This is a love that was written in the stars! The bride, Ashlyn, shares the background for this astronomy themed Running Hare Vineyards Wedding from Emily Chastain Photography. “I’ve always loved astronomy – I was an astrophysics TA back in college and I still love to stargaze. Aaron knew this when he proposed – he spelled out “Marry Me” with glow-in-the-dark stars! Naturally, astronomy made for the perfect theme for our wedding, both nerdy and romantic! Aaron’s wedding band is actually made out of a meteorite, and I carried two small meteorites as my “something old” (they’re as old as the solar system, what could bring me more luck?!). When we first visited Running Hare Vineyard, with its striking outdoor setting amidst the vines, we knew immediately it would be the ideal spot for our starry wedding. Aaron and I had such an amazing day celebrating with our friends and family, I could not imagine a better wedding!”
