An Elegant, Modern Vineyard Wedding at Junto Wine | Kacie & Josh

There is something incredibly poetic about a love story that goes the distance. Kacie and Josh first met as freshmen in the dorms at Nebraska Wesleyan University, and last Saturday, they officially stepped into a brand-new chapter as Mr. and Mrs. Wild.

Their celebration at Junto Wine was a masterclass in modern, elegant style mixed with effortless, heartfelt joy. As a Nebraska wedding photography and videography team, capturing a love story with such deep local roots at one of our favorite vineyard backdrops is exactly why we do what we do.

From NWU Freshmen to Mr. & Mrs. Wild

Kacie and Josh’s wedding day was completely true to their energy—relaxed, intentional, and incredibly sophisticated. Kacie looked absolutely breathtaking in a gown from Arc Bridal, with her bridal look completed by the Katie Keister at Kiss and Makeup.

From their emotional first look among the lush vines to the lively reception under the stars, the entire day felt completely unscripted. We structured the chronological flow of their timeline alongside their creative team to ensure they never felt like they were on a rigid corporate schedule. Because we managed the logistical layers behind the scenes, Kacie and Josh had the total freedom to just exist in the moment and celebrate with the people who have cheered them on since their college days.

A Scenic Celebration at Junto Wine

Junto Wine provided the perfect canvas for their modern vineyard wedding. Known for its rolling hills, incredible Nebraska sunsets, and refined, rustic-meets-modern aesthetic, the venue allowed us to capture stunning, editorial portraits that feel timeless yet fresh.

Andrew captured the entire day on film, ensuring their cinematic wedding video feels just as vibrant and real as the gallery itself. Guests spent the evening enjoying an incredible dinner from Pork’s Done BBQ, followed by sweet, local treats from 402 Creamery. The dance floor stayed absolutely packed all night long, thanks to the perfect atmosphere curated by Complete Lincoln.
