Rustic Walnut Grove Farms Wedding

Nov 3, 2021

Rustic Walnut Grove Farms Wedding

The saying “last but not least” perfectly describes this rustic Walnut Grove Farms wedding! It’s crazy to think! This was my last wedding of 2021! I seriously can’t believe how fast the year has gone. Twenty-one weddings, and I got to end it on the best note!

Celebrating Jensen and Patrick!

These two are so sweet, and their day was filled with so many special moments. With four kids, the love towards these two was never-ending! Constantly wanting held or giving hugs, my shutter couldn’t click fast enough to capture all of the moments!

I just want to relive it all over again!

It started out with, Hadley, their oldest daughter, getting to have a photo with her mom’s wedding dress. I can’t imagine how special the moment will be when Jensen pulls out that photo on Hadley’s wedding day! So precious! Then, the two daughters took a photo together laying beside Jensen’s dress looking at each other. It was a tearjerker for me; I can’t imagine how it will be for Jensen and Patrick as they watch their two girls grow up and reminisce about these moments with them!

Every moment of the day tied their family together!

Hadley had the honor of being Jensen’s maid-of-honor, and Xavier, their oldest son, got to pull the younger two down the aisle in a wagon. Both of them stood proudly throughout the ceremony, knowing how important their job was. Plus, they were both just as excited for Jensen and Patrick to be married!

Them, and everyone else in the barn!

It was an outpouring of love the entire day! Cheers and clapping echoed as they said their I Dos. It was the moment so many people had been waiting for! My favorite part, though, was the special touch these two added during the parent dances.

This was when the water works came!

Patrick walked with his mom out to the center of the dance floor. As the music began to play, the two of them slowly began to turn, just like it is typically done. But as the song got about halfway through, the DJ came over the speakers and asked for Jensen to grab her two sons and share a dance with them, as well. Since it was the mother-son dance. It was so special to watch them hold on to her as they turned around.

So in love with their mom!

What a special moment for them all to share in! I know I felt honored to have the opportunity to photograph it. I can’t wait for them to flip through these images for years to come and remember each moment with their kids! Jensen and Patrick truly made it a special day, not just for them, but for their kids as well.

A new family was created!

Jensen and Patrick, thank you so much for trusting in me to be a part of your day! I have LOVED getting to know you two and all four of the kids! They are just so sweet and full of energy! I can’t wait for you to flip through all the photos soon, but these are definitely some of my absolute favorites! From the colors you picked, to the decorations that lined the barn, it was truly a beautiful day! And the sunshine was the icing on the cake! I wish you two so much happiness, and you will always have a special place in my heart!

XOXO ~ Heather Marie
