in Elementary school. She was always smiling and full of joy.  I watched her grow into a beautiful young Woman throughout the years, and was so excited when she asked me to be a part of her wedding day at Harley’s Haven in Windsor Virginia.  Erika and Dakotah are great for one another.  They laugh easily, adore one another, challenge each other, enjoy doing lots of the same things together and both have so many people that love them.  It was great to be able to be a part of their wedding, watching all of their loved ones celebrate such a joyous occasion together.  Thank you two for allowing me to be a part of your wedding!  I had a blast!  Can’t wait to see what the future holds for you!  XOXO!
