The Party of a Lifetime at The Barn at Stoneybrooke | Hannah + Justin | 7/10/2021
I worked my way right. No good. The circle was too tight. I shifted left and saw an opening. Ducking under the fist pump of a guest while hugging my camera to my chest, I weaved my way into the crowd. I could feel the music from Marx Event Group under my feet and in my bones as everyone sang to the music. This was a party of parties.
Just when I was about to give up searching the crowd for higher ground, I spotted her. She was surrounded by a circle of mostly guys…one of which was her new husband. I recognized Hannah’s smile in an instant. She wasn’t just having her best day ever. She was living her best day ever. Her joy is contagious in any situation but this was over the top. It’s no wonder why their wedding party was so big. Their entire guest list probably could have been in their party. This was a close-knit, huge, group of fun people who love each other dearly.
During his speech, Hannah’s dad Joe said, “She more beautiful inside than she is outside” and I agree 1,000%…and Hannah is a GORGEOUS girl. There’s no denying that. She has the kind of beauty that just radiates out of her. She’s always smiling. And, she LOVES her people. She loves with a fierce joy that is hard to explain. Quick to tear in joy (from her dad) and all smiles (from her mom) Hannah is the kind of girl everyone wants to be friends with. Normally, these kind of girls are categorized into the “popular girl” group. While I have no doubt Hannah is a “popular girl” I would bet money that everyone —and I mean everyone — is welcome with her and in her circle. With Hannah, there’s no such thing a too much love.
Now, take Hannah’s group and marry it to Justin’s HUGE group of devoted and loving friends….well, you get the party of a lifetime. And, that’s just what it was.
Their wedding reception was one for the books folks. They partied until the very last moment…until we ushered them out for the final private dance for the couple followed by a sparkler exit. For as many people that were involved in this day, not a single argument ensued nor did anyone step out of line for all the dancing, drinking and partying. It was seriously a wedding of the year.
Hannah and Justin, wow. Just WOW. What a DAY! You two are such kind and caring, FUN people. It has been amazing getting to know you over the last year. I’m so glad I finally got to meet all of your people. Justin, your mom has been following along my journey since your engagement session….man, does she love you! You both are so lucky to have such amazing role models for love in your lives. I am not quite sure I have ever met two people so loved entirely and ferociously by ALL their people. I hope you know just how lucky you are. You can add me to your numbers because I simply adore everything about both of you. I was ecstatic to be a part in your amazing wedding day. I will never forget it! I hope you love this sample of photos from you fantastic wedding day. And, because I know how hard it is to wait, there will be a surprise in your inbox later today!
