Best Venue Ever!!

We had our wedding here two weeks ago and everything went perfectly!! We had nothing but compliments on how beautiful and unique the property is. One of the biggest reasons we chose this venue was because of the perfect mix of indoors and outdoors. I also loved how we had access to the cottage for getting ready, it made the day run so smoothly. HUGE shoutout to Andrea, our day wouldn't have been the same without her amazing planning. She was there for us every step of the way when it came to the planning process, the rehearsal and to the day of. Also big thank you to our decorator, Elizabeth and our bartender, Brittany. We would highly recommend Cedar Valley Forest to anyone getting married!!

The Best Service You Can Find!!

Working with Jill, Kenna, and Andrea to create our dream wedding was like talking shop with your organized best friend, it just felt natural and so easy to do. The provided assets made setup on the wedding day a breeze and having Kenna as our day of coordinator really helped our special day go off without a hitch. We couldn't be more happy with the service that we received and can't help but recommend them to anyone that is looking for a beautiful wedding venue with an amazing staff!

The venue was spectacular -- and the staff was wonderful!

I would definitely recommend Cedar Valley Forest as a wedding venue. It is top notch! They kept us on track with planning checklists, and were available to answer any questions before the event. I would also recommend their "Day Of" Coordinator --- it helped the day run seamlessly. A bonus is all of the decor they have available to choose from. We were able to easily put together the look we were wanting from their selections!
5 STAR DAY!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
