  Our wonderful, chaotic day.

  Me and my now wonderful husband got married. On 10/4/2023, the day was chaotic and had hiccups that every bride runs into. But John and Julie smoothed it over and saved the day.
  It was wonderful and beautiful and so relaxed. They made you feel like family and offer the shirts off their back if needed.
  You can tell that they clearly love what they do and offer to stay in contact even now that the wedding is over.
  
  And they are the reason that our forever gets to start on the perfect foot. They were there every step of the day, making sure your needs, wants and sanity stayed in place.
  
  We can't thank them enough for everything that they did everything they have done, and everything they will do for those in the future.
  If you get a chance to at least tour the venue, I highly recommend it.
  
  You will not even consider or look at
  another,
  
  It's so gorgeous and so perfect. Thank you, John and Julie for everything you have done for the Stricklands. ❤️

  The most beautiful day!

  My son was married here in Oct and it was a wonderful experience. I was not too involved in planning but when I did have a question, Julie responded right away! The day was flawless. The use of the two lovely homes for our out of town and elderly family was so helpful and made the day easy. I come from the east coast right outside NYC and I have seen my share of weddings for 50,000 dollars plus. This was so fresh and beautiful it puts those to shame in many ways. I know it wasn't supposed to be a copy of those weddings but still, we all had the best time! Everyone of the guests raved about the venue and many wished they had known about Little Piney before. Bravo to John and Julie for their professional dedication to making all work so well! P.s. the fact that the couple have such a variety of choices to make with decorations on site, and great bartenders, staff, and the use of any caterer you wish was remarkable.

  Amazing venue, even better people

  John and Julie are the most kind and helpful people you will ever meet and help to plan your wedding. Obviously the venue is immaculate from the Fest Haus, Pavillion, Gazeebo to the two cabins provided. We had so many compliments on the venue and how peaceful and beautiful it was. John and Julie communicated with us throughout every step and were trouble shooting potential issues days before the wedding to insure we had the best wedding day. I can't say enough about them and how awesome they are. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a venue!

  Most beautiful wedding ever!

  Beautiful venue and we had the most wonderful experience here. We had to plan our wedding from a few states away, and we booked this place sight-unseen after doing a virtual meeting with Julie and John. They're wonderfully accommodating, responsive, and so caring. The venue has spaces for the ceremony, cocktail hour, indoor reception, and outdoor reception without guests having to travel. They also have "magic closet" with a ton of decor options; we did all of our centerpieces from there and saved a lot of money on florals while still looking gorgeous and professional. Best of all, you get the venue from Friday night through Sunday morning, and there are two separate cabins with three bedrooms each for the bridal party. They even include bonfires on Friday and Saturday nights! They are also extremely attentive; it began to threaten rain about 30 minutes into my reception, and they automatically moved everything under the pavilion and setup the DJ underneath a tent without our having to ask. I could not have asked for a better wedding experience, and recommend them enthusiastically!

  Memorable Wedding Venue

  I cannot say enough positive things about Little Piney, our wedding venue was everything I ever wanted for a dreamy, whimsical, outdoor wedding. So many guests told us they had never been to such a unique venue and complimented us on how well-planned our day was. John and Julie are a dream. They helped everything run so smoothly from making sure a poker surprise for the groomsmen was set up, to loaning us some butter, driving us around the property on golf-carts, locating my extra pair of shoes, and bringing us appetizers from the cocktail hour when we were hungry after all the pictures. The best part was that we were able to rent the venue for Friday-Sunday and the wedding party could stay on-site with us, making it an enjoyable weekend with friends and family instead of simply being a one-day event. They really emphasize how low-stress they want everything to be. We ended up booking them again after our 2021 wedding date was postponed due to the pandemic because we couldn't let go of such a beautiful venue. They have 3 locations for your wedding (a gazebo, a pavilion, and a barn), and are very accommodating in case the weather changes. They allow you to bring in your own caterer/bartender and bring your own alcohol, which helped us keep those costs down. They are the perfect venue for a diy couple. Book them now, you won't regret it.

  Best kept secret in MO!

  So not only is the entire venue stunning, complete with private quarters for wedding parties, a beautiful ceremony spot, a spacious reception area, and a lovely little pond, but the owners are also INCREDIBLE to work with. They made my job so much easier, and their kiddos were so helpful the entire day. Little Piney Lodge is one of the best venues I've ever worked at, and I can't wait to come back!

  A Magical Wedding Venue

  The staff at Little Piney were absolutely wonderful and amazing to work with. We booked this venue almost two years prior to our wedding, and they took care of us throughout that entire time. Any time we had a question or concern, they were right on top of it, and always responded so quickly. They truly made sure that we had an amazing day and did everything to make sure we didn't have any hiccups. The venue was gorgeous and magical, and Little Piney will always hold a special place in our hearts.

