Where Are They Now: Casey and Michael Peters

A Love That Started It All

As the years have gone by, our hearts have only grown more grateful for every couple who’s walked through our doors. Each one has left a lasting mark on our story. The relationships we’ve built mean so much to us, and we never want them to end the moment our couples say “I do.”

That’s why we’re so excited to introduce our new blog series: Where Are They Now, a celebration of the incredible couples who have become part of our venue’s story over the years.

We couldn’t think of a better way to begin than with Casey and Michael Peters. They came to us early on, before our venue was even complete, and believed in our vision from the very start. We’ll never forget the first time we met Casey and the spark she brings into a room. Her warmth, her kindness, and her joyful energy instantly made us feel like we’d known her forever.

Their wedding day on July 1, 2023, will forever be one of our favorites. The day was bursting with color, vibrant florals, cheerful details, and the kind of glow that can only come from two people deeply in love. The atmosphere was pure happiness, filled with laughter and surrounded by the kindest, most genuine family and friends. You could feel the love everywhere you turned.

Casey and Michael are the kind of couple who radiate gratitude and joy, the ones who remind us exactly why we love what we do.

Wedding Reflections

What stands out most when you think back to your wedding day?

“Being surrounded by all our family and friends! Knowing that all the people we love were there celebrating and supporting us and our future together.”

Do you have a favorite memory or moment from the day?

“One of our favorite stories to tell about leading up to our big day is that we booked the venue when it was just plywood! On a very cold winter day, Nikki gave us a tour of what was started of the venue and explained the vision the team had for the place. We loved their vision and trusted them 100%, so we decided to book it for our wedding day! It was so fun following along the journey of the venue being completed while planning our wedding. When the big day came, it was amazing seeing everything come together!”

If you could relive one part of your wedding, what would it be?

“It’s hard to just pick one part, but I’d choose our first dance. It was the first time during the day that we slowed down together! We were able to quickly tell each other about our day leading up to saying ‘I do.’”

Any advice you’d give to couples currently planning their wedding?

“Try not to stress about the small things! You truly are the only person who will know if something isn’t quite right. The day goes by so fast, so make sure you and your partner take a moment together to look around and take it all in!”

Family Update

Tell us about your family — any little ones or furry friends since the big day?

“Since being married, we’ve grown our family! We have a 1.5-year-old golden retriever named Briggs who will find any body of water and jump right in. And most recently, we welcomed a little boy into the world in June named Hayden!”

What’s your favorite thing about this new season of life?

“Enjoying all the moments together as a family — creating new memories and traditions. People have always said, ‘time goes by so fast,’ and since having our little boy, we truly can’t believe how fast time goes!”

Casey and Michael, thank you for believing in us from the very beginning and for continuing to be part of our story. Watching your family grow has been such a joy, and we’re endlessly grateful to call you part of The Barn at Sunset Acres family. ❤️
