Yesterday evening I had the privilege of marrying Brittany & Keith high above beautiful Albemarle County with Jim of Blue Ridge Balloon Co. flying their beautiful rainbow-colored balloon. After a lot of waiting to see if the wind would subside enough for a safe flight we finally flew away from a small field right near the Boar’s Head Inn. Once we got up to a cruising altitude of about 1500 ft. we did their little ceremony and then enjoyed the rest of the flight viewing the peak autumn foliage below and a magnificent sunset. Congratulations to Keith & Brittany and thanks so much to Jim & Liana of Blue Ridge Balloon Company for a flawless flight!
While waiting for our pilot to determine whether the winds would allow us to take off I took Brittany & Keith over by the lake to take a few photos.
Our pilot, Jim, gave Keith and Brittany the scoop on what to expect during the flight and how to prepare for landing.

Smooth landing in a beautiful field just at sunset.
