Rachel and Justin’s Upscale Rustic Farm Wedding

by Amy Serrago

Rachel and Justin’s wedding day started with an outdoor ceremony at The Barn on Unity Farm, a charming new venue in Southern West Virginia. They exchanged vows under a grand pine tree. A rustic wooden arbor adorned with white sheers and a floral arrangement of red and blush roses with antler details formed their wedding altar and they included a unity braid ceremony in the festivities. They were surrounded by their friends and family and their adorable Australian Shepherd puppy, Gracie, sat dutifully beside them – practically stealing the show!

Rachel was stunning in her lace gown with its sexy sheer back, sleek modern cut and cathedral train. She finished her look with pearl earrings and a cascading bouquet of pale blush and burgundy roses with succulent and eucalyptus accents. Her bridesmaids brought the glam in red gowns with lace bodices and cap sleeves, their delicate pink and white bouquets providing the perfect pop of contrasting color. Justin and his groomsmen were dashing in light gray. Justin wore all three pieces of his suit and paired it with a blush tie while his groomsmen rocked vests and shirts with red accessories to match the ladies.

Rustic wooden touches and autumn accents were the main theme of the reception decor and upscale details turned Rachel and Justin’s sweetheart table into an absolute dream. Birchwood logs held vintage inspired candlesticks and a gilded “Mr. & Mrs.” sign was perfectly placed in the center of a lush floral arrangement featuring antler details. A glittering beaded curtain and twinkle lights gave extra sparkle and the newlyweds’ dessert stand was absolutely luscious! The barn was aglow as Rachel and Justin shared their first dance as husband and wife, but after dinner the party moved to the patio outside and guests celebrated into the night. Congratulations Rachel and Justin!
