Dayton Ohio Firefighter Wedding At A Kettering Indoor-Outdoor Reception

How The Bride Made This My First Dayton Ohio Firefighter Wedding

Saturday’s Polen Farm wedding was filled with firefighters and fun people and was my first Dayton Ohio Firefighter Wedding.  The bride and groom arrived at Polen Farm / Polen Farms for their wedding reception in a vintage fire truck.  The bride had arranged a vintage firetruck rental and had alerted me. After the church wedding ceremony, we went outside to watch the groom’s surprise. He was blown away. The wedding couple got in the truck and drove away.

The grounds of Polen Farm / Polen Farms are beautiful and provide an elegant backdrop for wedding photographs in and around Dayton, Ohio.  All had a good time and enjoyed City Barbecue’s catering while dancing the night away in this rustic, chic barn wedding setting.  This was my first Dayton Ohio firefighter wedding, and it did not disappoint!

During the reception at Polen Farm, we gathered several guests for outdoor photos. Several guests were firefighters and brought their helmets to the reception. Many wedding photos are of these people in their helmets. This was such a fun and unique wedding.

While I didn’t get to ride the fire truck, I did get to photograph the wedding couple in front of it.  The couple rode from the wedding to the reception in the cab of the truck.  What a cool unique touch to this wedding!  This was the first time a fire truck was at a wedding of mine, but (future me here) there were two other instances. Once, a DJ’s smoke machine set off the fire alarms.  The other instance was another false alarm at a golf course.
