Barn venues are a southern Ohio favorite. They range in style, so they are great for creating so many different looks. A historic barn inherently has some character of its own- so lots of couples opt to showcase their venue and end up saving money on decor and go with minimal decor or decor that enhances the vibe of their chosen space.

Choosing a wedding venue is one of the first big decisions you make as a part of the wedding planning process. It sets the stage for all the other choices you make along the way. A space with a great vibe that fits the vision you have for your big day is so important. I am here to help you get an inside look at one of my favorite venues in Dayton, Ohio- The Steam Plant.

The Oakwood Courthouse is a dreamy little building. It is the best place for an intimate courthouse wedding. Jennifer and Isaac said ‘I do’ in front of a small group of their closest family and friends. After their indoor ceremony, we headed outside to take a few photos on the grounds of this gorgeous little building. It is such a great place for photos.

On their wedding day, Megan and Brennan chose to have a first look to see each other for the first time before their ceremony. Brennan’s reaction was absolutely priceless. I have never seen a groom so amazed by the beauty of his bride. After spending a moment together, we set off for Wittenburg University to take a few photos with the couple and their bridal party.
