Kristy and Brian had one of the most beautiful, intimate weddings that I have had the honor to photograph. Ironically, it was nothing like the wedding that they had planned. A family health emergency caused a change of locations--from the original site in Hide-A-Way Hills, to the bride's hometown of Piqua. The new location was absolutely beautiful. It was a restored polo barn at a private residence that would rival some of the most unique wedding locations that we have seen anywhere. Best of all, it was close to home, and had a meaningful history to the bride and her family.
Kristy and Brian had their ceremony right at sunset following dinner with their guests. A bit of a reverse from the typical wedding day--but no grumpy guests waiting for dinner after the ceremony! Their dog Maggie did a great job as ringbearer. Following the ceremony we took off for some romantic, sunset photos. Then it was time to cut the cake and they spent the rest of the evening visiting with friends and family and sitting by the fire. Kristy did get in a dance with Brian's grandpa--which was a dance that had been promised long before the wedding day. Kristy and Brian's ability to roll with the changes and adapt their plans says a lot for their solid relationship--and their ability to place a priority on what really matters. They understood that it's not about the wedding--it's about the marriage--and the joining together of the families and friends. Their wedding day wasn't what they had originally planned--but may just have ended up even better! All in all, a perfect wedding day!
