Amber & Matt grew up in a small town in rural Pennsylvania, lived their separate lives, never met, and then both went off to college. . . at the same place: Kent State University. That’s where they met & they’ve been inseparable ever since. Now they live in Texas. But they decided to bring it back to rural Pennsylvania for their wedding. It was a pretty & rustic barn wedding & it couldn’t have been a more fitting way for these two to start their married life together! Sunflowers, burlap, lace, and cowboy boots all came together in a charming & beautiful way.
Mitchell Ponds Inne was a picturesque backdrop for their lovely wedding day!
Ellie, Amber & Matt’s dog, was the flower girl. Â Amber is a veterinarian and an avid animal lover. . . except for frogs, but that’s another story for another day. 😉
Super Max the ring bearer!
A few sprinkles fell just before the ceremony started, but the skies cleared and the sun shone down during the wedding ceremony.

So many smiles and laughs during the ceremony!
These ladies were so nice and laid back. I loved it!
And the fellas. Reminds me Blake Shelton’s “Boys ‘Round Here.” 
Gorgeous bride! It was so great to see her again and witness her get married. She and her two roommates, Liz & Jen, lived on the opposite side of a duplex I lived in while I was in law school. They were always so fun to hang out with.
The grounds of Mitchel Ponds Inne are very charming.
We finished up the photos & the wind kicked up & heavy rain moved in just in time for the reception to begin. We had cover in the barn so it all worked out well & the rain passed after a bit.
Shana’s Cupcakes in Punxsutawney, PA. Yes, that Punxsutawney.
Amber’s sister caught the bouquet. 
And Amber’s sister’s boyfriend caught the garter. And I read on Amber’s Facebook that these two are now engaged! 🙂 Congrats! I guess there is a bit of truth to the rumor that those who catch the bouquet and garter are next in line to be married.
It’s not really a party until someone does a split.
Congratulations, Amber & Matt! And thank you two for sharing your wedding day with us! We wish you both the very best in your life together.
