I knew from the first time I chatted with them that this was going to be one of the most beautiful weddings days I’d ever been part of. Not just because of the gorgeous details and florals they had planned, but because the intentionality sprung from the love the have for one another and their friends and family. They hired such an amazing team of vendors to carry out the day for them, and it allowed them to be fully present and enjoy each moment of the day fully.
The 1868 Farmhouse has the perfect setup for couples who, like Gabby and Maverick, didn’t want to see one another until their ceremony. Gabby and her girls could hang out in the bridal suite and take photos around the property while Maverick and his guys enjoyed the downstairs accommodations. There wasn’t any awkward hiding around, the day was able to flow smoothly and not feel like a production.
The couple opted to have their ceremony outdoors in front of the farmhouse, and let me just say, mid September is one of the BEST times to plan an outdoor wedding. With a light breeze and the early autumn colors just starting to shine through, it was unbelievable beautiful.
This was such a fun day and I couldn’t be happier for Gabby and Maverick. What an honor it was to photograph their memories!
So many incredible vendors worked together to bring Gabby and Maverick’s wedding day to life!
