Eat, Drink, & Be Married!

My amazing friend Kellie is getting married next spring and I cannot wait! She is going to be the most gorgeous bride. Kellie and I were lucky enough to cross paths riding horses and we’ve continued our friendship for over 15 years. She is the funniest, loving, kind, smart, beautiful soul. Most of us in her wedding party met through horses and I feel like we have this special crazy bond over the love of horses and the way we spent years of our lives showing and caring for our prized possessions. Her bachelorette was the best. Horses, wine, country views…ughh take me back now! We started the trip with a beautiful brunch that her mother made, then we went riding at a farm out in Leesburg, Virginia. Then we had a quite night chatting and eating at the bed and breakfast we rented out which could have not been more perfect for all of us. Zion Springs is absolutely beautiful. Saturday and Sunday morning having breakfast in the owners fabulous home was a real treat. Then we had a full wine tour Saturday and ended the night with an great dinner at the Wine Kitchen in Purceville. Sunday morning we all leisurely packed up after our a brisk walk and breakfast and headed to Middleburg which is the prime historic horse town. After hitting up all our favorite spots for snacks (we indulged WAY too much, thank goodness we have a few months before dresses) it was time to go home 🙁 Can’t wait until spring to start all the wedding events and see this beautiful wedding!

We loved these flannel shirts we got from Old Navy on sale for $12/each and took them to a local monogram shop for $9.50/each! The adorable bandanas…yep handmade by the MOH’s mother. So freakin cute!

This trial ride was so much fun! Our horses names, Rudy, Beatle, Joy, Carpet, and Haley.

Zion Springs Bed & Breakfast. The left side is the owner’s home which is attached the the B&B that hosts 4 suites with a little common area. Amazing deck views, land, and fire pit too!

This donkey was the sweetest little thing.
