space to mow between rows

Hi, we just bought a new home with a few nice open acres, so we will be planting rows of blueberries, blackberries and raspberries, with elderberries to follow. We will also be planting some fruit trees.

The field is quite soggy many times during the year, so I plan on building up the rows to keep the roots dryer.
My question is what spacing should I have between rows? I want to be able to drive either a 5' or 6' finish mower between the rows. so basically if I leave 6.5' between rows that would be good, but how wide should my beds be so that they don't overgrow into my rows and inhibit me from fitting the mower through.
Thanks
