The Fall Countryside Wedding of Emalee + Rylee
The fall countryside wedding of Emalee & Rylee was a perfect example of why fall in the countryside is an ideal time to visit 22 Acres Farm. The cooler weather and stunning backdrops made their celebration even more memorable. Last September, surrounded by family and friends, Emalee and Rylee exchanged vows, becoming husband and wife in our beautiful Columbus countryside. This autumn countryside wedding was a breathtaking moment in their love story.

Where Their Story Began
Emalee and Rylee’s love story began over eight years ago at their summer job at the local pool. Emalee worked as an attendant while Rylee was a lifeguard. They instantly connected, and their life together began. After nearly a decade of love and memories, they were ready to take the next step. With their two dogs, Harley and Hazel, by their side, they embarked on a new chapter of their journey together.



The Proposal
When it came time to get down on one knee, Rylee wanted to keep things fun for his partner in crime. In her own words, Emalee shares about their engagement:
“He sent me on a scavenger hunt and at every location there was family waiting for me to send me to the next place and at the end I finally met with Rylee, and he proposed.”



And so, the Adventure Begins
Newly engaged and ready to start the rest of forever together, the happy couple got busy planning their special day. When deciding on decor for their wedding, Emalee and Rylee decided on a “modern farm and rustic” style.
When they stumbled upon 22 Acres Farm, the two shared, “The barn is beautiful, and we both fell in love with it.”



Time to Say, “I Do”
Emalee and Rylee were the first couple to exchange vows in our unique countryside grain bin gazebo, marking a special moment. Surrounded by their loved ones and the stunning backdrop of fall in the countryside, they said, “I Do”, beginning a celebration full of joy. With the barnyard and surrounding fields as their setting, their wedding was the perfect way to start a lifetime of beautiful memories. This autumn countryside ceremony was truly unforgettable.



Décor + Celebrations
In addition to using the beautiful, custom-made cross that we made for one of our previous weddings, Emalee and Rylee used many items from our Something Borrowed Room. This room is available to all our couples at no additional cost, making wedding prep easier and less expensive—something we know is important for so many couples.



Following a cocktail hour, wedding guests welcomed Mr. and Mrs. Kelly and their wedding party to the reception area, followed by a delicious catered BBQ meal—and hours of dancing, toasts, laughter, and celebrations with the many friends, family, and loved ones surrounding them.



From all of us at 22 Acres Farm, we sincerely thank you for choosing us to host your wedding-day celebrations. We’re always moved by a beautiful love story, and yours is no exception. Your wedding amidst the beauty of fall in the countryside created memories that will last a lifetime.
