Kim and Nicholas
Last Saturday was the big day for Kim and Nicholas – they got married at The Birchwood with its beautifully lush and expansive gardens… The morning started out sunny and beautiful; beautiful it stayed… sunny – not so much. But this did not put a damper on the wonderful spirits of Kim and Nicholas. They could not keep their happiness hidden; only smiling allowed! And rain on a wedding day – as we know – means Good Luck!
