My *husband* and I were married at the Drakewood Farm September 21, 2019. From the moment we began planning with the Drakewood staff, to the very end of our wedding night, Chris and I were blown away at each step of the process because of these incredible people and their truly breathtaking venue. Our guests, who came from all over the country, are still gushing about so many aspects of our wedding day, including the ease with which the day unfolded, the beauty and décor of the ceremony and reception spaces, the delicious appetizers, dinner and wedding cake, and the extremely well organized and executed special moments that took place, such as toasts, our first-dance, and more. Prior to our big day, friends and family kept telling me and Chris to be sure to eat and take time for just the two of us to breathe and take in the magic. We didn't need to try very hard to do these things because LeeAnn and Heather were there to guide us every step of the way. They made sure we received full plates of food and time together, after pictures, to eat our first appetizers and share some cocktails. They directed our young nieces and nephews and all other participants in our wedding with patience and true hospitality. Our DJ, Justin, was a crowd favorite. The dance floor was never empty! We had a couple of elderly and handicapped guests who did not have to worry about getting around because a staff person was always there to drive them to and from different areas of the property. We had 175 guests at our wedding and the space never felt over-crowded or uncomfortable. Our friends and family are made up of so many different kinds of people: introverts, extroverts, partiers, talkers, walkers, dancers, and all of them (I really mean ALL of them) were more complimentary of our wedding at the Drakewood than we ever could have imagined! Chris and I highly recommend the Drakewood Farm and the amazing and gifted staff who plan the events held at this very holy and special place. It was truly a dream come true for us!

Best Decision Ever!
I can’t say enough good things about this venue and all of the staff. Our day was SO beautiful, perfect, and easy thanks to Drakewood. They took care of every single little detail imaginable. I had zero stress the day of the wedding and everything went perfect! All I had to focus on was marrying my love. If you're on the fence about choosing this venue, DO IT! You won’t regret it :)

Amazing place for a beautiful Wedding
Drakewood Farms was amazing as a wedding venue. Heather was our coordinator and she did an excellent job getting the exact vision I had in mind for the day. Everything went beautifully and if there were any issues I never heard about them. This location is an all inclusive venue who uses trusted vendors for catering, DJ, and cake. I believe they actually take care of the flowers themselves. The whole day was like my wedding pinterest board come alive! All the guests raved about the decorations, food, and cake. The DJ was great and kept the dance floor busy all night. I could not have asked for a better day for our wedding day!
An amazing Venue and wonderful staff. The property has such a great variety for wedding day photos and we love that it is tucked away just enough to be private but close enough to travel too.
