Four-star eventers Doug Payne, 32, and Jessica Hampf, 29, were married on March 15 at the Ritz-Carlton, Reynolds Plantation, in Greensboro, Ga.

After getting engaged in August of 2013, the couple had to plan around busy schedules and splitting the year between their farm in New Hill, N.C., and their winter base in Aiken, S.C.

“A lot of our closest friends don’t live geographically near us in general, except for this time of year,” said Payne.
