Barn on the Pemi Wedding Photographer

The wedding of Erin and Austin in August at The Barn on the Pemi was nothing short of a beautiful bohemian dream. Nestled in the heart of Plymouth, NH, this enchanting venue provided the perfect backdrop for a day that was as unique and special as the couple themselves. As a Barn on the Pemi wedding photographer, I had the privilege of second shooting for JillMac Photography, capturing every precious moment of this unforgettable celebration. As a second shooter I get the opportunity to capture unique angles and moments that added depth to Erin and Austin’s wedding story.

The day began with a hint of uncertainty as rain threatened to put a damper on the outdoor festivities. But as fate would have it, the rain held off just long enough for Erin and Austin to exchange their vows surrounded by family and friends in a lush greenhouse setting that felt like something out of a fairytale.

Preparation at The Common Man Inn and Spa

The day’s preparations began at The Common Man Inn and Spa, where Erin and Austin, along with their closest friends and family, gathered to get ready. The air was filled with excitement and anticipation as Erin slipped into her stunning lace gown, the intricate patterns and textures reflecting the bohemian theme of the day. The bridesmaids, barefoot and glowing, added to the earthy, natural vibe, with their bare feet on the grass creating a tactile connection to the day’s surroundings.

Once everyone was ready, the group boarded a charming trolley that whisked them away to The Barn on the Pemi. The anticipation grew as they approached the venue, with the lush greenery and rustic charm of the barn creating the perfect setting for the day’s festivities.

A Greenhouse Ceremony Filled with Love

The ceremony took place in a greenhouse at The Barn on the Pemi, a setting that was both intimate and breathtakingly beautiful. Lush greenery surrounded the space, creating a natural, organic feel that perfectly complemented Erin and Austin’s bohemian style. Cozy twinkle lights added a warm, inviting glow, while bohemian rugs scattered down the aisle added a touch of whimsy and texture.

Erin and Austin’s vows were a highlight of the day, as they spoke from the heart, surrounded by the love and support of their closest family and friends. The rain, which had been threatening all day, finally began to fall just after the ceremony, adding a rich layer of sound to the night’s ambiance as it pattered against the barn’s roof. It was a moment that felt both magical and serendipitous, as if the rain was blessing their union.

A Reception Full of Heartfelt Moments and Fun Surprises

As the evening unfolded, the reception inside The Barn on the Pemi was filled with laughter, love, and plenty of surprises. The decor was a true reflection of Erin and Austin’s bohemian style, with greenery everywhere and a color scheme of whites, coppers, and greens. The scent of incense filled the air, adding to the day’s sensory experience, while the textures of the decor – from the lace on Erin’s dress to the soft rugs underfoot – made every detail feel thoughtfully curated and deeply personal.

One of the standout moments of the reception was a custom rap performed by the bride’s sister and some of the bridesmaids, set to the tune of “Rapper’s Delight.” It was a fun, unexpected surprise that had everyone on their feet, laughing and dancing along. The energy in the room was electric, a true testament to the love and joy that Erin and Austin’s wedding inspired.

Overcoming Challenges with Creativity and Love

One of the challenges faced during the day was the sudden downpour that started just as Erin and Austin were about to take their portraits together. But rather than letting the rain dampen their spirits, they embraced the moment with grace and creativity. The greenhouse, with its lush greenery and natural light, provided the perfect indoor solution that still felt connected to the outdoors. The result was a series of portraits that captured the beauty of the day and the deep connection between Erin and Austin.

Among the many beautiful moments captured, my favorite shots were those that showcased the couple’s love and happiness. Whether it was the way Austin looked at Erin during their vows or the way they laughed together during their first dance, it was clear to everyone present that these two were deeply in love and committed to enjoying every second of their wedding day.

Personal Touches That Made the Day Unforgettable

Erin and Austin’s wedding was filled with personal touches that made the day truly their own. One particularly touching moment was the couple’s decision to have a “first touch” instead of a first look. Standing back-to-back, they held hands and shared a quiet moment together before the ceremony, exchanging words of love and anticipation without seeing each other. It was a beautiful, intimate moment that added a layer of emotion to the day.

The reception ended on a sweet note with a dessert table that featured s’mores by the fire – a cozy, nostalgic treat that brought everyone together as the night came to a close. The sound of the rain, the crackling of the fire, and the laughter of loved ones created a perfect ending to a perfect day.

A Lifetime of Memories

Reflecting on Erin and Austin’s wedding, it’s evident that they will have photos to look back on and reminisce for a lifetime. The day was a beautiful blend of love, joy, and bohemian style, with every detail thoughtfully planned and perfectly executed. As a photographer, it was an honor to capture these moments and be a part of their special day.
