Sydnie & Brad’s Culturally Rich Wedding Celebration at One C Barn
Family traveled in from all over — including Sydnie’s family from Hawaii — bringing with them meaningful cultural traditions. The ceremony incorporated a salt bath for the rings, the symbolic three-cord rope tying, and heartfelt words from Sydnie’s brother, who officiated the ceremony in traditional attire.
Sydnie wore a breathtaking non-traditional black wedding gown that shimmered with gold-accented stars and intricate detailing. It was a bold and stunning reflection of her personality and heritage, and it turned heads in the most magical way.
Friends and family spent the day together like one big reunion. Some smoked meat for hours ahead of the reception, and before dinner, guests played games — laughter echoing across the venue. Every element was filled with intention and love.
Capturing this wedding at 1C Barn — a venue I adore — made this day even more meaningful. From tradition and elegance to community and joy, this wedding reminded me exactly why I do what I do. Sydnie and Brad, thank you for letting me be part of such a beautiful chapter in your story.

“Sarah was INCREDIBLE at capturing the vibe of our big day. We wanted something ethereal and eerie combined with obvious bits of the joy and love we all felt at our wedding and she nailed it. She checked in with us every single month leading up to the big day, was very thorough in her questions to ensure we got what we wanted and on the day of she went above and beyond to help us remember the day for all it was. She is so easy to talk to and to work with and made us feel very comfortable throughout. Working with her is like working with a friend. She also got our gallery back to us lightning fast and the personal touches on the USB she will send you really seal the deal. I can’t recommend Sarah/Vintage Violets enough. Thank you, Sarah!!!”
