Some of our favorite locations throughout the property include:

  • The peaceful tree-lined pathways
  • The gardens filled with seasonal flowers
  • The pond overlooking the farm
  • The rustic red barns
  • The modern Carriage House patios
  • Golden hour portraits across the open fields

No matter where you turn, there is beautiful natural light and a timeless backdrop.

Favorite Moments from the Day


One of our favorite parts of the day was photographing the bride surrounded by her bridesmaids before the ceremony. Their bright dresses, joyful laughter, and colorful bouquets perfectly captured the excitement of the morning.

The reception was equally memorable. Guests gathered beneath the covered patio where long farmhouse-style tables were dressed with colorful florals, taper candles, and elegant place settings. The combination of rustic architecture and refined details created an atmosphere that felt both relaxed and elevated.

As the evening continued, friends and family celebrated together under the string lights—a perfect ending to an unforgettable Michigan summer wedding.
