Making this a venue with rustic charm and modern elegance. 

The barn’s exterior is another stunning location for wedding photos. Couples can pose and dance in front of the large red barn, among the rows of fruit trees, or make their grand entrance on the ceremony lawn. The large white framed entrance doors next to the silo offer both a shaded spot for your photographer to with and also a beautiful rustic frame. Don’t skip over the silo itself though. It can add a nice bit of rustic variety to your photo collection. It is also a nice place for a wedding dress photo! Hang your dress on it for a shot of it before you put it on. 

Around the barn, you will also find seasonal decorations to use. In the fall, they park an antique truck out back to use for photos as well! The rolling hills aren’t all you will find for natural scenery. There are some beautiful evergreen trees and flowering bushes scattered around the yard. So you are guaranteed some greenery to pair with the golden fields and antique red barn.
