Abbie & Josh chose to wood burn for their unity ceremony. Now they'll have this beautiful, custom side table in their home forever. 🏠
We're constantly blown away by our couples' creative ideas. It's the thoughtful execution of details like this that make wedding days special.

Southern Summer brides, we see you! 😍☀️🌡
As with any season, there are a few obstacles to overcome with a summer wedding. No worries, with a little planning and proper preparation, your wedding can be perfect... no matter the temperature!
☀️Say yes to a lightweight dress.
While nothing should stand in the way of your dream dress, consider finding a gown that is made of breathable material. Just mention this to your bridal stylist when you go shopping, she’s sure to have recommendations! Let's face it, when you’re comfortable, you’re happier. And that’s what your wedding day is all about!
☀️Pick a summer friendly hairdo.
For you and your girls, it’s best to choose a hairdo that will keep the hair off your neck and shoulders. This saves you from having to deal with sweaty hair sticking to your skin while you’re trying to pose for pictures or enjoy your first dance. It’s one less place for you to look “sweaty” in your final photos.
☀️Pack blotting papers and powder.
It doesn’t matter how strong your makeup setting spray is. You may still find yourself looking shiny or oily at some point during your Summer wedding. To prevent these issues from getting out of hand, ask your MOH to pack some blotting papers or translucent powder in her makeup bag for you. This makes it easy for you to get rid of shininess and stay fresh-faced throughout the entire wedding.
We are so much more than just a barn venue. 💜⬇️
Yes we host beautiful weddings and events...and we can't imagine our life without that!
But behind all that, we are a family of 10 who was called to leave the 🏈NFL, 🚜start a farm to feed the hungry, and 💜sow seeds of love in our community.
Behind the scenes, it's a lot of early mornings, late evenings, labor intensive harvesting crops, riding tractors, feeding animals, and a whole lot more.
While it isn't always easy, we are so very blessed and thankful for this work God has called us to do.

The upstairs of our authentic dairy barn features a large cross window behind the altar. ✝️ If you catch the cross at just the right time of day and under just the right circumstances, the sun will grace you with its presence shining through. ☀️ Truly, it is a breathtaking experience that leaves you in awe of our Creator.
A former hay loft, this unique upstairs space also boasts 20 foot ceilings, historic craftsmanship, and distinctive architecture, including the original hay trolley
When you're wed at our venue, you'll give your guests breathtaking scenery, an easy-to-navigate facility, and plenty of space to get comfortable throughout your event. 💟💍💒
Yes, our couples are our first priority, but we also put lots of time and effort into thinking about your guests' experience!
Book your tour with us today! Get started on our website.
In April 2012, our family stepped out in faith as we walked away from the NFL. 🏈
God had revealed that He had something bigger in store for our family ➡️ moving back to North Carolina to start a farm. 🚜🐄🐖🐓
We made a covenant with God that His people would receive the first fruits of whatever was produced from the land. 🥕🥔
Later, we added the wedding venue piece of what we do in order to help support the food donation ministry.
While it hasn't always been easy, this is our calling, and we're so thankful to God for His faithfulness. 🙏🏾💜✝️

DIY BRIDES- Listen up! Here are 3 Mistakes to AVOID if you’re a DIY Bride:
1: Not having a backup plan… because not every project turns out like we’d hoped! 😅
2: Not asking for help! Ask your friends, bridesmaids, family members etc. to help you get everything done. “Many hands make light work”, and it still counts as DIY. 😉
3: Not paying attention to the cost of your DIY projects. Supplies can add up, and the last thing you want to do is to end up spending MORE money on a DIY when you originally wanted to save money… 🥲
If you’ve been a DIY Bride in the past, what would you add to this list?

Wedding veils are a tradition dating back to ancient Greece, when brides would wear a veil to ward off evil spirits. Today, veils are worn for a variety of reasons, from religious symbolism to fashion. But one thing remains the same: a bride’s veil is a special part of her wedding day. And they make for some awesome photos!What’s your favorite wedding veil style?👰♀️📷: @ransomphotographync #weddingveil #weddingstyle #ncweddings #ncweddingvenue #weddingdress #sayyestothedress #sowmorelove
