I love the details of Amy's dress! Check out the beautiful lace shawl that was Amy's mothers, handmade and worn at her own wedding. Amy's mom passed away a couple of years ago, and I love the way the photo to the right speaks - there is no doubt she was at this special day in spirit.![Moonlight Couture wedding dress details mansion inn](https://image11.photobiz.com/5762/28_20160105142259_3906582_large.jpg)

Up next were some beautiful wedding details. The rings below were her maternal Grandmother's and maternal Great-Grandmother's rings from their wedding day. The handkerchief was a gift from her Great-Aunt to her cousin, who then gifted it to Amy. Such great history at this wedding!

So this photo has a silly little story with it... Throughout the day, they were doing photos with the best man Doug in the background... He may have made a cameo in a few of our photos too. :)

Time to tie the knot!
The beautiful arch was handmade by a friend from Colorado - it was the perfect addition to the ceremony!

The flowers sat in the chair her mother would have used at the ceremony. Gone, but never forgotten.![wedding ceremony details the mansion inn](https://image7.photobiz.com/4695/28_20160105142556_3906633_large.jpg)
