An Eclectic Boho Celebration in Dexter, Michigan: The Real Wedding of Clarissa Donnelly-DeRoven and Zak Witus

Both Clarissa and Zak love colors and the fall, so they wanted to be able to combine these things when it came time to plan their wedding. They ended up dreaming up a colorful, fall jewel-toned celebration that we can't get enough of! Their venue is what really solidified their vision for their big day. “We knew we wanted to do a fall wedding, and loved how Zingerman’s Cornman Farms really utilized how beautiful fall is in Michigan to their advantage. We loved how rustic it is and how we could use that to really make our vision for the day come true,” Clarissa shares. We admire the couples' choice of an outdoor wedding during the Michigan fall season and how it allowed their eclectic boho day to shine! To highlight the colors of the big day, Clarissa wore a simple yet elegant gown with ethereal long sleeves to keep out the autumn chill.

 

What We Love

Clarissa and Zak didn't have a traditional wedding party, but still wanted their loved ones to be a part of their special day. Clarissa shares, "We invited all of our closest friends to come to the farmhouse early on the day of the wedding to have brunch, mimosas, get ready together and take photos. We really wanted our friends to show up and engage with our day in a way that was most true to them."
