“Here I was…thinking magic didn’t exist, and now that’s all I see when I look at you.”
-a.r. asher
November 10, 2018 was cold. There’s no way around it. It was cold and it was windy. But Kevin and Hannah walked hand in hand through their day, smiling as though it was sunny and 75. Hannah donned a backless gown with sheer lace sleeves and the entire day I looked at her in awe as she seemed completely unfazed by the elements. The golden November sun cast a warm halo of light around her and I swear that you’d never know the temperature by looking at her photos. Hannah, you’re the real MVP.
Kevin and Hannah chose to share a first look on their wedding day, a choice we always love! Tucked away in the lounge at the Stoltzfus Homestead and Gardens to escape the wind, the pair shared gifts and letters which was just the beginning of precious moments and shed tears. This true southern belle and this rugged Pennsylvania athlete share the sweetest bond, and their wedding day was the most perfect celebration of the life that they’ve built together. And with 11 bridesmaids and 12 groomsmen, the sweet emotion was equally matched by uproarious laughter and fun!
As the sun began to set behind golden leaves and the towering windmill on the beautiful Homestead property, guests filed into the historic Tobacco Barn. Everyone cozied up together and extended their hands towards the nearby heaters as they prepared to see the bride and groom. In a beautiful ceremony filled with sentimental touches and more tears, Kevin and Hannah vowed to love each other for eternity. Family and friends cheered as the pair left the grand, wooden doors of the barn as husband and wife. From the Tobacco Barn to the Grand Barn, guests scurried to relocated, and wrapped themselves in plush blankets provided by the newlyweds. Cocktail hour rolled into the reception as the party roared to life. A fun dance from Hannah and her dad, wonderful speeches drawing lots of laughs, and a dance floor packed from beginning to end- this wedding was full of life and abundant love. We cannot be more honored to have taken part in it! Kevin and Hannah, we wish you both all the best! Thank you for inviting us to capture your day!
