I was very excited to work with Olivia and Nick on their most special day. When I walked in and saw the cowboy boots next to her dress I knew we were kindred spirits for sure. All of the girls had the most spectacular of boots but Olivia's were a true crafted work of art. The groom's brother officiated the ceremony which went off perfectly. For portraits we gathered in the front lawn and used their couple's antique truck in a lot of the photos, it was their first big purchase together and bought specifically with the wedding in mind.
One of my favorite things about ChickBerry Farms in Laurel, DE is all of the different picturesque spaces around outside and they are mostly shaded or have shade available to them. This is important during portraits and photos to keep people from squinting and during dinner when guests were finishing up I was able to take a walk around outside and photograph families and couples hanging out together. I loved the lighting coming through the property and used a lot of their native decor in photographs. Robin & Melinda do an amazing job of keeping the parties going and guests happy, the property is a dreamscape for rustic country weddings with flair. Once Nick & Olivia's party kicked in there was dancing and a very festive shoe game round in which the couple were quite in sync with their answers. Another very unique trait of this wedding was Melinda from ChickBerry Farms was actually in the wedding at their venue. How special for her and the couple to share the experience together. Following sunset photos and cake the couple partied with friends and danced the night away.
Congratulations Nick and Olivia, we wish you a lifetime of happiness <3
