Burying the Bourbon Tradition

Casey and Ryan incorporated the southern tradition of burying the bourbon into their wedding day. A month beforehand, they buried a bottle of bourbon upside down at Veritas Vineyard. During cocktail hour, they dug up the bourbon and passed the bottle around so everyone could drink to good weather and good luck.
