carrie + eric got married at the beautiful john's river valley camp near blowing rock.  when i say "near" blowing rock, I mean 11 miles straight down a very bumpy dirt road.  this is in the sticks folks, no cell phone service, the whole nine yards.  i think you could officially call this place "down in the holler".  it was the perfect place to get away from it all and hang out with friends and family... and since carrie is an art director it became the swankiest camp around!  this girl knows how to get the details right!

all the kids (young and old) had a great time playing in the river on the morning of the wedding

i couldn't resist taking this shot! 

susan johnson smith ( susan-johnson@triad.rr.com) did the reception decor and it was amazing!  if anyone is looking for a stylist she's your girl!  we also want to give a shout out to the farmer's wife who did an amazing job on the flowers- and to sweet basils (basilandmelon@yahoo.com) who kept us fed all weekend.  the food was delicious and they make a mean potato salad!

i love this shot of carrie's dad 

thanks guys!  we had an awesome time!
