Micro-Weddings at The Estate at Moraine Farm

“Micro-wedding,” “minimony,” intimate gathering….whatever you call it, these small events were packed with huge feelings.  Many couples’ wedding plans were sadly changed as the pandemic hit in 2020. While we look forward to days when we can gather in larger numbers, we were so  honored to be a part of many couples’ intimate small weddings.

Here is a glimpse into Caroline & Tony’s wedding.

The Estate at Moraine Farm in Late Spring Bloom

Elissa & Scott were married in early June at The Estate at Moraine Farm.  Much of the landscape was beginning to bloom and Elissa and Scott took advantage of all the beautiful backdrops the property has to offer.   From the Wenham Lake views to the tea house to the plethora of gardens,  their photographer, Deborah Zoe, captured absolutely exquisite snaps of their special day.  Stunning floral by Karla Cassidy Designs enhanced all the natural beauty of The Estate at Moraine Farm.  Scroll down to view and enjoy some of the highlights.  Best wishes Elissa & Scott!

The ceremony took place on the lawn facing Wenham Lake.

As Elissa and Scott made their way back to the tent, guests found their seat via wedding favors labeled with their name and table number.  Guests enjoyed a sumptuous dinner comprised of Red Wine-Apricot Braised Short Ribs and Seared Faroe Island Salmon.
