This wedding was extra special for me…the bride is one of my most favorite yoga instructors! I attend her class at the Asheville Yoga Center as frequently as possible. Matt is just as wonderful as Candra is, and their wedding was a sweet celebration that I could not have been happier to be a part of. Thanks to Ashley Felkel Photography for preserving this incredible day so beautifully!

Sherrill’s Inn is brimming with history. It’s a unique and amazing place just near Hickory Nut Gap Farm, and I love every minute I get to spend there! This original mural, adorning the walls of one of the rooms on the first floor, was painted by a relative of Annie Ager’s, and tells the story of the early years.

The flowers were as local as they come, grown just down the road at Flying Cloud Farm. We gathered even more tiger lillies from the property for an extra punch of bright orange!

The ceremony was sheltered from the drizzle under cover of a thick canopy of leaves over the tennis lawn. The moss added to the protective, healthy, and romantic feel that the space lends. Raja Yoga teacher and Vedic astrologer, Ryan Kurczak, officiated.

The Smith family: Candra, Matt and Shiloh

In lieu of take home favors, the couple planted an apple tree in their guests’ honor.

Dinner that evening was a delicious spread of Indian food, lovingly prepared by a friend of Candra and Matt’s, Jody Davis.

It’s hard to resist Short Street Cakes! There was a variety of flavors offered for tasting…

Super fun tunes from the Trainwreks!
