Remarks from the photographer: “As we pulled up to the venue it was a beautiful farm with horses, goats, roosters, pigs, and donkeys. Sitting on the edge of Rivercrest Farm was a beautiful 100 year old barn that had been restored for weddings!
“I new the day would be beautiful from the start. Stacey was beaming ear to ear and Jeremiah couldn’t wait to see his Bride. They shared a sweet first look with lots of tears. The bridesmaids wore blush dresses and adorable cowgirl boots. The bride herself had some blue cowgirls boots on for her something blue. The guys wore tan suit pants and light blue shirts.
“The ceremony and reception took place inside the barn. It had chandeliers hanging and beautiful table settings. The day couldn’t have been better.”
