Michelle & Paul

November 4, 2018 – Zingerman’s Cornman Farms in Dexter

Wedding Story

Michelle and Paul’s Zingerman’s Cornman Farms wedding couldn’t have been a more cozy day that was full of love!

From the first moment I talked with Michelle, I knew that we were going to hit it off! She has such a warm personality and you could tell from how she talked about Paul that he was such an important part of her life. The same could be said of Paul and his love of Michelle! Importance of family is also a huge part of who they are as a couple. This awesome couple took the time during their reception to personally greet and thank every guest for attending their wedding. Michelle and Paul put so much thought and care into their wedding details to create a wonderful experience for their guests.

Ceremony:

Their November wedding took place at the beautiful Zingerman’s Cornman Farms in Dexter, Michigan. It was the perfect fall day; not too cold, overcast skies, still some color on the trees and leaves rustling around in the breeze. Michelle and Paul read their vows in front of the iconic white farmhouse. It was such a cozy scene as their guests snuggled up with navy monogrammed blankets. After the ceremony, cocktails and appetizers were served lower level of the historic red barn. Signature drinks included the bride’s favorite; mulled wine and a grumpy own man (bourbon, lime and ginger ale) for the groom. Guests also enjoyed lawn games and some special visitors; goats!

Reception & Beyond:

A custom wooden mirrored seating chart guided guests to tables. All of the tables were named after the bride and groom’s favorite ballparks. Paul and Michelle’s dinner took place in Zingerman’s reception tent adorned with bistro string and Edison bulb lighting. Their deep navy and burgundy color palette was enhanced by their wheat and fall floral centerpieces. Guests dined on delicious entrees of salmon, farro and roasted chicken in an intimate candlelit atmosphere. Zingerman’s Bakehouse created a birch tree inspired naked cake for our couple adorned with a vintage red truck cake topper. The cake topper also resembled one that the groom’s grandfather had owned. The Block Party kept the dance floor packed for the rest of the night. The evening wrapped up with a s’mores bar, cake slices and cocktails to enjoy during dance breaks.

Congratulations Paul and Michelle; your wedding day was magical!
