Justine and Chris just arrived home from their honeymoon and I cant wait to share the highlights from their lingrow farm wedding! (You might recognize them, (and their dog, Camo) from their fall engagement photos we shared back in November). All week leading up to the wedding we watched the weather while Mother Nature changed her mind back and forth about what season it was outside. While the first few reports called for three days of rain before Saturday, by the end of the week the outlook was much better! We ended up enjoying spring weather in the morning and then a snowstorm after dark. It wasn’t the warmest of days, but their outdoor ceremony went off without a hitch! Here are some highlights from their April 2nd wedding at lingrow farm!
All of the ladies looked fantastic in matching silk robes when we arrived at the farmhouse.
Camo even got dressed up in a doggie tuxedo for the big day!
The farmhouse at Lingrow offers a lot of beautiful spaces to get ready in with great lighting. It really makes a difference for photos.
This was the look on the girls’ faces when they all saw Justine for the first time in her wedding dress coming down the stairs.
No wonder, she was a glowing with happiness on her wedding day!
The guys got ready in the carriage house on the property. Chris’ Dad helped him into his jacket. All of the groomsmen received personalized pocket knives as their gift for being a part of the wedding.
Camo was ready to go when it was time to line up for the ceremony.
The wind was cold but the sun came out from behind the clouds for the ceremony!
Leah the horse had her fuzzy winter fur on when she picked Chris and Justine up from their ceremony and took them for a short ride before photos.
People don’t always believe me, but dogs smile for my camera. I love that more couples are making their four legged family members a part of their wedding day!
Chris and Justine braved the cold wind for outdoor photos and we finished up just as the rain started.
We liked this spot by the spring house because it gave us some shelter from the wind!
Inside the barn, the tables were decorated with pink and white spring flowers and each centerpiece represented one of the couple’s favorite locations.
Instead of lighting a unity candle (outdoor ceremonies make candle lighting a real challenge), Chris and Justine chose to write letters to one another and seal them in a box with a bottle of wine that they can open on their anniversary and enjoy while they read the letters.
The rain changed over to snow after dark, and we were so happy we had gotten the ceremony and all the photos done earlier!
The lingrow farm wedding photobooth is always a big hit with the guests!
Happy first week of married life! And here’s to many happy anniversaries to come !
These are amazing! You did such a great job! Can’t wait to see the rest!
The most beautiful pictures! I can’t thank you enough, Amanda, for capturing every precious moment of my wedding day.
