Tracey + Stephen. Tot Hill Farm Wedding. Part I.

Yes, the title says “part 1″… when it came down to it, I just couldn’t narrow everything down enough to squeeze it all into one post! Tracey, Stephen, and their coordinator/planner Leigh Pearce put SO much work and heart into this wedding! I couldn’t bear to cut out any of the incredible details, sweet smiles, or emotional moments from this day. So this post covers the early part of the day and the ceremony, the next post (hopefully tomorrow!) will feature all the amazing details from the reception and their super unique grand exit!

Tracey and Stephen both grew up in Randolph county and trekked back from Santa Monica, California to have this destination wedding at Tot Hill Farm in Asheboro. David, from A Sweet Carolina Wedding, second-shot this wedding with me. The whole day was so calm and relaxed. . . it hardly felt like we were working! Stay tuned tomorrow for the reception, some amazing table details and a cake buffet to die for!

I love this photo from David of the dress . . .

The girls got ready at the house on Tot Hill Farm, there were so many cute places to photograph Tracey’s accessories!

Tracey has a wonderful laugh. . .

We found the guys relaxing near the golf course. . .

Looking good, Stephen!                  (photo by David)

Tracey and Stephen chose to do a first look before the ceremony so we had more time to do portraits. . .

Stephen’s dad stopped by to grab a photo for himself. . . so sweet!

I love the pop of that flower on Tracey’s dress. . .

These rocks on the golf course made a perfect setting for a romantic portrait of these two!

This duet played perfectly bluegrass music during the ceremony.

Tracey and her brother were all smiles walking down the aisle. It was such a sweet moment!

I LOVE these few minutes right after the ceremony. Hugs and kisses and high-fives all around!

Natty Greene’s is a true Southern beer, brewed right here in North Carolina!

We took a few more minutes for portraits on the way to join the cocktail hour. Tot Hill is full of little buildings and barns!

Make sure to check back tomorrow for details from the reception, and some really emotional moments during the speeches!
