When we made reservations to use the farmhouse for the weekend of our daughters wedding, we were focused on lodging but what we experienced was an unforgettablue weekend, not only due to the event and people who came together but because this beautiful home, even when empty holds a strong sense of family and the value of being together. We had plenty of room for groups of people to cook food for the Rehearsal Dinner. The butler's pantry made it easy to find serving platters.
Each day started and ended on the porch, easing in and out of the day. In the meantime, it was a gathering place to work on wedding craft projects and floral arrangements.
The one bathroom was not a problem for our guest. The claw foot tub is easy to access with the added grip bar. One of my favorite experiences was using the outside shower. The fresh scent of jasmine while showering is truly a treat!
The farmhouse and grounds provided a beautiful backdrop for photos. I know some of the most cherished wedding photos will be from this Venue. The garden shed made the most magical backdrop for the bride and her family photos.
The home offered much more than a place to rest our heads at the end of the day, it provided the intangible qualities of making a wedding weekend a magical, memorable time for all of us. From the bottom of my heart, thank you Leigh and Trip for sharing your family home with us. I look forward to a return to the farmhouse next October!
