Samantha & Nathan = Farm Wedding Day!

Fox Hollow Farm Wedding Day  |  Samantha & Nathan  |  November 9, 2024

We fell in love with Samantha’s tight-knit family from the moment we met most of them at Samantha & Nathan’s Engagement Session – and again at Bridal Session! So we just KNEW it would be such a great day celebrating with the sweet & fun Hawkins fam!!!

It was a sunny & windy November day, but thankfully it wasn’t too cold even with the wind! We started off the morning photographing all of Samantha’s beautiful details while the girls had fun getting glammed and jamming to music in the bridal suite! I loved all of Samantha’s happy colors – and it was such a treat to photograph!!Nathan and the guys were having a great time at the grooms suite – and even setup a TV and Nintendo 64! It’s so fun with both parties have their own spaces and enjoying hanging out together!

Samantha’s sweet mom & sisters helped her get ready, and her precious mother-in-law helped to pin a special gift into her dress. I just LOVE her dress, and was so excited to photograph her again in it. Once Samantha was dressed, she had a sweet First Look with her older brother, Lee, and his reaction was soooo precious! After that, Samantha’s daddy, Danny, had his special moment with his little girl!

The ceremony space was just magical tucked into a little corner of the property with the sunset shining through the trees. I absolutely LOVED their welcome sign, with all the colorful flowers on it! Wow! Samantha & her dad were brought to the ceremony by horse & carriage, and afterwards, Nathan & Sam left the ceremony for a private carriage ride in it too! It was sooooo beautiful!

The sun was setting quick, so we photographed all their portraits chasing the beautiful glowy light – and we took sooooo many stunning portraits! I can’t wait for ya’ll to see!

The reception kicked off with a bang! First dances, dinner (pizza & pasta – how fun!!), a Pittsburgh Cookie Table, a LEGO guest book (each guest built a little lego of themselves, and wrote their name!) a Photo Booth, a cigar bar, smores table, a cracking fireplace lounge area, and dancing! SO MUCH DANCING!!! Also, Samantha’s little sister Brooke did ALL the fresh florals for everything! It was incredible that she designed it ALL! (Sam’s dad Danny also built a LOT of projects for the day too!)

Honestly, my favorite parts of the day were the ones seeing Samantha & Nathan with their families having SO MUCH fun and bring all together! Nathan’s fun family (his adorable parents dancing together to “Dirty Dancing” was so cute) and all the Hawkins siblings dancing together and having literally the BEST TIME – and how their spouses are just part of the big happy family! It’s literally the coolest family relationships ever!!!

It was truly the best day, with the sweetest families (they ALL checked on us throughout the day, and even Samantha’s dad AND uncle came up to us afterwards to personally thank us – wow!) and the most beautiful colors & details! I can’t wait for ya’ll to see LOTS of my favorites below! I hope you ENJOY!!!
