Star Barn Wedding Pennsylvania | A Love Rekindled | Morgan & Matt


Star Barn Wedding Pennsylvania | A Love Rekindled | Morgan & Matt

As a Pennsylvania and Maryland wedding photographer, I get the privilege of hearing so many amazing love stories — but Morgan and Matt’s? Theirs is the kind that sticks with you. It’s layered with friendship, timing, and a love that waited for just the right moment to bloom.

Let’s dive into their story — from high school math classes to a Christmas morning proposal with a ring wrapped around baby Jesus (yes, you read that right!).


Star Barn Wedding Pennsylvania

From Friends to Forever

Morgan and Matt’s story began in high school. Morgan transferred to a new school during her sophomore year and often found herself in math class with Matt. They quickly became good friends — the kind who made each other laugh and genuinely enjoyed spending time together. But they were always dating other people, so nothing ever blossomed romantically.

Morgan even played basketball with Matt’s sister, who often hinted that the two would make a great couple. Still, life had other plans. After high school, Matt visited Morgan at college to watch her play ball. The timing wasn’t right — they had both just come out of long relationships and attended different schools — so they agreed to stay friends.

Everything changed on New Year’s Eve 2020. Morgan reached out, and just like that… everything started again — but this time, it felt different. This time, it felt right.

What They Love Most About Each Other

When asked what they love most about one another, Morgan and Matt’s answers were both beautiful and telling:
• Matt admires Morgan’s selflessness — the quiet, steady way she puts others before herself.
• Morgan adores Matt’s passion for life and creativity — the energy and joy he brings to everything he does.

Their love is built on mutual respect and admiration, a bond that runs much deeper than surface-level attraction.

A Christmas Proposal to Remember ?

Their engagement story is one of the most heartfelt Tash has ever heard — and it deserves to be shared in Morgan’s own words:

“We got engaged on Christmas morning 2022. His original plan was to propose on New Year’s Eve, but my Gram wasn’t doing well, so he changed his plans.

He put an ornament on the tree — the nativity scene — and the ring was around baby Jesus.

He played Mariah Carey’s All I Want for Christmas Is You, looked at me, and said those words through teary eyes.

Honestly? It was perfect. My Gram passed away five days later. His timing… it was everything.”

The sentiment. The thoughtfulness. The emotion. It’s a proposal that no one in their lives will ever forget.

Why They Chose The Star Barn

Morgan and Matt chose to celebrate their wedding at the breathtaking Star Barn — an iconic Pennsylvania venue known for its gothic architecture and timeless charm.

They fell in love with the structure’s unique character and decided to keep their décor minimal to let the venue shine. Their wedding will feature soft, dainty florals, cheesecloth runners, and a heartfelt memory table to honor loved ones who’ve passed.

It’s going to be meaningful, elegant, and true to who they are as a couple.
