Below are details from Samantha & Donovan’s Cherry Basket Farm wedding, as written by the bride.
“Growing up in MI, Donovan & I have always looked forward to Fall. It’s the time of year when we get to go to the apple orchard for fresh cider & donuts, take nice long drives to explore the countryside & cozy up in plaid throws!
After searching the midwest for the perfect venue we stumbled upon The Cherry Basket farm in Omena, MI (only five hours North from our hometown). We, including our sheepdog, Otis, fell in love with every aspect of the venue at first sight. We wanted our guests to get an entire “fall weekend” experience during our wedding weekend. Driving to the venue you couldn’t help but get butterflies in your stomach while passing rolling green hills, birch trees with falling yellow leaves & pops of orange & vibrant reds.
To get to the ceremony site you walked down a hill, through a field & sat down on a hay bale with a vintage throw to keep warm. There were cups of cider & donuts for refreshments & a copy of “our story” which acted as the programs. In our story we included details of personal adventures from our 9 year relationship & travels around the world together.
Favorite memory-
Saying our vows was my favorite memory from our wedding (the bridesmaids & I were all barefoot). It was so magical looking around at the beautiful farm, seeing 70 of our closest friends & family & hearing the bagpipes in the distance. I noticed Donovan was wearing the tie clip I bought him after our engagement with the latitude & longitude of where we got engaged (Rock Creek, Montana); I touched it & he smiled so big… I could see everything from our relationship rush through both of our heads at the same time. Such a surreal moment.
Random fact-
Shockingly one of the first things we crossed off our list was finalizing the menu. Food was a very important detail to us. We had all of our favorites and everything was local/farm to table. Starting with the most delicious pumpkin soup of all time! “ -Samantha
