October Rock Creek Farm Wedding :: Real Frederick Wedding :: Ashley + Chad

Ashley and Chad met through mutual friends three years ago. “We had the same friends for years and when we got together we realized how many times our paths crossed or just barely did in the years leading up to our first date.”

In the summer of 2018, Chad worked with a local escape room to plan the perfect proposal. “He added his own clue into the mix, and let’s just say it was the best treasure I could have found.”

One hundred and eighty guests, including a ten-person wedding party, joined the couple in celebrating their October 2019 nuptials. “A local ukulelist played the ceremony music by the pond while we said our vows under a whimsical arch in front of the pond’s fountain.”

The couple chose a “down-to-earth, laid- back feel” for their wedding decor. “Our guest book was one of my favorite details. Each guest was to took a stone to hold during the ceremony to soak in the good vibes, well wishes, and love. At the reception, they were to put their name on their rock and drop it in the mason jars provided. It’s now a decoration in our living room that I love looking at every day.”

Ashley is the director of operations at a Goddard School and Chad works in sales. They currently reside in New Oxford, Pennsylvania.

Summer Rock Creek Farm Wedding :: Real Frederick Wedding :: Ryan + Katherine

Ryan and Katherine attended Linganore high school together but didn’t meet until after graduating, through mutual friends. “We have been together since 2011. We started dating our sophomore year in college.”

Ryan proposed during the Christmas season in 2017 with both of their families present. “It was perfect. He strung lights up on the back gate at his parent’s house that said ‘Will you marry me’ and had champagne on the table. I was in total shock.”

One hundred twenty-five guests attended their June 2019 nuptials, including a nine-person wedding party. “Our ceremony was short and sweet. A family friend of ours married us, and it was right in front of the pond. It was a beautiful day.”

The couple chose a coral and floral theme for their wedding decor. “Rene from Blossom and Basket and my mother really helped with the color scheme and rentals. Having the barn made it laid-back but also formal. We wanted everyone to have a good time and to be comfortable.”

The couple looked at several wedding venues. “We wanted a brewery that had more of a rustic feel, but they never could hold enough people. My mom heard of the venue we chose; it was very new at the time. It was the last one we looked at, and right when we got there, we both knew it was the one. We decided on a June wedding because we are summer people.”

Ryan is a digital signal processing engineer, and Katherine is a laboratory technician. The couple resides in Jefferson, Maryland.
