Some of my favourite moments:

The emotional first looks outside.

The emotional ceremony.

Editorial portraits inside and outside the venue.

A high-energy party in the barn, complete with live music and nonstop dancing.

Every moment felt authentic and alive — exactly the kind of wedding that Old House 1147 seems to be made for.
