Getting Ready

While RJ was finishing up his wedding day look with his groomsmen, Ashton was slipping into her gorgeous dress from Kleinfeld’s in NYC with the help if her mother. She clasped her bracelet on as a final touch to her wedding day look before she was off to have a first look moment with her father.

The Ceremony

Right before Ashton would have her father escort her down the aisle, a fierce feathered friend made his way down the aisle to join RJ’s groomsmen. Sir Big Spur, The South Carolina Gamecock’s favorite Rooster joined this elegant wedding day to make it a special one. After Ashton made her way to meet her groom at the alter, they shared lovely vows, some cries, some shared laughter, and a first kiss to seal the deal
