Hi, I am with Town Hall.
We publish a monthly welcome Town Hall Guide that is mailed weekly to all new residents as they move into your community.
Our Welcome Guide is going to feature only one exclusive business inside each category, and I am searching for a Chiropractor in your area to fill that spot.
I would like to schedule a time when you are expecting me so that I may drop off a sample of our "Welcome Kit" and explain the program in greater detail.
Please message me or for immediate assistance, feel free to call or text me on my cell which is listed below.
Thanks.

The Blueberry Muffins are the BOMB!! Best, yet!
LOVED the Coconut Hazelnut Coffee -
Sara Ehle and Kyle Ehle had the kind of wedding party that to be honest, I'm envious of. You know those people who have a huge group of friends who have known one another forever and they all were present for the 'Remember When' stories. I'm the kind of person who loves getting to know my people on a deep level, the little things that make them who they are and Sara & Kyle have those kinds of friends in spades.
They put so much thought into the uniqueness of their wedding day. Their ceremony venue The Tabernacle made the perfect back drop for their vows with it's one of a kind structure and chandelier lighting. It was the first wedding I've done in fifteen years where the bride and groom were introduced FIRST so that THEY could give the introductions of their bridal party and I absolutely loved this touch. Next came a photo dash which I probably should have trained my cardiovascular system for because when you're trying to get a photo of the bride and groom at each table holding their 350+ guests in one song....well, it makes the heart rate go up let me just say that. :) And finally, a flash mob choreographed by Sara's sister! Wedding party, family and friends from all over the country practiced together remotely to create an unforgettable kick off to the party for Sara and Kyle. When I say their people are all in, they are ALL. IN.
And of course, the reason for the day....a love story. I think the moments I really saw the connection between them was during their first dance. Both of them had their eyes closed at one point and had nearly the exact same expression of love and completeness on their faces. It was the lovers version of when friends jinx each other for saying the same thing at the same time.
Even though they had a large guest list, it didn't feel like a crowd of strangers or people invited just for the sake of a big party. It felt like the small town "everybody knows everyone and we're one big family" kind of gathering. Family stories were reminisced, new memories were made, talks of the future were had and all because two people fell in love.
Congratulations Mr. & Mrs. Ehle!

Maria + JP are married!
I wrapped up my 2021 wedding season with these two, and it couldn't have been a better wedding to end with!
On a gorgeous December afternoon, they pledged their life and love to one another, then celebrated with an amazing reception with their family and friends!
We had the most stunning golden light during their portraits, so while they had to endure the cold, they will have beautiful photos to treasure. I *may* have not been able to stop gushing about how pretty the light was.
I had the best day with these two and their wonderful families. I can't wait to share more about their day and more photos from their wedding soon.
Cheers to the new Mr. + Mrs. Thomas! 🎉

Hello, I just stopped by to say that the peach pie with the crumble topping I bought the last time I was in was OUT OF THIS WORLD! It was so good! I loved the cherry pie too but the peach was my favorite. There wasn't time to take any pictures. It was gone too fast! Just wanted to leave you a little "sunshine
and say thank you. We'll be coming to see you on Saturday!

I have been so excited to preview Eric and Carrie's wedding!! Their day was absolute perfection. The morning was spent with the girls getting ready in the most darling cottage on the property of Red Barn Acres . You guys, this venue is amazing, I would argue one of THE most spectacular places I have ever photographed in over 400 weddings. Not one single detail has been overlooked by Becky. Everything has been carefully curated for the most romantic vibe for a wedding day. I really could do an entire post just about the venue but if you are planning a wedding or any type of event and wish for a country type setting, you absolutely must go see it.
For Eric and Carrie's wedding day, it was just a dream. From an intimate first look, a spectacular wedding party to dancing the evening away underneath market lights and a gorgeous sunset, I couldn't have ordered a more perfect day for them had I spoken with the Lord Himself.
Wishing the newly named Mr. & Mrs. the most happiest of ever afters in your new life together.

A special thank you to some of my favorite dudes to hang with for receptions at Live The Night Entertainment who provided music for the ceremony as well as fantastic entertainment for the reception.
And Becky along with her staff at Red Barn Acres for being such gracious hosts and putting such care and effort into their venue and grounds of the property.
