MORGAN & DAVID’S RUSTIC BARN WEDDING IN GOSHEN, IN | DJ

Goshen College graduates, Morgan and David, met in school and fell in love with the Goshen community and all it has to offer.  Morgan knew she wanted to utilize many local Goshen vendors for her wedding, which took place at the lovely new Meadow Brook Barn in the rolling pastoral countryside just outside of Goshen, Indiana.  Sticky Boots was the obvious choice for entertainment, along with the barn venue, photographer Shalmai Keim, and a tasty authentic Mexican buffet from Los Primos.   

The vistas and photo opportunities at Meadow Brook Barn are nearly endless, and the property owner, Kori, has taken care of every detail in the recent renovation to the property, from a super-cute outdoor bar and cocktail area, to the ceremony gazebo, easy on-site parking, and of course the barn itself which is clean, and most importantly AIR CONDITIONED and heated, making it a truly year-round venue.  There are modern electrical and restroom facilities, but the entire property still retains a very rustic, vintage feel, which is really the best of both worlds.

Morgan and David are both heavily involved in music and chose to incorporate many fun music elements into their celebration.  The ceremony featured a full choir of musical friends from Goshen College and Sticky Boots’ custom-produced medleys for both their first dance and parent dances.

Nearly 200 guests came to the barn on a day that threatened storms but stayed dry for the outdoor ceremony.  As if right on cue, the sun even made an appearance over the cornfield later in the evening, just in time for sunset photos with the newlyweds!  

After dinner and desert, David and Morgan wowed their guests with a fully choreographed first dance, then parent dances, an anniversary dance, and a super fun toss that, unlike a traditional bouquet toss, was open to ALL the guests and involved tossing a stuffed dog named “Clarence”.   Sticky Boots rocked the young crowd with hits and 80’s GC party favorites like “Take On Me” and “Africa” before wrapping up the night and sending the happy couple off to their honeymoon in Costa Rica.    So much fun!
