Cowboy hats, boots and beautiful country views was a favorite for this rustic wedding at Montagu Meadows Wedding Venue.  Karlie and Gary tied the knot on October 4, 2025, surrounded by their closest family and friends. And let me tell you, they had a great time at this affordable Maryland barn wedding venue located west of Baltimore. What started as a cool, crisp morning turned into a day of beautiful fall weather. It was the kind of golden sunshine and colorful leaves and gardens that make October weddings at Montagu Meadows Wedding Venue so special.

 

Karlie and Gary’s love story began eight years ago, when they met while hanging out with a group of friends at a truck and car meet. They’ve been inseparable ever since.   Karlie even shared that she moved in with Gary just

five months after they started dating, and they’ve never left each other’s side.

 

Their beautiful ceremony took place at Pond View, one of the most picturesque spots on the property located in Westminster, MD. The well maintain landscaping and the brick paver patio overlooking the pond and stream sets this ceremony space apart.  The view is even great at night with the fountain lights.  But for Karlie and Gary, this day was made even more meaningful as John, her mother’s boss, officiated the ceremony, adding a heartfelt and personal touch.

 

Their Fall wedding colors were rust, orange, and blue with gold accents which created the perfect warm and inviting autumn palette. Karlie looked stunning

in her Morilee bridal gown from Cameo Bridal, while her bridesmaids wore beautiful dresses they found on Amazon. The groom and groomsmen kept things relaxed and true to their style in baseball hats, button-down shirts, and jeans. Karlie’s father got out his cowboy hat which made this country style wedding even more perfect with the rustic theme.

 

The couple added so many thoughtful and personal touches throughout their day. Guests found their seats using a handmade pallet seating chart, and his-and-her favorite candy bags made the sweetest wedding favors. One of the most unique details was their guest book which was a large canvas print of one of their favorite engagement photos taken right here at Montagu Meadows, which guests signed with warm wishes and memories.  Lauren from Best Day Events offered her expertise, support, decorating skills, and invaluable advice before and during the wedding.

great food, drinks, and a packed dance floor all night long. Memories by Meme captured every special moment, and dessert was a delicious display from Nothing Bundt Cakes, featuring a large Bundt cake surrounded by mini Bundts for guests.

 

For the setup, Elite Tent and Events provided a 40x40 framed tent on the patio, creating a cozy and elegant space for cocktails and dancing. A friend of the bride did hair and makeup, making the morning easy and filled with laughter.

 

As the night came to a close, Karlie and Gary’s guests lit up the evening with a glow stick send-off, sending the newlyweds off in style as they began their next adventure, a honeymoon in Punta Cana.

 

Karlie and Gary’s wedding was a perfect blend of rustic charm, joyful celebration, and personal touches, and family focused.  This was a day that
