Serendipity Farm & Vine, owned and operated by Amy, is an absolutely wonderful venue to host a wedding or any other special event. Our daughter's wedding was on Sept 10th, 2022......hosting approximately 185 guests. The original plan was to have the ceremony outside in their beautifully manicured landscape & trees. During the morning and early afternoon set-up process, the skies were clear with a 'slight chance of rain' coming in around 7pm. Well, being we live in Kansas, a gentle rain came in at 4pm instead, which was 1 hour before the ceremony was to start at 5pm.
Game time decision was made at 4:15, and Amy and her incredible crew were able to completely reset the ceremonial venue from outside to inside the property's main barn. This included all the chairs (organized and wiped down), the alter, the flowers...everything! It looked amazing!!! Plus, the ceremony still started at 5:10pm. The guests that were not able to be seated on the main floor where able to view the ceremony from the upstairs balcony of the barn...so all 185 guests were still able to view the vows. This made the wedding ceremony far more intimate for the Bride, Groom, wedding party, both families, and the guests. What else could you ask for in a wedding? Needless to say, Serendipity was able to turn what could have been a disaster into a wedding event that exceeded all our expectations. We cannot thank you enough!
The idea of wedding photos nestled in the tree line, flower garden, and vineyards didn't quite work out as planned. However, Serendipity's physical structures (inside and outside) made for other incredible photos. Plus, the pics of the wedding party with Serendipity's clear umbrellas are really special, as they captured the beauty of the moment...and show that even unplanned weather cannot derail the excitement of our wedding event. The Bride's family (Mom, Dad, Bride, and Brother), we toured at least six other wedding venues to find the special place. Serendipity was our first stop and it set the high bar for the others to beat...and they all fell short.
Beyond the wonderful amenities, scenery, staff, service, etc... Serendipity is able to deliver, our daughter (the Bride) shared one more personal detail in the selection of this venue. She shared that her (and her now husband) wanted the wedding to be somewhere that can be visited over and over again later on so those treasured memories can always stay close to their hearts (so sweet). With Serendipity's public tasting room, She Shed barn, and BnB, it provides options that none of the other wedding event 'spaces' can offer. This is because they are event venues only and don't offer the 'come back and see us again' functional hospitality.
We always look forward to going to Serendipity for a bottle...or two...of wine to enjoy with family and friends. Plus, we now have a few more reasons to reminisce about the unbelievable effort Serendipity was able to pull off to enable our incredible wedding event...even with questionable weather. Thank you Amy (and staff) from the bottom of our hearts! We always look forward to hanging out at Serendipity and seeing you.
Sincerely,
The Wright's
