At Beckendorff Farms, Erica & Jerry spent their morning laughing with family and friends and carefully peeking around corners to avoid an accidental peek of their best friend before meeting down the aisle. Some couples love the first look trend, but these two wanted the surprise to happen traditionally. They were too cute as they made every effort not to bump into each other. 

The Moment Has Arrived

The moment finally arrived, and it was even better than they imagined. His look of complete adoration and awe said it all when he saw his bride for the first time. She had an extra pep in her step, and they couldn’t wait to meet there at the end hand in hand. They exchanged vows, pledged forevers, and finally had their first kiss of many to come as a married couple. They savored every moment together amid smiles and tears and little happy dances full of excitement and promise…then they partied! Congratulations to the happy couple! What a fun day. Here’s a little peek…

The venue is a lovely place. Beckendorff Farms is raw and rustic, yet refined in just the right places. It’s truly the perfect blend of rustic chic, and they have all the accommodations for a farmhouse-style wedding. S.B. Moore Co. helped tie it all together, and F. Dellit Designs added their delicate touch with elegant greenery and soft-pink roses. Cakes by Gina did the best job of taking their style and theme and turning it into a wedding cake. Everything went together flawlessly. Many thanks to the incredible team below! Go check them out.
