In October we flew down to Statesville, NC for our Southern Wedding reception. We decided to have this reception back when we were planning our wedding since we knew that it would be difficult for some folks to make the long trek up to Philly. It had originally been scheduled for June… then August… and then we finally booked our flight for October, so it had to happen. It was a fun weekend, minus the fact that our flight to NC was delayed by 3 hours, so we didn’t get to Jay’s parents house until 3am!
Thanks to everyone who came! It was great seeing y’all!

Nice autumn-y decorations, thanks to Jay's mom
