Sharing the Exclusive Use Capon Wedding Experience

Today we welcome our first “guest” blogger... Leah Rudolph!  Although Leah and her family have been coming to Capon for many years, last weekend was a very special visit for them.  Leah shares her experiences from this visit when her daughter and (now!) son-in-law were married at Capon during an exclusive use weekend...
