About Thyme Farm Door County Weddings

When you think of a wedding at About Thyme Farm, a rustic barn nestled in Bailey’s Harbor, what do you envision? We’ve seen a classic tented wedding, a lush vibrant floral wedding, a clean and crisp wedding, and more – all at this natural barn venue!

Maybe that’s one of the best things about a rustic space. You can dress it up with romance and soft blooms, lean into the rustic vibe, or let the beautiful barn structure do the talking and keep things simple.

Sharing a few of our favorites here, in hopes this post provides you with inspiration for your own barn wedding… whether it happens to be at Door County’s own About Thyme Farm, or another venue!

An Elegant, Romantic Barn Wedding in Door County

About Thyme Farm’s property includes a large green space, plenty of room to set up a sailcloth tent if you’re hoping to elevate your reception! One of our couples chose to have cocktail hour & dancing in the barn, and dinner in the beautiful white tent. They topped it off with a beautiful Door County sunset and fireworks!

A Lush, Vibrant Door County Wedding

Magenta, peach, pink, and all of the joyful colors were part of this rustic yet elegant wedding! Guests enjoyed cocktails on the grass with soft seating lounge areas before dinner in the barn. Upon entering, they were greeted by a giant wooden seating chart and beautiful floral installation. Gold chairs complimented the gold-rimmed glassware, and long tables with low, colorful arrangements added warmth to the space.

A Simple, Sweet Door County Barn Wedding

When your venue is About Thyme Farm, letting the property do the talking is certainly an option. After their outdoor wedding ceremony by the corn field, guests enjoyed an outdoor cocktail hour followed by dinner in the barn. They were greeted by a table filled with glasses of champagne before finding their seats, where long white table linens were covered with eucalyptus and pops of soft summer flowers.

Lifestyle Newborn Portraits | Baby Blake

One of our very favorite things about portrait photography is seeing our clients families grow. We have had the absolute pleasure of photographing Kristin & Kris from their very first maternity session before their son Jax was born, followed by a few family sessions before their second baby boy, Blake’s newborn session earlier this year. Aside from being such a beautiful family on the inside and out, one thing we love is how well our aesthetic aligns with Kristin and Kris’. Their stunning home is such a dreamy space to capture their love in, and we have loved seeing their handsome boys grow up! To Kristin and Kris, thank you, as always, for the honor of photographing your family!

Madison Family Portrait Session | The Susens

The Susens family is as cute and stylish as they come! We had the pleasure of photographing Kelsey and Dave’s wedding in 2011, and have since photographed their family after the birth of each of their children: Ruby, Olive and Theo. It means so much to us to capture their growing family – thank you Kelsey and Dave!

Milwaukee Art Museum Wedding | Ashlyn & Ryan

When we think of Ashlyn & Ryan’s wedding, an immediate smile comes to our faces! Their day started at the Westin, where the two of them and their wedding party got ready. After the ceremony, we headed to one of our favorite locations for Ashlyn & Ryan’s portraits – Saint Francis de Sales Seminary! Photographing on the long, charming drive bordered with twisty trees is so very inspiring to us. Pair that with a couple as genuine and beautiful as Ashlyn & Ryan, and it’s a recipe for magic!

The Milwaukee Art Museum was our next stop, where Ashlyn & Ryan joined their guests to enjoy cocktail hour under the sun. Soon after, two of our favorite moments of the entire day took place. One: Ashlyn & Ryan’s grand entrance into their reception, where Ryan spun his new bride around in the air and their cuteness + Ashlyn’s stunning Klienfeld’s gown stopped the show! And two: Ryan’s toast about Ashlyn. Each of their loved ones without a doubt FELT the reason we were all there! This day, this celebration was filled with an outpouring of love & support. So heartfelt, so powerful, and we couldn’t adore these two more!!
