Cochino Lodge Celebrated the Wedding of Sara Harris and Adam Moore

Families from Timpson, Lufkin and surrounding areas
came to Cochino Lodge to bless the Marriage Vows of Sara Harris  and Adam Moore.
A large Crowd gathered on the West Lawn for the Ceremony and festivities.
Mother of the Bride, Melinda, coordinated the wedding with the Bride's chosen theme
of Vintage. It was Delightful. I could feel the 1950s. The table decor was of Milk Glass and Fire King decanters adorned with flowers made by Melinda Harris. These were hand made of vintage material with covered button centers.  All fabric  patterns reminiscent of the 50s were represented.  Some tables had clear glass ware bottles of the era also.  Glass dinner plates were a vintage collection of the Bride's family with many different patterns. Cake plates as well repesented an array of  patterns and styles. The napkins were made of colorful very old material that were doubled material and sewed perfectly for a large napkin in which the silverware was wrapped and tied with a ribbon.  Old Mason jars with wire handles had candles that lit the way for the ceremony.  It was a true delight and a journey to when many of the guests were young and all their life was ahead of them.  Now everyone was celebrating a new era with vintage memories and great hope for the new couple. 


The Beautiful bride and her bouquet of vintage broaches. The Mother of the bride made the piece of art work and it was unique and so pretty.


Handsome and Happy, the Groom was all smiles




Up close of the vintage broaches, you may have seen these  in the 1950s

The Prayer











So cute, the shoes of another era.


Vintage plaid table runner with crochet and flowers of 1950ish fabric. The Fire King glass ware was so appropriate and a great conversational piece. Everyone was looking to see what they had grown up with. Very interesting.

The Bride's Cake...a cupcake tree with a great idea for the top. A small cake to be taken for the first anniversary  sat atop the tree.

The bar also held an array of cupcakes in vintage plates that sat atop vintage wine glasses turned upside down. A unique idea and it worked.









BridesMaid and flower girl. Dressed to perfection and very pretty.

Another pretty BridesMaid and Flower girl in complimentary colors and very coordinated.



The Groom's Cake table highlighted his interest of cards and poker chips (chocolate)
Well illustrated and delicious with a table runner of green felt. How appropriate.

So soft and pastel. I love it.

Donnie Puckett, conducted the ceremony. He is becoming a regular at Cochino Lodge.
He has an easy manner and great attitude. He puts the couple at ease and includes the audience in his ceremony. 




This group thought of everything.  The young ones had  entertainment set up in the chapel that kept them well entertained. Great Idea.


Matthew and Eric from Nacogdoches & Lufkin-Diboll area  did a great job Photographing
the newly married couple. They have a great eye and novel way about their approach to photography.
