A Cute British Wedding at St Mary’s Church in Stowmarket Followed by a DIY Marquee
Paul & Jackie’s Wedding at Red Barns Farm near Pullman, WA: Stripping, Sweet Stands & Pez!
We are absolutely loving this fun and fashion filled wedding, photographed by the talented Ross James in Washington!
The personal pez heads are our favourite! And the glass coke bottles! Oh and the sweet stand! Dammit…we love it all!
Here’s what Ross had to say about the day:
“Paul and Jackie’s wedding took place at Red Barns Farm near Pullman, WA. Paul is a fellow wedding photographer, so we knew this day was going to be different. And it was. He was willing to do anything we suggested, no matter how crazy the request. So there was plenty of leaping, ninja skills, and stripping. While shooting the cake cutting, he turned to a relative and said, “Please move over a little bit so the photographer can get the shot.” Really?! That’s never happened before. It was awesome! Both Paul and Jackie expressed an interest in fashion focused wedding photos so we brought a bunch of magazine ads for inspiration. The wedding guests were festive, the mood was cozy, and it was a great wedding overall.”
Enjoy! ♥
Looked like an incredible day!

Why We LOVE the idea of a Wedding at Red Barns Farm near Pullman
Nestled near Pullman, WA, Red Barns Farm is a treasure trove of rustic charm. Picture this: a barn straight out of a storybook, with a rich red hue that pops against the verdant countryside. It’s a venue that evokes a simpler time, a nod to the American pastoral tradition.
Now, I’ve attended my fair share of weddings, from grandiose ballrooms to sleek urban rooftops. But there’s something undeniably cozy and authentic about a barn wedding. The setting feels like a well-worn pair of jeans; comfortable, familiar, yet capable of turning heads when paired with the right flair. You know, the kind that makes you feel at home, but in a way that’s dressed up for the occasion.
The Palouse Palette
The Palouse region, with its undulating hills and fields, paints a picturesque backdrop that changes with the seasons. It’s like Mother Nature’s mood ring, shifting from emerald greens in the spring to golden waves in the fall. For couples who adore nature, this setting is a canvas that needs little else—a sunset here feels almost orchestrated, with shades of pink and orange dappling the sky.
In my experience, there’s a profound sense of peace that comes from saying your vows surrounded by such vastness. It’s as if the world pauses, offering its silent approval as you embark on your new journey.
Sustainability with a Smile
What truly sets Red Barns Farm apart is their commitment to sustainability. This isn’t just a buzzword here; it’s a way of life. They prioritize local products, support nearby businesses, and ensure their operations are as green as possible. It’s like having your cake and eating it too, except the cake is sourced from a local baker who uses ingredients from her garden.
I remember attending a wedding there where the menu boasted fresh, local produce. There’s something particularly heartwarming about knowing your celebration is contributing positively to the community.
Friendly Folks and Finer Details
Finally, the staff at Red Barns Farm deserves a shout-out. They’re the kind of folks who greet you like an old friend, making sure every detail, no matter how small, is perfect. From coordinating with vendors to arranging last-minute changes, they handle it all with a smile.
It reminds me of a time when a couple I knew decided on a whim to add a surprise fireworks display. The team at Red Barns didn’t bat an eye; they made it happen seamlessly, adding a dazzling surprise that capped off an already magical day.
In essence, Red Barns Farm is more than just a venue; it’s a place where stories are written, memories are crafted, and love is celebrated in the most authentic way possible. It’s a setting that embodies the very heart of what a wedding should be: a joyous, meaningful celebration of two lives coming together, against a backdrop as timeless as the commitment itself.
