The day began with the buzz of excitement as Alexis got ready with her bridal party in the barn’s charming bridal suite. Despite a small hiccup—a quick fix to her wedding dress that delayed the ceremony slightly—Alexis remained radiant and composed. If anything, it was a testament to the couple’s ability to navigate challenges with grace and laughter, setting the tone for their life together.


One of the most emotional moments of the day came during Alexis and Alex’s first touch. With a wall between them, the couple held hands and exchanged a few heartfelt words without seeing each other. Alexis gifted Alex a pendant engraved with an image of their beloved dog, Moose, who had passed away earlier this year. The gesture brought Alex to tears and was a touching reminder of the love and memories they shared with their furry family member.
