We were so excited to kick off our spring with Seth & Ashley’s wedding at one of our favorite local venues, The Barn at Hardy Farm.  This place is really special with the main inn dating from the 1700’s and the stunning rustic chic barn built in the 1800’s, it has a charm that cannot be replicated!  Right on the outskirts of the White Mountain National Forest, Ashley and Seth fell for the Hardy Farm for all the lovely character it has, but also because right there they have a woodland ceremony site, garden patio for cocktail hour, sailcloth tent for dinner, and of course, everyones favorite is the elegant white barn for dancing!  Seth and Ashley love the outdoors, hiking, and are always up for an adventure, just our kind of couple!  We were so excited when these two asked us to capture their wedding day this May.  The tulips were just starting to pop, while the trees were trying their hardest to start budding.  Ashley’s flowers by Ampersand Elements played off of a yellow spring forsythia theme in her bouquets, at the ceremony site and out favorite were the centerpieces during the reception that were accented with some succulents.  Ashley was at the main inn getting ready with all her ladies and Debony Salon while Seth was just up the road at the log cabin getting ready with all his groomsmen.  They had a lovely ceremony at the woodland ceremony site, and it was followed by a fun cocktail hour on the garden patio on the side of the main inn.  We wandered all over the property for their newlywed portraits, there are just so many sweet spots right there!  The evening was filled with a fantastic dinner catered by On The Vine Marketplace, dancing with Northeast Event Design rocking it, and we snuck out and went down the road to a scenic spot to do some dusk portraits.  What a day!  Thank you Seth and Ashley, we absolutely loved photographing your beautiful Maine spring wedding!
