2:00 pm · Bridal Suite & Groom’s Retreat
Getting ready
The day starts indoors: a bright bridal suite for the bride and her party, a groom’s retreat with a bar and a billiards table for the guys.
Our story
A bride’s venue closed months before her wedding. So her family built her one.
In the spring of 2015 the groom and his father-in-law-to-be moved 25 tons of flagstone, laid a checkerboard dance floor, raised a pergola and a stone hearth, and cleared a meadow under the cottonwoods. An Amish craftsman built twelve-foot cathedral windows for the altar. The first wedding was theirs, in July. Every couple since has walked the same flagstone aisle.
