Rustic Wedding at the Black Diamond Ranch | Sarah & Roger
Black Diamond Ranch | Lecanto, Florida
There are some people who, even after only meeting them briefly, make you feel as if you’ve always been family. Sarah is that beautiful trait personified. Call it southern hospitality. Call it whatever you like. Sarah embodies it and showers that welcoming, embracing warmth over everyone she meets. The love in her eyes for Roger can be seen from miles away and the silent strength and security they find in their relationship is inspiring just to be near. Not only did Sarah and Roger let us free to create and document, they welcomed us completely and made us feel like part of the family. We are so completely spoiled and blessed by our clients.
I’m so excited to finally share this wedding with all of you! I feel like this has been a long time coming. I can still remember first speaking with Sarah on the phone months and months ago. I remember her telling me about her plans and their venue and having no idea what to expect. (Because honestly, Lecanto isn’t really a well-known location here in Florida.) But, when we got there we felt like we had been transported for away. The ranch boasts a ceremony location overlooking a natural limestone quarry. (Think: CLIFFS IN FLORIDA!) Sarah left no detail behind and blew us away with her cozy yet elegant rustic decor (most of which was DIY) and with Lauren Grove of The Design Grove coordinating the day, there was nothing but smooth sailing.
Nate’s FAVORITE
We were kind of in love with the quarry and the wind. They were kind of in love with each other. ;)
GORGEOUS.
This makes me smile every time I see it.
This reminds me of a children’s storybook. The light coming through those trees with glorious.
We got assaulted by sandspurs during portrait time so we decided to give them a starring role in our ring shot.
I loved the place cards! Sarah even had two made for Nate and I. We felt so special!
Almost all of our Oct/Nov weddings have had the Florida games playing at some point. I think this was the moment they won.
