Our Add-Ons in Action
The Farm Tour
Want to make your wedding photos truly unforgettable? Paul’s Paradise at Paul Tree Farms offers a Farm Tour experience unlike anything else — a chance to step off the beaten path and into one of Central Illinois’s most stunning natural settings. For just $250, you and your photographer get a full hour to explore the property and capture moments that will last a lifetime.
A Landscape That Changes With the Seasons
No two Farm Tours look alike, because the land itself tells a different story depending on when you visit. Spring brings blossoming trees and soft, romantic light perfect for portraits. August transforms the fields into a sea of golden sunflowers — warm, bright, and full of life. And come fall, the farm puts on a show of rich, vivid color that makes every shot look like it was pulled from a painting.
Designed for Photographers, Built for Memories
The Farm Tour isn’t just a walk through a pretty field — it’s a curated hour-long journey through the property’s most photogenic spots. Your photographer will have everything they need to capture a wide range of looks, from delicate floral details to sweeping open landscapes, all without leaving the grounds. It’s the kind of variety most venues simply can’t offer.
