Absolutely Country

Michelle was so friendly and easy to work with on our wants and needs for the venue. The venue was absolutely breathtaking and was exactly what we were looking for and the price is very reasonable and she was willing to accept installments if needed.

I wanted to take a minute and let everyone know how incredible this venue is! If you're looking for the perfect country rustic chic place to get married this is it! From day one, Michelle, the owner was kind enough to answer all of our questions and really help us tailor our big day to exactly what we wanted; she even stood in as a wedding day coordinator! The venue also provides a lot of "extras" that you wont find at any other venue. My husband and I couldn't possibly any happier with our decision to get married here! Our guests continually commented on how beautiful and peaceful the venue was and our families were so thankful for all of the help and warmth from the venue owner. I STRONGLY suggest you take the time to visit Absolutely Country and have your country wedding dreams come true here!

I loved this venue and the owner was so helpful in all aspects, even helping me budget and suggesting other vendors. She was an absolute joy to work with and my wedding day was absolutely gorgeous. I would recommend this to anyone. She even gave us a military discount due to my husband being active military!

I do NOT recommend this venue. I had my wedding here and I seriously regret it. My first few meetings with Michelle (the owner) were great! She was very nice and told us all the rules and there were only a couple of things not allowed, such as liquor without a liquor license and glass. As the time grew closer, I began to figure out that because I was having a Sunday wedding and got a cheaper price for doing so, I did not get treated the same way as other brides. The person having their wedding on Saturday got to have the venue already decorated and did not have to be out until 2am Sunday morning (my wedding day). Then Michelle said that I could not show up until 10am because she wanted to go to church. This left me only 6 hours to get everyone ready, everything decorated and ready (which did not happen). She had also promised help setting up, that did not happen either. As the time grew closer to the ceremony, she threatened to lock my dad out of the top gate at the driveway. My grandparents had got lost and my dad needed to go find them at the end of the street. She then told me if I was not ready on time, she would start the ceremony without me!! Really?? How do you plan on starting the ceremony without the bride!!! Therefore, my hair and makeup were rushed and were not to my liking. When my dad and I were walking down, Michelle was behind me and ended up in everyone of my photos. This would have been okay except the attire she was wearing was no pleasing. She had on green khaki cargo pants and a purple spaghetti strapped shirt that her "womanly features" were showing through the front. I received many complaints from my guests. They were also made to park in the grass instead of the promised gravel lot. So the second it began to sprinkle, nearly all my guests left because they did not want their cars getting stuck in her yard that you need a four wheeler to navigate through. Please go somewhere else and enjoy your day unlike I did because of the venue.

We were very upset by Michelle's attitude with everything after we made the initial down payment. We talked to her about a couple of things and she okayed them and then went back on her word. She also made ugly comments to our guests that were from out of state and had gotten lost. She also told the bride that the wedding was starting without her if she did not start the very minute it was supposed to. Michelle the owner of Absolute Country ran around the whole afternoon and evening talking into a radio and disturbed our guests. Several guests commented on that she was not wearing a bra and that her breasts were visible. All in all a very disappointing experience. DO NOT BOOK YOUR SPECIAL DAY HERE.
