Vince and Brianna's Tannery Barn Wedding

August 20th, 2022

When we visited Vince and Brianna, we discovered that they they are a sweet couple who have a love for their cat, Brian, and a passion for fantasy fiction. Their wedding had several accents to these loves. They took inspiration from the greatest fantasy story of all time, The Lord of the Rings, and also the most popular fantasy role-playing video game of all time, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

‍

The Tannery Barn offered the rustic look that would compliment such themes without going all the way with a castle, swords, armor, and medieval garb.

‍

The day was serviced by these fantastic vendors, so if you are in the market, please give them a look:

Bridal Prep

First thing is first, Lauran Abagale Bridal had the task of revealing Brianna's inner elvish princess with the hair and makeup.

Bridal Portraits

With her hair and makeup done, she got in her dress and we spend time around the venue getting some shots of the bride and her bridesmaids. We wanted to take this opportunity to incorporate this fantasy theme into our photos. Elves are bright and elegant so that's what we aimed to capture.

The bride's veil was a long flowing cape and her hair was adorned with flowers, giving her an elven look.

The Tannery Barn has a spiral staircase that goes from the Ceremony/Reception space to the Cocktail hour space.

Here she is at the ceremony space for Bridal portraits.

The bridespeople helped participate by holding out her veil while we got some through-the-veil shots.

The dreamy lighting and ambiance of the Tannery Barn highlighted the lovely wood chairs, aisle decorations, and arbor florals. Flowers By Wendy Carol put a lot of care into this scene.

The Ceremony

As the bride came down the aisle, a soundtrack from Lord the of Rings played. For the recessional, they chose an instrumental version of the Dragonborn theme from Skyrim.
