Stunning Settings for Your Ceremony Location

Julia had chosen the Star Barn courtyard for her ceremony location. Instead of positioning her guest seating straight across in the courtyard like we usually do, she chose to turn the benches at a 45-degree angle, so they were facing the corner of the stonewalled area. Three elegant black iron urns full of summer florals created the backdrop for the couple, and the guests could see more of the beautiful white buildings of The Star Barn Village. This clever idea provided a fresh look for a ceremony in the courtyard.

Another bride who thought outside of the box was Abbey. Her ceremony location was at the Liberty Lake Gazebo in front of the Star Barn. Traditionally, the bridal party stands in front of this stunning white gazebo with its hanging flower baskets and large urns overflowing with white flowers and greenery. However, Abby wanted her guests to be treated to the full view of The Star Barn Village and all its beauty. By simply moving her guest benches to the right of the gazebo, Abbey had an exquisite ceremony backdrop with a view of The Star Barn Village, the Liberty Spring House, and the fountain on Liberty Lake which is the home of Lincoln the swan. The result was stunning! Abbey added white stands with flowers to complete the look. The beautiful gazebo was not forgotten but was utilized in a clever way. It provided the perfect greeting area for guests to drop off their gifts and cards and to grab a cool drink prior to the ceremony.
