Pride is More Than a Celebration- It’s a Powerful Reminder that Visibility Matters

We’re honored to share & highlight the incredible love stories of our LGBTQIA+ couples as we plan their best day ever!

Caitlin & Sara’s Love Story!

We’re so excited to be part of Caitlin and Sara’s wedding journey here at The Barns at Wesleyan Hills! Their story is full of unexpected moments and special connections, and we’re honored to help bring their celebration to life in a space that feels just right for them.

“We met online. Sara didn’t even know she still had a dating app, but received an email from Hinge while she was away on a family vacation. It said “Caitlin likes you. We think you would be a top match!” Turns out, we were a match. And fun fact, we share the same birthday…with our ten month old son celebrating his birthday only one day later. We are looking forward to the wedding at the barns and sharing our love with all our favorite people. Happy Pride Month!”

Dimitri Brewster

Dimitri is thrilled to be joining the Connecticut wedding group at the start of the 2025 season. He is joining us with what he likes to call “northern drive and southern hospitality”. The last 10 years in Charleston, South Carolina has given him experience in cooperate events, weddings, and restaurant management. He has also worked to help build and train teams from the ground up to produce the best experience internally and client facing.

His combined experience and passion in hospitality, and his degree in Interior Design help him to produce and execute beautifully detailed and thought out weddings from start to finish.

Wedding days can come with a whirlwind of emotions and seem to come to an end in the blink of an eye. Part of what Dimitri loves best is working closely with couples and their families to help navigate through those emotions on the special day, and to incorporate moments to pause and capture the beauty that comes with getting married!
