✨ Your wedding photographer isn’t a magician. Even with a second shooter, they can’t be everywhere at once. You need to allow time for your love story to be told in photos.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1️⃣ The night before – Book them for the rehearsal dinner or welcome party. They’ll capture candid moments, get to know your friends and family, and settle in so your big day feels effortless.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2️⃣ Detail shots – Rings, shoes, invitations, flowers… if you want those swoon-worthy shots, add at least an hour just for the details. These are the photos that make your album feel like you were there again, reliving every little moment.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3️⃣ Reception & ceremony spaces – Give your photographer time before guests arrive to capture your space in all its glory. (because we all know you poured your heart into every detail) If you’re planning a reception reveal, more time is a must.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
📌 Hit save as a reminder: If you want everything, give your photographer the time to make it happen.

When floral dreams meet cultural traditions, magic happens! That magic was woven into every detail of Kelli & Javier’s heartfelt wedding. 🌸

Their weekend-long celebration at Emerson Fields wove together bold fuchsia blooms, graceful draping, and fireworks of emotional moments—from the welcome dinner to the confetti exit in the pavilion.

Blending American and Venezuelan heritage, their day wasn’t just a wedding, it was a vibrant, guest-centered story of love, unity, and joy.

Why couples love Emerson Fields 💖⁠

Our all-white venue was designed with intention, and it’s run with genuine dedication to serving our couples every step of the way.

A few reasons our couples LOVE Emerson Fields…
* Just 50 miles north of Columbia, MO
* Family-built and family-run with care
* No vendor restrictions (bring your favorites!)
* Transparent pricing with no hidden fees
* A true home-away-from-home feel
Your wedding, your way—and always stress-free.

Don’t just trust our word for it!!
Take it from Julie, the mother of the bride 👇🏼
“Our daughter’s wedding at Emerson Fields was an amazing experience! Having not planned a wedding before, we leaned heavily on the Emerson Fields Team to help us through the process. They were there to answer questions, provide vendor recommendations, make suggestions, share tips, and touch base all along the way. They were unbelievably helpful and made sure every detail was addressed. Steve and Amelia are not only the owners, they are your biggest advocates... and ultimately your friends. They truly care about your special day. If you are looking for someone you can trust and depend on to deliver one of your family’s biggest days, look no further than Emerson Fields!!!”

Most weddings are beautiful. But some… feel truly magical. What makes the difference?👇🏼
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s in the way the couple is fully present, the space feels calm, the florals seem to breathe life into every corner, and every moment is captured exactly as it unfolds.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
That’s the kind of day we live for.
At its heart, the wedding industry is about service — removing stress, offering clarity, and creating an environment where joy takes center stage.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For us, that means…
✨ A venue designed for connection, with stunning backdrops around every turn.
✨ Timeless photography that preserves not just how the day looked, but how it felt.
✨ Florals that bring personality, warmth, and beauty to every detail.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When these elements come together, it’s more than a “perfect” day, it’s a celebration that feels like you and will be remembered for decades.

“If I could change one thing about the wedding industry…”
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’d take away the pressure for couples to perform instead of experience. Trends, comparisons, and Pinterest-worthy expectations can overshadow what matters, being with the people you love.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Even I slip into chasing the perfect highlight reel (photographer brain forever 🤍). No wedding day is flawless, but the most memorable ones are authentic.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Madison & Adam knew what was really important to them and they let go of the other pressures. They created a joyful, grounded celebration that felt like them and guests felt it too.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
That’s what we want here…a place that feels like home for the weekend, where you can stop performing and simply show up. ✨

Happily ever after, planned in just 5 months, without sacrificing a single detail of the celebration they dreamed of!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Rachel, the mother of the bride, shared this glowing review:
“The perfect place for your wedding & the perfect people to make it happen! Amelia, Steve, Susan & Katie were so easy to work with for my daughter’s wedding. We only had 5 months to plan, and it was the absolute easiest with Emerson Fields! I was concerned with such a short time frame, but it ended up being so easy—so glad we didn’t take longer to plan it.”
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When you have a professional team by your side, the stress melts away and you get to celebrate SOONER!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
She went on to say:
“The venue itself is STUNNING!!! Having lodging on site was so nice! I had family from out of state, and it worked out perfectly to have them stay right there.”
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
offers a retreat-like experience for you and your loved ones. The right venue + the right team = a wedding day that comes together with ease.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Rachel wrapped up her review by saying:
“I would HIGHLY recommend Emerson Suites for any party! I feel like they are now part of my family! Thank you to Amelia, Steve, Susan, and Katie for making it the most memorable wedding!”
