Three Years of The Old 56 ❤️❤️❤️
Three years ago, we took a leap of faith and became the proud owners of The Old 56. What started as a dream quickly became something so much more — a place full of love, laughter, and lifelong memories.

Over the past three years, we’ve had the honor of hosting couples from all over, watching “I dos” under the willow tree, heartfelt first dances in the barn, and families coming together on the farmhouse porch. Every single wedding has been a part of our story, and we’re so grateful you’ve chosen us to be part of yours.

To our couples, families, friends, and local vendors: thank you. Your support, love, and trust have built this into more than a venue.

Here’s to more love stories, more unforgettable moments, and many more years at The Old 56.

With full hearts,
Adam & Alisha Tellinghuisen

Big moments are beautiful—like the first kiss, the vows, the dancing—but what I repeatedly fall in love with are the subtle details. The handwritten letters as place cards, the table numbers that symbolize numbers significant in their relationship. These are the moments that quietly tell the story.

It's your wedding week, Haylie and Riley, and we can't wait to celebrate with you at The Old 56. Here is a glimpse of their love story. We knew each other in high school and hung out with the same friend group, but never crossed paths. Later, after we both graduated, we met through friends, and from there it was a match made in heaven. Two and a half years after we started dating, we decided to go on a cruise to Costa Maya, and that's where Riley popped the question. We are beyond excited to take this next step in our lives together!
