holy name of jesus & angus barn wedding – natalie & joseph

2020 has been a fantastic year for people who like a bit of excitement in their wedding planning! Despite the uncertainty with everything going on, Natalie and Joseph have always been the epitome of calm and patience as they put together their Holy Name of Jesus & Angus Barn wedding day. With fluctuating guest limits, a last-minute change of reception venue and everything else being thrown at them, they never let it get them down and were always positive things were going to move forward no matter what. With two Catholic bishops and a monsignor officiating their beautiful ceremony, they definitely had a pretty strong team praying for everything to run smoothly!

As it turned out, their wedding day was as gorgeous as anyone could wish for; Holy Name of Jesus is a simply spectacular venue for a wedding and The Pavilion at Angus Barn is a perfect setting for a reception. The sun shone and, under a beautiful sunset, we were able to get some lovely portraits of the bride and groom, their friends and family.

Natalie and Joseph have a very strong and loving family around them and that was evident in the interactions that took place all throughout the day. It was a pleasure photographing their gorgeous wedding and I wish them all the very best for a long and happy life together!
