Ashley & Rob ~ April 17, 2011

One of the groomsmen pictured here is Travis, who's wedding to Gigi (one of the bridesmaids) we photographed waaaaay back in 2003...now it is his little sister Ashley's turn to walk down the aisle! She and Rob tied the knot on the front lawn of the historic Rhodes Hall in midtown.

The great thing about Ashley was that she could nail the serious expressions, but also be sassy!

Rob got this watch from Ashley and he gave her the cross necklace she's wearing in these photos. 
They also took a moment to read cards from each other right before the ceremony:

Ashley's grandfather played trumpet along with the tunes all evening - he was awesome!! 
It added a Louis Armstrong touch to each song that was played.
