The cabins of Cades Cove and a wedding in a field.
It was unexpected to witness a wedding but it was delightful seeing it.
I was not able to get a close shot and did not want to take away from their moment so it is a far away shot.
I have used Gritty Effect on some of these images.
Not that the cabins are not rustic to begin with.
Our own CC peeking out of the porch.
I think having a porch was a luxury for a resident of Cades Cove.
Do you see the wedding?
I tried not to disturb them but it was a charming setting for a wedding.

We visited Cades Cove when I was a little girl. Unfortunately, the only thing I remember about that stop was the car sickness I was suffering!!!! lol I had that a lot on road trips in the Smoky Mountains... Love to see these pics. Sweet.
ReplyDeleteI think I could be just fine reading a book in that cabin!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful spot for a wedding.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures and so nice with a wedding.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures Olive and so is your family! Enjoy your day, Gail
ReplyDeleteOlive my husband and I were in Cades Cove about 2 weeks ago (we love it there)and saw a wedding as well, how funny if you and I were there at the same time. I always have the feeling I'm "home" when we are there if that makes sense. Love your pictures and your blog. Hope you have a great day. :)

ReplyDeleteOh Olive, the cabins and fields are so beautiful!... and what an enchanted place to have a wedding... in that photo, you placed your "Olive Out" on the mountain and it looks like it was always there... really on the mountain... you know how they used to put the letter of a town on the hillside?... thanks for sharing, just lovely!... xoxo Julie Marie
ReplyDeleteOh Olive. I love all these photos...the rustic cabins, the wooden fence, the wild flowers, your family. Just beautiful and what a great place for a wedding.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty setting for a wedding. The wooden fence shot is gorgeous. Looks like the perfect playing around with your camera.
ReplyDeleteLove all the photos. Nice to see the wedding too. Your daughter looks so sweet. Joe has the doggie in control. Smiles, xo, Susie
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful! I love the photos of the cabin and the old wood gate. Lovely!

Did see one bear but my photo was not not good. CC got a good shot of him.
DeleteBrilliant pictures. I love the one of your daughter peeking through the cabin window.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely brilliant shots!
ReplyDeleteOlive my firt time here to your blog and am very impredded with the subjects you choose to photograph! Good job!!
ReplyDeleteHow sweet to stumble upon such a scene. This looks like the area where my nephew and his wife were married. It was similar anyway, and what a gorgeous setting. Love all the gritty shots of the cabins. Sigh. Would be nice to be wandering around a place like this.

Olive, your photos are amazing. That first shot is my favorite!
ReplyDeleteThose are some amazing photos Olive. Great photography on the beautiful old wood and home. Since I don't see any building near the wedding party I suppose the bride had to walk aways...
ReplyDeleteYou have a lovely family.
Such beautiful old buildings! We don't see that hoary finish very often. Gorgeous. Your photos are wonderful. And what a magnificent setting for a wedding! Somebody did something right. You all look like you're having a nice time!
ReplyDeleteReally cool cabins! Love how Joe is keeping Shelly "in place":@)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. I enjoyed the wedding scene very much. It reminds me of hiking one fall and coming across a wedding rehersal near an old barn on our trail. Unexpected and pleasant sights.
ReplyDeleteGet Out! You were there! One of our best family vacations included Cade's Cove - I adored it! We rode horses - my husband's was so small his feet almost touched the ground and my baby girl had THE BIGGEST horse there - the gentlest! Lots of fun - we also stayed at a Georgia National Park - Cloudland Canyon - it is beautiful. Adored your pictures - brought back memories,

Beautiful photos of the cabins.
ReplyDeleteI noticed everyone was following the bride in the field....
Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful, Olive! I think the cabins are so special. CC is looking great, as usual! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteCades Cove is my favorite place on earth! When I lived in Knoxville years ago, it was a monthly venture. So pretty and peaceful. I must get back there when I visit my folks in Ashevlle..pretty photos
