Saturday, March 12th, 2016, Ashely & Travis began their new lives together as one!  North Carolina, March weather can be a bit "iffy" sometimes.  In years past we've been known to have snow this time of year and other years, the temps have reached into the 80's.  This past Saturday, the weather was perfect, an absolutely beautifully warm day with an absolutely beautiful couple!  They were married in their church with just their closet family members with reception to follow.  Here is a recap of their day!
