Brittany & Logan's Oak Grove Wedding at Jorgensen Farms in Westerville, Ohio

Brittany and Logan were married at Oak Grove at Jorgensen Farms in Westerville, Ohio, on Saturday, August 22, 2026. Their Oak Grove Jorgensen Farms wedding had two first looks, a ceremony under a glass roof, and a sparkler exit that closed the night.

Oak Grove sits on a working farm just outside Columbus, with a Lord & Burnham greenhouse, a pond, a barn and gardens all within a short walk. We have filmed more than 30 weddings across Jorgensen Farms, and every one finds a different corner of it. If you are planning here, this is what a full day of wedding videography in Westerville can look like.

Getting ready: Mom, the dress and a few small details

The morning started with the details: the invitation suite, pearl shoes, ring boxes on a details card, and a ring tucked into Brittany's bouquet. Then her mom helped her into the dress, zipping it while a bridesmaid worked the buttons. Brittany was smiling the whole time.

Across the property, Logan's best man fixed his tie and pinned his boutonniere. His tie had a small patch with a photo sewn into it, a detail I made sure to get close. In the film I cut back and forth between Brittany's dress and Logan's prep, so both sides of the morning move together instead of one after the other.

Two first looks: Dad, then Logan

Brittany's first look was with her dad. She waited with her back to him, he walked up, and when she turned around he pulled her into a long hug. Then came a first touch with Logan: the two of them on either side of a wall, holding hands without seeing each other.

From the edit: we had two cameras on both moments, synced together. I cut between the angles every few seconds so you always see the face reacting, and kept one camera's sound running underneath, so every word stays continuous while the picture changes.

A greenhouse ceremony at Oak Grove

Guests walked in past the welcome sign framed through the greenhouse glass and a "forever starts here" sign. Program fans sat on the chairs with tulle, baby's breath marked the aisle, and florals hung from the glass roof over the arch. One chair held a memorial sign that read "I will be there."

The officiant built the message around grace and gave the couple a prayer box, to be filled with prayers from their guests by the end of the night. Brittany and Logan then shared their own vows, each one personal, funny in places, and clearly theirs.

We filmed the ceremony with three cameras: one at the back of the aisle, one at the front facing the guests, and a locked wide angle from the side. For the processional, I only cut to an angle once it was steady. If a camera was still moving, I cut to the wide angle for a beat and came straight back, so you never see a pan on screen.

Couple portraits by the pond and the barn

After the ceremony we took Brittany and Logan around the farm. They laughed under a big tree, shared a close kiss by the pond, and leaned into each other by the barn. Under the veil, a dip and a kiss became one of the strongest shots of the day.

Oak Grove gives you water, trees and old wood within a few minutes of each other. That variety is why it shows up on our list of favorite places to film around Columbus.

Bridal party and family

The groomsmen walked toward us through the field, laughing the whole way. The bridesmaids huddled in close, the flower girls twirled in front of them, and the whole bridal party jumped and cheered together in the greenhouse.

Family time mattered just as much. We filmed Brittany with both parents, then with her parents and sister, Logan with his parents, his family group, the large family group, and both families together with the couple. From the edit: I keep each of these combinations in the full film, because years from now those are the frames families look for first.

Cocktail hour on the patio

While guests mingled under the string lights, Brittany and Logan signed their marriage license with the officiant and a witness. Guests left Polaroids in the guestbook and lined up at the ice cream cart. One of my favorite quiet moments was the couple on a video call with a grandparent, both of them holding the phone close.

Reception details that told their story

The reception room told the story of their relationship. Photo easels traced their years together from 2017 to 2026, and a memorial table held photos and candles. There was a seating chart marked B|L, a cake with a Mr & Mrs topper, macarons and cookies with their initials, sunglasses as favors, and a pink signature cocktail at the sweetheart table.

A mirror welcome sign and a neon sign set the tone as guests walked in. In the film, the neon sign is the shot that carries you from the details into the reception.

Grand entrance, toasts, first dance and cake

The reception opened with the grand entrance, then the toasts. We record toasts on a dedicated audio recorder, so every speech in the film is clear. Then came the first dance, the parent dances (with a spin from Mom), the cake cutting, and a dance off that had the room yelling.

Evening portraits by the glass house

Before the party took over, we stole Brittany and Logan for a few minutes. They had a private dance alone in the empty room under the lights, then walked out to the garden. In front of the greenhouse glowing at night, Logan twirled and dipped Brittany, and she held up their rings with the lights behind them.

Open dancing and a sparkler exit

Then the dance floor filled. Guests waved glowing wands under purple and teal lights, the bridesmaids sang along, Logan danced in sunglasses, and Brittany's dad danced harder than anyone. The night ended with a sparkler tunnel, a slow motion dip and kiss, and one last walk out.

If you are still deciding whether video is worth it, nights like this are the answer. Here is what couples wish they knew about hiring a videographer.

Frequently asked questions

What is an Oak Grove wedding at Jorgensen Farms like?

Oak Grove is one of the venues on Jorgensen Farms, a working farm at 5851 E Walnut St in Westerville. It has a Lord & Burnham greenhouse, a Main Hall, an open air patio and a courtyard, plus a pond, a barn and gardens for portraits. It holds up to 250 guests (WeddingWire listing).

Where are the best portrait spots at Oak Grove?

For Brittany and Logan we used the pond, a big shade tree, the barn and the gardens. After dark, the greenhouse glows from the inside, which makes a beautiful background for a twirl or a dip.

Is a greenhouse ceremony hard to film?

The glass gives you soft daylight, but the light changes as clouds pass and the background can run bright. We set exposure for faces, put cameras at the back, front and side of the aisle, and match the cameras' color and brightness in the edit so every angle looks like the same moment. More on working with natural light.

Can you film two first looks on the same day?

Yes. With two cameras on each first look, we sync the angles in the edit and cut between them, so you see both faces. Plan about 10 to 15 minutes for each one in your timeline.



Do you offer photography at Jorgensen Farms too?

Yes. Our team covers both photo and video, so one crew plans the day and works together at Oak Grove and The Gardens. See our Columbus wedding photography for examples and coverage.
