Karen and Patrick's wedding at Fern Hill Barn in Spencer, MA, was a beautiful celebration of love and family. Formerly known as Zukas Hilltop Barn, this venue provided a beautiful backdrop for a day full of memorable moments, despite the unpredictable weather. The weather was all over the place, ranging from blazing hot to pouring rain with thunder and lightning. But in the end, it delivered a beautiful rainbow and a gorgeous sunset!


The wedding party consisted of Karen and Patrick's children, showcasing the strong family bonds and the love shared by everyone. It was clear how much everyone cared for this sweet couple, making the day even more special. A highlight of their celebration was Karen and Patrick's perfectly choreographed first dance. They looked wonderful on the dance floor as we listened to their recorded vows while their song played and the rain poured down. They really did dance in the rain! 


The wedding decor featured stunning purple flowers and details, adding elegance and charm to the day. These thoughtful touches perfectly complemented the natural beauty of Fern Hill Barn. From heartfelt vows to lively dancing, every moment of Karen and Patrick's wedding was filled with love and joy. Despite the weather's ups and downs, the day was unforgettable.
