Blooming Hill Farm

Blooming Hill Farm was the first and only venue we looked at for our wedding, and we couldn't have made a better choice. We had the pleasure of working with Caitlin and Kate throughout our planning process, and both were absolutely incredible to work with. They made our wedding planning go so smoothly, and we were amazed by the attention to detail they brought to all our planning calls. They were able to provide so much guidance and had such great recommendations for local vendors. When the weather forecast started looking rainy the week of, Kate was so comforting - walking us through the rain plan, keeping us in the loop on all rain plan decisions, and keeping everyone's spirits high. Even with the rain on our wedding day, the venue was somehow even more beautiful. Getting to hear the birds chirping and rain falling throughout the ceremony was absolute magic, and the staff was so quick with umbrellas on hand that no one had to worry about getting wet.
The food and drinks were absolutely incredible - all our guests agreed that it was the best meal they've ever had at a wedding, and people were able to try everything since they offer family style dinners. We did bring a few rentals in, and Kate coordinated with those vendors as well as our band and photographer so that we hardly had any logistics to worry about during the wedding weekend. We truly cannot say enough positive things about BHF, Kate, and the whole team - and we're so happy that we can keep coming back for meals at the restaurant!!

My now-husband and I will never be over our wedding at Blooming Hill Farm. It will be hard to condense all the gushing I want to do into a succinct review, but I'll try. I remembered seeing pics of the farm and thinking it looked cool, but visiting in person last August was a gamechanger. It's so magical in person - beautiful blooms everywhere, the little babbling brook, the dreamy cocktail barn, the general views. My partner, who was in London at the time, had joined via FaceTime and even over the phone he knew immediately after that it was the one. We knew we wanted to get married when the farm was exactly as we saw it, so did our wedding toward the end of August. We lucked out with absolutely beautiful weather and it made for an unforgettable day.

In addition to loving on the space ('gorgeous' was used a lot), our guests couldn't stop raving about the food (no surprises here, BHF is a working farm with a popular farm-to-table restaurant). Without a doubt, the best wedding food we've ever had. The tasting was a highlight :) In addition to all of this, rather than having to separately source and pay a kajillion dollars for all of the linens, tables, etc, this is all included and BHF works with you to execute your vision to a T. The reception tent was sneakily one of the most beautiful parts of our wedding day - I couldn't stop ogling everything. Special shoutout to Nadine, BHF's florist who worked with our non-existent knowledge of flowers and delivered an absolute dream setting.

Finally, I've fully been burying the lead because on top of all this, the ultimate perk of doing your wedding at Blooming Hill Farm is you get to work with a coordinator like our girl Kate - who we are still not ready to say goodbye to. While we experienced light concern from a few folks over not hiring a planner, with Kate we never needed one. From the venue tour to detailed planning sessions to literally cueing us all down the aisle, she held our hand every step of the way and managed to be equally warm and fun while supremely on top of her shit (and ensuring we were on top of ours). She overdelivered in the way a stereotypically Type A wedding planner would, while managing to be...chill?! It truly felt like working with a friend. (WE LOVE YOU, KATE, PLEASE CALL US WHEN YOU'RE IN BROOKLYN?!?) The rest of the staff were also so notably warm, wonderful and on point as well. Truly, if there was a way to Black Mirror ourselves and relive this day over and over, we definitely would. Please have your wedding here, ok?

I cannot say enough good things about Blooming Hill Farm! From the stunning location, to the amazing staff, the incredible food, and the overall energy – everything was beyond what we could have dreamed of. We instantly fell in love with the beautifully curated, elegant farm setting. From the back field ceremony locations to the gorgeous white canvas, wooden-beam tent (and everything in between!), it was pure magic.
We actually said yes to BHF without even trying the food first—and wow, we are still getting compliments on it from guests almost a year later! The fresh, farm-to-table dishes were absolutely unforgettable.
The Staff:
We were so lucky to work with Kate as our point person. Wow—she was outstanding. Having worked in the wedding industry myself, I know how rare it is to find someone like her. The attention, care, and professionalism she brought before, during, and even after our wedding was such a relief. From countless emails and planning meetings to the weekend-of setup, Kate and her team handled everything with ease. She made our day so smooth and peaceful—I truly couldn’t imagine working with anyone else.
As a very DIY bride, I came in with lots of personal touches—guest book, memorial table, reception centerpieces, and more. Kate didn’t miss a beat. She and her team set everything up beautifully and brought my vision to life with so much care and thoughtfulness. I knew once I handed everything over, it was in the best possible hands.
Our day was perfect. I know so many people say that, but I wholeheartedly believe Kate and the BHF team played a huge role in making it so. I cannot recommend Blooming Hill Farm, the team, and especially Kate enough!

