Olivia + Luke | Simple and Elegant at Hidden Vineyard
Olivia and Luke’s wedding day was a celebration rooted in simplicity, family, and the serene beauty of our venue, the Hidden Vineyard Wedding Barn in Berrien Springs, Michigan. They opted for a style that allowed the natural surroundings to shine, creating an elegant and intimate atmosphere. From the closeness of family gatherings to cocktails under the open sky, their wedding captured the essence of a beautifully unhurried day.
The morning began in our bridal suite, where Olivia and Luke gathered with their family for a few cherished moments together. Laughter, hugs, and a few joyful tears flowed, capturing the depth of their bond and setting a heartfelt tone for the day. This intimate start reminded everyone of what truly matters—family, love, and togetherness—and created a beautiful foundation for the celebration ahead.
Olivia and Luke’s ceremony took place under our beloved Ceremony Tree, the Catalpa Tree —a spot known for its natural beauty. With its sprawling branches, the tree made the perfect backdrop, and they kept the décor simple to let its charm shine through. A few understated floral touches complemented the scene, allowing everyone to take in the peaceful surroundings. The simplicity of the setup made the ceremony feel intimate and authentic, keeping all eyes on the couple as they exchanged their vows.
Following the ceremony, guests made their way to the barn’s deck and lawn for cocktail hour. Olivia and Luke kept things relaxed, adding comfortable seating and some yard games. Guests could enjoy their drinks, mingle, and soak in the late afternoon sun. It was one of those moments where time seemed to slow down—a perfect way to unwind before the evening festivities.
As the sun dipped lower, Olivia and Luke welcomed their guests inside the barn for dinner, toasts, and dancing. The barn’s warm, rustic vibe—with its wooden beams and soft lighting—created a cozy space that felt inviting for everyone. They added just enough twinkling lights and simple centerpieces to elevate the space without taking away from the barn’s natural charm.
Olivia and Luke’s wedding was a masterclass in simplicity, letting the natural beauty of the Hidden Vineyard Wedding Barn take center stage. Their photographer, Carin Weston, captured this beautifully with a film-inspired, vintage style that brought warmth and nostalgia to each image.
