Roots to River Farm Wedding | Ashley + Chris

Ashley and Chris’ Wedding Reception at Roots to River Farm

New Hope, Pennsylvania

Ashley and Chris’ November wedding was one of those crisp fall days where everything feels still, golden, and just right. Set in beautiful New Hope, Pennsylvania, their celebration blended rustic elegance with heartfelt simplicity.

The day began with getting ready at the always-stunning River House at Odette’s, where Ashley and Chris shared an emotional first look overlooking the river. The backdrop of fall foliage in full color was the perfect setting for their portraits. The vibrant oranges and golds brought warmth to every frame and gave their images that quintessential late-autumn glow.

Afterwards, they made their way to Roots to River Farm, a hidden gem tucked into Bucks County. This intimate venue was the ideal spot for their close-knit celebration. The team at the farm prepared a warm, welcoming environment where friends and family gathered to honor Ashley and Chris with love, laughter, and plenty of joy.

With a small guest list and a relaxed pace, the reception felt more like a cozy dinner party among loved ones. The food was locally sourced and beautifully catered by the Roots to River team, with every detail cared for thoughtfully. Guests shared toasts, stories, and connection as the sun set beyond the trees.

This wedding was a perfect reminder that meaningful moments don’t always come with fanfare. Sometimes they’re found in the quiet exchanges, the warm embraces, and the natural beauty of the season.

As a Philadelphia and New Hope wedding photographer, documenting weddings like Ashley and Chris’ is such a gift. The authenticity and closeness of their day made it a standout celebration to remember.
