Red Barn Wedding (pt. 1)

My niece and her fiance'   married Sunday, June 24.     Amys dad  made all of the barbeque for 200 people  , there was  cole slaw, green beans and Miranda and I  made macaroni salad.  Many deserts were brought by various friends and family members.  Fresh fruit   ---    Oh yeah -and a  Cherry coke bar



  The venue was in Maidens Va. at the Adams International school .     Beautiful setting.   EVERYONE had a wonderful time.  

 

Above pic is the school directly across from the red barn.   The food was prepared in the kitchen here.
The window boxes had such pretty flowers planted.
