The variety, found mainly in the south, has been called a "kissing cousin" of the crabapple. 10 of 11 The Departure Greg and Maggie (who changed into a Modcloth dress for the getaway) got a dazzling send-off from sparkler-wielding well-wishers. 11 of 11 Sources Location: Fair Weather Farms (770-207-4557) Event Planning and Decor: Simply Charming Socials Catering and Cake: Five and Ten Flowers and Event Design: Amy Osaba Event Floral Design Letterpressing: Printerette Press Photography: Heidi Geldhauser of Our Labor of Love Music: The Packway Handle Band Gown and Veil: Robert Bullock Bride Hair and Makeup: Raney O'Keefe Was this page helpful?
