Jessica and Tabel’s Rustic July Wedding

Jessica and Tabel’s rustic July wedding in Lancaster, PA, is what dreams are made of. From the photographer: “Their love story is so beautiful and has so many facets to it that I’m almost afraid to share it, for fear that I won’t portray it as amazing as what it really is. I will try my best. Being a wedding photographer has a lot of perks, but probably the biggest one is the amazing people you meet. When those people become friends, it is an extra special blessing. From the first time I talked with Jess and Tabel, I knew there was something special about them. They have a sincere love for people that radiates from their hearts and draws you in, making you feel like family. Their story is exceptional, as was their wedding.”

For Jess and Tabel, their rustic July wedding was a dream come true. They had picked the Stoltzfus Homestead and Gardens as their venue. Both being from New Jersey, they were used to the big city, country club-style weddings, and wanted something different. Stoltzfus was perfect for them. They had use of the entire facility, including the Tobacco Barn, the Grand Barn, and the Gardens.

From the photographer: “It was truly one of the most beautiful and heartfelt weddings I’ve been a part of. The forecast called for rain, but instead, it ended up being one of the hottest and most humid days of July. Looking at their beautiful photos, you’d think it was a perfect spring day. Everyone looked amazing! Tabel, known for his impeccable taste in clothing and fashion, chose the groomsmen’s outfits. Their blue suits blended well with the silver-sage dresses that Jess had chosen for her bridesmaids.”
