Michael + Alexus' Rustic Fall Wedding at Mapleside Farms in Brunswick, OH | October 11, 2019 | Cleveland Wedding Photographer

stunning whimsical flowing veil bride and groom wedding photo

Last month, Donny & I had the pleasure of photographing Michael + Alexus’ barn wedding at Mapleside Farms in Brunswick, Ohio. It was such a special day filled with so many heartfelt, hilarious, & adorable moments, and we’re so happy to have been a part of it!

Michael + Alexus were married on a beautiful fall afternoon outside of the barn at Mapleside Farms. Their ceremony site overlooked a gorgeous landscape. It was a stunning location for an outdoor wedding, especially in October! The ceremony was short & sweet, and full of love! It didn’t need to be long to be very memorable!

After the ceremony & family formal portraits, we hopped on a golf cart and drove down to the pretty apple orchards for bride & groom photos. We also used the overlook for many bridal party and bride & groom photos. The entire property at Mapleside Farms is just so pretty! It was perfect for all of our photos! :)

After formal photos, we headed inside for the reception! This was such a special event filled with so many sweet moments, including a surprise song that Michael sang for his beautiful wifey; heartfelt dances; hilarious toasts; some messy cake cutting, garter & bouquet tosses; dancing, and more! We have the photos to prove it!

Enjoy some of our favorite moments & details from this very special day! :)