  Perfect location, even better service

  Going to see the venue, I was a bit nervous — it was a bit outside our price point. But let me tell you, one of the best decisions my husband has ever made (besides marrying me, of course), was to push us toward this venue. John and Julie are such wonderful, loving people. They worked with us through all the nagging questions, the changes, the "oh gosh, why are we having a wedding during a pandemic" nerves. They were a dream to work with, and the venue is just as beautiful as their hearts. We brought in less than a hundred dollars of our own decor because the magic closet had almost everything we needed. And the area is so gorgeous that it doesn't need much to give it that magic touch. John and Julie even let my husband and I hang out on the dock the morning after, so we could spend our first morning as a married couple praying together and taking in the beauty around us. We have absolutely adored our experience!

  Unbelievably amazing

  If you are looking for a venue that literally is there for you every single step of the way, who is willing to go above and beyond, then you need to go to Little Piney! I cannot day enough amazing things about this place!! The owners, John and Julie, were their for us every single moment we needed us and even when we didn’t need them; they came to check on us and make sure that everything was perfect! We had a few little hiccups, where my dad was staying down town, started flooding and my wedding dress was there, and Julie offered to go there and pick it up for me!!! That’s going above and beyond!!! But she offered with zero hesitation. Y’all - book your wedding here! It’s the PERFECT place!! I can’t wait to go back and visit!

  Simply Perfect.

  Words cannot describe how much I love and adore Little Piney Lodge and John and Julie. This was the most amazing venue and we looked at A LOT! We found Little Piney online and immediately fell in love, sent an email, and scheduled a tour for that week. When we took our tour, I was in tears because it was everything I didn’t know I wanted. We signed on the dotted line…before we were even engaged! About a month after we booked LP, we went back for another tour with some of our family and I was surprised when my then boyfriend got down on one knee and asked me to marry him in the very place we were going to have our wedding. (We do things a little differently) My mind was blown and I had no idea how he had set this up…low and behold, John and Julie worked their magic and that was just the start of our amazing experience. John and Julie are not just the owners of this gorgeous venue, they are wedding coordinators, planners, decorators, and friends. For over a year I emailed and called them at all hours and they never once complained, told me to keep the questions coming, and gave the absolute best advice. We had LP from Friday morning until Sunday morning. When we arrived Friday morning, John was out doing things to prepare for our big day and Julie was right there asking me what I needed and helping me with everything I could possibly ask for. I was in constant contact with them all weekend and they gave us their undivided attention. While we were at our rehearsal dinner, they started a fire for the guys and made sure everything we had set-up looked perfect. On the day of, Julie checked in with us regularly, drove us around for pictures, and gave me her coat and gloves when she saw I was cold. After the wedding, we were bombarded with compliments on the wedding and how beautiful LP was. Little Piney Lodge is a gorgeous venue, has everything you are looking for and more, and an amazing family to come with it. If you’re thinking about Little Piney, don’t hesitate because you’ll miss out on having one of the most important days of your life made perfect by John and Julie.

  Fairytale wedding experience!

  The owners went above and beyond to make our day go as smoothly as possible! They were there every step of the way and the venue is so beautiful. The fest haus is very romantic along with the gazebo overlooking the lake. Absolutely great people to work with!

  So happy we chose Little Piney!

  Little Piney was the absolute best venue we could have imagined choosing as the setting for our special day. The owners of this venue are incredible people that have created an oasis for a smooth-flowing event. Little Piney is truly a breathtaking backdrop for all of our photos that we will cherish for a lifetime. I knew the moment I came to see this venue that it was ‘the one’ and it far exceeded our expectations. The value provided in this venue is unmatched in price and quality. To be able to hold our rehearsal dinner, ceremony and reception all in the same was extremely unique and made things so seamless. My husband and I would recommend this venue over and over and would give 10 stars if we could!

  The hospitality, kindness, generosity, and support John and Julie have is remarkable! The venue was beautiful and sold itself alone, but having such a wonderful team to help you along the way beyond meets all expectations! Leading up to the wedding day, I was the typical bride - worried something would go wrong, stressed the weather would not hold out, and thinking it was all going to be unorganized and chaotic. However, the moment I got to the property on Friday afternoon, I immediately was overwhelmed with such calmness. It was the strangest feeling (especially because I am so Type A when it comes to planning parties/events), but vibe at Little Piney quickly becomes contagious. The beautiful property along side John and Julie's calming personalities makes it so easy to know right away that everything is going to be okay and whatever happens they got it. Julie told my husband and I so many times that she will take care of anything we need and her and John fell nothing short of that. The weather held out last minute for us and they were quick to more the cocktail to the barn and the reception to the pavilion without hesitation or issues. I have no idea how they do it all! So many of our family and friends told us during the wedding and weeks after that it was the best wedding they have ever been to and I know that none of that would have been possible without John and Julie. I honestly have no idea if anything went wrong the day of because they took care of all the logistics and issues that probably did come up. They let my husband and I focus only on enjoying our day together with the people we love most. We want to relive this day over and over again because it was absolutely perfect. Thank you so much John and Julie for making the day our dream.

