Vows at Vanderbeck Valley Farm
This year I spent the 4th of July with Sydney and Ryan and their friends & family at Vanderbeck Valley Farm.
The venue, located just outside of Silverton, OR, is owned and operated by one of Sydney's family members. She told me that they hold their family reunions out there and that is exactly how I would describe this day. It felt like a big family BBQ and was relaxed with ample space for kids to play and throw frisbees, family to mingle, cows to pet (!) and gorgeous space for the ceremony itself.
My favorite spot was the hidden forest area behind the ceremony. It was shaded and cool, hydrangeas were in bloom and it was perfect for photos and private vows.
Sydney and Ryan wanted to wrap their wedding day up early to catch fireworks, so our time was short but we did have fun!
