A Vintage Style Wedding at the Blue Dress Barn | Nora + Rob | Benton Harbor, Michigan
Nora + Rob
Fun & quirky. Those are the adjectives I would use to describe Nora & Rob. You can’t help but have a good time in their presence. You can’t help but laugh at their humor and smile because well…they don’t take life too seriously and frankly that’s refreshing! You’ll see in their highlights here how genuine they are. It just radiates through the photos and that’s no trickery from me. It’s all them.
I had high expectations for the Blue Dress Barn in Benton Harbor, and it didn’t disappoint. Nestled in-between beautiful mature trees, surrounded by wildflowers, and engulfed in vines, the setting of this rustic white barn was like out of a fairy tale! Boasting not one but TWO expansive outdoor ceremony options adorned with twinkling lights PLUS an old camper on site for the guys to prep and hang pre-ceremony, this venue had it all. ALLL the character and then some.
Highlights? Oh there are so many! I loved Nora’s vision. Vintage inspired….neutrals and greens with pops of color. Her red lipstick and ankle length gown (WITH POCKETS!). The mustard sofa she hand selected. Rob’s humor the ENTIRE DAY. Nora’s smile when Rob’s being Rob. Her Irish dance team from Chicago. Rob’s faux Irish dance moves. And can we talk about Rob’s reaction when Nora comes strolling down the aisle with Dad? Yeah…I lost it.
Well enough rambling. Let’s get to this beautiful wedding already!! All vendors linked at the bottom!
