From the living area looking towards the back is the kitchen area then beyond that is the bathroom. We took a vintage door that was originally pulled out of the farmhouse and made it into a trolley door for the bathroom. This allowed the door mirror for prepping and with it being a trolley door it took up less space. And who doesn't like the look of all of that trolley hardware? With the door open, it showcases the beautiful vintage mirror attached to the wall of the bathroom. This mirror came off of an old vanity desk. If you know
Our 2018-2019 winter project was to build a tree-house honeymoon suite.
We have lodging options in our farmhouse and in our Mimi Guest House, but we wanted a special option for our bride and groom's. Though we embrace the "farmhouse-vibe" both at our farm and with our other lodging options, we wanted to take it with a new twist with our new project. We envisioned a cute "mini-farmhouse cottage" style. The white outside walls, turned porch columns, long and skinny front windows, a cozy front porch, and a tin roof all SHOUT farmhouse.
The choices of the Groomsmen's Attire are virtually endless these days. There is always a consideration to blend the guys look with the bride/bridesmaids, but in a world of "rustic-chic" where you can mix simple or informal with elegance or vintage, you don't have to even be matchy-matchy.

The ceremony area is where the emphasis of the wedding day is reveal, and as each bride is different, let me go through a few ceremony backdrop ideas for you to consider.
The Arbor
The arbor is a traditional backdrop. Our arbor is a permanent one that is tucked around several river birch trees and others plus it has vines scaling all sides of it.
Ah, the cake table - one of the common traditions of a typical wedding. We have had a slew of very tasty and very beautiful wedding cakes this last year at the farm. Naked cakes are still a trend but many traditional looking ones as well.
