A Very Special Weekend At Worthing Court!
Celebrating my daughter’s wedding has been the highlight of my weekend!
We had a very special weekend here at Worthing Court! My latest DIY project, isn’t really a project at all. Well…at least it isn’t a project of mine. 😀
We celebrated the marriage of my daughter here at my house on Saturday and this mama’s heart couldn’t be happier! It was a very small, intimate affair with only immediate family in attendance, but it was oh, so sweet and special. If you’re interested and you’d like a little peek into my life, scroll down for a few pictures from the day. If not, come back tonight for the Scoop link party or on Wednesday for more DIY projects!
The day started out with all the girls getting ready together and lots of picture taking of the stunning bride in her dress.
When I was working on my dining room makeover, who knew that one day, with a little furniture rearranging, it would be the setting of a very special wedding cake cutting?!?
We were all thrilled with the beautiful wedding cake! Julie wanted something very sweet and simple and I think this fits the bill perfectly. If you look closely, you can see their rings in one of the roses on top. For anyone who is local to Greensboro, NC and is curious, the cake is from Maxie B’s Bakery.
The dining room table was set up as a buffet with all sorts of finger foods and snacks.
This little imp was my helper with the chocolate covered strawberries.
The Valentine’s Day shelves in my breakfast area made the perfect backdrop for the celebratory occasion.
Never in my wildest dreams, did I imagine that my office would be the scene of a my own daughter’s marriage license signing!
There were many joyful tears shed during the ceremony. It has to be one of the sweetest that I’ve ever witnessed.
And just like that – a new little family.
The cake cutting by candlelight was a perfect ending to the day! Thankfully, the bride and groom mostly behaved themselves when feeding the cake to each other. lol
Thank you for stopping by today and for sharing in our family’s happiness!
Thanks for sharing. Love the simple in the wedding. This is as beautiful as some thousand of dollar ceremonies I have seen even better. Congrats to all. I actually was married in Reno with a 5 min ceremony 30yrs ago… Picked out a inexpensive prom dress for my wedding dress. It worked.
Thank you for including your readers in such a sweet snapshot of your very special day! Congrats! You have a beautiful family!
Oh Suzy what a perfect and intimate wedding and everything looked perfect. That cake is just beautiful. The buffer was as well. What a beautiful memory in your new home! Thanks for sharing your family’s special day with us.
SO happy you shared this great day full of blessings and love with all of us, Suzi !!!!!
Congratulations to you and your daughter. The wedding looked wonderful and your family is just lovely!
That is wonderful, so glad the bride and groom were responsible and didn’t waste a small fortune on a fancy overdone wedding. We are celebrating our 45th anniversary this year and know we did the right thing by not overspending….even back in 1972.
Everything was beautiful–thank you for sharing! Many years of love and happiness to the newlyweds and their sweet family!
That was so special
This is what I’ve wanted for my own daughter. How great to welcome family into your home. And the cake! It’s so beautiful. I’m thinking of visiting NC just so I can go to Maxie B’s Bakery.
Congratulations to the happy family!
Such precious moments and memories your home holds. Congratulations and God bless you and your family. Thank you for sharing with us.
I just saw this for the first time. How absolutely perfect!! Your thoughtfully remodeled home made such a perfect backdrop for this precious occasion. God bless the new couple!
so sweet and I think weddings done at home not only save tons of money but are so much more personal. This one looks lovely…congrats.
Belated congratulations to your entire family on your daughter’s marriage – they look so happy! The cake was beautiful, and reminded me of my daughter’s wedding cake!
All happy wishes for your family!
Having just hosted a bridal shower at my home, I love seeing this beautiful wedding in yours. The attention to all the details was just perfect. Sweet family photo at the end too!
Wishing, everyone, Health, Happiness, Love & Laughter
Blessings from, Grammy xo
Just a beautiful family!! Love the dress and cake and buffet. Can you tell me the name of the paint color in your dining room? Elegant!!
Hi Karen. The walls are painted with Sherwin Williams Accessible Beige, with the exception of the planked wall, which is painted with Sherwin Williams Extra White. 😀
Just beautiful Susie! Thanks for sharing. Congratulations and Best Wishes to all!
Beautiful. Small weddings are the best. The cake was lovely. Congratulations to the family, and Thank you for sharing.
What a precious family event! Nowadays when things so easily escalate to over-the-top venues, flowers, dresses, etc., It is so dear to see a sweet simple sharing of this life event. Thank you for sharing –feel like I was actually there! Blessings all around.
Thank you for sharing photos of the happy occasion. Your daughter is beautiful and your home looked lovely, as well. Wishing your daughter and new son-in-law many years of happiness!