  Little Piney is a dream! I could write and novel on how great my husband and I's experience was! John and Julie are absolutely amazing to work with! They are so friendly, have so much hospitality, caring, professional, always thinking of the bride and groom, have such attention to detail...the list could go on and on! When my husband and I first got engaged I somehow came across this quaint venue, booked a tour and fell in love! I knew it was the place I wanted to get married at. John and Julie made the planning process as easy and as stress free as possible. I was able to contact Julie whenever I had a question, idea, or something worrying me. Julie and I discussed the decorations for the big day, and we bounced ideas off of each other. It was great that they had a closet with decorations in it that every bride is able to use; saved me money on buying or renting decorations! The weekend of the wedding was as relaxing as it could get. We were able to check into the venue Friday morning, and stayed overnight at the lodging on the property. I didn't feel rushed at all the next morning when waking up to get ready, I was able to really take the whole day in and stop and smell the roses. There was no rush for us to be off the property that evening since we were staying overnight. One thing that I loved was no cell phone service! I was able to disconnect and enjoy every moment, plus I didn't have to worry about seeing guests on their phones instead of celebrating our marriage. All our guests were in awe of how beautiful the property was. I envisioned an elegant and simple wedding, which turned out better than I could have imagined! John and Julie helped throughout the entire day of the wedding. They checked on Cole and I to make sure we were happy, and if we needed anything. They went above and beyond what is expected of venue owners. Cole and I were blown away with how amazing the weekend was, and can't thank John and Julie enough!

  Ok I don't even know where to start! I'm so happy i picked Little Piney to be my venue, it was only the second one I looked at but I knew right away it was the perfect place It was one of the most beautiful and peaceful places I have ever been and having it for the whole weekend felt like a little destination wedding it was so fun to just relax and hangout with our friends for the weekend and not have to go from place to place . All of my guest couldn't say enough how beautiful and perfect Little Piney was. The Owners John and Julie are the nicest people and I'm am so thankful for all their help with everything, they where very quick to respond to my texts and emails and when i needed to go and see the place ( and i did a lot) they always had time to let me in. I am still in shock with how perfect the night went since i am not a very organized person and I didn't have a wedding planner but John and Julie made sure everything came together! They are amazing, Little piney is amazing! If you want your wedding to be perfect book Little Piney!

  There is just so much that I could say about Little Piney Lodge.. I don't know if I will ever be able to stop. I'll start with Jon and Julie. From the beginning they were kind and helpful and I knew from the moment I met THEM that this was going to be our venue. Little Piney Lodge is beyond beautiful on it's own but knowing that we would be fully taken care of by Jon and Julie really sealed the deal. They make it very clear that they are all about you having a relaxing, amazing day and that they will do everything in their power to make sure that happens. And guess what folks, they do just that. We booked them a year and a half out and they were available when I had questions and always responded quickly. One of the best parts about this venue is that when you reserve it (on a Saturday), it is yours from Friday at 11 until Sunday at 11.. and I can NOT tell you how much easier that made everything. We could bring everything in and set up on Friday and then JUST CHILL on Sat until we had to start getting ready. Jon and Julie were raring to go when we arrived and helped us set up and figure out where everything goes, so on and so fourth. She and Jon, along with our amazing coordinator, 100% made our day the most amazing it could have possibly been. There are so many ways that they went above and beyond for us.. I will never forget them. I will cry right now I swear.. :)

  I could write a novel on how much I loved Little Piney. I would get married here again in a heartbeat. It was absolutely stunning, my guests couldn’t stop raving about the beautiful scenery and venue, and John and Julie were so kind and accommodating. They helped wherever they could, and my guests loved their hospitality. I loved the fact that we could stay from Friday at 11 AM to Sunday until 11 AM. It really took the stress out of running around frantically for one day, trying to set everything up. We had our set-up, rehearsal dinner, ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, and after-party all at Little Piney, and because they have so many different areas for you to customize your wedding and where you want to have it, for most of those events we were in a different part of the venue each time. It was simply amazing. My day was stress free and is now one of the best memories of my life, which is something I don’t think a lot of brides can say because the day usually is so stressful! I would recommend 100 times over.

  John and Julie have been absolutely amazing since the first time I went out on the property to take a look. They have been very accommodating and always answer all of my silly questions. I can't wait to have my wedding there!
  
  POST WEDDING UPDATE:
  The day couldn't have gone any better! From what I was told set-up went well, and me and my girls even arrived early since the hair didn't take as long as expected and they still let us go and walk the reception hall. John and Julie were always there to make sure the day went perfectly, which it did! It was great communication all the way up until the day of the wedding. They were also very flexible with us by letting us have our dog on the property with us and let us have a little morning after brunch for our out of town guests on the property. All of our guests were WOWed by the beauty of the venue.

  Little Piney Lodge is located about 7 miles north of Hermann, MO...about 1.5 hours from St. Louis. It is an easy drive and the venue is awesome. Owners John & Julie make you feel special. One thing we liked is that you rent the whole wedding facility so you have access to outdoor, covered outdoor and indoor facilities. If the weather changes (good or bad) they can adapt within about a half hour. They have a list of vendors (not exclusive) to get you started on your search. The venue is in a rustic setting but the facilities are very nice and very affordable. They exceeded our expectations and our daughter and her new husband were thrilled! (Note: Sunday wedding)
