Allyson and Lonnie attended the same high school and began dating in the summer of 2017. “I think we both knew pretty early on that we would like to get married. Lonnie proposed on our one-year anniversary at our house. We decided to wait a little over two years to get married as I was finishing college and pursuing my CPA license.”
120 guests, including three bridesmaids, three groomsmen, two flower girls, and two ring bearers, attended the couple’s October nuptials. “Our wedding ceremony was on private property overlooking the Potomac River in Knoxville, Maryland. It had a breathtaking backdrop. The ceremony itself was short and sweet and during the ceremony, we recited traditional vows and put together a unity cross.”
The reception also took place on the family friend’s farm. “We are extremely grateful that they allowed us to use their property. They have an absolutely gorgeous event barn that overlooks the Potomac River. It was not your typical backyard wedding.”
The couple chose fall colors for their decor and had a moonshine fountain during the reception. “It was just a relaxed night spending time with our friends and family.”
Lonnie is a beef cattle farmer and Allyson is an accountant. They reside in Boonsboro.