The best decision of my life was marrying my wife. The second best was choosing Blooming Hill Farm as our wedding venue. After struggling to find an affordable venue close enough to NYC (we live in Brooklyn, as do many of our friends) and accessible enough for out of town family and friends, I stumbled upon Blooming Hill Farm and everything changed. We immediately loved the pictures on their website, and their cost calculator was so helpful and actually ended up being completely accurate. We planned a visit and, though it was a rainy day in April, Caitlin gave us a tour and we were sold. We booked our wedding date at the end of the tour.

Over the next year and half, we had the pleasure of planning what our friends and family are now referring to as "the wedding of the century". Taylor was our day-of coordinator and we can't sing her praises enough. She was on top of everything, and it is clear that the whole BHF team knows what they are doing and enjoy working together. Throughout the planning process, she and Caitlin made us feel so prepared and listened to all of our visions and supported our choices wholeheartedly. Their attention to detail and the level of organization made me, admittedly a bit of a control freak, feel so safe and prepared.
BHF literally does everything: food (the best food I've ever had at a wedding), drinks, cake/dessert, florals, and all of the things that other vendors charge you an arm and a leg for (silverware, tables, chairs, napkins, etc.) We opted to use their in-house florist and that was absolutely the right decision for us. Neither my wife nor us really know a lot about flowers, but we provided some inspo photos and hoped for the best. The florist completely outdid herself. Our bridal bouquets were exactly what we wanted, so much so that we are in the process of pressing and drying some of the flowers to keep forever.

Dessert was another hit. We opted to use BHF's connection with The Cakery to provide cupcakes and cannolis for our dessert table, and everything was delicious. The Cakery also made our wedding cake (it is so beautiful) but we were having too much fun at the reception to cut the cake. We have no doubt that it will be delicious when we finally get around to trying it.

The venue itself is exactly what we wanted; a naturally beautiful outdoor setting with indoor spaces to hang out in when necessary. The ceremony site is a mystical little clearing with a gorgeous arbor that the venue provides (but only if you want it!) nestled among the trees and bushes. It was just perfect. The tent for the reception was set up so perfectly for a group of 135 guests and a 9-piece live band. The barn was where we did our first look and the photos speak for themselves: truly breath taking and exactly the right mix of rustic and cozy. There are so many cute little corners on the property which made the entire day feel beautifully surreal.

The area around the venue is perfect for weddings; many hotels that regularly work with BHF weddings to provide room blocks, awesome breweries for welcome parties, and lots of activities for out of town guests to do before/after the big day. All of these things can be found on BHF's comprehensive list of suggested vendors, hotels, and activities.

If you want to get married in a gorgeous location with unbelievably good food and incredible event staff, you have to pick Blooming Hill Farm. You will not be disappointed!

Where do we begin?! Blooming Hill Farm is THE place in the Hudson Valley to have a wedding. The grounds are downright gorgeous. Every corner of the farm is full of beautiful details that feel so organic and yet stylish. The ceremony space is dreamy, the cocktail hour barn is stunning, and the tent is magnificent. They have truly thought through all the details (like a campfire and s’mores!) and have curated a magical setting for weddings. Our guests were so impressed with such a unique location that reflects the natural beauty of the Hudson Valley.

Next, the food is delicious! This is not your typical wedding food. Their chef creates amazing menus inspired by what is growing in season right from the farm, with pretty much everything else sourced locally. Our guests were raving about how good the food was from cocktail hour through dinner, with pizza at the cocktail hour as a huge hit. We chose family style for dinner, and the food came out so quickly, all at the same time, and still hot! The bar selections are refined and high quality yet familiar.

The staff is attentive, organized and just incredible to work with. Kate was our coordinator and having her every step of the way was phenomenal. She is down to earth, very cool, and personable while also very organized, professional, and proactive. She went above and beyond to make our night special. In addition, the rest of the staff and bartenders were also always super friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable.

The experience of our guests was incredibly important to us, and we can confirm our wedding day was a seamless guest experience from the moment they arrived to the end of the night. Blooming Hill thinks of everything. We were blown away by the attention to detail, anticipation of needs, creative problem solving, and intentionality from Kate and her team. While we didn’t have a traditional wedding planner, it almost felt like we did with all the communication we got to have with Kate in the year leading up to our wedding. Overall, we feel that we got way more than our money’s worth by having our wedding at Blooming Hill. The value of what’s included in the venue fee (candles, linens, champagne toast, s’mores, other decor, etc.) saved us a lot of money while still having everything we wanted. We truly cannot recommend Blooming Hill Farm enough and we can’t wait to return for brunch!

