I love spring. I get so excited when you get those first few warm days. You start to forget about winter, look forward to summer activities, and are automatically in a good mood!:) Jacki and Matt picked their March 14th wedding date at the Simpson Barn in Johnston, Iowa, and just hoped the weather would be above freezing. You never know what March in Iowa has in store. Turns out they picked the most perfect March day. It was 70’s and sunny with a warm breeze. The guest were also thrilled with this perfect weather, because Jacki and Matt picked to have their wedding reception at the Simpson Barn in Johnston. This venue was adorable and allowed for a casual, relaxed feel where guest could mix and mingle in and out of this charming, restored, barn. Jacki, Matt, and their families are so sweet, and were an absolute pleasure to work with. I could not be more thrilled that this easy going, down to earth couple had such a beautiful first day of marriage to match their casual, and sweet style. And if the venue and weather were not stunning enough… you have to take a look at the details and décor at this wedding. Everything from the invitations, to the handcrafted pedals on the bouquets, to the 2 in 1 succulent table decorations that doubled as favors for the guest. The crazy part- Jacki and her family did all of this themselves. It was so on point, and so well done! Kuddos! But more importantly, congratulations on your beautiful marriage Jacki & Matt!!! Enjoy!
