For Yvonne + Kevin, the hometown sweethearts who swapped “I dos” at the Oliver Family Farm, the fun was all in the details. Case in point: the fabulous fashion + beyond-awesome getaway cars – er, vehicles. The bride and her attendants donned summer-worthy J. Crew frocks and sandals while the gents cleaned up nicely in salmon-colored slacks, navy blazers and customized sneakers. And check out the hot ride the bride + groom hijacked on their way to the ceremony. Genius! Jenna Walker Photographers documented the couple’s Pennsylvania wedding, and was good enough to give us enough images for two posts. More soon!
How did the two of you meet? We are from the same small town in New Jersey, and have known each other for years.
Describe the proposal. We got engaged at home on a cold winter evening in front of a cozy fire.
Three adjectives that describe the day are: Country-cool, laid-back and fun.
Our favorite detail of the wedding was: Rather than hire a videographer, we decided to commission a painter to paint the wedding live as it happened. Frenchy is a live performance artist who paints acrylic on canvas. The guests enjoyed watching the painting come to life and those that wanted to could help put paint on the canvas. The best part is that we have a priceless memento of our amazing day! Another favorite detail was the wedding favor: jars of honey supplied by the bees from the aviary on our property. We also really liked the escort cards, which were tied to antique horseshoes with ribbon.
Tell us about finding your wedding dress: Easy! I chose the Erica gown online from J.Crew. I didn’t even try on one wedding dress prior to choosing it!
I love how casual and fun everything looks. And I adore Yvonne’s flat sandals! Congratulations to the couple and thanks for sharing :)
Great details. My favorite must be the guys’ pink trousers and the bride’s sandals. What a fun event. Oh, yeah, the painting turned out great (I got a pick of it in Part II) and will definitely be viewed more often than a video.
