Alexandria and Alexander were married on September 28th, 2024 at the Barn at Bradstreet Farm. It was a beautiful day from beginning to end, and it was truly a pleasure to capture it!
This was my first time at the Barn at Bradstreet Farm, and I sure hope it’s not my last! The barn, the bridal suites, and the grounds are all beautifully maintained and picturesque. The weather was perfect, partly cloud, and not too hot or cold.
As Ali and Alex were getting ready with their bridesmaids and groomsmen, I took some time to capture some of their wedding day details. Ali’s dress was glowing in the sunlight that streamed through the window. The wedding rings sat in a unique ring box that was custom made by Alex’s best man, Evan. The bouquet was fresh and colorful, and the florist even left some extra florals for detail shots (thanks!).
Ali & Alex shared a first look before their wedding ceremony down by the pond. Alex was thrilled to see Ali in her beautiful dress.
The pond and the swing were a beautiful backdrop for some photos of the bride and groom. We also got some photos with the barn and the vineyard as the backdrop.
The bridal party looked stunning, with the girls in burgundy dresses, and the guys in tan suits with ties to match the girls. I loved the swing and pond as a setting for the wedding party! Family also joined at this point to get some photos with the bride and groom.
The ceremony site behind the barn is absolutely gorgeous, with a pergola featuring climbing greenery, and a vineyard to serve as a backdrop. As Ali walked down the aisle with her mom and dad the clouds parted and sun shone down on this beautiful moment. Ali & Alex included a stone blessing ceremony, a dedication to their parents, and a declaration of their vows. The two exchanged rings, were officially pronounced husband and wife, and shared a first kiss. Cheers to the newlyweds!
During cocktail hour we got a few more photos of the bride and groom, this time in the vineyard and in front of the flower garden. We also got a few more photos with family who couldn’t be there before the ceremony.
After guests made their way inside following cocktail hour, Ali & Alex were introduced into the barn and shared a first dance. Their dance was followed by parent dances, a delicious dinner, and a selection of desserts.
After dinner and dessert it was time to party! DJ Joe kept things going for hours, and it was a blast! The dance floor was packed all night!
Ali & Alex left their wedding in style in a beautiful blue ’66 GTO. Off to the after party!
I had a great time working with Ali & Alex, and I wish them a lifetime of happiness!
