One of the signature spaces at Heritage Prairie Farm are the outdoor ceremonies. With multiple locations to choose from, you can take advantage of the seasonal changes of the farm as your backdrop.
The pergola is available as an archway that you can decorate with florals or rented decor and is a great space for any traditional rituals that you may incorporate into your ceremony. Under the maple tree provides a shady space for the party and guests alike.
Take a look at some of our favorite outdoor ceremony photos in our series on Must Have Photos at Heritage Prairie Farm.
