Black Barn Wedding

Black Barn Vineyard and Winery Wedding in Rives Junction, MI

FROM THE PHOTOGRAPHER:

This was our first time photographing a wedding at the Black Barn Vineyard and Winery. We. Are. OBSESSED. It is such a unique take on a barn wedding venue and the property is a photographer’s dream. When we arrived, Amber and the Pinapple Punch team were putting final touches on the reception decor featuring. The tables were decked out in coral florals with emerald and gold accents. Each guest received the cutest favor which was a bookmark that looked like a library card. My bookish heart swooned.

The wedding party finished getting ready just in time for the rain to stop, but the ground was still super wet. So, we found the perfect spot in the corner of the parking lot against the trees where we could make some photo magic. By the time guests started arriving, everything was dry and we could walk around the property without getting muddy.

After a crazy 2020 wedding season with COVID restrictions, this was as close to “back to normal” as we have experienced. It felt so good to shoot a full reception with an awesome DJ (yes Tess!), and enjoy a meal at a table with new friends.
