Handmade Wisconsin Barn Wedding: Hailey + Brad

Handmade Wisconsin Barn Wedding: Hailey + Brad

via

When Hailey + Brad initially got engaged, they pictured an outdoor wedding in Hailey's parents' yard - " a down-home kind of party in a comfortable space surrounded by late summer cornfields". But when the time came to turn their day dreams into a reality, the logistics of an at-home wedding became overwhelming. They decided to find a venue that would give them the feeling of a backyard bash, but could realistically (and comfortably) host their 200 guests. And they hit the jackpot with The Barn at Harvest Moon Pond in Poynette, Wisconsin, which gave them the feeling of home + acted as the perfect blank slate for an abundance of beautiful, handmade details.

Hailey says, Brad and I are a laid-back, no-fuss couple who love to have fun and our wedding was planned to reflect those characteristics. Our wedding date was about a month shy of our ninth year together and we wanted our day to be not only a celebration of our genuine love for one another, but a day to celebrate all of our friends and family who supported us along the way. Inspired by natural elements with touches of glam, we had a clear vision for the day and worked hard to bring it to fruition. And by 'we worked hard', I truly mean WE worked hard - almost all projects were D.I.O. - do it ourselves. I designed all of the paper goods - save-the-dates, home letterpress invitations, menus, ceremony programs, and escort cards - and the two of us constructed them together.

Thanks so much to Kate Romenesko for the truly stunning captures + congrats to Hailey + Brad on the loveliest day!

Hailey's GORGE blush wedding dress was by Monique Lhuillier - and we love her Kate Spade clutch (via Rent the Runway).

Dying over Hailey's shoes!! B Brian Atwood for all inquiring minds :) The bridesmaids looked lovely in mismatched dresses in shades of ivory + cream from Urban Outfitters, BCBG, Target, Gap, and David's Bridal

Pretty, pretty bouquets by Alluring Blooms ...

Such a perfect ceremony site + backdrop!

Hailey recently started a blog where she'll be posting several of her + Brad's wedding DIY projects. So, be sure to follow along to get the inside scoop on how to craft a day as beautiful as theirs!

We love all the pink, gold + chevron. An elegant way to dress up the rustic barn!