We hosted our July wedding reception at Blooming Hill Farm and are thrilled to share that it was the best day of our lives! Long before our wedding, I visited Blooming Hill Farm’s market frequently as a kid with my family, and in adulthood, my now-husband and I enjoyed the wonderful food and hospitality of the restaurant. When we were figuring out how to make our wedding feel uniquely “us,” we knew Blooming Hill Farm had to be part of our special day in the Hudson Valley, and it was truly magical.

We will sing the praises of the exceptional farm-fresh food, Justin’s impressive beverage selection, the enchanting setting of the barn, grounds, and tent all day, but what we want to highlight for prospective brides and grooms is the incredible hospitality, professionalism, care, and organizational skills of Caitlin and her events team. Caitlin boasts an impressive resume from the food and hospitality industry, and her expertise was evident from the start of our wedding planning process. Thanks to her prompt communications, check in calls, a holy grail of all Google sheets, and attention to detail, we trusted her implicitly throughout the process and had no doubt she would give us a perfect wedding. We had some unique elements to our wedding (e.g. an off-site ceremony, wedding cake piñata, and only 6 months of planning time) and many allergies and dietary restrictions to accommodate, all which Caitlin navigated seamlessly for us. Caitlin and the entire BHF team absolutely delivered the wedding of our dreams, and a week later I tear up with joy just thinking about it.

Know that at Blooming Hill Farm you will feel so taken care of throughout the entire planning process and on your wedding day. Blooming Hill is unique and wonderful in that they provide so many items and services that are typically a la carte and not included at other venues: all tableware, food and beverage, an incredible tent with a built-in deck, decorated cocktail hour space, service staff, event set up, signage, table decor, and day-of-coordination services are part of all their packages. They can even coordinate with a brilliant in-house florist for you at a very reasonable additional cost (thank you for our gorgeous flowers, Nadine!). The entire staff is extremely kind, knowledgeable, and will give you an incredible day no matter what. You will be in the best hands in the biz for the best day of your life. If you are looking to host your outdoor wedding in the Hudson Valley, do yourself a favor: stop your search, and book Blooming Hill Farm!

We got married at Blooming Hill Farm in October and it was the perfect day! The venue is beautiful, unique and picturesque, but it’s the event staff that made our experience a dream come true. Kate and Taylor were our coordinators and hands down the best part of our experience. They made things run so smoothly on the day of, that my husband and I couldn’t believe how seamless everything was - we truly didn’t have to worry about a thing. They were so helpful and knowledgeable every step of the way, and always quick to respond to the countless questions we had throughout the process. The food was outstanding! We had such a fun tasting and selection process as well - and every dish turned out perfectly. Several of our guests mentioned it was the best food they’d had at a wedding. We did family style, too, which was really fun. Finally, we have to shout out Nadine who did our florals! We had one quick meeting, one phone call and I sent over a few inspiration photos and she absolutely nailed the look I wanted.

Taylor, our wedding coordinator went above and beyond to make the day perfect. Really thankful for her and the rest of the staff! The venue looked great and felt magical.

We are so glad to have picked Blooming Hill Farm (BHF) as our wedding venue! Our guests continued to rave about the venue and told us they all had a great time here! The farm is beautiful, magical, and feels like home to us. Working with Caitlin and the BHF staff has been so pleasant, organized, and wonderful- We loved how smooth everything was. We were happy with the flowers Nadine prepared for us. We gave her an idea of the colors we liked and Nadine was able to come up with a great selection - simple, tasteful, and vibrant. Being a more petite bride, Nadine was able to prepare the perfectly sized bouquet for me. We loved taking pictures throughout the property- it looks great from every angle. We also loved meeting the cats on the farm and were glad they were part of our day! Thoroughly enjoyed our wedding day here. Thank you so much BHF!

We knew Blooming Hill Farm was the ideal wedding venue for us after we first went there for brunch and tasted the food, but by every measure the farm and its staff exceeded our expectations and gave our guests a truly unique wedding experience that we're all still talking about months later. We got lucky with a perfect summer day in mid-September that truly made the farm come alive. The flowers and decor from Nadine were beautiful all throughout the ceremony site, the cocktail hour in the greenhouse, and the reception. The new wooden platform that housed the reception tent (which wasn't there when we first visited) made the dinner and dancing that much more fun, and we've had many guests tell us that it's by far the best food they've ever had at a wedding. The family style option was incredible and several of our friends are now looking for venues that offer the same. Caitlin and especially Kate were incredibly helpful with planning and day-of coordination, helping accommodate last-minute requests and doing everything they could to make sure the day was perfect for us. Overall we couldn't be happier with choosing BHF and will take any excuse we can get to go back there for brunches and dinners. The food, the staff, the vibes..they're all truly one-of-a-kind.
