Every detail down to the pearls I placed in Jesse’s bouquet were carefully selected and absolutely striking. The synchronicity of this day begins with the fact that this beautiful couple is a part of the Sunflower Hill Farm family and have worked at the farm since before it was the stunning venue we all know and love today. Jesse and Michael were able to tie the knot at Sunflower Hill Farm on the anniversary of their first date. The flowers incorporated into this wedding were all sewn, nurtured, and harvested at the farm. Naturally, Michael and Jesse wanted flowers completely from the farm so I made sure to capture all the colorful joy the farm offers in July.

Michael and Jesse embraced each detail of this ceremony with such enthusiasm and excitement, I was so happy to be included. Jesse’s Aunt officiated the service and Michael’s Aunt’s created special origami pieces for Jesse’s bridal shower that I was able to incorporate into her wedding florals. Everything that went into this wedding was focussed around togetherness and the importance of family to this couple.

Congratulations to my farm family, Jesse & Michael Barnard
