Black Barn Vineyards

Seriously a stunning day with just the most kind and full hearted people. Kristine and Brent started their day by exchanging gifts, enjoying a moment together during their first look and hanging with their crew all day long. Their story of their first date is probably my favorite, as both of them didn’t have much money individually so they took a walk in the woods and enjoyed one single beer each at a bar. Throughout graduate school, doctorate school, they stuck it out and ended up celebrating together this new journey they get to share together. Kristine and Brent had the most supportive, sweetest crew that provided theee most hype, and Brent shared a journal he had written every single day for a year to give to Kristine on the morning of their wedding day, with the last journal being the night before – so yes, a lot of sentiment and set the bar high for many grooms out there [lol].
