Sara & Jordan

Real Wedding Stories

August 19, 2023- Cornman Farms in Dexter

Wedding Story

Summer weddings never looked so good and felt so right! Sara and Jordan’s wedding day was an extension of hospitality and highlighted the love they have for their guests. The couple wanted an effortless day to mingle and spend time with their loved ones and it was perfect.

Ceremony

Guests arrived via shuttles to the beautiful ground of Zingerman’s Cornman Farms in Dexter, Michigan. As the guests walked across the lawn, they came upon the historic white farmhouse. Colorful floral arrangements lined the stairs to the porch along with a natural wood chuppah. The ketubah chosen by the couple was equally as colorful and unique. Loud cheers erupted as Jordan smashed the glass and the couple kissed!

Cocktail Hour

Then guests enjoyed drinks and delicious appetizers, lawn games and baby goat mingles during the outdoor cocktail hour. (Milly and Tilly are the cutest!) Throughout the evening, guests could also take instant photos and write messages in the couple’s photo book. It was so much fun seeing how everyone was documenting the day!

Upon entering the reception tent for dinner, colorful bud vases filled the space with such bright and happy feelings. Texture, depth and a rainbow of colored bud vases designed by Sparrow Bloom Co. adorned the tables. Table numbers were associated with childhood photos of Sara and Jordan from age 1 to 13. It was so neat to watch everyone go around the room and look at them. Dinner was a communal experience with delicious family style dishes prepared by Cornman Farms.

Reception & Beyond

A beautiful August day slowly turned into a stunning sunset as dinner ended and guests took in the evening air. Sara and Jordan cut into their bright blue cake surrounded by flowers from Zingerman’s Bakehouse. It even held a mini figurine of their pup, Reuben, hidden amongst the blooms. Everyone headed upstairs to a transformed dance floor. Silver and rose colored disco balls hung from the ceiling and a flower-lined stage border for the band stage. Bluewater Kings Band the group in, as Jordan described, “a wild Hora” and packed that dance floor.

Congratulations and much love!
