I met Chris and Rachel a few months back with a phone call from a 585 area code. As most of you know, I’m originally from Rochester, NY where everyone has a 585 number. I almost brushed it off as another person calling about a wedding back in Rochester, but wow I’m glad I didn’t. The weird thing was, I actually went to the same school as Rachel, but we didn’t know each other. She was a Greenville native going to school up in Rochester and was actually getting married down here! Small world!

Anyways, Chris and Rachel have an awesome story. They met in Mongolia on a mission’s trip a few years back. They got to spend some time traveling, ministering to the natives, and learning the culture together. The rest is history.

Their wedding day was a dream. Great weather, beautiful church (First Presbyterian Church in Downtown Greenville, SC), intimate ceremony, a beautiful Mongolian song, and some killer karaoke throughout the reception! Thanks so much for having me! Enjoy the photos!

BEAUTIFUL Flowers!

Beautiful reception at the Sawmill in Greenville

This is a first, a Mongolian style house wedding cake!

According to the Mongolian tradition, the bride and groom sing a song to the wedding attendants

Awesome air guitar action!
