Hi! We are getting married in May next year, and it is quickly approaching! It will be at a beautiful barn in Ohio. Planning for 5:30pm ceremony. Our ceremony and reception will be taking place at the same venue. We have the venue from 10am -11pm. I'll be gifting hair and makeup to my bridesmaids, MoH, mother and future mother-in-law. If they choose to use the services, I know that can be a big factor too. There is a cute house as well that has separate spaces for the Bride and Groom and party to get ready, so they don't we each other. There is a shared kitchen with a red light that tells the guys when it is safe to come in So no first look (very important to my FH), but we love the idea of a first touch moment. We know that this means we will have many photos taken after the ceremony and during the cocktail hour. Definitely dream of having sunset pictures (weather permitting).
I hope this helps lay things out some. Thank you so much for your help!! Any thoughts and guidance are truly appreciated!
