Rustic Romantic Wedding at Peppadew Fresh Farm • Bri Johnson Weddings

/ Red Oak Weddings/
 

Maria + Chuck are that couple... the couple you secretly wish you could be like when you "grow up". Not only are they ridiculously adorable, but they also seem completely and utterly in love. Their rustic romantic wedding at Peppadew Fresh Farm was full of laid-back elegance: lawn games, a family style meal and lots of laughter! 

From Bri: Since photographing Maria & Chuck's engagement session back in December I've been looking forward to their wedding day. They were both a pleasure to work with and I knew the wedding would be no different. The wedding was a rustic romantic inspired day filled with homemade decor, including custom lawn games, a family style meal, and an incredible Italian rainbow cake. Besides the intense heat, the day ran along smoothly and everyone had a calm casual day that reflects both Maria & Chuck as a couple.

I've always loved rainy days: the perfect excuse for a day indoors, cozied up on the couch. But this adorable engagement session from Hope & Stay Photography is making me rethink staying inside, because Sara and Joe embraced the rain and well, I'll let the photos speak for themselves! These two are so incredibly sweet together, and every photo is absolutely gorgeous. Sara and Joe are proof that the weather is no match for true love, and that rainy days aren't just for staying indoors!

If this story doesn't leave you grinning from ear-to-ear, I'm not sure what will. Charlie, a musician, prepared an epic proposal for Crystal during the once-in-a-lifetime Solar Eclipse, and we're a puddle of mush of how adorable it all was. The gorgeous florals, the steak dinner, the song Charlie wrote just for this day, ending in a lyric "I'm just going to ask you. Will you marry me?"... we love it all.
