Southern Weddings // What a beautiful wedding day for Kindra + Roger! Arriving at the rustic and quite adorable Longstraw Farms in Ayden, NC was such a treat. Sandy, the owner of the farm is such a delight and made this the perfect venue. As soon as you walk up, you are welcomed by the hand calligraphy signs.

The ceremony spot under the grandfather oaks are filled with restored vintage church pews. Under the great oak is a romantic swing which made for a fun photo moment. Walking in a bit further, is Roger’s very own classic 1973 Volkswagen Beetle. This vintage themed classic couple make me swoon. The bride even wore pearls from her great grandmother, which were purchased in Japan by her great grandfather. I knew right away that this was going to be a day to remember. This sweet couple were a joy.

How They Met

Let’s take a look at their love story. Roger’s sister in law, was Kindra’s roommate in college, were they eventually met. They quickly became best friends from the start, where they were friends for a long time before deciding to date.  Kindra fell in love with Roger before she even realized it. It took her by sweet surprise.

Roger asked Kindra to marry him at a Capital Cities/ Bear Hands concert . Yes! was her immediate answer of course. Now here at the beautiful farm to become husband & wife with a farm full of loving witnesses.

This memorable day full of dancing, laughter and funny toasts made for such the celebration. Ending this perfect day was a firework exit and driving off into the sunset in the grooms classic Volkswagen. Enjoy the gallery where as they say, pictures are worth 1,000 words.
