A Rustic-Chic Wedding at Weston Red Barn Farm in Weston, Missouri

Sarah (28 and an interior designer) and Josh Bird (28 and a medical illustrator and animator) met on the crew team in college. "Who knew that walking into 5:30 a.m. practice with your hair in a messy bun, no makeup and cutoff sweatpants would attract my future husband," Sarah says. Years later, when they set out to plan their wedding, Sarah and Josh stumbled upon Weston Red Barn Farm in Weston, Missouri, not far from Sarah's hometown, Kansas City, Missouri. "It was the perfect match," Sarah says. "We had our ceremony outside on a hill overlooking the hills, fields and pastures of Missouri and the reception was just down the hill in a barn that opened to let the summer breeze and sunshine in." In keeping with their rustic barn setting, the couple outfitted their day in DIY details and heirlooms, including Sarah's grandparents' wedding cake topper. —Meghan Overdeep
