Sylvie + Brian‘s intimate wedding outside of Madison at the O’Brien Barn and Blue Mound State Park was just delightful to photograph and take part in. I learned what genuinely sweet and kind people they both are at their Madison engagement session last fall. Their wedding kept striking you throughout the day with its extremely intimate nature and personal touches. All loved ones attending lent a helping hand with at least one element of the day. (Sylvie’s mom even sewed all of their napkins for dinner, and her own dress for the wedding!)

S+B’s outdoor ceremony took place on one of the overlooks in Blue Mound State Park, where surrounded by family and friends, everyone contributed sentiments, laughs + hugs. For the reception, the O’Brien Barn made things that much more personal. The farm is actually a working sixth-generation family farm and inadvertently became a ‘venue’ open to other couples after the family’s daughter renovated the barn for her own wedding a few years ago! I really could go on and on (and on), so I will allow the pictures to speak for themselves. Sylvie + Brian…you are so sugary sweet and fun! Thank you again for inviting me into your lives! :)
