I am honored to have been a part of Nick & Jenna’s Farmington Polo Club wedding! These two got married back in 2020 because as we all know that Covid may have changed our way of lives but it didn’t stop us from moving forward. So after a reschedule or two we found our way…
Tim and Sara had such a beautiful Stonehurst wedding! They decided to take full advantage of the property by utilizing the mansion for getting ready, ceremony in the new wooded location and then reception in the barns.
