Some wedding days, you just feel deep down in your bones. They’re filled with joy so contagious it lingers long after the last dance, and love so steady it’s impossible to miss. That was Lynsie and Chase’s wedding day.

Their story started in a place most wouldn’t expect, a bar in West Virginia. When Lynsie started talking football, not just casually but really knowing the players, the plays, the game itself, he was smitten. He’ll tell you he fell in love right then and there. It didn’t matter that he’s a diehard Eagles fan and she’s a passionate Chiefs fan; if anything, that playful rivalry has only added fire and fun to their love story.

The morning began at the beautiful Sneed House in Centralia. Lynsie and her bridesmaids laughed, shared stories, and soaked in every moment together. The team from Studio Bride St Louis worked their magic, adding sparkle to the beauty Lynsie already carried so effortlessly. In the corner, her gown by Essence of Australia waited like a secret gift, and when she finally stepped into it, time seemed to pause. Tears rolled, hugs were shared, and her bridesmaids’ faces told the whole story: she was stunning.

Out at the family farm, the guys had their own brand of celebration. Golf cart rides, lifting challenges, and the kind of camaraderie that only comes from lifelong friendships filled the air. They were loud, joyful, and full of energy, exactly how every groom’s morning should be.

Before the ceremony, Lynsie and Chase chose to share a “first touch.” They didn’t see each other, but with hands joined and heads bowed, they prayed together. In that quiet moment, you could feel their anticipation, two hearts ready for forever.

When it was time, the ceremony began with the sweet sound of violinist Leah Rolfson. The wedding party entered, and then the doors opened. Lynsie stepped forward, radiant against a backdrop of lush greenery and vibrant florals. Chase’s face lit up, the kind of look every bride dreams of, and in that moment the whole world seemed to fade away. Their vows, their promises, were filled with such authenticity that you knew this marriage was built to last.

After the “I dos,” the celebration spilled into portraits that were anything but posed. The wedding party was a blast—laughing, cheering, and making every frame unforgettable. Chase willingly stepped into the spotlight for a new video idea, proving again that he’s not afraid to have fun.

And Lynsie and Chase together? Pure magic. Their kisses, their laughter, their playful whispers, they weren’t just taking photos, they were living their love story in real time. (And yes, Chapstick was definitely needed with all the smooching I encouraged!)

The reception, held under a glowing tent from Rodgers Rental, felt warm and welcoming, like stepping into a space made just for them. A sweetheart table filled with thoughtful details, a cake echoing the ceremony’s blooms, a silo bar, and an old truck keeping beers chilled, every detail was perfect. And then came the showstopper: tacos from Dos Arcos. (Because honestly, is there a better wedding meal than tacos?)

The evening unfolded with heartfelt speeches, a first dance that made time slow, and laughter that echoed across the farm. And in true Eagles fashion, Chase and his guys pulled off a full “Tush Push” on the dance floor, proving this wedding would be one no one would forget.

Chase and Lynsie, your day was more than beautiful; it was a reflection of who you are. Joyful. Grounded. Playful. Full of faith. Thank you for letting us walk alongside you as you stepped into forever. We pray for countless blessings on your marriage and the extraordinary life you will build together.


Hugs to you both! 💕
