Rustic Elegance in Wedding at Maplehurst Farm

Minna and Matthew met at church; their shared values of faith and family inspired their love. The couple chose Maplehurst Farm for their wedding venue, embracing the rustic barn’s intimacy and serene setting. The sweet scent of rain and sugar maples infused their ceremony with serenity, while the color palette leaned into the hues of the dramatic fall foliage surrounding them.

Bridesmaids wore various shades of shimmering auburn and copper, as well as taupe and mauve. Groomsmen sported light apricot-colored ties. Matthew donned a boutonnière to match Minna’s bouquet of peach- and coral-hued dahlias, classic white roses and scabiosa. Despite the fall chill, guests remained cozy in the barn, enjoying a hearty ramen bar and joyful sounds of worship music.

The bride and groom wowed guests with a choreographed first dance before sharing a private moment together, treasuring their first time alone as newlyweds. The pair wrote personalized notes to every guest and gifted them memorabilia from their favorite travels as favors. A guest book full of vintage postcards for family and friends to sign was a final, heartfelt touch that completed this enchanting celebration. —Diane Meyer
