To say we adore Marcy & Bryan (known to his nearest and dearest as Barney), would be an understatement. Our first email from Marcy, listed The Journey Home as her venue. Curiosity over a new venue, some emails and a drive up north led us to meet & fall in love with this charming barn venue & it’s amazing coordinator Laura! So later during our first time meeting Marcy in the office, feeling like long lost friends was only natural. We were over the moon when she emailed us back quickly saying that Barney – who couldn’t make the meeting- said if she loved us, he loved us and thus we marked their date for October.
After the sneak peek in perfectly windy & cool October weather, we took off to “explore” downtown. Unbeknownst to Marcy, Barney had reached out to us and we’d worked together to create a very fun surprise for her! Side note: Marcy had worked with us previously on her surprise wedding gift for Barney ;) these two are the sweetest! Back to wedding day, they had been working together to restore a truck, from what Marcy knew they wouldn’t be able to have all of it done in order to have it part of their big day (as was their hope). While Marcy was attending to the final pieces of wedding prep, Barney had been finishing the truck. He’d gotten into town early and in what we learned to be true Barney fashion, made friends with a guy who had a garage that he could keep it in until the big reveal. That’s just the sort of guy he is, one to work hard to surprise his bride and to endear himself to those around him while in the process. We sort of became smitten with him too! We love that he’d done this and then worked out a plan so we could capture her beautiful reaction!
After our time with the couple, we met up with the Best Lady – Marcy’s sister and Best Man – Barney’s nephew. One of our favorite parts of being a part of this wedding, was the sense of family & relationship that was present in every choice. The way they approached the day, was so intentionally focused on relationship…after spending the last year and half getting to know them, we know this is just an overflow of who they are.
Check back on Thursday for the rest of this wedding! Contact us to get your wedding date reserved.
