Bill & Erin, September 10th 2011, Fern Hall Inn
Congratulations to Erin and Bill who were married on September 10th 2011. (09/10/11) The wedding and the reception were held on the grounds of Fern Hall Inn located on a summit within Pennsylvania's Endless Mountains near Crystal Lake.
Celtic Cross, a pop/folk band steeped in Irish tradition from New York City, kept Erin and Bill's guests moving their feet on the dance floor during the whole reception. Additional images form this wedding can be seen here on facebook.

Hand Deliver Press
I stumbled upon the website for Hand Deliver Press, a great little printing service that can create custom invitations for any event, especially your wedding. The website provides the following information
Hand Deliver Press started in 2010 and is run by Samantha & Matt.
Located in the Scranton area of Northeastern Pennsylvania, we are a small run press with big ideas.
The platen press we use at Hand Deliver is an Old Style Chandler & Price Pilot. A sturdy little turn-of-the-century cast-iron beast, our Pilot is great for small runs of invitations, business cards, birthday cards, hey, hope you’re enjoying your new baby/house/marriage cards, and anything else you can think of. We can hand set your project using our collection of lead type, but if you have a design in mind, or would like us to come up with one for you, we can have a photopolymer plate made with pretty much whatever your heart desires.
Browse through the samples on their website. I thought these coasters would be a great personalized addition to any wedding.
Hartley Studio
These elegant rings were hand crafted for a couple by my friend, Ann Hartley. I was only too happy to suggest her work to the couple who were not happy with the ring options they found at traditional jewelers. Decisions are made by the bride and groom for every other aspect of their wedding, so it seems only obvious that they be able to weigh in on the one part of their wedding that they will carry with them for the rest of their time together. Ann worked closely with the couple to be sure their every expectation was met. Additional wedding bands from Ann's etsy store can be seen here, but I encourage you to visit all of the items she has on etsy. Ann describes these rings as "flat on the outside and rounded on the inside for comfort. These bands are substantial and are carved from a solid piece of sterling silver, there is no seam. Solder seams can become brittle over time and crack, not a good thing for a band you will be wearing every day. They are also made from a die struck silver which is harder than a cast wedding band. These are made to last a lifetime, just like your marriage!"
