Do I love a romantic summer barn wedding? Yes. Do I like it more if my couple trust me and is in love? Absolutely. How about we add perfect weather and a kick-ass wedding planner to the mix? Then my day goes from good, to better to perfect. I present you: Hannah and Cory’s wedding.
Emerald Pines Barn is located in the heart of Sioux Falls, SD. The owners were photographers themselves, and you can tell by the amazing light that surrounds the place. The entire barn has been maid to look good in pictures, and that is something that always makes me happy. It is very hard to take a bad photo there.
Hannah and Cory thought about everything. Every single detail was accounted for to make an impact on their guests. Of course, having Jennifer from Plan to Party there to ensure that the day worked as planned was a master move from their part.
We started the day with rain but we didn’t freak out. The sun came out during their first look and they ended up with the best sunset light a photographer can ask for. I absolutely love when my couples don’t get scared with the rain and embrace whatever comes. More of this please!
My couples always rock. That is a fact. And Hannah and Cory were not going to be less… however I have to say that I am always a little afraid of what I am going to find in the bridal party. After thirteen years as a wedding photographer in South Dakota, I have seen a little bit of everything, and I always proceed with caution until I can identify the dynamic of the group.
Truth to be told: I didn’t have to worry this time! Hanna and Cory’s bridal party was absolutely perfect! Not only they made the bride and groom’s day wonderful, they made us feel like family. Their cooperation and great attitude made everything easy and the entire day we were ahead of schedule. It was a pleasure working with them!
This wedding is an example of what happens when you mix good people, a wonderful venue, a beautiful summer day and a team of vendors that work like a well-oiled machine. From the planners to the Dj, everyone knew how to work their craft to perfection and that, my friends, often results in wonderful memories for everyone.
Hannah and Cory, thanks for having me there.
– Patty.
