Merdie and John Roger’s wedding day at Harley’s Haven was family oriented in every detail and every moment of their wedding day. Their family is incredibly important to them! Merdie’s sister was her matron of honor, and John Roger’s best man was his father. Merdie’s brother was also in the bridal party and could be the one who gets credit for this day happening. John Roger met Merdie through his friendship with her brother, and though he may have not loved the idea at first of his baby sister dating someone he clearly came around and gave such a heartfelt toast to the both of them on their wedding day!

Harley’s Haven is close to where Merdie and all her friends and family grew up, so it’s no wonder she loved the fields there and selected a country style dinner from Virginia Diner. They celebrated at their reception with so much dancing and a sparkler exit at the end where John Roger spun Merdie around and kissed her! Congratulations to Merdie and John Roger!
