Jen, Richard and The Avett Brothers!

We photographed a great wedding in Blowing Rock last weekend. Jennifer and Richard and about 150 of their friends and relatives gathered at the beautiful Chetola Mountain Resort in Blowing Rock, NC to celebrate Jen and Richard's wedding and party to some amazing music! The Avett Brothers played two great sets and even came back for an encore! I've photographed over 200 weddings and that is the FIRST time a band at a wedding has been called back for an encore! Of course, these guys don't normally do weddings. . .they are becoming very popular and are selling out larger venues all over the country. Their music is a mixture of old-time country, bluegrass, pop melodies, folk, rock n' roll, honky-tonk and ragtime but mainly it's just foot-stompin' hot! A good time was had by all, best of luck and happieness to Jen and Richard!
