Vermont wedding: Rehearsal dinner
My dear readers, this spring, I'm excited to feature few lovely, simple weddings of my friends. First up was Billy and Fanny's city hall wedding, and now I'd love to share Gemma and Andy's amazing Vermont wedding. Here's their rehearsal dinner...
The night before their wedding, the couple hosted a BBQ at South Pond in Vermont. "I grew up swimming there," Gemma says, "so I was excited that people swam!" Badminton was also set up in the field nearby.
After a refreshing dip, guests enjoyed chicken, ribs and sides from the local barbecue restaurant Top of the Hill Grill, followed by pies for dessert from Amy's Bakery. (Yum.)
The picnic tables were decorated with vintage floral tablecloths from the 1950's that Gemma had thrifted. And don't you love the wildflowers in Mason jars? Such a pretty touch!
Tomorrow, I'll post about their wedding day... (Congratulations, Gemma and Andy!) xoxo

oh lordy. love.
SO sweet and SO true. Real. love it.
Vermont rules.
You couldn't ask for better scenery than that!
Very sweet -- reminds me of my rehearsal dinner, except with more pretty things! :)
This is so pretty and laid back. I absolutely love it and am looking forward to seeing their wedding, as well:)
Great.
More proof that love is everywhere.
But I just can't seem to find it myself.
Wow.
Everything about this Rehersal Dinner is pure greatness.
I love the tables, settings, food ideas, swimming and games!
If their Rehersal Dinner was this amazing, what was their wedding like?!
WOW!
yes, and the wedding is up next, amynicole! :) xoxo
aw, wallflower, i wish you lived in new york, i would set you up :)
I agree - I Adore the wildflowers in mason jars! I think that's exactly what I'll be doing at my reception.
How fun! BBQ's are the best :)
p.s. I love your new blog header!
LOVE your new header!
How pretty! It looks like a lot of fun!
beautiful picnic and beautiful bride!
That picture of those two little girls back to back is the SWEETEST!
How pretty. The thought of having an outdoor reception or rehearsal makes me second guess my decision to go to city hall!
Lovely! I wish we had lakes to swim in around here. And need I mention that Mexican-style, folkloric dress a few pics down? Beautiful!
this is so beautiful. i love the laid-back, real quality to it all.
So sweet--I love the Vermont-y feel. My brother got married in Vermont in his inlaws' backyard--this brings me back to the day. Although regrettably, there was no lake--it was so hot! Lots of wildflowers though. Can't wait to see the wedding pictures!
This is the most lovely, authentic, laid back, gorgeous rehearsal dinner! Love it!
Such a lovely rehearsal dinner!! I love that stripey dress on one of the guests too!! <3
i know, i WISH i could tell you where that gorgeous dress is from! :)
That is the best twist on a rehearsal dinner I've ever heard of! So relaxed. I love it.
Beautiful; they look so happy. Excited to see the wedding photos tomorrow! xoxo
it looks great! great food out in nature with good company....what could be better?

I love relaxed celebrations when everyone enjoys themselves and it is so special that they have an attachment to the place!
I can’t wait for the wedding photos! Great post Joanna :)

Gorgeous. No stress. I would love to know who made her dress.
gorgeous! what a perfect way to relax before the big day! great pictures too :]
ancing branflake, sadly i couldn't go to their wedding because my sister was graduating from med school the same weekend. i was sorry to miss it!
SOOOO amazing! Wish i were there!
I can feel the air in the images. Smell the food. Taste the BBQ. I love how their hair is tossled and pony-ed. It is so casual that it oozes 'chic'. So wonderful. Lovely.
Aw sweet! Vermont is such a beautiful state! I was in an outdoor wedding in New Hampshire, how lovely to have a wedding out there in the open air!
Lovely! I love Vermont :-)
So gorgeous. I love the sweet pea and cosmos arrangements. That shot with the kids and buffet table is gorgeous.
this looks like the funnest rehearsal dinner ever!!! you can just feel the warmth and love leap from these photos. can't wait to see the wedding. :)
p.s. LOVE your new header, gorgeous!
badminton and swimming, heavenly!! what a great idea, i love how active their dinner was, can't wait to see the wedding :)
This is my town! Thanks for posting this because I have some friends who are looking for a wedding photographer and I'm going to email your friends... maybe they would like an excuse to come up for a weekend. Also, my friends are having top-of- the-hill grill bbq as well :) well, its also half vegetarian because the bride is of Indian descent. It should be a very interesting wedding :)
This is so perfect and sweet. I too love the dresses and would love the deets on them. I am loving this series Joanna!
what a beautiful, simple rehearsal dinner. i just love it + the way the sun shines on them. thanks for sharing. xo!
my kind of rehearsal dinner!!
Ah! So fun and beautiful and amazing. And ah! My sis should read your blog...I'm going to tell her :)
HOLY COW!
South pound is about 5 minutes from my college! I go swimming there every spring, ate at top of the hill last week, and amy's bakery makes the best pastries and soup. This is a hilarious colliding of worlds. It's great that their wedding was this weekend, it was super hot and sunny. Even funnier was that I almost went to South Pond this Saturday to dip my feet in!
Such a fun way to celebrate prior to the wedding. And I LOVE
that stripy dress in the second-to-last photo!
such a beautiful setting! natural beauty. very lovely. they seem like a very down-to-earth, happy couple. can't wait to see the wedding day pics!
Looks beautiful!
oh that is such a good way to do it, so relaxing
love the relaxed feel of this rehearsal dinner.
we are doing something like this...but on the beach, in san diego, with a burrito bar and a bonfire.
What an amazing day...but more importantly, why have I not been to Vermont?
makes me want to go swimming and play badminton there too!!!!
Such a fun idea. I'm loving the laid back atmosphere and no fuss at this rehearsal.
I love the last photo - they look so in love! :)
great pictures
What a great joy and nervous you feel during your wedding day. You are going to face your partner in front of the many to promise each other and to become one.
wow, e, that is awesome -- what a small world :) they actually got married a few years ago, though; i'm just featuring the photos after the fact! :)
What a beautiful setting!
love this! I showed it to my bf and said I one just like it.
Very nice and interesting wedding!
This reminds me of summertime camping. how beautiful!
Beautiful! Looks like a perfect setting.
What a blast! This makes me excited for all the weddings I will be attending this summer. I love how weddings are each so different and special, and reflect the couple's personal style.
The couple are gorgeous and it looks like it was a magical day!

what a stunning party...and i'm dying over that striped dress that pretty girl is wearing in the second to the last photo ;-)
xox
you take such classic photos! i love it, I wish I was there!! Looked fun!
these are really wonderful photos...
oh my gosh! i grew up swimming there too - my great-aunt has a summer house down the road. it's wonderful to see these pics! gives me a lump in the throat, since i now live in WA. I'd love to bring my kids to VT this or next summer!
the image of the girls back-to-back is adorable!
this makes my heart flutter. vermont is the most beautiful place...
Wow - love love love the table settings - how gorgeous, rustic and whimsy.
